Two years ago the Lake County
Chamber of Commerce influenced
Henry Merrill to leave the Tarheel

East Coast Plans
New Equipments
and Line Extension
lRx Associated Pressl

Key West, April 1S.-The Florida
East Coast railway already is having
its hands full moving potatoes from
the Hastings district and other vege-
tables from the territory further
south, but the beginning of new
fast freight movement which will
further tax the capacity of the line
is under way. The first shipment OF
pineapples from Cuba has been for
warded from here and hundreds OF
carloads are expected to move north
within the near future. The Cuban
pineapple movement through Key
West this season is expected to
amount to 100000 crates.
The railroad within the last few
DAYS announced that it has placed an
order with the American Locomotive
company for three switch engines and
seven Pacific type engines for pas
senger and fast freight service, to be
built at the Richmond plant of the
company. 1t is understood the road
also in the near future will begin con-
struction of the line between Okee-
chobee and West Palm Beach, dis
lance of seventy miles. This would
give the Flagler system two routes
north between West Palm Beach and
New Smyrna and would greatly re-
lieve traffic congestion.

production of Miss Lulu Bett" all
the experience he has gained in the
great element of humanness, COM
bined with a personal touch not pos
sessed by any other director on the

Miss Lulu Bett' is a widely read
novel-it is so true to life that it
has been constantly cited as the most
inspiring novel of modern literature.
AS q play it stormed the hearts of
New Workers for an entire season
during it's run on Broadway. 1t won
the Pulitzer prize for being the best
American play. And in it's picture
form, it has been said, it follows the
novel more closely than any adapta-
ton ever made for the shadow art.
De Mile has always been noted for
his exceptional selection OF casts.
for the interpretation OF Miss Lulu
Bett'' he has chosen Lois Wilson,
Milton Sills. Theodore Roberts, Helen
Ferguson, Charles Ogle, Mabel Van
Buren,, May Giraci, Ethel Wales and
Clarence Burton. An imposing array
of talent, all will admit, and but an
other evidence of the genuine worth
of the attraction. In addition to the
feature picture, the Rialto is offering
a selected comedy, and the Interna-

Pauline Ford will be heard in new

sensus of opinion that in 'Dixie's

her every appearance brings down

troubled by too many in-laws, should
by all means see Wanda Hawley in
"Her Face Value" at Mauk's Colum-
bia theater today and tomorrow
This clever satire ON relations who
insist upon clinging TO their sons and
daughters even after marriage, is
taken from the Saturday Evening
Posts story THE Girl Who Paid
Dividends" and proves conclusively
that all young married things should
be left alone to work out their own
life plans.
Wanda Hawley as the chorus girl
heroine who attempts matrimony.
without first dislodging the family
leeches, who have always fed off her
generosity. is an appealing and de-
lightful figure throughout, even
though yon wish she would show a
little more firmness in dealing with
her shiftless father and brother who
have always imposed on her good
nature and continue to do so even af-
ter she marries, until they quite
effectively wreck her little dove
cote. The conclusion is unusual but
convincing. You leave the show ad-
mitting that in4laws should be al
lowed to live. but not with newly
weds. T. Roy Barnes plays. the part
of the young husband who has too
many in-laws and does the part TO
tee. A Snub Pollard comedy, Penny
in the Slot" Literary Digest Topics
and the Columbia orchestra are the
augmenting features.
