AL ST. JOHN HAS A NOVEL
COMEDY IN FOX GALL WET.

AL st. Johns first two reel special
comedy for fall release has been COM
pleted, according to an announcement
by the Fox Film Corporation. 1t is
called "All Wet" and a great part of
the action takes place under water.
This probably is the first time that
the comedy possibilities of under
water photography have been taken
advantage of to any great extent and
from all reports the experiment has
proved distinct success.
Al st. Johns experiences with vari-
Gus types of sea monsters, after his
home had been washed some distance
from the shore, is said to provide a
number of unusual comedy situations
for "All Wet" which should mark it
as one of the best special laugh-mak-
ers of the new season.
The comedy stars off where most
feature pictures end-on the hero and
heroines, wedding night. They spend
their honeymoon close to the sea-too
close in fact-and one morning they
arise to find various kind of sea-going
creatures making themselves at home
in every part OF the house.

was he thronged by the multitudes
merely that the ymight get a glimpse
of so odd a figure. "Tis neither. John
tells US the secret of this wonderful
preacher, 1t is in the fact that he was
"a man sent from God" He was Gods
man. Our lesson today takes us at
once to the heart of hi smessage.
Johns Message-The, main thoughts
of Johns preaching are: l. Make
ready for the coming of Jesus. 2. Re-
pentance is proved by reformation. 3.
Spiritual pride avails nothing. 4. Tue
repentance is ceasing from evil and
doing good in obedience to God. 5.
Announcement of Christ's coming. 6.
The two baptisms.

ming his sermon by addressing his
audience as a generation OF vipers,
as John did? This is the way John

we know nothing of the parentage OF
Elijah. Noon have been so brave to
rebuke since Elijah appeared before
Ahad. Now John flashes from the will
derness, and rebukes evil in high
places.
A Common Sense Religion John
was no mistic. He was no dreamer. He
preached a salvation that changed
mems lives. The soldiers, publicans
and selfish asked What shall We do?"
He spun no sophistries. The soldiers
were employed in police as well as
military duty. The three chief evils
of their profession .wer abuse of pow
er, blackmail and the demand for
booty. To these John conn anded DO
violence to no man, neither ccuse any
falsely and be content with your
wages" The publicans were tax gath
erers and had become very covetous
and dishonest. John puts a restraint
upon their special sin by saying, Eek
act no more than is required Of you"
Then to the selfish and well-off people
he commands a division with their
poorer neighbors. This message given
nearly 1000 years ago is still appro-
pirate today.
The Two Baptisms - There was no
jealousy in John. He was not eager
for fame. He was content to be Il
voice. He was content to prepare the
way for his Lord by calling men to
repentance and faith. This was his
mission but he rejoices that there is
greater than he, who's hould baptise
with the Holy Ghost and with fire. He
was willing to decrease and lead a
| wilderness life or feel the sword upon
his neck II his Lord might increase.
He rejoiced that the time was near at
hand when the multltudes whom he
had baptized could receive the bap-
tism OF the Holy Ghost. John declares
that he is not the Christ but that he
baptized only with water Tvs. i6) but

This is the remedy for our sin prob

John is that of an ak laid to the I'M

to pool their crops and become an
independent factor in the market
there is little hope of getting them
to learn the value of cooperation.
Necessity and adverse conditions
force the issue, and the growers
must stand together and safeguard
their rights, or they must fall sing
ly and signally.
In every field of endeavor men
are organized for their mutual in
terest. The great lesson comes home
to the cotton and tobacco farmer.
The hour is upon him when he must
solve the question for all time and
make his declaration of independ-
ence, or he must face economic de-
pendence and industrial bondage for
himself and his family.

cient for all practical purposes that

The trouble heretofore has been
that the farmer was slave to cot

system Ma was unfair to him. Will
he become the master of his own
destiny?
AS an individual it is an fmposs-
iole task. Either he must abandon
the crop or he must cooperate with
others in an effort to create a bet
ter market. Cotton and tobacco
growing ought to be profitable. The
world needs the South's annual crop
of cotton and tobacco. And the world
will pay a fair price for it If the
farmer demands it. He is not asking
anything unreasonable when He de-
mands a living wage for himself and
his family and fair return on his
investment. His cause is a righteous
one and it will prevail if he will
work intelligently to that end. CO.
operative marketing is the biggest
thing in the South today. It's the
biggest thing in Wilson County With

how can we expect to prosper as
county? How may we expect to
build good roads and schools with

COOPERATIVE MARKETING.

For the first time in the history
of cotton and tobacco growing it ap-
pears reasonable certain that the
producer will be factor in con-
trolling prices.
Heretofore it has been his lot
to produce cotton and tobacco tan
abundance of it, and offer it in the
worlds market for what price 1t
would command. He has never dared
fix a price on his product or keep
it OF the market if the price offered
was too little. But a new era Is COM
ing and the man who grows cotton
and tobacco will have something to
say as to what price he will receive
for his labor, his invested capital
his overhead expenses, etc.
The time is opportune for cooper
atiye marketing propaganda. II the

PRACTICAL PICTURE GALLERIES

Within the marvellous mechanism
which the souls of mankind are util-
izing for contracting the external
world there is a provision for recall
ing into the center Of consciousness
any object, event, thought or feeling
which the organism has ever perceiv-
led or experienced.
In the great majority the possibil-
ity of recalling more than the merest
fraction of these experiences is con-
|spicuously absent. Why this is so, has
occupied thinkers from time immem-
orial. Today, however, the matter
has a practical reference not evident
in the past.
Business in general and the every
day life in general, in the more pro-
|gressive countries, have been placed
upon basis of efficiency unknown
to the ancients.
Efficiency in turn demands mental
alertness and sound judgment, and
these depend much upon the ability
to recall Immediately and marshal
before the inner eye experiences
bearing upon matters that are under
ory has begun to rank higher than
ever among the qualities or posses
sions or powers of the individual, and
he who would make the most of his
velopment and training Of his mem
ory to the highest degree.
Within ourselves we may imagine
there exists a great gallery of many
rooms and corridors and capable of
infinite extension. A strange place,
indeed, this gallery! for, without
moving a step, we may summon be-
fore us any of it's contents, and ev-
erything we desire to see, appears
as by magic, providing, when placing
the picture therein we have followed
a certain natural procedure char
acterized as attention, concentration,
association, and frequent recall.
If we have not followed this pro-
cedure in the first place, those things
brought by indefinite, even quite un-
recognizable, or nothing whatever
may come, and we may have but the
feeling of straining our eyes to pierce
through battling mist.
That the entire contents of the
mental picture gallery may be re-
called, and that they embrace every
item of experience the individual has
passed through, seem fully estab-
lished by the intelligent reports of
persons rescued at the point of death
by drowning, and by certain mes
meric experiments.
The question is, with those who
are imbued with the spirit of evolu-
tion and progress, not one of doubt
as to whether the magic of instant
recall of experiences or records, is
worth striving to attain to the full
est, but what method to follow.
Intuitively they recognize that no
matter what system is used, will

ohO eAoTI muSC De emplOyed-that
there is indeed no royal road to the
secrets of memory-magic. But, nat
urally, they seek the most direct
road, the one on which the least ex-
penditure of effort will be required.
Intelligent seekers wish also to
know that they are acquiring a per-
manent power applicable in all mat
ters, simple, concrete, complex con-
crete, simple abstract and complex
abstract, and not the mere ability to
astonish and perplex- with feats that
have no relation to human life and
efficiency.
And furthermore, they wish to
know that their efforts are at the
same time increasing the strength Of
their will, their general mental pow
ers, and. their influence over people
with whom they come into contact,
through the fascination of trained,
well-stocked mind capable of dis
playing at will portions of it's con-
tents that are of timely interest.
And too, such seekers wish to
learn the art of forgetting, or rather
of heing able to keep out of the
center Of consciousness, or range of
the minds eye, matters that are best
kept in obscurity. What peace this
power brings in it's train, let the
worrier, the insomnias, the super
conscious, testify; and what added
efficiency it promotes, let him who
is harrassed by multifarious duties
and obligations, bear witness to.
To acquire the power to stand
within the great gallery of the mind
and summon what we will-provid-
ing our reasoning faculty be healthy
and vigorous-is virtually to length
en- our lives by decades, in terms OF
achievement; and is to promote a
smoothness of flow, a peace, an ease
of performance, which cannot but
add to our sense of well being, per-
haps actually increase our hold upon
life.
And the power of memory, de-
veloped by a system founded upon
reason confirmed by experience, is a
permanent thing. OF invaluable aid
here, in all the walks and vicissitudes
and emergencies of life, as it per-
tains to the soul itself it must per-
sist even after the body of earth has
been laid aside.
Is there any intelligent, forward
looking man or woman, boy or girl
who, when attention is called to the
significance of memory and it's de-
velopment, is not inspired with de-
sire to undertake this work with
ardor? And can solicitous parents
any longer submit to the haphazard
construction of these practical pic
ture galleries in the minds of their
little ones, when but a few minutes
of interesting training daily at home
will lay the foundation for we'll
devised treasures of mental records
and well-conceived powers of initia-
tive and recall?
