that fellow was on Princeton he would
be the talk of the east. If he was

The player under consideration was

says that Lynch will be shorn of the
title the first time ne steps into the
ring with Tremaine.
Another Terrible Terry.
Tremainc is the unusual type, very
clever, yet a great hitter and agrees
sive. At times he throws cleverness
to the winds and swaps punches
standing toe to toe with his opponent.
1t is said Of Tremaine that no battler
has ever made him back r, and that
he always has the last punch IN Il
clinch. In many ways Tremaine re-
minds one of Terry McGovern when
that great fighter was in his prime.
He has plenty of color.
Tremaine is certainly entitled to
crack at the bantam title. His record
justifies that assertion. TO fail TO
bring him together with Lynch is an
injustice TO the fight fans of New

Noble Example of UnseIfishness.
Indeed. only a few days ago there
came under my observation one of the
noblest and most splendid examples
of unselfsh charity of which I've
know in years.
The life of little child was at
stake. It's parents are country folk
of the most Grassy ignorant tpye.
And their poverty is pitiful beyond
compare. From an accident which
had befallen it at their home hum
dred miles from Pensacola, the life
of their child was hanging in a bal
ance and upon money which was do
mated to them by sympathetic folk in
their county town, they brought the
infant to Pensacola for treatment.
They went to the hospital upon their
arrival here. where they We're re-

responded in like spirit. But it was
too much that the hospital should be
burdened with the care Of the child
and its parents without recompense,
though no complaint was made of
the burden.
1t matters not how the rich man
of whom we write, became apprsed
OF the case. Or his name, because
that's a sacred confidence.
But it does matter to state that this
rich man discovered the plight of the
poverty stricken parents Of the little
child and the man who appraised him
of it was authorized. TO alone TO ask
the hospital authorities to render
him a bill for the expense of keeping

-FOUR HORSEMEN"
SMASHES RECORDS
ST. .oOO. 900 INGRAM PRODUCTION
OFSIBANEZ FILM DUE HERE
NEXT WEEK

The long-awaieed Rex Ingram
production of ''The Four Horsemen
of the Apocalypse" is coming to the
Liberty theatre next Thursday and
Friday. Matinee at 3 O'Clock each
day. This is the picture that cost
Metro S1,OO0,0O0 to make, and from
all accounts, the million dollars was
well spent, as critics agree that all
other efforts at production on a
grand scale have been surpassed and
record runs have been made in New
York, Chicago, Boston, Detroit, Los
Angeles and other cities where the
picture has been previously shown.
Fifty principals and $500 extras
were engaged in the filming Df the
photodrama, an entire Frend viii
lage and an elaborate chateau were
erected to be destroyed under he ar
tillery bombardment of the German
invaders, and more than 5000
tons of masonry, steel, lumbT and
furniture were used in creatiig the
backgrounds that are. said to repro
duce with absolute fidelity the shift
ing panorama of the story.
The appeal of the story itsdf has
been proved through tie sue
cess of the novel by Vicente Blasco
Ibanez, upon which the photdlrama
is founded It's sale throughut the
world runs into millions, bu mil
lions more will probably have it re-
vealed to them the first time trough
the medium of the screen prediction.
This production is reported t have
followed faithfully the epic ale of
human passion against the back
ground of the Great War as elated
by Ibanez.
