in the days Of the catacombs when
the Greek letter "X'' was used to des-
ignate the word Christ, it being the in
itial letter in the Greek spelling of

The usage of the abbreviation be-
came more and more popular in Eng
land years afterward when spelling

age citizen, and Xmas" was much
easier to remember than the word of

EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD
CAST DRAWN BY CRISP

A cast of exceptional excellence was
chosen by Donald Crisp, producer, to
portray the leading roles of THE
Bonnie Brier Bush" Paramount
picture made in England, which viii
be the feature at the Isis theatre Fri
day. Most OF the roles are character
parts, which called for subtle and in
dividual types, and several hundred
persons were interviewed before the
cast was completed.
Mr.. Crisp was fortunate in his choice
of Alec Fraser as his leading man. Mr..
Fraser is young actor with a good
presence who has appeared in several
Stoll productions and who has earned
for himself q considerable reputation
on the musical comedy stage. Jerrold
Robertshaw, a distinguished actor of
the legitimate stage. is seen in the part
OF the Earl OF Kinspindie. Donald
Crisp himself. is both actor and direc-
tor, of the picture. He appears in the
role of Lachlan Campbell, an austere
Highland shepherd, while Mary Glynne
portrays the role OF his dau ghter,
Flora
The company was in Scotland for
FIVE weeks, and many beautiful ex-
terror shots" were obtained. The in
terror OF Lachlan Campbelrs cottage
was made from actual photographs.

RECORD CROWDS
SEE AUTO SHOW
Large Number Of Makes and Models
Are Displayed-SpeciaI Features
Also.

Record crowds filed through the
aisles at the Automobile Show, at Gar
den and Devillier street yesterday aft
ernoon and last night and viewed the
large and elaborate display of the
latest products OF the various factor
les.
Not only Is there a large number of
the various makes and models, but the
arrangement is beautiful and effec-
tive, voicing considerable art in the
manner of display. Each of the popu-
lar makes has space set off to itself
and each local dealer has competed
with the other in the display OF their
particular cars, with the result that
the effect is striking.
Another thing that proved an inter-
esting feature yesterday was the per-
Torrance OF Frank 3. Franks, who
defied the high power of the Cadillac
to bulge him on a straight pull. He
weighs only 10 pounds, but in his
harness, especially prepared for this
feat, he spun the wheels of the high
powered car.
Franks also allowed the same car
to run over his body, and to the
amazement of those who assembled to
witness the feat he permitted an
Overland four to run across his neck.
This exhibition was watched with in
terest by the audience.
Still another feature of the auto
show, one that has been put on for the
past two days but yet interests the
large crowds is the phenomenal leap
OF the sturdy Overland across a ten
foot snace landing on the platform on
the other side without the least dam
age to the springs or any part Of the
car.
The show continues through today
and Thursday.

co. COMMISSIONERS
PASS RESOLUTIONS
County Board Spreads Upon the Min.
utes Resolutions on Death of Judge
Henry BeiIinger.

ION the 20th day of February 1922,
Judge, Beliinger. County Judge, of Es-
Gambia, Florida, one of our fellow
citizens was called by his Maker away
from the strif and toll of this world
to that world beyond the grave
In the passing away of Judge Bel
iinger the people Of Escambia county
and west Florida and the state have
lost the service of a splendid official.
AS county judge of Escambia county
for eighteen years he presided over
that court with dignity, with fairness
and with justice. In his management
and administration of the county
judges office of Escambia county he
set a hight standard for himself, and
those who will follow him will find
that the office OF County Judge and!
the records OF that office were not
not only kept in compliance with law,
but the most painstatking and dill
gent care and Systematic arrangement
was established and maintained by
Judge Beiiinger during his incumbeney
of that office.
We feel It the duty OF this board
to give expression and recognition to
splendid administrative ability of
Judge Henry Bellinger, and not only
to his worth as public official but as
a private citizen his name will remain
as a synonym for worth and integ-
rity and as an inspiration to young
men who may seek an example upon
which to model their lives and services
to their city, to their country and to
their state.
Resolved that this board adopt the
foregoing as in brief way EXPIRE
ing the esteem and honor in which
Judge Henry Bellinger was held by
this board and his fellow citizens in
Escambia county.
Resolved further, that this resolu
ton be spread at large upon the min
utes of this board and that a copy be
furnished to his devoted wife and a
copy given to the press for publica-
ton.
On motion of Commissioner Sober
lind, seconded by Commissioner Went
worth, the foregoing resolution was
unimcusly adopted.

GALL FOR A WOMAN" is
DECLARED GREAT PLAY

"All for a Woman"
This is the fascinating title given
to a new motion picture production
which is meeting with instantaneous
success all over the country and cap
tiyating the lovers of the dramatic
and spectacular with the sheer power
of it's beauty, artistic direction and
pantomimic heights.
"All For a woman is a title which
might have been given to countless
incidents in the history Of mankind
since creation. Women have figured
in every war, every eruption of the
body polite, and in every movement
of any character. This accepted tru-
ism is corroborated by folk lore and
history; and has degenerated into the
French adage cherchez la femme, inn
plying connivance at deeds that are
dark.
"All For a Woman" is an Associated
First National attraction, and will be
the feature at the Isis Theatre for
an engagement of two days, starting
on Monday. 1t is a massive spectacle,
combining all the elements that con-
stitute stark, vivid drama, enlivened
with exquisite touches of humor and
pathos.
The story depicts the sacrifices and
penalties paid by great man "all for
a woman" Strong men ruling the
masses by the sheer power of their
magnetic personalities, succumb to
the wiles of the fair sex, forgetting
all until 1t is too late-paying the
penalty of mixing love with affairs
of state.

FIERY, ITCHY SKIN
QUICKLY SOOTHED
WITH SULPHUR

Mentho-Sulphur. a pleasant cream,
will soothe and heal skin that is irri-
tated or broken out with eczema; that
is covered with ugly rash or pfuples,
or is rough or dry. Nothing subdues
fiery skin eruptions so quickly. says
a noted skin specialist.
The moment this sulphur prepara-
ton is applied the itching stops and
after two or three applications the
eczema Is gone and thes kin is de-
lightfully clear and smooth. Sulphur
Is so precious as a skin remedy be-
cause IT destroys the parasites that
cause the burning, itching or disfig-
urement. Mentho-Sulphur always
heals eczema right up.
A small jar Of Mentho- sulphur may
be had at any good drug store.-Ad-

tors of the Kentucky prohibition
law may be able to pay their fine
and thus avoid serving out any
of the money penalty in Jail, but
even when they have served o0f
the Jail sentence provided, they
may not be able to gain their
freedom, as result of the Court
of Appeals declaring the Rash

the law he must either give bond

court was sweeping, holding the
