AT RYLANDER.

For his latest First National re-
lease, THE Deuce Of Spades" at the
Rylander theater Wednesday, Chas.
Ray has found his forte in the west
ern mining country Of Montana; but
he has brought with him all the in
genius mannerisms of the eastern
farm that have made him screen
favorite in the past.
"The Deuce of Spades" is de-
lightful sojourn in the land of two
gun men, confidence sharks and card
dealers who can flip off a straight
flush with the same nonchalance
with which a bartender used to toss
out New Orleans gin fizz. In this
hardboiled community the unsophis-
ticated one is obviously out Of place.
1t is in this role of embarrassed
naiveness that the star does some of
his finest acting. He devotes his
energy to finding a worthy husband
for Sally, the pretty little miss who
is assisting him in his restaurant
and genuinely registers a total lack
Of innocence Of her love for him.
If the mining scenes have been re-
produced in the studio they have
been exceedingly well done. Ttey
are some of the best rough town"
sets that have ever been shown on
the screen; and the characters who
inhabit the hardIboiled community
are equally real. Elkhorn Jenkins,
who has a finger in every business
pie and practically owns Little
Butte, may not have been fashion
ed after any one individual, but
there are countless numbers who
may feel an apology is due them for
the way in which the character has
been portrayed.
The climax comes when Amos
Charles Ray) fall prey to the
oldest card sharper's trick of all anC
it brings to the surface resource
fulness that no one ever credited
him with. From this point the plo
works to a conclusion that is sur
prising not only from its sudden
ness, but from the clever coined!
vein in which it is worked cut. Ra!
does some excellent acting and ha
the advantage of capable support.

HOUSEDEBATES
WEEVILCONTROL
Putnam Man Proposed $4,000
Additional For Educating
Farmers

ATLANTA, July 18.-In connec-
ton with a bill introduced by Repre-
sentative w. A. Wall, of Putnam, d
discussion of the boil weevil took up
good part of the time of Monday
session of the house. Mr.. Walls bill
was for the state to make an appro-
priation of $4,000 to the board of
entomology for the purpose of in
structing farmers in the use of cal
cium arsenate. Numerous members
opposed the bill on the ground that
this board has already an approprIa-
ton of 100000 year for educating
the farmers along different lines in
GLIDING methods of destroying the boil
weevii. Other members strongly sup
ported the bill giving as their reasons
that the situation was desperate and
that too much money could not be
spent in educating the farmers IN
their war against this dangerous pest.
In the midst of the debate the house
adjourned and on a special order the
bill went over until Tuesday.
The Atlanta city charter bill abol-
isbing the various departmental
boards and putting into effect the va
rious other amendments to the char
ter voted for by the people in the
city charter election of May 30 was
made a special and continuing order.
Representative Bentley, of Fulton,
strenuously opposed the report of The
rules committee which inciudd this
bin in the special order, contendlng
that the people had no opportunity to
vote for the retention of the boards,
and insisted that thirty minutes for
debate on the bill as provided by the
rules committee was not sufficient.
The idea that thirty minutes was
not sufficient time was ridlculed by
Representative Moore, who declared
that if he could not convince the
house in fifteen minutes he could not
convince them in fifteen hours. BY a
vote of 1O6 to the house placed the
bill on the calendar. The following
bills were introduced in the house
Monday:
BY Mr.. Horne, of Dodge-To pro
vide for setting aside a portion of
the motor vehicle fund to match fed
eral aid.
BY Mr.. Holloway, of Fulton-Fo
appropriate $19,5O0 a year to match
the federal fund under the Shepard
Towner act for maternity aid.
By Fulton Delegation-To amend
act relating to capital stock of trust
companies.
BY Mr.. Beekham, of Dougherty-
To authorize cities and counties to is
sue bonds for joint high schools.
By Mr.. Brown, of Emanuel-To
prohibit. the planting of cotton in
1924 and each second year thereaf
ter.
By Mr.. Bentley, of Fulton-To
elect judges of Atlanta municipal
courts by the people.
By Mr.. Ennis, of Baldwin-To
create a board of trustees for the
Georgia Military College.

EVENING OF FUN PLANNED
TO AID THALEAN CHURCH

An entertainment entitled Miss
Mirandy's Minstrel" and a farce,
Mrs. Blacks Pink Tea" will be
presented Friday evening, July 21, at
Thalean school, the proceeds to go
toward painting the church at Friend
ship.
Friendship Baptist church has an
interesting history, being located a
few miles from Americas in a grove
of beautiful trees, on 8 acres of
ground given by the McGarrah es-
tate, to be used for school and
church purposes. The little school
house still remains on the grounds,
but since the consolidation of rural
schools has been used for an addi-
tional space for conventions and as
sociations held in the main building.
During Rev. Isaac Harris pastorate
in 1859, Friendship Baptist associa-
ton was formed, yearly conventions
having been held and it has developed
a rapid growth.
This association has grown into one
Of the largest and most influential
Baptist units throughout the state,
embracing within its bounds so
churches, with a large membership.
Its organization dates back to
1870, when Liberty church, located in
Stewart county, was divided, one
portion coming into Sumter county
and taking the name of Friendship.
In 1857, a new building was erected
under the direction of Rev. J. W.
Weekly, a prominent Baptist minis
ter.

of the two largest daily papers in the city. In the course of the conversa- tion Editor Nellist inquired if I ever knew man by the name of Ferguson, living in our section of the country. You couldn't by any chance mean Bob Ferguson l asked. "Yes, that's the man; he's my uncle. An old 'blue-nose' from New Brunswick whom the folks had not heard from in forty years and only accidentally got track of few years ago in northern Nevada" said MT. Nellist.
 Old residents of Flagstaff will re- member Bob well as an old resident and at one time a ranger in the for est service on the San Francisco Mountains forest reserve, then under the supervision of the writer.
 Jumping back again to the island, just to keep the reader wondering where we will land next. The only things I find lacking here that can not be found in the most up-to-date cities of mainland are chimneys. Houses here do not wear them. They are built more for breeze than for freeze, and to keep out rain in the rainy season and this season of the year is it. They have more private and individual showers here than any place I ever saw. They are delicate, drop water in a friendly way, and hand you rainbow of vivid colors right close up - so near one almost reaches out and tests its texture. Up Manoa valley, snug little valley a few miles out, there are some 230 in- ches of rainfall annually. Some lit tie drippage. But that's nothing, the native will tell you. Over Hawaii there is a valley that has a record of 600 inches of rainfall. There may have been more, but government in- struments ran out of capacity to measure it. Anyway, here it is not soggy, dismal drip, but friendly damp which quickly dries up. In half an hour there is no sign of rain.
 The city and county government is a combined government. There is board of supervisors and mayor. The mayor is paid salary of $6,O0O per annum, and is on the job all the time. The supervisors function about as ours do on $1,200 year. All city officers are also county officers. The territorial system is the same as it used to be in Arizona during terri torial days. The president appoints the governor and federal judges. As near as I can learn, the people here feel about as Arizona people did over the treatment received from the par ent government and there are some who want statehood, though no strong effort is being made to secure it. It would be rather odd to have a state way out here in the middle of the Pacific, 2,100 miles from the other
The Coconino sun., 1922-02-17

48, but it wouldn't be much more so than it is to have a little island 1,200 miles ayaw attached to Honolulu as a part of the city and coming under it's direction. However, this little is- land is inhabited by only handful of people.
 There are "kapu" signs here and there. "Kapu" means Keep out.' The "a" sounded like the "a" in a rotten tomato as pronounced back in Boston - "aw."
 "Okolehao," familiarly known to many as "ok," including the prohibi- tion directors, is a decoction similar to one made of corn in the states and designated as "white mule." A little of this emptied into Filipino in- stantly causes him to whet his knife and look for some person to insult his dignity. The officers claim the Flip pino is their best customer and fur nishes the criminal courts with the ma jority of their business. Okolehao is made from the root of a tame vege- table which becomes wild when pounded up and fermented. Oh, yes they pulled 75 gallon still near here the other day, which would indicate that the Volstead act had been heard of this far off mainland.
 The language is quaint one, with about ten letters, mostly vowels, and is patterned after Latin. The is "aw," is "e", is "a". The W if half "w" and half "y", if you get the idea. Every letter is pronounced. For instance, the name of one town here has three "a's" stuck in it in a row, and they are all used, though the na- tive shutters them quickly in run ming jump, as it were, and it does not sound so bad. Really the closer you get to the language the less nervous and fretful it seems to the outlander.
 There is not as much hula dancing and hula music as one is lead to ex- pect. l noticed comment on the sub ject in local paper the other day in which the same idea was expressed and hope that it might be corrected in order that tourists might be better entertained. The music is good, but is badly infected with "jazz," pure Hawaiian music being in the discard. However, I find the tourist not en- tirely neglected as to the hula dance, for l have little printed invitation before me which reads: Special Tourist Hawaiian Luan and Hula Dance, including the original old fashioned hula dance by Hawaiian hula dancers under the direction of Mrs. G. J. Boisse, Tuesday evening, January 24." This winds up with the statement that it is S3 per person and reservations limited to 50 persons. I may go, but haven't secured permis- sion as yet - nor admission tickets.
 This seems to be about one penciI- ful and enough for the next boat, if it isn't crowded. I mean the boat.
