MIDNIGHT, SCREEN
 ROMANCE AT GALAX
Constance Binney, Starring in Case of Becky, Takes
 Leading Role

More than a touch of mystery, tender vein of youthful romance and situations dynamically powerful in the sheer force of climatic drama all of these elements have been ad- mirably intermixed to make Mid night" a Constance Binney picture which will be at the Galax Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday, one of the most entertaining productions seen in months.
 This offering reveals still further the emotional talent displayed by Constance Binney in her recent pro- auctions as tThe Case of Becky, and First Love-" Miss Binney is seen as a trusting, too romantic girl whom an early marriage almost wrecks. Later happiness comes again, but is menaced by the past, a past that is obliterated in d way most satisfying from both the entertainment and dramatic point of view.
 The part of this unhappily welded heroine is radically different from any of Miss Binneys roles in previous productions, but none the less satis- flying. Jack Mu1hall appears to splen- did advantage in the leading male role, while two fine father" parts are excellently handled by William Courtleigh and Edward Martindel. The direction of M<Irice Campbell keeps the dramatic suspense in an admirable manner.

 New York.--A tablet in honor of John Ericsson, the designer, and Cornelius De Lamater, who built the machinery of the famous Civtl war Monitor" was recently un- yelled on the site of DeLamaters ironworks in New York city.

 Timby was born In Dover, N. T., In 1922 and died in 1909. Hhe conceived the idea of the turret upon seeing a round brick fort in New York har- bor in 1S41. He received a royalty of $5,000 for use of his principle, but was never accorded public recognition for his part in the Monitors" making.

Gainesville for running over young
white boy two years ago. The little
boy had fingered in pain for fully
year and died. The culprit had evaded
arrest until captured yesterday. A
Sanford boy was run over and severe
ly injured last week. A fine old Flor
ida farmer was killed few days ago
by a reckless young man running his
car at top speed. A boy was killed
three days ago in DuVal county. And
so the death roll grows. A man is
not allowed to run a railroad engine
until he has served an apprenticeship
and can stand a rigid examination.

At this season of the year there are
many woods fires in Florida. The
fires are set. It is one of the states
most serious problems. Consider the
fact that within the next two or three
years twenty million boxes will be
needed to market the citrus crop, and
that within ten years forty million
boxes will be required for this crop,
to say nothing of the millions of
crates and hampers and baskets need
ed to market the truck crops. Where
ars these boxes coming from? The
timber supply of Florida is disappear
ing fast. Within ten years it will be
necessary to go out of the state for
material with which to make boxes,
and the remaining stands of timber
are on the Pacific coast. Every woods
fire destroys young trees. 1t is just
like destroying so many boxes and
crates. It is something for the citrus
grower and truck grower and farmer
to think about.

The Herald was in error when it
said last week that the vets had car
ried Ohio in the recent election. When
the reports came in from the larger
cities of the state it appeared that
Ohio was going wet, but when the
rural vote, which came in last, showed
up it knocked the hopes of the anti
prohibitionists into a cooked hat. Cal
ifornia is another state that voted to
sustain the Volstead law in spite of
the fact that one of its chief indus
tries is the raising of grapes, which
were formerly converted into wine.
The grape raisers have found that
they can dispose of their crops for
other purposes to as great an advant-
age as for wine, and at the same time
eliminate the Objectionable liquor bus.

Curious Mediterranean Fish.

A creature which has a beak like
a parrot, cheek pouches like those Of
monkey. and chews its cud like a
cow inhabits the warm waters Of the
Mediterranean. It browses on the
weeds that flourish on the sea floor.
Its upper and lower jaws have be-
come hardened into sharp curved
beak, which is just the tool required
for looping off tough seaweed. Each
piece shipped off by the beak is
passed into one of the two curious
pouches which adorn the cheeks, and
there it remains until the parrot fish
feels that it has collected enough for
a good meal 1t then chews the cud
by means of the splendid set of teeth,
which nature has placed not In Its
mouth, but In its throat.
