over THE HILL" IS
COMING TO THE PALACE
Feature Film Will Be Shown on
Thursday and Friday.

The theme which evoked from King
Lear his immortal plant, How sharp
er than a serpent's tooth it is to have
a thankless childW and which caused
Absa1om to break the heart OF his
aged father, David King OF Israel,
has been used by William Fox for his
greatest photoplay, Over the Hill,
which will be seen at tht Palace thea
tire on Thursday and Friday, March
1st and End.
There has been so much said IN
magazines and newspapers all over
the country about the sensational run
.of Over the Hip in New York for
full year, prior to its general release,
that it seems almost superhuous to
dwell at length on its merits. Suffice
to saw that the superb film drama was
made by Fox from two of Will Garlic
toms celebrated Farm Ballads" and
has for its theme the divine love OF
a mother Harry Millarde directed the
picture and Paul H. Sloane made the
scenario.
While the story is one calculated to
reach, by its strength OF sentiment,
the heart of the most calloused play
goer. it has nevertheless many lighter
moments when the risibilities are tic
killed. by some of the most delightful
comedy ever flashed upon the screen.

him to be a very scholarly man, espe-
cially in his line of workable teach
ing. Local Baptists know him through
his supply pastoral work at the First
Baptist church in Albany and also at
the First Baptist church in Cordele.
Those of the local members who have
heard him say he is very able preach

u. D. C. CHAPTER
is NOT IN POLITICS
DECLINES TO ENDORSE LADY
FOR POSTMASTER. INTER
ESTING PROGRAM.

The members of the Dawson chap
ter, Daughters of the Confederacy, i'll
regular session Friday afternoon at
the club house, made it plain that they
refuse to be drawn into politics by in
dividuals or organizations. By unani-
nous vote they refused the request of
Mrs. Ellen Dortch Longstreet, pre-
sented in a lengthy letter, to intercede
with President Harding to override
the opposition of the congressman of
that district and appoint her postmis-
tress at Gainesville. The principal
reason for this action was the demo-
cratic principle that each COMPRESSION
al district should settle its own prob
lens, the conclusion being drawn that
Gainesville people are abundantly able
to manage their affairs without inter-
ference from outsiders.
Other matters of interest were
brought before the chapter and the
routine of business was promptly dis
patched. In the absence of the presl-
dent Mrs. J. M. Rauch presided with
ease and grace Attention was called
to the importance of contributing at
once to the completion of the Jeffer-
son Davis memorial, which is ght
now the outstanding work of the
United Daughters of the Confederacy.
Mrs. T. B. Raines and Mrs. {. M.
Couric will receive and forward all
contributions to this fund.
The program arranged by Mrs. ]:
w. Gurr was a delightful study OF
Living Southern Authors" Names
of southern contemporary writers
were given in response to roll. call.
Mrs. J. w. Kennedy gave in very
pleasing and Instructive way charac-
ter sketches of Harry Stillwell Ed
wards, Samuel Minturn Peck, Helen
Topping Miller, Frank L. Stanton and
William Hamilton Haynes. Little
Miss Bernice Brim was charming in
two readings, "The Ride" and april
RAIN" preceded by a brief sketch OF
! the author, Robert Loveman, OF Dali
ton, Ga. "The Sea Lyric" by Hayes,
was read with fine effect by Mrs. J.
G. Parks. Other numbers on the pro-
gram, two favorites by Stanton,
mighty LAX a Rose" and Just a
Wearyin' for You," were omitted on
account of unavoidable absence OF
Mrs. J. A. Shields.
During the social half hour delicious
orange ice was served with sweet
waters by group of hostesses.

METHODIST CONGREGATION
HEARS FORCEFUL SERMON

The auditorium of the Methodist
church was filled almost capacity at
morning service Sunday. A feature of
the enjoyable musical program was an
appreciated solo by Miss Nellie LANG.
The vital message by the pastor,
Rev. T. NJ Christian, was an answer
to the question: What is the Scrip
tural Meaning of Church Attendance"
and was vigorous in statement and
fervent in appeal, the fundamental
reason being set forth clearly and
forcibly.
"A False Measure" was the theme
of the evening service, the timely and
helpful message being based on the
text: But let every man prove his
own works and then shall he have
rejoicing in himself alone and not in
another" Gal "a. The speaker read
from the 10th chapter, End Cor. 1918,
preliminary to the sermon.
