a manager of a theatre in this or
any other city. is able to book such
wonderful acts as those seen upon
the bill at this theatre today, in con-
nection with the motion picture at
fractions, which are of more than
usual merit. The theatre was crowd
ed to the doors at all performances
yesterday and last night and many
people declared the show to be one
of the finest ever seen in this city.
The vaudeville consists Of the fol-
lowing acts: Daisy, Helen &c Maize
Review, a musical comedy farce;
Charles Gibbs, lessons in mimicry;
Harry Gerris & Co. an JAPAN"
Morton & Brown, colored entertain
ers; Daley & Ormond, singing and
dancing.
The photoplay is Dustin Farnum
in Three Who Paid" a splendid
photoplay of bravery and love. 1t
is one of those productions that one
wants to see more than once. There
is also the fourth episode of Pearl
White in "Plunder," a Harold Lloyd
comedy and a news.

flung upon the screen. II we were
to make a choice between this fight
scene and the fight scene in "Tol'-
able David" we would hesitate long
before making u selection. Per-
sonally we think that the fight in
MY Dad" is more thrilling and that
it is done with a trihe more realism,
thanks to the skillful acting of john
ME Walker, who is at home in this
type of role.
Still another striking feature of
this production is the s~now-capped
grandeur of the mountains amid
which the action takes place. The
vastness of the snow lands, the utter
DISSOLUTION Of winter, he loneliness
of the trails, frozen tight from the
numbing cold, all combine to make
d picture of rare pictorial effective
ness. 1t is a production well worth
seeing.

And to us He is revealing life after

Oh! For the Truth we are seeking, as
our spirit friends well know,
And to us He is revealing as to merit
of faith we show.
We seek, we look and we wonder at
the things we don't understand,
But when we have learned our lesson,
we'll be willing to obey life's COM

And look on a glorious future with

With all the persecution and accu-
sations, charges and whatnots that
has been hurled at the Knights Of the
Ku Klux Khan by the Governors Of
Oklahoma. Louisiana, and other
states, doubtless many people
throughout the entire United States
oftimes wonder why the Knights Of
he Ku Klux Khan continues to grow,
and increase its membership by tens
of thousands every year.
The answer to this, is indeed very
simple. A house that is built on a
solid rock foundation viii never be
undermined, and so it is with the
Knights of the Ku Klux Khan.
A thing or an undertaking, or a
movement thus fundamentally right
cannot be destroyed, and especially
so by those who draw on their imagin-
tion or jump at conclusions and this
to my mind has been the case in every
instance where this great organiza-
ton has been subjected to unmerciful
persecution and criticism. g
Jesus Christ leads our way, and he
i ever before us, and we fully real
ize without His guidance we could do
nothing. The cross Of the Savior Is
our beacon light, and He will forever
lead us in righteous way, driving
for an objective with a thought for
ever in our hearts, Of not for self,
but for others.
If the Khan did not take for its cri-
terion of character Jesus Christ, is
could not have possibly lived and
grown as It has, -
Real men who know what the Klan
stands for, and regardless of this
present persecution will tell you that
it is the greatest organization in
America today, and the only organiza-
ton Of pure Anglo-Saxon Native born
white Protestant and Gentle Ameri-
cans, whose sires and DANES of gen.
Grafton ago laid the foundation Of this
government, and that it is the only
organization that will save the Unit
ed States of America from its enem-
les within and without. . .
1t is a fact that can be proven a
thousand times over that the alien

at the same time was fair minded

Reasoning will prove to anyone
that class which, was or is unpa-
triotic to its native country, cannot
possibly be patriotic to any other.
It is for more than a mere fact
that the class of immigrants now and
who have been coming to this coun-
try, are constantly lowering thu
morals and standards Of living Of thu
American people. .-... ID
Careful examination Of statistics
will prove that most Of the trouble
in the United States originates from
the foreign element which is always
opposed to law and order. .-
Aliens in most cases have proved
to be migratory" that is, they come
here and obtain enough money to &c
back home and live in luxury.
+ Furthermore, this low class %
aliens have always worked for low

on; therefore, the alien got the job
Is it fair that few big manufac.
turers be permitted to import these

fit without regarding the prosperity
of the nation?
{ Regulations must be made to STOP
the foreign immigration, at least un-
til we naturalize those who are al
ready on our hands and causing Sc
much trouble. T. ~.
Since naturalizing has a far great.
er meaning than just simply taking
the papers, we must not forget that
q native-born American must live
here twenty-one years before he car

papers has to live here only five years

The native-born AMERICANS are

y, Realm Of Alabama
eager and willing to become one Of its
members.
The twelfth Chapter of Romans, is
the Klansman's guide and each Klans-
man must live up to its teachings.
The Knights Of the Ku Klux Khan,
from an official point Of view never
has and never will place its stamp Of
approval on any form of law viola
tion, neither have they ever attempt
ed to enforce the law on the statute
books of this country only insofar as
lending their aid and support to the
regular constituted authorities.
AS the old saying goes, "a burnt
child fears the fire." and by that token
with a little investigation it will be
seen without any exception that those
who are continually trying to destroy
the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan are
those that the Khan say enmasses are
the ones if they have their way would
destroy this, the greatest government
on earth, mainly the Catholics, who
are governed by he. Pope of Rome,
the Jew, who has~nothing in common
with tn; country, forever selfish to
his own interest and has practiced
klanishness for two thousand years,
the immigrant or alien who SEEKS this
country as lost paradise because-his
own offered him nothing short of
slavery, and the hundreds upon thou
sands of individuals who have an alb
solute disregard for the laws.
So those who believe in an open
town where they shall sell whisky,
permit the pool and dance halls to
stay open on Sunday and whose petty
politicians allow their officers to wink
at the law, then we say they must
shoulder this responsibility of law en-
forcement or get out. r.
To those who read my message ]
tell you that Alabama's membership
is growing by leaps and bounds, so it
is throughout the country, but if we

to account for the one that we receive.

FRENCH SUFFRAGE BILL
MARKS TIME IN DEBATE
Flood of Amendments Provokes
Storm and Demand for
Confidence Vote
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PARIS. December 1.-THE woman
suffrage bill, tossed about in a cross
sea of amendments and counter
amendments, had a stormy time in
the French chamber yesterday. When
the weather cleared and adjournment
was taken it was found that the bill
had made no progress.
Friends of the measure, by what
was openly criticized in the chamber
as the injudicious loading of the bill
with a demand for votes for minor
children, are regarded as equally re-
sponsible for the delay as its oppo-
nents, who indulGed In systematic di-
versions and attempts to steer the de-
bate into a general discussion on in
e;nal politics.
The opposition, taking advantage
of Premier Poincare's absence, made
life uncomfortable for the minister Of
the interior, Nj. Maunoury, by intro
duCing n multitude of interpretations
on internal questions, until the min
lister in despair was forced to raise
the question of confidence when
Georges Mandel strenuously insisted
upon a debate on the governments
entire internal policy.
The government was upheld by
vote of 1876 to SO, the matter of votes
for women being sidetracked in the
meantime.
