Of the big woods. Kiwanis has de-
veloped such a benchful of skilled
horsehide hurlers, full fashioned, out

the turf of any field. Rotary players

for cons and cons of time and have
now reached a purity of SO 44.100 per

Rotary's master swatsmen wobble

Up to late hour, the Kiwanis line
up has remained a dark and dusky
secret. 1t is rumored that the entire
membership will take turns at root
ing and fielding. Rotary also plans
to do this, lest the dormant skill of
a toot-less member be wasted on the
undeserving atmosphere. Hoping that
another day may disclose the list Of
Kiwanis artists, Rotary withholds her
directory of worlds best astronomical
objects for twenty-four moro long

is to be charged but certain as Christ

will pass the hat. Worthy Is the

charity. Half the proceeds goes to
the Kiwanis for their Augusta hospi-
tai fund. The remaining half swells
Rotarys fund for helping to make
whole the crippled Riddles Of this vi
cinity. Every citizen <who has a
heart for charity will gladly help
these grown-up boys to do their SER

spectators with leaping bursts Of
laughter. Great skill, and skill not so
great will bring amusement to the
multitudes. soreness to many muscles,

MONROE
TO-DAY AND TOMORROW
Slum Realism In
Mary Pickford Film

Standing at the old Five Points"
when that section was notorious as
the crime center of New York City,
non-descript representatives and
members of all the nations and all
races could be seen passing by.
On dingy tenement "set" in the
shadow of Hollywood Hills, several
thousand miles from the present day
Five Points" of New York, the
same nations and the same races
were represented in the making of
Mary Pickford's new picture, Little
Annie Rooney" United Artists Cor
pofation release which shows at the
Monroe Theatre today.
Among the 10000 or more extras
| of Hollywood, motion picture CEN
ter, are all types, all nationalities
and all colors. These are carefully
listed in the records of casting di-
rectors and may be summoned by
telephone at an hours notice. They
are camera broke" know the tricks
of makeup and many own extensive
wardrobes.
Little Annie Rooney" deals with
life-hd life-in the tenement
house district of New York's famous
lower East Side with its teeming
population, its thousands upon thou
sands who crowd into that section
of the city from all parts of the
world With but just a few excep-
tions the whole picture was pro-
duced in Hollywood at the Pickford-
Fairbanks studio; the cast is made
up from the hordes of film extras
there.
In the story Little Annie Rooney
is the twelve year old daughter of a
popular New York bluecoat; leader
of band of rough-and-tumble, alley
fighting youngsters of 1.-THE Block, !"
and is secretly and wildly infatuated
with a hulking truck driver, Joe
Kelly, who is the pal of her big
brother, Tim Rooney. Her garb con-
sists of the cheapest of calico, torn
and n1uch-darned stockings, and
down-at-the heel shoes. She spurns
hat.
Gone are the castles and their
moats; the palaces and their princes,
of Miss Pickford's "Rosita" and
Dorothy Vernon" Absent are the
heavy velvet and lace gowns with
their sweeping trains of her costume
dramas. Here are the Uttered streets
and areaways of the tenement dis
trict; tin cans and brickbats ever
handy for the fighting kid gangsters;
here are broken bathtubs, old, rusty
boilers, great empty boxes, all MAX

YELL ADOPTED

UNIVERSITY STUDENTS READI-
LY TAKE UP NEW PHRASE IN
HAlLTNG PASSING MOTORISTS
ON ROAD


UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA, Feb.
18.-"How about ride?"
This is one of the most popular
scoIlege yells" at the University of
Florida. 1t is known to every man
on the campus of the institution, and
instead of cheer-leader to bring it
forth, it takes only the passing of an
automobile, regardless of the make
of the machine, whenever student
wants a ride. This "yell" has been
used to a great extent lately.
In the past football season, the
four Varsity gridiron games to be
played away from Gainesville
Georgia Tech, at Atlanta; Mississippi
A. & M. at Tampa; Alabama at
Montgomery, and Washington and
Lee, at Jacksonville-were attended
by a great percentage of the student
body. Of this large percentage,
quite a number went by way of the
Cumming" route.
One of the reasons why this mode
of travel is so popular is because of
the ease and success with which the
rides can be obtained. So much
traffic crowds the highways that there
is hardly time when one cannot get
a Gift" And many times it is neces-
sity that makes one go that way.
This is especially true inasmuch that
such a large per cent of the students
of the University are earning their
own expenses. For, with game of
football nearby and without means
to go by train to see it, the only thing
to do is to "bum," and this answers
the problem nicely, for the student is
generally successful.
Not only to football games is the
s'yelP' used. On any weekend,
whether the spirit of adventure calls
or his best girls letter entices him
forth from his studies, many college
men take to the road. On any high.
way near Gainesville may be seen one
or two, students waiting for rides
Cumming" has been raised to q
dignified position, and no student
considers himself too "elite" to hal
a car.
Not only at the University OF
Florida is this type of travel in
vogue, but college men all over the
country find the economic value of it
"How about a rider" has become
tire slogan which win never be quiet.

air, is the opinion of Florida stu
dents.

During the past $50 years there
have been five periods in which the
women of Great Britain considerably
outnumbered the men. Each of these
periods was followed by a time
averaging from ten to fourteen years
when the sexes were practically
equal in numbers. Then boy babies
came along in such profusion that
the fair sex was soon outnumbered.
