used to tell about an ending which
would have been terrible if acted.
AS it now stands it is only ridicu-
louS.
But all the rest of 1.-THE River Pr
rate" is good entertainment as far
as this type of entertainment goes.
1t is made even better by cast
headed by Victor McLaglen as the
pirate. He is just the type for such
role. He looks tough, but he
knows how to make you understand
that he has love in his heart for
his pal. And he knows how to de-
velop the comedy idea.
There is a young chap in this
movie by the name of Nick Stuart.
He has that look, that innocent kid
look about him which may make
him famous on the screen. And
the lad seems to know how to regis

And directors, you know, gen.

happy ending, whether it is logical
or not. And so when the chief

right road because of the love of
good girl, the story stops md a guy
with white hair seated on an easy
chair or something like that, starts
talking and tells you that even
where the action stops the story
goes right on. He tells you that
the young fellow actually does go
straight and that his pal, the river
pirate, gets out of prison in time to
act as best man at the wedding of
the youngster and his girl. All very
sweet, but when I was present many
people in the audience were laugh

then you will discover many of this
brand in 1.-TWO Lovers" 1t is all
very proper because the characters
that Miss Banky and Colman play
are married. That is the Spanish
invader decided that his niece
should marry the son of the high
bailiff of Client. 1t was a marriage
Of state as well as of conspiracy.
The high Spanish gentleman knew
that his niece was in love with a
Spanish officer, and that she would
betray her husband and make pos
sible the strong hand of Spain in
Flanders.
There is a mysterious element In
this story. There is a character
known as "Leatherface," who always
turns up just in time to protect the
life of the Prince of Flanders and
also in time to do lot of damage
against the Spanish armies.
1 guess it wouldn't be fair to tell
you who "Leatherface" is because
lot of the mystery hangs upon this
character. Anyway 1.-TWO Lovers"
is filled with romance, some nice
acting, beautiful, sets and splendid
photography.
Here is a costume or period movie
that has real box Office drawing
power and it will please those who
enjoy a mixture of romance and
mystery The entire cast has been

She is much better in her comedy
work than when she goes in for
registering the effect of a heart
made heavy by war. OF course there
are moments of sentimental sadness
in the first part of the movie, but
it is the comedy antics of Miss
Moore that gives life and sparkle to
the story. And as filmed, Lilac
Time" is just story of sentimental
love with a war background and the
background is aviation or fighting in
the clouds. These airplane battles
are thrilling and the introduction of
the red colored plane of the enemy
gives a striking note of daring to
the story.

part of the movie that will please

At the present time 315 cities in

Previously, C. B. Bell. Murphy
attorney, had appealed to the gov.
ernor to put stop to a bull fight
he said was being widely adVer.
tised in that section of the stats.
Bell wired the governor:
"The mayor of Murphy has
granted a hermit for two l,5U0.
pound bulls to be fought here July
4, and this fight is being advertised.
81 think il permitted this fight
would be a disgrace to not only
Cherokee county but the Stote or

Sheriff Birchfield to stop this fight
The governor sent Bell the follow
Ing telegram:
Have conferred with attorney
general relative to your wire. You
should notify Sheriff Birchtield and
all other police officials of your
county that to hold q bull fight in
the county will violate Sections
