Some Items of Personal Mention
Cleaned from the Vicinity

Delaneys, Dec. IA - Delaney's S
Methodist Church, four miles west
of Clayton on the Clayton-M Massey
Road, Rev. A. T. Mcfarland, pas
tor, announces these services: Ser
vices every Sunday; 8 p. m, Sun
day School, Mrs. Charles Pyle, su-
perintendent; 8 p. M, worship ser
vice. This week they have very
unusual program. They were for
tunate in securing THE Stream Of
Life" said to be the greatest re-
ligious picture ever made for such
a service next Sunday. They hope
to begin the program early and
take up both the Sunday School
and Church hours. They are ask
ing all the people to come early so
as to enjoy the entire service.
Those who saw ''The Passion Play
which was presented at Delaney's
last spring will realize just what
they mean when they say that
''The Stream of Life" carries, if
possible, a more impressive mes
sage. This is distinctly a religious
service and the pastor and congre-
cation wish that to be definitely
understood, but they do want the
people to see this wonderful pre-
sentation of the gospel in pictures
and hear Mark Andrews world
famous organist play on his mighty
organ, all of which is faithfully re-
produced by the motion picture
sound system. Do not miss this
service next Sunday.

became the fifty-fourth governor of
Ohio Monday while thousands cheers
ed amid the roar of a 19-gun salute
fired from the big cannon. on the

The last reverberations from the
cannon had scarcely died before the
governor converted his inaugural
platform into a national stage with
an address scaling for economy in
government and states resistance to
federal "abuse."
Eve bow to the exercise Of the
paramount power Of the federal
government within It's proper
sphere" said the man who has been
mentioned as Republican presi-
Dental possibility in 1910. But
representative government must be
founded upon the interests of the
local communities, and the sover-
eighty of the states is but an ex-
preston of that local interest.

THE ROYAL FAMILY, TO BE
PRESENTED JAN. 20 BY THE
ALPHA KAPPA ALPHA SORORITY

One of the great plays of the
twentieth century will be produced
at the Palace theatre next Friday
night by the local chapter Of the
Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority. As
sured capacity crowd, members of
the sorority were late this week
making preparations for the presen-
tation Of a complimentary dance to
patrons Of the play which will fol-
low Immediately after the play in
the Palace ballroom.
When ''The Royal Family was
produced on New York's Broadway
a few years ago, it was hailed as
an important achievement Of the
American theatre. In short time
it was brought to the screen with
brilliant success.
Brooks Atkinson of the New
York Times in his review of the play
said: .The Royal Family proves
the futility of expecting show folks
to beheave like 4pee-pul'. Gwen
representing the third generation
does marry and give birth to a baby.
But she returns automatically.
Julie, who bears the bruat Of the
family disorder, nearly marries an
emerald king, but when she hears
him speaking intelligently about in
telligent subjects and speaking with
superiority about a non-descript
band Of trQupers, she too, succumbs
to the prospect of new play. Only
ill health has kept her feeble mother
from transforming up and down the
