FFINE LOVE THEME
DEVELOPED IN BIG
ARBUCKLE PICTURE
George Melford’s Production “The
Round Up,’’ Has Strong
Story
The sacrifice of love and honor on
the altar of love is the masterful
theme developed in George Melford’s
magnificent production of the big
stage success. “The Round Up,” star
ring Roscoe Arbuckle, which will be
shown at the Alcazar Theater today
and tomorrow, Thursday and Fri
day.
Dick Lane goes out prospecting,
leaving the girl he loves in the care
of Jack Payson, his best friend. Dick i
strikes it rich, but on his way back j
is robbed and tortured by a band of ,
Indians. He is found and taken by
friends to a hospital. A report comes
home that he is dead. Jack wooes
and wins the girl and the wedding
date is set.
A short time after, Jack receives a
letter from Dick, saying he is alive,
and enclosing another letter for the
girl. It is then that Jack sacrifices
honor for love, tears up the letters
and withholds from the girl the news
that her former lover is still alive.
The picture is also filled with ex
cellent comedy—thanks to Roscoe
Arbuckle, who by arrangement with
Joseph M. Schenck stars in the role
jf Slim Hoover, the fat sheriff, the
role that was essayed in the stage
i production by Maclyn Arbuckle.
I George Melford directed and the cast
is far abovq the average. Mabel Jul
! ienne Scott plays opposite the star.
THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER.
GIBBS TELLS OF
EUROPE’S NEEDS
Noted War Writer Brings
Message To
America
(Continued from PaPge 1 )
Before the old men can make war,
they must be supported by bellicose
nations.
“Now you know by publicity, by
propaganda, by press and pulpit and
forum you can so arouse a nation that
you can make it bellicose.
“It should be possible by the same
means to make it easier to submit dif
ferences—if any there be—to tri
bunals.
"Argue, discuss, consider, weigh,
do anything honorable before re- j
sorting to final arbitrament of arms i
which, if resorted to soon again, will
destroy the civilization of the j
white race.
“But I am not a pessimist. lam ,
an optimist. I have faith and hope. I
I think youth will make itself mani- j
fest.
“There is a great stirring in the
world which is not yet represented
in our governments. Fact is, most
of the governments of Europe mis
represent the aspirations, ideals and
wishes of their people.
“That was manifest at the meeting ,
of the Assembly of the League of j
Nations at Geneva.
“The same old ideas seemed to pre
vail because in the main the same ,
old statesmen spoke for the govern
ments of the big nations.
“But those old men won’t always
go on living. They will die. The
younger men with the newer ideals
j will come into power.
League Needs America.
j ' “That is what makes the League of
Nations an instrument of good for
tomorrow. It would have been infi
nitely stronger even yesterday at
Geneva had America been in it.
“Americans, with their frank dis
regard for the niceties and finesse of
old-world diplomacy, would have
dared speak out with candor and
truth.
“They would not have smothered
things. They would not have post
■ poned things for the sake of pre
i serving harmony or for the sake of
I keeping unruffled, the feelings of the
• old fogey school of politicians, states
men and diplomats.
“I believe America will come into
the league.
“I believe it will help make it
broader and bigger and more worka
ble.
"I believe it will help make it an
instrument of healing for a sick
world. America can help make it • a
bulwark against the stupendous fell: j
of war.
This is the message from Europe
that Sir Philip Gibbs brings to.

3 Attemps Made To
Steal Dawson Cars
DAWSON, Feb. 3.—-Daring at
tempts were made Saturday night to
steal automobiles from the garages
of three prominent citizens.
The would-be robbers first broke
into the garage of R. L. Saville, roll
ing his large touring car as far down
the street as Judge W. H. Gardner’s
residence, where it was for some rea
son abandoned. They next went to
the home of Dr. Guy Chappell. Dr
Chappell heard some one cranking his
car and rushed out and found it on
the other side of the street from his
home. G. W. Dozier’s garage was
the next one visited. Mr. Dozier was
awakened by the noise and fired sev
i eral shots at the intruders, which
I frightened them away.
