Barnett, who is able to bo with us again.' The program was a Btudy of women of the toible, ns follows: “ Woman, her .Creation and Transgressiofi, ” Mrs. S. L. Book:' “Ruth, the Model Daughter-in-law, ” Mrs. Warren .Melsou i “Hannah, the RewArdod Mother,” Mm, ;R, a-. wonion of the Now Testament we find 1 that Jesus crowned woman with His con fidence. He preached to one woman at Jacob’s well, and His sermon wns far-reaching in its results. ' He told lior that .Ho was the Christ. He first an nounced to a woman that Ho was tho Lord of tho Resurrection. Women fol lowed Him and ministered unto Him, being last at the cross and first ot the tomb. On that Easter morning an an gel -of God commissioned them to go and tell His disciples that He was risen from the dead. The best example of self- denying liberality, in the biblo is recorded of woman; t|» best example o# loving' service is recorded of woman; the best example of conquering prayer is re- corded of woman. The gift was- a wid ow’s mite; tho service war the anointing of Jesus with a box of precious ointment; the prayer was a mother's prayer for a daughter possessed with an evil spirit. Jesus never let fall such words of royal commendation as those concerning these women. Of the poor widow He said, ■* Sho hath cast In more than they all. ’ ’ Of Mary He said, “She hath done what she could, and wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the 'whole world there shall this also, that this woman hath done be told for a memorial of her.” To the Canaanitish mother He said, “O, woman, great is thy faith I Be it unto thee, even as thou wilt,” giving her the keys of earth and heaven and the liberty to go out and possets “ all. Mrs. Cliff Loftin read a paper on The Real Criminal,” touching upon tho recent terrible tragedies occurring in different sections of the Union, and pronounced the arch criminal Alcohol. Mrs. T. E. Ansloy read an article, A Sad Picture,” the sentence of a young man not 21 to life imprisonment for a drunken murder. The discussions were animated, as woman's discussions usually are.. It waB decided to ubo tlie interest on the •$100 bequeathed by tlie late T. M. Thompson to the W. O. T. U. to buy a medal to be offered in an annual temper ance essay contest, to bo known as tlie Thompson Memorial Medal. A bright woman present said she did not see how any woman could object to giving $1 a year for a membership in the W. C. T. U. If she did not have time to at tend, her money can represent her in the cause. A wise statesman says, “If we allow the prohibition amendment to lie destroyed it will bring back upon hu manity a curse greater than war itself.’ Mrs. T. E. Ansley will arrange til “Sabbath Observance” program for the May meeting. X. L. 0. HIGH SCHOOL NOTES. Wednesday afternoon, April 27, New- nan High School played the District A. and M. School. From beginning to end tho game abounded in the unexpected. Ncwnan was leading until the ]q s t half of the ninth inning, when some weird fielding by our team permitted the vis itors to overcome a two-run lead and win the game. The final score was 7 to 6 in favor of A. & M. However, on Sat urday afternoon we redeemed ourselves in a game with Carrollton High, played at Carrollton,-tho score .beiug J to 2 in ^ 0r „ 0f * 0 ™ aD - afternoon, illy 6, at J:30, we will play Carrollton at Lee Park. If the people of Newman expect ns to do our best in these intar-schooj events it is high time that they get behind ns.

So don’t judge the service we can render you by the size of the store. We sell nearly everything the average per son wants or needs from a drug store, and those who buy from us get just as good merchandise—generally the same merchandise—as elsewhere, and get it at reasonable cost.

McCalla Alamo Theatre Week Beginning May 9 MONDAY -IN— TUESDAY Wanda Hawley Douglas Fairbanks -IN- ‘The Outside Woman’ “The Mark of Zorro” Her husband should have locked up his precious idol before he went to work that morning. Wifey saw a bar- gaiiy and jtradpd off one of his most im portant? treasures, and when she learn ed it was worth thousands she was in despajr, but when Gussie, the maid, told her that the artist upstairs had bought the idol from the junk man, she decided to get it back, using the convenient fire-escape for her adven ture ; but the poor girl got into a peck of trouble before she recovered the ugly little idol. Educational Comedy, “NAUGHTY MARY BROWN” WEDNESDAY Thomas Meighan Marion Davies —IN- You have no doubt often wished you had enough money so that you would not have to worry about anything, and could devote all your time to things which interest you, but did you ever stop to think what effect it would have on your taste and disposition? “The Easy Road” shows just what this situ ation might bring you to. It’s a fine, big story, well told, with a strong cast— a Paramount picture. See this picture; you’ll like it, and think about it after ward. The cast includes such stars as Gladys George, Grace Woodall, Arthur Carew, Lila Lee, Laura Anson, Viora Dapiels, and others. Torchy Comedy, “Torchy Comes Through” FRIDAY Douglas McLean Never before has Douglas Fairbanks been so enthusiastic over the success and admiration of a picture than he is over “The Mark of Zorro,” which is from the story of Johnson McCulley, “The Curse of Capistrano,” which ran in the All-Story Magazine. Critics who haye seen the picture proclaim that Fairbanks has excelled any of his pre vious performances, due to some ex tent to the ingenious story, and the op portunities offered Doug to make use of his athletic ability. Picture here for ONE DAY only, opening at 1 p. m, Complete show every hour and a half. Fox New*. THURSDAY IN “The Easy Road” “Buried Treasure” Miss Davies, in the role of Pauline Vandermuellon, daughter of a Wall street capitalist, is about to marry thp man of her father’s choice when she is carried into another world by spirits. She becomes a Castilian maid of the sixteenth century, and many of the suc ceeding scenes take place on pirate ships. It’s a novel idea, and Cosmopol itan has made it into one of the most lavish and beautiful pictures of the kind ever produced. With its quaint costumes and brilliant setting this pic ture, along with dramatic appeal, is worth your attention, and one that will be sure to please. Fox New* SATURDAY Franklyn Farnum IN 99 “Chickens ■ A crowing romance of a rich young rqoster who started out to scratch for himself, all in a basket of strictly fresh laughs, served with the sunny side up.

IN The Struggier” The courage of a man in the depths of despair—the penalty of thoughtless ness; the price of folly and the joy and true love which passes all understand ing—all , are found. in this picture, which is absorbingly interesting.
