i %, The Chqrch is the only divine institution in the world. Men may found governments, establish
colleges, organize fr;aterngl lodges, but only Christ, the Son of God, could say, ‘‘On this Rock—faith
in 1112 m %;the world s Savior, will T build my Chu reh, and the gates of hell shall not prevail againstit.”’
. e Church is to be supported and promoted by human agents. God could convert the world
by B.'WOPd, as he created the material universe, but He works through men for men.
3. Therefore, men and women, honored by the invitation to be His partners in the work of saving
souls, should do their share in the partnership. This means organization, intensive work, and this
makes necessary ’fhe schoql of training and the drill-ground, which are to be found only on the Sab
bath and in public worshlp. All partners of God are under high obligation to attend public worship.
And all who are not Christiads should like wise attend for the benefits to them.

Near-Hawaiian Troical Play
Given Adequate Presentation
By DUDLEY GLASS. .
“The, Bird of Paradise,” though
an interesting and entertaining
play of the “Madam Butterfly”
type, has suffered the loss of
plumage in the seven or eight
years' journey from Broadway to
Exchange place. Perhaps it is be
cause we have been surfeited by
Hawaiian music manufactured by
one of Remjck's or Shapiro’s one
finger pianists and interpreted by
saddle-colored and sad-eyed na
tives of Decatur street swathed in
shredded-wheat kilts; petrhaps it
is because the hopelessly mate
rial American soul can not recon
cile itself to a storm which turns
midday into darkness in 30 sec
onds and rain which falls stead
ily and noisily in a segment of a
perfect circle over the back of the
stage and leaves the center and
front perfectly dry for an extend
ed dialogue. Or it may be that
we theatergoers, grown accus
tomed to the movie director's at
tention to the eternal verities,
sustain a shock by seeing a fat
Kanaka on the shores of a trop
ical island picking a tune on a
Sears-Roebuck guitar catalogued
at $2.98, postpaid. ;
But it is easy to imagine the
furore «in New York when Mr.
Tully introduced his topical and
tropical drama to an audience
completely fed-up with ecrime
dramas and musical comedies.
One can readily imagine how the
tired business men from Sioux
City and Tampa, in New York
to rest their nerves and buy a
spring stock, were stirred by the
plaintive strains of “Aloha-Oe"”
as played by genuine Sandwich
Islanders squatting in the shade
of a genuine palm tree. And one
can visualize the dangerous crush

Madge Evans, a movie star at the
age of 9, and propably the most pup

There are fourteen other members

ful admirers, and no less than a doz
tn called on her Saturday morinng.
She is already “booked up” for a
week, for box parties and other en
tertainments.
Unlike a large majority of the
yonunger film celebrities, Madge is not
conceited or ‘“spoiled” in the least.
She is just a child,. with childish
whims ard desires, and very modest
and retiring among strangers.
s3he has been in pictures for three

Madee's ambition in life is to be a

No More Wheat Flour
For This State While
Present Supply Lasts
No more wheat flour or part
wheat flour will be shipped into
Georgia until the State uses up
what is left on hand, it was an
nounced Staurday at the offices
of the Georgia food administra
tion. The embargo on flour ship
ments went into eéfect at once,
and it was ordered that newspa
per publication would be deemed
sufficient notice to shippers, deal
ers and the general public.
At the same time it was or
dered that no firms or stores
which began business since Jan
uary 1, 1918, shall receive any
shipments of flour or sugar from
any source. This is designed to
protect the older and established
stores,
Georgia has complied with the
restrictions on flour consumption
so well that a reserve supply has
accumulated within the State.
This is not large, but ample for
all needs for a short period, if
fairly distributed by jobbers and
retailers. The embargo will per
mit all that flour scheduled for
shipment to Georgia to be sent
directly to the Allies. The order
will be amended or rescinded
when conditions make this neces
sary. In any section which is
threatened with a shortage of
flour, reports should be made to
the State administration.

in the exits after the second act,
when 846 members of the song
smiths’ union, New York Lecal
No. 48, and 73 prominent manu
facturers of mandolins and musi
cal instruments rushed madly to
- their workshops to build Ha
waiian songs and ukuleles in time
to advertise them in the morn
ing papers. gFor ‘“The Bird of
Paradise” is responsible—and its
owners admit it brazenly—for the
deluge of almost Hawaiian near
music which, being played in
vaudeville houses, has done so
much to popularize the movies.
It isn't the faulit of Mr. Tully’'s
play, perhaps, that it doesn’t
seem to carry so much illusion
in 1918 as in 1911, or there
abouts. And certainly it isn't the
fault of the players, who give the
play a thoroughly good presenta
tion, after an evident stiffness in
the first act has worn away. It
must be that we have been so
surfeited by imitations that we
can not appreciate the genuine
article.
Miss Celete Scudder makes a
very attractive heroine as Luana,
the Hawaiian girl, and Joha
Warner, though unexplainably
stilted in the first act, plays the
fallen American very capably in
his later scenes. The best bit<n
the play, however, is that of
John Waller, as Dean, the drunk
en beachcomber, and Miss Helen
Carew shares its honors with
him. The cast 'is composed of
several dark-skinned persons who
pick upon ukuleles and guitars
and a sufficient number of Amer
ican actors to fill the stage at
curtain time. The stage man
ager is to be praised for cutting
the hula-hula dance so short that
its dullness scarcely is notice
able.

sentative of the World Film Com
pany, who promised to buy her a
bulldog.
She has already chosen a name for
her pet. If it is a “boy” pup, he is to
receive the monicl er of Bill, but if it
happens to be a “little girl” the name
of “Tcots,” she thought, would prove
very appropriate.
Madge says she likes Atlanta an
av ful lot, and is having a “glorious”
time.
But for the life of her she can’t
understand where Peachtree street
got its name.
“I don’t see why they call it Peach
tree,” she said; ‘‘there are no peach
treces on it.
“But I like Atlantayand I think all
tha little girls who have come to see
me avce just fine. One of them said
she liked me better off the screen than
in the pictures. I want everybody to
like me, because that will help me
to be a star when I grow up.”

Bonus on Tin Cans
Brings Shower That
Deluges East Point
To begin at the beginning,
which is unusual but nevertheless
permitted by leading authorities,
the East Point Woman's Club
this spring started a clean-up
the-town movement‘.
The most prominent feature of
the backyards and alleys was the
übiquitous tin can, breeder of
mosquitoes and blot upon the
landscape.
“We will offer to all school
children 25 cents a hundred for
tin cans delivered in the lot be
hind the City Hall” voted the
Woman's Club. “That should
bring in a few.”
It did. It Dbrought armfuis,
drays full, wagons full. The col
lection of tin cans spread over
Fast Point youth like an epi
demic. The cans began arriving
at dawn, and the delivery contin
ued long after darkness. That
extra hour of daylight was de
voted to chasing the can in its
native lair.
The visible supply of tin cans
was exhausted in the first two
days, 'but still they continued to
come. Investigation revealed
hat the East Point Club was
t)aylng 25 cents a hundred for
cans which had formerly orna
mented College Park, Hapeville
and even Atlan‘a.
The club held”a special session
Friday afternoon and discovered
t had paid out $37.50 for tin
\ eans; owed $35 for that day’s de
liveries, which could not bhe paid

Central Bible
Class Lesson
For Sabbath
By DR. GEORGE DOWEY.
Lesson text, Mark 8:1-9:1; centive
truth, “Loyalty.”
War time is a testing time of a cit~ '
izen's loyalty more than any other
time. There is a recognized foreign
enemy to aid whom means treason
to the homeland. The Government
makes certain requirements of its cit
izens—bearing arms, Liberty bonas,
income tax, saving of food and fuel.
Failure to meet these requirements
to the best of one’s ability is aiding
the enemy and is dislovalty.
Between sin and salvation, war
time is all the time. In this lesson
The Great Captain states conditions
of loyalty for His followers. First,
Peter, speaking for the disciples,
makes the great confession of Christ’s
divinity. Once a man recognizes the
divine authority of Jesus Christ, three
conditions of loyalty are required of
him (Mk. 8:34): (1) “Let him deny
himself.” That is, say to himself when
self s demanding certain rights, priv
ileges or pleasures, “I don't know you,
you have no claim upon me.” Peter
cne night denied his Lord, swore he
didn’t know Him. Later he swore off
knowing self, and his Lord had every
claim upon him. Citizen John Jones
sald, “I must look after my private
interests.” Uncle Sam sald, “You
are drafted, your country's interests
are first; deny yourself and come.”
(2) “Take up the cross.” The cross
here does not mean an affliction or a
burden to bear—a drunken husband,
an {ll-tempered wife, lumbago, paver
ty, or a rebellious child—not at all.
The cross Is the sinner's refuge, the
Christian’s defense. FHe hides under
its shadow and is safe. The cross
means the crucifixion of sin, refuge
from the guilt and power of sin. That
is why the devil hateg the cross and
makes it appear to be a bugbear and
a burden to many. Don't run away
from the cross; run under it, as un
der a shelter from a storm.
(3) “And follow me.” Whither,
Lord? Can never tell, but verse 31
points a possible path, See the sign
boards-—‘‘suffer,” “rejected,” 'killed,”
but “rise again.” Christian martyrs
are not all of the early centuries.
“Toxe’'s Book of Martyrs” will not
compare with modern tales of Chrs
tian loyalty and heroism. Thausands
of men have gone into the European
trenches to suffer and die vicariously,
ingpired by the hope to “rise again.”
My loyalty to Christ is measured by
what I am willing to give up, what I
am willing to give out, and where I
am willing to go for His cause.

Protests Revoke =~
Sidewalk Plans
Over the protest of Councilman
Bell, of the Fifth Ward, the street
committee of Council Friday after
‘nr)on revoked the order for the con
struction of sidewalks and curbing on
McMillan street, after Attorney Car
roll Latimer had appeared as a prop
erty owner and objected, claiming
that he would be compelled to spend
$440 on lcts ten feet below the street.
Mr, Bell insisted that children have to
walk through the mud to get to the
