An alarm of fire was sounded on
Wednesday night and created con
siderable excitement. The fire was
located in Hotel Malone. It had
caught from one of the room fire
plaees, where a blaziug fire bad
been kept for a long time, the ex
treme heat causing the sheath
flooring which supported the hearth
to ignite. It bad burned through
to the McNeal Drug store. No ser
ious damage was done.

The Free Movies.
It was Saturday night but the
large school auditorium was filled
with people, to overflowing, eager
to give audience to the moving
picture entertainment promoted
by Smith and Kirkland, the local
dealers in Lincoln and Ford cars
and Fordsou tractors.
The entertainment was in charge
of a special agent from Ford head
quarters in Detroit. He carries
with him a complete outfit and
puts on the exhibition anywhere
without the use of local electricity.
The pictures shown were first
views of the systematic manner in
which the parts are assembled and
fastened together into % a complete
motor car. They were real demon
strations of the use of Motor power
in the operation of lumber mills
and farms and in the building of
godd roads.
The films of the operation of a
motor car factory were badly worn
and did not present clear pictures,
but the audience got a fairly good
understanding how motor*cars are
made. The other films wane bet
ter, and not only demonstrations
but prophecies how future saw
mills will be operated; how crops
will be plaujod, cultivated, har
vested and marketed and how road
building will be revolutionized.
There w'ere also films of seashore
scenes and the doings of Christmas
time. These pictures specially de
lighted the children —and the old
folks as well —in the audience. As
a whole the entertainment was riot
only entertaining but instructive.
It showed the audience a better
way of doing things than by the
slow processes of the past, and
that motor cars and tractors are to
take the places of men and piules
in a large measure in the near fu
t ure.
The Tribune editor was called to
the rostrum and he told the audi
ence as best he could- in a five min
utes talk, the object of the enter
tainment and pointed out its sali
eut features. It was to unleash
the dormant thinking powers of
business men and farmers and
point the way to success in all fu
ture industrial pursuits.
The show was worth while, and
the promoters have the thanks of
the audience for an evening of help
ful diversion.

Entertainment by the Pupils
of the Colored School.
Prof. L. W. Brown, principal of
the Pearson Colored School, just
before going home k>r the holiday
vacatiou, informed the Tribune
that he and his daughter were pre
paring a program for an entertain
ment to be given for the benefit of
the new colored school house to be
erected in the city, and it was
theiy purpose to have it ready by
the second week in February, 1923.
It will be presented two nights
in the High School auditorium, by
permission of the City Board of
Education. It is their purpose to
present the program on Thursday
night for white people and Friday
night for colored people. They do
not w’ant to interfere with the ex
ereises of the high school. And
desire to clean up the building on
Saturday.
Those who attended the closing
exercises of the colored school last
spring know that Prof. Brown and
his daughter do not do things by
halves, and the program they will
present on that occasion will be a
splendid divertissement.

Card of Thanks.
We adopt this method, not being
.able to see each one personally, of
thanking every one who assisted
us at the fire which consumed onr
home in saving our household be
longings and clothing from the rav
ages of the flames. Their kindness
was magnificent and we appreciate
it more than words can express.
No people could have shown greater
friendship than the Pearson p-ople
did on that oeeasion, and we will
never forget them.

superbly. As Mrs. Musliushewas
"Something of a talker.”
To Prof, and Mrs. Cornelius the
audience is indebted' for this de
lightful entertainment. They had
devoted much time to the careful
training of the young actors in the
spirit of the play and the manner
of its presentation.
The Tribune regrets that the in
clemency of the weather prevented
many citizens from attending and
enjoying the play, and cut down
the proceeds to only $25 —a mere
pittance.
The Tribune suggests that the
play bo presented a second time —
some favorable evening in January.
It is quite sure those who saw it
Tuesday night would be pleased to
see and hear it the second time.
And those who could not go Tues
day night would have the oppor
tunity to witness it.
