Pilcher, commander-in-chief and a national committee of arrangements was created, 1t is headed by Presi- dent Harding as honorary chairman.

Celcbration Plan The nature and scope of the cele- bration is indicated in the following — PALACE — STARTING NEXT SUNDAY Cecil B, De Mille's “FOOL’S PARADISE” Dorothy Dalton—Mildred Harris Conrad Nagel from the resolutions adopted at the Grand Army encampment in Indian apolls, which recommended “Phat the national government he requested to take appropriate action for the observance of the anniversary and the congress of the Unlited States take such measures as may he neces sary to assure the dedication of the Grant memorial at Washington on the 17th of April next, This action on the part of congress we deem of first importance “That the state legislature! govern- ors of the several states and muni cipal officers he urged to take suit. able action and to bring to the at tention of the people, the great les rons taught by General Grant's stead- fast adherence to his country's cause in the time of severest trial, and that all institutions of learning throughout the land be invited to celebrate the notable event, so that the deep em- bodiment of General Grant's life, service and character in the thought and conscience of his contemporaries may be fastened with transforming power upon the minds of the youth of the present gencration Place Of Services “That special commemorative sery ices be held at Point Pleasant, Ohio, the place of his birth, and at River- side, New York, the place of his bur- ial. “That patriotic exercises he held on that day in the schools and churches of the land, that the memorable oc caslon may not pass without leaving deep and abiding impressions upon the hearts of the young, and strength- en the faith of those who believe in the God of our fathers and in the priceless boon of civil and religious liberty. Your committee further recommends that the incoming com- mander in chief be authorized to for- mulate a program or order of exer- cises for the use of posts on that oc- casion, and that all members of the Grand Army of the republic, insofar as they may be able, shall partici- pate in some simple yet direct way in honoring the memory of Ulysses S. Grant. “That all patriotic societies and or- ganizations representing the several wars in which the United States has at any time participated, be request- ed to unite in the celebration of the anniversary, and that the Woman's Relief corps, auxiliary to the Grand Army of the republic, the Ladies’ of the Grand Army of the republic and all orders allied to the Grand Army of the republic, be invited to join — OUR 1921 RECORD — 609 parcels of R.AL ESTATE SOLD Do you own ten lots, ten acres or 100 acres that you want turned into cash?

Grant's birthday anniversary comes almost on the ffty-seventh anniver- sary of General l.ee's surrender at Appomattox which took place on April 9, 1865, At the close of the Civil war, Grant's name Wwas more frequently on the lips of people than that of any other American, unless it was Lincoln. In 1860 he became president and was re-elected to a sec- ond term. So his name continued to be before the people. After retiring from the presidency in 1877 he was for a time less in the public eye, but he still was a favorite. His unfor- tunate business venture some years later excited the sympathy and con- cerns of his friends, It was known that he was reduced almost to pov- erty. Then followed his iliness from thedread disease of which so little is known even now. Complctes Memoirs When Grant began the preparation of his memoirs, he was ill. It became known he was hoping that, when published, the two volumes would yield a competence for his family. His sufferings increased as the work went on, and at last, it became a race between him and death, while man- kind watched and waited in anxiety for the result. Giant conquered for he lived to complete the work. That ac- complished, he welcomed the relief from his sufferings that soon came. That was nearly thirty-seven years ago. Other wars have intervened, great national and international prob- lems have arisen and commanded the attention of the people, and thus the name and the fame of Ulysses 8. jrant have not figured so prominent- ly with the people as they did forty or fifty years ago. But during the more than half a century those veterans who served under him and who loved him, have never wavered in their devotion to his memory. The veterans of the Civil War are fast disappearing. 1n a few years there will be none left, But old and feeble though they be the men- tion of the name of their leader still stirs their martial spirit and awakens fond memories. oring the memor Modern Christmas tree can be traced back to the sixteenth century, originating along the banks of the Rhine. manufacturing plants fn represent an in- of more than $200,- Textile Naorth Carolina capital 000,000. e — e ———— . Of these, RECOMMEND FILMS FOR YOUNG PUPILS Yictorian Council Plans Reforms Sydney, N. 8 W, Feb, 27.—Manyp reforms regarding the exhibition of motion pletures, with special regard to the attendance of children at the performances, were recommended to- day in an official report by the Vie- torian council of education, One of the reccommendations proposed the prohibition of any picture encourag- ing disloyalty, The total attendance at the 808 picture theaters in Australia for the year ending June 30, 1920, was 66,- 000,000, out of a total attendance of 94,000,000 at all amusements, the re- port stated. During the current year the record showed an average at- tendance of 2,000,000 weekly at film theaters, Australia has a picture show for every 6,260 of population; the United States has one for every 6,000, and Great Rritain has one for every 5,800, the report said. School Children Attend Examination of 14 Melbourne schools showed that 45 per cent. of the children attended film exhibitions more than once & week, 11 per cent. attended twice a week and 60 per cent. went once or oftener a week. 20 per cent. reached home after the rest of the family had re- tired, 37 per cent. attending at night while 40 per cent. attended in the afternoon, with 23 per cent. attending btoth day and night. The committee expressed the opinion that no child under 15 years of age should be al- lowed to attend after 6 p. m. on any school day. Even more drastic action has been proposed in New South Wales where a district magistrate, dealing with a number of youthful defendants, was requested by the prosecutor, a repre- sentative of the school department, and by the inspector of the state chil- dren's relief department, to order that the offenders should be prevent- ed from attending picture shows for some time. The prosecutor contend- ed that attendance ‘at picture theaters undoubtedly has had a bad influence upon the children. The court did not accede to the request, pointing out that he could not impose such a sen- tence legally. 19 YEAR OLD FATHER DROWNS BABY SON Out of Work, Couldn't With Him, So He Decided To Kill It. Have Child New York, Feh, 27.——Walter Liddle, 19 years old, drowned his 8-months- old son William, in the bathtub at his home in the Bronx yesterday after- noon. The boy left the dead child in the tub and went downtown to tell his wife, 18 years old. They were separated but friendly. She and her folks refused to believe him, so Liddle started back with her brothers to prove it. On the way they met a policeman Several desirable building lots. H. D. HUMPHREY TEL.

The brothérs called the police after they had lifted the baby from the tub. Liddle was arrested on a charge of homicide. He is held without bail, The boy. had heen out of work two vears, because, he said, of recurrent influenza attacks. He and his wife had parted because lLiddle couldn't maintain her and the child in a sepa- rate home and neither could get along with the other's family. So Liddle decided since he couldn't have the j baby with “him, he would kill it “and * |} leave the electric chair to kill me.” In his cell he was grief-stricken, but not remorseful. He said he would do the same thing if the baby still were alive. He is a nice looking, well reared youth, and doctors couldn’t detect in him any outward signs of insanity. Liddle told his wife when he took the baby, dressed in its Sunday best, from her yesterday afternoon, that she never would see it alive again. Mrs. Liddle cuddled the child, kisssq it, and told Walter to ‘“hush yéur foolishness.” She and her family and Liddle's mother all were proctrated when they realized that Liddle's story was true. must now be the first pen Natirdas Vs enines Economy order of the day—that stout econo- my which ever demands better prod- ucts and better values.
