Important changes iti the plans fot

Daughters and others who attend the
Southern Confederacy Reunion at
Ilpusfui. Octolier f . H. 7 ami 8 aud
which will be of interent to the 100 or
more who ex| ect to attend the He-
union from Grayson County, have
been made by the Reunion executive
committee, according to Information
.received by < nptalu J. C. Witcher of
I this city.
I The Reunion, committee has been
compelled to change its plan of hous-
j inj; the Veterans. They will be plac-
j ed in school houses, instead of under
ten's as first planned. A central mess
hall has been established where meals
will be furnished the veterans without
cost, and every possible arrangement
is being made for their comfort and
convenience.
It has been Impossible to seCure/eots
and blankets from the government,
and veterans are therefore asl^ed to
brinif their blankets with them. Mat-
tresses have been purchased for the
veterans to sleep on. and it is believeu
tnat they will lie milch more com-
fortable under this plan than they
would on cotA in the encampment.
Capt. Witcher states that the rail-
roads have agreed to allow stop-overs
both coming aiid going on the reunion
tlckes, which are to ls sold at the re-
duced rate of 1 cent per mile each
way. provided the purchaser presents j

There has l ecn quite u little si ecu
bitlou as to the thread of the story
interwoven around "Jerry" the photo
play by Miss Dorothy Yates, in which
Miss l4ike Wilson plays the title role.
Mr. Jlanstoii, when be made the se-
lection of Miss Yale's story took info
consideration the fact that there was
not u single phase of her nlay which
left a Imd taste In your mmitli, but
showed only the sweet loveable side
of our star. • 'Hie same applies to each
of the characters.
Jerry, a young slip of a country girl
out skirts of nberman loved by all
who have the giswl fortune to know
her, is finally granted permission to
go to the city to attend «chdol with
her chum, where she meets a boy friend
at a society picnic. Shortly after this
announcement Is made by a telephone
operator that she has heard her"Dad"
lielng murdered while listening over
the telephone.
The murder is then shrouded iu
mystery as Is also the person of an un-
expected visitor to the Old Man's
home, but all H evently cleared up by
"Jerry's new found admirer. who
looses bis bachelor button as well as
his heart.
A noteworthy departure in the en-
semble work of this company has I ►ecu
made in the u*e of a siieeially con-
structed reed organ, securing sym-
phonic efforts never before heard lu
