The program at The Lyric
Saturday night was fully in ac-
cord with-the splendid record
this show has made.
The popularity of motion pict-
ures has become world-wide,
and aside from the entertain-
ment afforded, their scope of
usefulness in educational and
other lines of endeavor is unlim-
ited.
The pictures presented at The
Lyric are the product of lead-
ing film corporations. They are
not turned out in a haphazard
way. A retinue of the best ac-
tors are employed, and many
pictures that are shown at ten
cents admission, cost enough
money to buy several black land
farms,
A feature of Saturday night's
program was a gripping comedy,
the climax of which was worth
the price of admission.

Cotton Receipts
Public Weigher Young said
Wednesday that the receipts at
the cotton yard were about 2600
bales,, and that the total receipts
for the season would, in his opin-

cotton crop was short, Cumby
has received more than was ex-
pected, some of it coming from lo-
calities that has heretofore
gone to other towns.
