Lord Not On Grand
Jury, So Negro Would
Not Confess His Sins
ST. LOUIS. Mo., Feb. 20—A story
was told here recently of the conver
sion of a negro at a rural religious
services who gave a very sound rea
son for his refusal to make a confes
sion of his sins before the congrega
tion.
He stood up in his pew and declared
that he was a changed man. The path
led straight though narrow before
him, he said, and the road signs car
ried full directions to the pearly gates.
The minister called for the brother
to “go all the way.” He should mount
the pulpit and relate the errors of his
past, he said. He should bare his bos
om in repentance.
The saved one vowed he could not
do that. It was unthinkable. “Jest
can’t do it, lie declared.”
“The Lord desires it. He requires
that all His children make full con

OYSTER TRADE
HARD HIT BY
HEALTH BAN
—
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 20
Reports reaching here from the lower
Potomac and from the eastern shores
of Maryland and Virginia make it cer
tain that the recent typhoid scare in
mideastern cities followed in some
cases by an embargo, has almost kill
ed the oyster industry over night. The
oyster men naturally are very resent
ful of the reproach at the door of the
unfortunate bivalve. They say that
Chesapeake Bay oysters were never
in better condition that this season.
But the oyster boats are tied up at
the docks, the oyster houses are closed
and thousands of oyster shuckers are
out of w'ork in one of the hardest win
ters the shores of the Chesapeake Bay
has ever known. The State of Mary
land is thoroughly aroused over the
threat to one of its leading industries
and had ordered a complete survey of
all the oyster beds. The survey will
not start before March 1 at the earli
est and will not be completed until
the oyster season is at an end. So it
will not relieve the situation of the
next few months which spelled ruin
to the oyster business. There has been
typhoid fears before and occasionally
the outbreak of the disease has been
laid to oysters, but never before now
has there been such an effect on the
business.
More than 5,000 men are out of work
in the oyster district, and conditions
are said to be bad. The radio is the
cause of the embargo on oysters, the
owmers of the beds say, as they have
broadcasted several cases of typhoid
with the remarks that they wrere caus
ed by oysters.
Famous Characters
Brought To Screen
Abe Potash and Morris Perlmut
ter.
Without a doubt those names are
more common throughout the entire
world than those of any other liv
ing or dead. They are the brain cre
ations of Montague Glass, the law
yer-author, and from the beginning
of their appearance on the maga- J
zine page they have grown in popu
larity to such an extent that their
fame is now international.
These famous cloak and suit part
ners started their careers as the cen
tral figures of a series of short sto
ries which appeared in a prominent
magazine. It was only a few months
before their vogue had spread so
rapidly that thousands upon thou
sands of persons bought the periodi
cal solely for the purpose of reading
what Abe and Morris had been do
ing.
From there is was but a step to the
speaking stage, where for years the
roles of the partners have been por
trayed by Barney Bernard and Alex
ander Carr. It was one of the big
gest money-makers in the history of
the stage.
Now it has been made into a mo
tion picture by Samuel Goldwyn un
der the direction of Clarence Badger,
and it will be the feature tonight
at the Liberty treater. Bernard and
Carr play their original roles in the
screen version, with Vera Gordon
appearing as co-star. Other screen
luminaries in this First National pic
ture are Martha Mansfield, Hope
Sutherland, Ben Lyon, De Sacia
Mooers, Lee Kohlmar, Eduard Du
rand, and Jerry Devine.
