WINTHROP SEEKS IDEAL OF SERVICE Buildings Being Used Continuously During Months of Summer Vacation TVi a X iiv Rock Hill, July 1.?It is becoming more and more a settled idea that the plan of the great educational institutions should be in use all the year and Wiffithrop is fast approachir^; that ideal. Over 2,000 people ha*re met for various activities at the college since commencement May 31. Two days after the students left from every county in the state came 400 women and girls, representing the home demonstration clubs and the tomato and pig and poultry clubs. Before they left the members of the State Sunday School association came in to the number of 727 from outside the city, over 40 counties being X cjy 1 tcu. A few days after this meeting the summer school begun, for which about 1,000 registered during the first few days. There was an attendance of 42 upon the conference of city superintendents and high school principals, held during the past week. Other meetings scheduled during the summer session are a short course for women, July 4 to 16, a conference of nurses and hospital workers, M A/\ /N ^ I AO /*1^ A*?r? O 1 ^ 1 7 a tuiuciciicc ui tcaiiicio vi auuu 11literates, and a conference of members of the League of Women voters. With the opening of the regular session September 21. Winthrop will pretty nearly have fulfilled the ideal of all the year work. In fact, the activities will be suspended only long enough to permit the renovation of the buildings in preparation for the coming session. ( *v < -VIOLA DANA PLAYS engrossing role 4 In "The Offshore Pirate," Coming to Newberry, Has Part of Girl Kidnapped by Pirates Delightful Viola Dana, the effervescent little actress,, will soon be seen by local theatregoers in the stellar role of "The Offshore Pirate," the Metro production which comes to * the opera house on Thursday as the feature attraction. In this unusual picture, which was adapted from the story of F. Scott Fitzgerald, as published in The Saturday Evening Post, Miss Dana has a part that brings out all hter unusual gifts. As Ardita i"arnham, the girl who is stolen by a modern piratical , young man. she excels her previous efforts. The story tells of Ardita Farnam, young, rich and beautiful, whose heart has gone to a scheming foreigner who cleverly plots for her money. Her relations realize what a rogue he is, but Ardita is adamant and intends to marry him. In despair they contrive a plan. Toby Moreland, a happy-go-lucky young fellow, boards Ardita's yacht with a handful of cut throats, and seizes the vessel. Out of this a romance springs?but unexpeo v tedly and after thrilling happenings. "The Offshore Pirate" was adapted for the screen by Waldeiriar Young. Dallas M. Fitzgerald directed, and i the cameraman was John Arnold. The ? art interiors and effects are by A. F.! Mantz. Supporting Viola Dana is the follow-; inc excellent east: Jack Mnhall ns Toby Moreland; Edward Jobson as Uncle John Farnam; and Edward Cecil as Ivan Nevkova, th9 Russian. Critics who have already seen the picture, hail it as a powerful romance, standing far out of the ordinary run of pictures. It radiates life from the very outset until the last satisfying touches, and moves as rapidly as the trim little yacht on which most of the action transpires. The theme has novelty and freshness, distinct tributes both to its original author and to Metro. FORMER PRESIDENT CHIEF JUSTICE !
