Nothing now has been brought to Hght up to this time concerning tl>o n sterious disappearance of Mrs. Mary Newton from her home hi Socastee township March 24th, 1919. Foi a time flying news would come to Conway almost every day that she had been found or some new trace of her had been discovered; but since last week, even these untrue stories have stopped. o STORY NOT CONFIRMED. One of the stories going the rounds last week about the disappearance of Mrs. Mary Newton, was to the effect that some evidence had been discovered of foul play in connection with her disappearance; and that several arrests would be made ir. the course of a day or two. This story as well as several others going about could not be confirmed at the time. o FARM LABOR IN STATE. According to the Government report released by B. B. Hare, South Carolina Field Agent of the Bureau of Crop Estimates, U. S.

This screen liama rs described as "The Story F >f a French Village;" an Old-fashoiled play with a New-Fashioned Theme, involving the Sweetest Love Story Ever Told." While Mr. Grif"ith rather objects to its being called i War Picture, he and his company >f players went "over there" to Fiance two years ago, and with the ^ :o-opeiation of the French and Eng- C ish governm; nts, enacted the first v ir.rt of the play in peaceful villages j Tar from the battle front and the I subsequent scenes at the extreme t front line trenches. So while one is d enthralled in the unfolding of the love story of an American boy and a &irl in France, one views the tre- a r^endous World War as seen through f the impartial lense of a motion pic- \ ti.re camera in the midst of huge s moving armies of both German, c French and British troops, roaring 1 batteries of artillery, liquid fire and r gas projectors, and the awo-inspir- tug battle of trench warfare.
