"As No Man Has Loved" Exalts Pariotism Rased on Hale's Classic. A Washington's Birthday special at the WSynewood Theatre. No story written within the past five generations has had a greater circulation than the classic, "The Man Without a Country," which has been transposed to the screen by William Fox under the title, "As No Man Has Loved." It is one of the sensations of the current theatrical season, hav ing just closed a long engagement in New York. It will be seen at the Waynewood Theatre on Feb. 22nd.' The story was written by Edawrd Everett Hale. It is said to have been more widely read than any American work. .. The reason lies deep. The migh-i tiest motive that ever swayed the human heart is the love of country, home and family. This picture un- folds' the tale of Lieutenant . Nolan, who, in a sudden rage, cursed the United States and swore he wished never to see nor hear of its again. Doomed by a court martial to have his wish, he was transferred from ship to ship for fifty-six years; never allowed to set foot on land; never permitted to get a letter; never al lowed to hear these 'Jhome," "counrty" "United States" nor -family." Every man waa forbidden to mention those subjects in his presence. Repenant and loving bis country a few men ever did, he felt the world go by ' without sharing in its happenings. He knew that the country he had foresworn must have become greater, but he knew not how. He didnt even know the name- of the President at Washington, nor could he learn wheth er the sweetheart of his young man hood lived. And yiat loyal sweet heart suffered as much as he, for her entire life was spent in appealing to the powers to let him come home. From the first administration of Jef ferson to the second of Lincoln, she haunted the White House begging for that pardon. It remained for Lin coln to sign it and hand it to her, but it came too late. She was seventy: , eight and she died while waiting on the pier at Charleston for the ship to bring him back. "The Man With out a Country," wept for joy as Lin. coin's message reached him; then he died. One of the reasons for the tremen dous popularity of this epic lies in the fact that the message of love of home, country, and family is in tha heart of the American people, and Dr. Hale's story had much to do With spreading that sentiment. His story was written in 1863 during the heat of the struggle to preserve the na tion's unity. It was the first story ever published in this country that had a circulation of a million copies. That number came from the presses in one year. Thousands of copies were poured into the White House from all over the country, and so cieties caused a half million to be sent to the soldiers in the field. Millions of additional copies followed when the war was over. Every sdiool child read it. During the World War, statesmen realized the mighty force of this un dying tale, and printing presses turn ed out the story "The Man Without a Country" by the millions. Italy sent 3,000,000 copies to her soldiers. Germany adapted it to her own pur pose and sent 5,000,000 to her fight ing men. Various American, English and French societies issue even more. Rowland V. Lee, a virile young American who was wounded at thq Somme and who proved that ne, too, loved his country, directed this pic ture. He has been praised by thous ands for his grasp of the tremen dous theme. CLYDE CULLINGS. Mr. Wm. A. Band, editor of tho Waynesville Mountaineer, was in Clyde last Thursday and succeeded in getting the writer to agree to serve again as Clyde's correspondent for the Mountaineer. We have already serv ed several years in this capacity and therefore think the editor should have selected some one else, rjvery sec tion of the county should have a good correspondent to write regularly the news of his community and thus muku our county paper what it should be. What has become of former corre spondents, "Good Indian" and "Old Top?" And where is F. A. Justice, of Crubtree? They were all good ones. Get back on the job, boys, and let us help our good editor, if pos sible, make our old county paper just a little more .interesting to read. A good newspaper, like the Way nesville Mountaineer, costing less than four cents a week, should go into every home in Haywood county. Every boy and girl in the county should form the habit of reading tho county paper and thus be able to discuss intelligently current events, Let all who read this article see to it that our paper shall be a regular visitor to each home throughout thc county and elsewhere. Mr. J. J. Ensley, who was 73 yearr. old and one of Clyde's best and most lespected citizens, died last Friday and laid to rest last Sunday afternoon in Plesant Hill cemetery. During the funeral exercises at the M. E. Church very impressive-and helpful remarks were made by Revs. W. G. Warren, J. M. Haynes, C. C. Williams and B. B. Jones. The masonic fraternity had charge of the body and conduct ed the exercises at the grave In a very profound and interesting man ner as has been their custom from time immemorial. "Old Top," (li. B. Smith) of Lake Juiraluska, visited our "burg" last Sunday and conversed with this scribe quite awhile. It is hoped that he will soon decide to resume his duties as Lake Junaluska's splendid local cor respondent. His former communica tions were enjoyed by the reading public. Get busy with your facile pen, Mark. ; Captain A. E. Ward, Lake Juna luska's efficient post master, was here last Sunday and contributed $50.00 for the new Baptist church according to promise. The membership appreci ates this very liberal donation and his generosity. $5,500.00 has already been expended on this modern struc ture and $8,000.00 More will be need- ed for 1W - omplatiofe Let others, anywhere U the ceunty aad elsewhere, follow Caps. Ward's example and help the Baptist here who have been liberal 1 is. assisting other denomina tlons. M. B. S. V - T" . ' ' ' -' SERVICE FOR BOX SCOUTS.
