OF VOLUNTEER BILL

The volunteer army bill recently
signed by the president provides
for the organization of volunteers
forces in the time of war. The
advantages of the new measure are
that it will enable plans to be
formulated and put into workable
shape. so that volunteers can be
speedily organized at. the outbreak
Of war. II should prevent the pay
ment Of bounties: it will do away
with short term service, with sll its
evils, by procuring the necessary
number of men at the beginning of
a war for a long period; drafting
should be unnecessary; it should
make for a saving of men and
money during the war and decrease
the pension list thereafter; and
the law itself involves no appro.
prlation of money.
The bill practically makes the vol
unteer army subject to the regula-
ton that govel ms the regulars. The
president receives absolute author.
ity for making an organization of
the forces into brigades and divis-
ions regardless of state lines. The
identity of the volunteers will be
lost as soon as they enter the
service. The officers are to be APP
pointed by the president, not for
particular organizations, but for
the arm of the service subject to
assignment for service by the war
department.
The bill provides that no ap-
pointment shall be made under the
act above the grade of colonel
The number Of staff officers to be
appointed under the bill shall not
exceed one for each 200 enlisted
men. Volunteer chaplains may be
appointed in the ratio of one for
each regiment. The president may
accept the recommendations of
governor in appointing officers, or
may take them from the regular
list or from the militia in the
state. Appointments are to be
made on the. basis Of population
and as far as practicable from
the localities whence the troops
come.
Preference is given in these ap.
point nents to men VINO have had
honorable service in the regular
army, militia or volunteer service.
Preference is also given-to gradu-
ates of military schools. But the
bill limits the number of regular
army officers no may serve in any
one regiment at the same time tc
four, in a battalion to one. The
bill requires that temporary vac
ancies shall he. filled by promotions
from the lower grades in order of
seniority. The records of the ser-
vice r to be turned over to the
adiutant general in Washington and
by him held to prevent the compli-
cations that followed the civil war,
where the state records of service
conflict often with the war depart.
ment records of the service of
soldiers in the states regiment.
The bill provides for the establish
ment Of recruiting stations and the
appointment Of special volunteer
recruiting officers to recruit and
instruct soldiers, to the end that
the regiments may be kept recruit
ing Up to their full strength at all
times.

THE BRUTE" SHOWN
 IN FOX'S PICTURE

Great interest has been manifested already with the announcement made in these columns a short time ago to the effect that the critical New Brit sin theatergoers will be offered at Fox's theater attractions that are not surpassed in excellence by any others or the market. The famous Players films are the most expensive and most sought for productions by all of the i bigger and best motion picture theaters throughout the country. The cast of each individual attraction bears the name of one of Broadway's most popular stars who had been in- dLced to enter the field of the silent drama with tempting offers. and he is supported by select dramatic ar lists, engaged at no small cost. The features will be offered for two days each, with the single reels changed every day.
 The first Famous Players film to inaugurate this new policy is offered today and is one that has met with the biggest of success and jumped in instantaneously at the initial show ing, and the Fox patrons will see this masterful production today and to- morrow. It is Daniel Frohman, the legitimate manager of New York who presents Malcolm Willia ms. the promi- rent dramatic actor in the famous drama or strong mans triumph over woman's pride. entitled: "The Brute" by Frederick Arnold Kimmer. Malcolm Williams. one of the fore- most character delineators on the stage, makes his initial appearance in motion pictures in The Brute" great and vital drama of today and all the time. The Brute" Is a power fu' portrayal of the world old conflict Of the sexes, as old as the hills, yet

new as tomorrow's dawn. It is a tense drama of the clash of wills be- tween a strong man and naughty. avaricious woman, the climax of which hangs in the balance until the man, in righteous indignation. exerts his full physical strength toward the subjugation of the woman. How he asserts his supremacy, and eventually conquers and forgives his mercenary and willful wife is vividly portrayed in the further development and finale of this excitingly realistic drama that will reach the great heart of the masses. Besides this stellar and great production four other reels of interest will be offered, rounding out two solid hours of refined, diversified and pleasing entertainment, made up of The Sob Sister," two powerful reels from the Universal studio with a story that teaches a great moral lesson, An Indian Eclipse" an Indian drama of worth, and Universal Ike" showing Universal Ike Junior in the dangers of a great city. which Is a roaring comedy with young Ike at the helm. The production of "The Brute" will also be offered Sunday with a change of the single reels, and instead of the ones mentioned above Willie, |" a Selig two part excruciatingly funny comedy and three other equally as good stories will be shown.

Children Will Sometimes Cry After
 Forgetting What They Began Crying For Mothers Should Be Clear in Mind As to What Activities to
 Allow Children-To Deliberate First Is Better Than to Reverse First Decision.

When the baby cries for the moon you cannot give it to him. You silence his demand by offering him nap kin ring or a Jack-in-the- Box. When he wants a gas-fame, you seek to di vert his attention by dangling q ball before his eyes. This kind of treat ment is all very we'll for the baby; but how long are you going to keep 1t up?
 Of course, you cannot explain to the baby the inaccessibility of the moon, or the danger that turks Tn the pretty flame; you divert his at tention from the object of his desire because that is all you can do. More over, that is enough for the baby; for his interests and desires cling closely to that which is immediately before his senses. But this method works so well with the very young child that we are inclined to practise it even when he is old enough to be reached by other methods. -
 Mere Substituting An Insult There comes a time in his develop rnent when he Is quite able to differ !, t,entiate between that upon which he has set his heart and that which you have substituted for it.

 Every variation of the cape coat will be fashionable throughoit the coming season and this one is admirably we'll adapted to general wear, to travelling, to motoring and to all occasions of the sort. Since it can be made with or without sleeves, it is equally we'll suited to mild weather and to cold weather and, added to its other advantages, 1t is an exceedingly simple garment to make. As will be noted, the fronts can be rolled open to form lapels or buttoned up closely about the throat so that the coat is planned to meet all conditions of weather. In the illustration, Scotch tweed is used to meet all conditions and undoubtedly such materials are favorites but serge or any similar cloaking is appropriate and some of the quiet green and blue plaids are exceedingly handsome.
