STRENUOUS DAY IN

Especial to The Richmond virginian. }
Instruction Camp, Gordonsville,
Va. July 22.-This has been a
strenuous day for the Virginia troops
encamped here and none OF tho
soldier boys will need to be rocked
to sleep tonight. Most OF them are
nursing sore feet and some bruises
The camp was alive at o'clock
this morning and under the watchful
eyes Of the United States army Of
GERS each command has been put
through some phase OF field work. The
Blues spent the morning in the field
being given full instructions In pitch
ing shelter tents. Recall was sound
ed at $40 o'clock and the men re-
turned to camp. The school for nom
commissioned officers was held i'm
mediately thereafter and the soldiers
were free until the mess hour. A
two-hour drill was held in the after
noon beginning at 1858 o'clock, and
the boys were free except for guard
mount and general camp routine.
1t Is still very warm here, but the
soldiers seem to be enjoying their ex-
perience.

CARE OF THE HAIR IN
EUROPEAN COUNTRIES

In Southern Europe the very
straight. homely appearance Of the
hair Of lower class native women Is
due to it's excessive greasiness and
could be greatly improved upon by
the elimination OF all excess oil.
Throughout the continent among the
higher social classes great care Is
taken to keep the hair perfectly clean.
not with soaps and makeshifts. but
with preparations made just for the
hampoo, and It Is probably for this
reason alone that the hair OF Euro
pean women Is considered the most
beautiful In the world. The much
desired f1uffiness and softness of hair
which follow canthrox shampoos are
the result of Its perfect cleansing
power You can avoid any bad con-
dition Of scalp or hair by use OF this
economical homemade shampoo
which Is prepared very quickly by
just dissolving a teaspoonful canthrox
(which every drug store carries) in
cup hot water, and pouring slowly
on the head as you rub briskly This
makes a wealth of rich, cleansing
iather which will soon restore the fluff
and lustre to the dullest hair and
encourage a beautiful growth.--Adv.

STAUNTONS NEW
POSTMASTER CHOSEN

Washington, July 12.--S, M. Dom
aid was today recommended by Con-
gresham III. d. Flood for postmaster
Of Staunton to succeed Colonel S.
Brown Allen, whose term expired over
a year ago.
Mr.. Floods first choice was Will
liam T. McCue. whom he recommend
ed to Postmaster-General Burleson a
year ago. Mr.. McCue failed Of nomi-
nation chiefly because objections were
filed with the department against him.
Postmaster-General Burleson was
in favor OF appointing Fl. M. McIlha-
ney. and suggested to Mr.. Flood that
he endorse him. Mr.. McIlhaney lost
out. however. when 1t was found he
was about seventy years old.
Since then the battle for the Office
has ragged fiercely, resulting In a num-
Der OF candidates entering the field.
and it's improbable now that one
fourth of the patrons would endorse
any candidate.
The appointment of Mr.. Donald,
who Is regarded as a clean business
man and highly respected, Is expected
to clear up the situation. There Is no
doubt OF his nomination and confirma-
ton in the next few days. a.

interested in the Statewide prohibit
ton campaign now under way in Nir-
ginia, and indications are that the
crowd tomorrow night will be larger
than either of the others
Interest in the campaign is steadily
growing. and in a measure, the larger
interest Is due to the work being done

MUTUAL GIRL"
BIC PHOTOPLAY,
To RUN ONE YEAR
Series of So Feature Pictures
Just Completed and Released.
To Be Seen in Atlanta.

For the last three months there has
been in preparation in New York q
series of motion picture plays-edu
cational, descriptive and dramatic
which will be released each week
throughout the entire year, beginning
January 10, and which are different
from anything heretofore attempted
in motion plays.
The idea is based upon the gener-
ally admitted interest in every city
and town of the United States in the
daily life-the celebrated sights and
personages-of New York, the second
city Of the world, and, in many re-
spects, the greatest. And the method
of portraying all this upon the motion
picture screen so that it may be
caught by the spectator at a glance,
and understood as quickly by per-
sons Of even moderate education, lies
in depicting the daily life of a young
girl who comes from a small interior
town to visit city relatives and is
launched by them into the whirl and
fascination of New York society life.
The first picture of this series Is
coming to Atlanta this week. Beau
tiful Norma Phillips will take the role
of the Mutual Girl throughout the
whole series. This Is heralded as one
of the most stupendous productions
ever attempted by film manufactur
erS

GREAT PICTURE
MASTERPIECE IS
HERE NEXT WEEK
Silent Drama of Inside Workings
of Police Department in the
Big Cities.

The first OF the pfptoplay master
pieces which the General Film Com
pan'y has released in its new service
will reach the silent screen at the
Montgomery Theater next Friday in
the presentation there Of the Lubin
Company's drama in five parts of
Charles Klein's famous Third De-
gree" story founded on the inside
workings of a great police depart
ment, and which when played in first
class theaters throughout the country
attracted capacity attendance.
This motion picture is the result of
considerable effort upon the part of
the producer and for a long time the
forces of the big Lubin plant have
been concentrated upon it during the
time 1t was being staged by Barry
O'Neil. The settings are elaborate in
the extreme and the slightest detail
has had the striCtest attention paid
to it. Particularly is this noticeable
in the great football game, the police
station and the courthouse. and in
the latter an exceptional courtroom
scene has been secured The cast has
been specially selected from the en-
tire Lubin Company of players made
necessary by the difficult and impor-
tant roles that had to be assigned.

Serial in Movies

beautiful American girl captured
in an obscure corner of India and
thrown unprotected into a great am
phitheater where 40 unmuzzled and
hungry lions are raging is one of the
big scenes in the second picture OF
the serial film story. THE Adventures
Of Kathlyn," written by Harold Nc
Grath and produced partly in Cali
fornia and partly in India by the Sc
Zig Polyscope Company 1t is one of
the most daring pictures ever pro-
duced.
The first picture OF the 'Kathlyn'
series has already been seen in At
lanta and the second adventure. with
the lion episode, will be released In
this city tomorrow. This picture
represents a new tendency on the
part of leading film producers to pro-
duce serial romances which will run
for a number of installments Just
like the serial novels in the maya
zines. The entrance Of as noted a
romance writer as Harold McGrath
into the motion picture field Is an in
teresting commentary on the ever
increasing Importance of what is still
new art
