Little Boy Blue at the Grand Tonight
There is splendid treat. in store
for local theatergoers in the promised
engagement of the great musical conf
cdy success, Little Boy Blue, !"
which will be at the Grand tonight:
1t marks the divergence Of the
Vienncse composer from the set form
Of Hungarian operetta and his grad
ua1 adoption Of the American method.
in this way the story is kept from
becoming too serious, and is freed
from the eccentricities of the aver
age Hungarian plot, sometimes not
understandable by Americans. Ru-
dolph Schanzer and Carl Lindau, the
Hungarian authors, succeeded admir-
obly in their book along these lines,
but to make assurance doubly. sure
the adoption of their work by the
two clever Americans, A. e. Thomas
and e. A. Paulton, was decided on.
The bookiof the. musical comedy is
therefore of the merriest kind and

Washington, d. c., Jan. 5.-A
clean issue is to be made between the
war department and the National
Guard Association of the United
States on the point OF organization
of militia forces of the count.'y. By
direction of Secretary Garrison, Gen.
Leonard Wood as chief of the staff,
has issued circular No. 13. announc-
ing the decision TO Judge Advocate
General Crowder that the militia
must conform to the standards of the
regular army, or else be deprived of
federal financial support.
The decisiop is important of the
fact that in very few, If any, states,
are national guard organization able
to meet the requirements, and If the
government is to make use of the
militia in emergencies there must be
a sweeping change in state organiza-
tion or radical modification of the
existing militia law.

ROANOKE COLLEGE
POPULAR FULLBACK ON SALEM
ELEVEN is UNANIMOUS Sc
LECTION FOR POSITION.

Salem. Va. Dec. s.---At a meeting
of the football team of Roanoke Col
lege. j. b. Bonham. OF Chflhowie, Va.
was unanimously chosen as captain
for the season OF 1915. The choice
of Bonham meets with enthusiastic
approval throughout the college COM
munity on account of his popularity as
a student and his wonderful work dur
ing the past season at fullback. Steam
Roller" as he is known In college
circles, Is unquestionably the most
brilliant player ever produced at Roa-
noke College. Those who saw him
work the past season, many of the
leading coaches OF the South Atlantic
division, declared he has no equal In
Virginia, and probably no superior
in the South an a heady player and a
consistent gamer In no game In which
he played was his superb work to be
denied Time after time. he tore
through strong opposing lines for UNI
checked gains until the defense would
center almost entirely upon him.
With a combination OF qualities OF
unusual leadership, an instructive
knowledge of the game, and rare play
ing ability. j. B. Bonham will con-
tribute in a large measure to the
strength of Roanoke's team during the
season Of 1915. NJ. Bonham and Kill
iinger, graduates of the present SEES
sion. will be the only men lost from
the team so that Captain Bonham viii
have gathered around him practical

OF the past season.
