The Man Who Came Back From the
War on tuberculosis.

The Nan Who Came Back From the
War on tuberculosis.
By special arrangement and through
the courtesy of local Modern Woodmen.
the Crystal theatre has booked a reel
of 1 ,040 feet, featuring Robert Wilson
of Missouri, in true and realistic film
story of his part in the present war
not of bloodshed-but in the fight
against and conquest of that menacing
monster of the human f1esh-tubercu-
losis. Wilson is one of the million mem
bers of the Modern Woodmen of Amer
lea. Discovering that he is afflicted
with this disease, he takes advantage
of the comforts, care and cure of the
Sanatorium owned, maintained and op-
Grated by that Society, free of charge
to its members. For several years that
fraternal institution has thus actively
and effectively cooperated in the world
wide movement advocated by the Red
Cross and medical authorities, to stamp
out the dread "white plague" and Viii
son is the beneficiary of this Woodmen
life-saving station. 1t is an intensely
interesting and heart-gripping story of
the leave-taking of wife and children
Weak in body and hopeless in mind he
journeys to the beautiful Rocky Mount
ain region near Colorado Springs, Colo,
where, in the rarifed climate and con-
slant sunshine, at an altitude Of 900
feet he is destined to spend nine months
at the foot of Mount Cedar, in the care
of the most modern Sanatorium in the
world. His experiences in chasing
the cure his absolute rest from all
cares and labor, his gradual return to
health and strength, his ''hikes among
the fragrant pines and over the rocky
trails of the U. S. forest reserve, leased
by and adjoining the Sanatorium, re-
suit in his final return to family and
friends, victorious over his foe. 1.-The
Man Who Came Back" is a thrilling
and dramatic story-and absolutely
true as well; indeed, his experience has
been duplicated by nearly 2, 900 of his
fellow Neighbors, who have already en-
joyed the benefits of this justly cele-
brated institution. This film is pro-
nounced by competent authorities to be
one of the very best in this highly-de-
veloped age of motion pictures, and is
in such great demand that it can be
booked for only one day and night II
each town or city It is a rare oppor-
tunity one can not afford to miss.

GO-TO-CHURCH. SUNDAY
SUNDAY. APRIL Is.

Men and woman in every walk of life
are more and more recognizing the
power of christian service. They are
coming to realize that life must be
dominated by spiritual power; that
never in the long roll of time were the
people calling for this vitalizing inf1u-
ence as they are today; and that no
earthly organization is so abundantIy
able and so well equipped to lead the
hosts as the modern churches of today
So this call is to all people to attend di-
vine worship on next Sunday at some
one of the churches of the city.
