NINE. BERNHARDT'S
LEG IS AMPUTATED
The Great Actress Submits TO Opera
ton Early Today and Stood
Ordeal WE'LL

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
BORDEAUX, Feb. 22.-"For the
sake of my art" Nine. Sarah Bern
hardt tonday submitted to the ampu-
tation OF her right leg from the knee.
The operation was performed here
early today by Prof. Denuce of the
faculty OF medicine Of the University
OF Bordeaux. Prof Denuce declared
that Nine. Bernhardt bore up remrak
ably, despite her age and that unless
there are unexpected complications
she will have a rapid recovery.
Nine. Pernhardt was in CHEEKY
mood when she was removed to the
clinic Of the augustins for the opera
ton. Here King Alfonso and other
royal personages have been treated.
She greeted the surgeons with smile
and urged that they hurry the opera
ton along so that she might return to
Paris as soon as possible
While hospital attendants were
preparing for the operation, the ac-
tress conyersed volubly with her doc
tors
Il give my consent to being mutt
lated because cannot bear to remain
idle" she said. Work is my life. SO
long as can be fitted with an arti-
fetal leg. I shall resume the stage
and all my good spirits will be re-
stored. hope again to be able to use
all that force of art which now up
holds me and which will sustain me
until beyond the grave"
Nine. Bernhard is now in her sew
entieth year. According to enc Of
her doctors, the injury to her knee
that made necessary today's opera
ton, was due to her own insistence
upon vigorous Interpretation Of the
role OF Joan of Arc. Each night it was
necessary for her to fall upon her
knees while playing Joan. She was
advised to eliminate the scene, but
refused and the right knee thsgan to
swell. During her lAst!Yisft I'd Amer
lea, the entire right leg gave the
actress trouble and she was forced to
use heavy staff to supp0Et her at
some of her engagements.

To HOL \ DISPLAY
CONTEST MEETING
Committee Meets Tomorrow Morning
to Arrange Details for Holding
Window Display
Contest.
MANY ARE INTERESTED
Townspeople as Well as Merchants
Are Taking interest In
the Proposed
Contest.
MANY ARE INTERESTED

The window display contest cor
mittee, composed Of James G. Horgan.
NJ e. Justice, Emile F. Renaud and
u. w Winger will meet tomorrow
morning at $3.50 when arrangements
for holding the contest will be held.
The meeting will be held at the In
dustrial association.
It was impossible today to tell
what plan is most likely to be adoptea
by the committee for holding the con-
test. Suggestions have been offered
that series OF six contest be held,
that three contests be held. and an
other that hut one contest be held.
that coming in the week before East
err. The plan Of holding either three
or six contests, each about one week
apart, seems to be the most favored.
One single contest, it is thought.
would not arouse as much interest as
three or more.
1t will probably be decided to APP
point a committee Of three to act as
judges OF the displays. It has been
suggested that the advertising man.
ayers OF the local newspapers be
made members Of this committee. The
windows no doubt will be judged on
the percentage basis such as was de-
scribed by Mr.. Towne as having been
used at Council Bluffs. Under this
basis, perfect window would be CIV
en- a grade Of 100. For any defects in
the window a certain amount would
be deducted from this. The highest
total number of points made by any
window during the several contests
would decide the prize winners.
Townspeople as well as merchants
are expressing an interest in the pro-
posed contest and it Is evident from
this that the contest will attract a
great amount of attention when it has
been started. The windows that are
entered in the contest, will. Of course,
be the centers of attraction while the
contest is being held. This should Of
- inducement to all merchants to
enter. aiiifx!S 1ltU
- r. Justice, president of the Re
tailer's league, under whose auspices
the contest is to be held, stated this
morning that he wished the mer.
chants to understand that it is not
necessary for them to belong to the
league in order to enter the contest.
It will be open to every merchant in
the city and it is the desire OF the
league officials that as many as pos
sible will compete.

SUBJECT FOR BILL NYE'S WIT
Humorist Made Bright Verse Out of Question Theatrical People Come
 to Dread

Anybody connected with the amuse- ment world will tell you that the dead Hest and most maddening question is. Where do you go from here?" Bill Nye, touring the country with James Whitcomb Riley. had a great many one-night stands to visit. and came to suffer acutely through the insistent repetition of this boob query. At last he wrote the appended verse, which, it is believed. never found life in print:
 Where do you go from here?"
 asks the landlord of our hotel. And Where do you go from here?"
 asks the boy who answers the bell, And Where do you go from here Oh, Lord, and Where do you go from
 here?"

Mirrors Protect Bank Vaults.

In constructing vault in the base ment of one of the Los Angeles banks, a plan has been followed which makes the six sides of the chamber visible to a watchman and eliminates all chances of it's being entered by tunneling be- heath it. It is set on concrete columns in the middle of white-tiled pit which is brightly illuminated. To make it possible to command view of the space beneath the vault. from the level above. mirrors have been arranged on the floor at such an angle that every part of the space is re- flected in them. Light is reflected by the white walls so that the top of the vault is illuminated and easily in- spected.

The injuries of some are so serious that additional deaths are expected. Nearly all are too dazed to understand fully what has happened.
 The survivors do not agree as to whether the submarine fired one or two torpedoes. A few say they saw the periscope. though many tell of seeing the wake of foam as a torpe- do came toward the vessel The only points in which all concur is that the torpedo struck the vessel a vital blow amidships, causing her to list to the starhoard. In this careening fashion she plowed forward some distance, smashing the life boat davits as she did so. and making the launching Of boats we'll nigh impossible until she stopped. Estimates of the time the Lusitania remained afloat range from eight to 20 minutes.

EnioYina Life in Trenches.

A soldier writes back: Life in the trenches is fairly enjoyable If you know how to appreciate it"
 Yes, indeed; life is worth while The trenches offer peculiar opportuni- ties for enjoying life. Living from minute to minute is intense, conscious living. replete with satifaction. Ev- cry minute is as precious as though it was going to be the last. And the values of contrast heighten the zest for breathing. Just to be alive is keen joy in the trenches, surpassed only by the joy of living remote from the trenches.
