found 1t cheaper to make the bread for their
families in common. In Belgium bread is
veritably the staff of life; 1t is the chief arti-
Gle of food. And the Vooruit grew into a
huge cooperative institution, based on bread
The enormous bakeries equaled anything In
this city. They fed half the working popula-
ton of Client. And to the cooperative plant
were added, gradually, a department store,
libraries, schools, recreation rooms-even an
art school for the children Of these struggling
workngmen have visited the Vooruit
many times. have many friends there.
It was-before the Germans passed that
way-the sanest institution of organized
thrift in Europe; and 1t had in it the seeds
of fairer future for labor. Much of the
credit is due to two men, Van der Velde, who
was here month or so ago, and Anseele. 1t
was Anseele who protested when the Prus-
slams came to seize the peoples bread
know how he faced them-the bold, little,
bearded, steady man; and they threatened
him with arrest and threw him aside and
committed q crime as bad in degree as the
savage and voluntary destruction of Louvain.
But 1 shall not write to Anseele-for the
lightest word might lay a heavy peril upon
him. For the Dark Chamber is not an idle
fancy; it is a fierce and blasting reality And
If you, too, have friends in Belgium I would
send only a postcard message of love and
good will. Even an innocent letter may be
distorted into a menace and danger And
now that our United States Consuls-and all
other neutral Consus-are to be driven out
of Belgium, the situation of those who dwell
in that stricken country will be very much
worse.
Our Consuls are not only business agents.
In these days of war they have been bull
warks of protection for American citizens.
ct would take columns should I tell you
merely what one of them did, Mr.. Holland,
our Consul in Bale) But our Consuls in Bel
gium have done more than the others; they
protected not only the Americans, but in
many strong ways they stood between the
helpless Belgians and their ruthless con-
querors. They did more than aid in the re-
lief work. Their mere presence was a pro-
lection. And the same thing should be said
of the Consuls Of Spain and Italy and South
America. The mere fact that they were
there protected the Belgians. And now they
are all to go If Germany has her way.
A Question of Humanity
or course it is possible that Mr.. Bryan
may have something to say.
And for once, at least-he may be sure
the world is waiting with extreme interest
to hear what he has to say.
For the question at issue is not merely
one of business, though that is important; 1t
is not only a matter of our national dignity
though possibly that is worth consldera-
ton; 1t is first and last question OF hui
manity.
Four cities, Client and Brussels. Antwerp
and Liege; four cities violently darkened by
war and conquest; and the only brightness
has been that OF the fag-with its stars and
stripes. If that is hauled down Belgium will
be dark indeed. And do not like to think

Gold Teeth

Universal Actors Must Have

Photograph Black.

II you have gold teeth and want to
play in moving pictures you must
either give up your ambition or be
prepared to meet a dentists bill. Ac-
tors with beautiful features and mar
tvelous pantomimic ability are no long
ler. to play for the screen IL they pos
sess teeth Of gold.
{ Moving picture cameras sometimes
work frealSish tricks. A gown Of gor-
geous orange shade will photograph
q dead black, and shiny white mater
ial will produce an effect known as
''halation," creating a ghostly double
which seems to follow the wearer
about the room. The camera photo
graphs gold like dead black, and If an
actor smiles. his gold teeth make his
Jaw appear quite toothless.
Now, the Universal Film Manufac-
turing Company Is extremely careful
regarding details, so when new az
tors are engaged they are asked to-
open their mouths very wide, much as
a horse breeder might do when try
ing to ascertain the age OF new
pony. You may have shining row
of expensive molars. but for the NOV
les all white Is preferred.
