BIG FILM WITH
A BIC MESSAGE

THE Battle Cry of Peace" is a big
film with big mission.
That fact was shown conclusiYely at
the Majestic Theatre yesterday when
this second extraordinary American
photo-spectacle had its initial present
alton in Boston
From patriotic point of view, this
screen spectacle should stay in Boston
until the cause of national defense
which means defense of home AMI
hearth and relatives as we'll as defense
OF frts and trenches-has been given
al, impets that will carry it on to vic
tory. 1t is the most striking battle
film of the age, in that il ilIstrates
what would happen if any first-class
foreign power, such as England is to-
day, or France, or Germany, should
attack the United States. The scenes
are narrowing, but they are not over
drawn. They might even be used to il
lustrate the latest report of the secre-
t3ry Of the rayy--a volume every page
OF which is a warning to the Ameri
can people that there is no military
Establishment today on which Ameri-
can security against invasion can be
rased.

AFTER RANCHO VILLA.
Five Thousand American Soldiers on
 ''Hot Tra:l.'

San Antonio, Tex, Mar. 15.- ] General Pershing with practi-
 cally his entire command cross-
 ed the border at Columbus at
 noon today, Funston announced late this afternoon.
 Carranza troops joined forces
 with the Amercan troops and accompanied them.
 Pershing's report on the en-
 trance into Mexico dispelled to a
 great extent fears entertained in some quarters that resistance
 would be offered by troops of the defacto government.
 Colonel Bertani, commanding the Carranza garrison at Palo- mas, joined Pershing, with 100 men and is reported to have shown great eagerness to join the chase. A number of Mexi cans were employed as scouts by Gen. Pershing, who has an army of 5000 men.
 PerShing has gone to Mexico with orders to wipe out the Villa organization. Unless orders to the contrary are received from those in higher authority, Funs- ton will continue the campaign till Villa is captured or killed.
 No limit has been placed on field operations. There are now available for operations more | than 10000 troops. Bandits af l with Villa in other parts | of Mexico have not indicated l their intentions, but brisk ac- tivity on their part would be no to American officers, who expect that they will have to be engaged from time to time.
 Juarez, Mar. 15.-General Ga vira, Carranza commander here, said he received instruction from Oregon, Carranza's minister of war, to order all troops in his 1 district to cooperate Tn every way with the American expedi- 5ionary forces
 Washington, March 15.-The senate concurred in the house resolution providing for an in crease in the regular army of approximately 12O,OOO fighting troops. There was little debate, he sixty nine senators in the session voting unanimously for he resolution. .Adjutant General Mccain had Lcted without waiting for the inal passage of the resolution when orders were wired last light to recruiting offices all ,ver the United States, which lad been closed for months, to l e-open. Before the senate vot- d several hundred men were al eady enrolled.
 Reports said prospective re- ruits were fiocking to the colors ' II over the land. The war de- 'artment was swamped with tel grams and personal callers of ering to volunteer their services hould the country need them.
 Mem berS of the national guard ssured Secretary Baker that he men in their states were eady for the call.

Soldier Sarcasm.

For several weeks a wounded
soldier had had no solid food
nothing but milk. At length the
doctor told him that the next day
he could have a light meal, and
the soldier, greatly rejoicing, con-
jured up visions of underdone
beefsteak, potatoes, cheese, etc.
What he was given for his first
meal, however, was about table
spoonful of tapioca. He swal-
lowed it, growing and grumb-
ling.
That's all the dinner you can
have,' the nurse said, "and the
doctor orders that everything else
must be in the same proportion. /"
The patient pushed away the
plate.
"Wcll, I'll do some reading
now," he said. Bring me post
age stamp. "-Tit-Bits.
