INTERESTING LETTERS
FROM WAR FRONT
Sister Of N. }. Jukes Writes Interest.
Ing Letter From island of Lem.
nos, Naval Base for OAR
danelIes Campaign.

Some intensely interesting letters
have been received by our popular
photographer, NJ. Jukes, from his
sister. Miss Harriet Jukes, who is a
nurse in the British hospital at Lem
nos, an island in the AEGEAN Sea. forty
miles west of the Dardanelles.
Lemnos is naval base for the Brit
ish, and in the recent campaign
against. the Dardanelles was an i'm.
portant point. and large number of
sick and wounded were taken there
for treatment.
Miss Jukes' descriptions of war
scenes. the country, tue natives and
their customs, are intensely interest
ing. While some of her experiences
are attended with danger and great
hardships, they are well worth the
while, for she is witnessing scenes
never before enacted and which may
never occur again. Furthermore, her
work of relieving the distressed is the
noblest to which one can dedicate his
life.
Miss Jukes is a native of Canada,
and about six months after war was
declared she volunteered in the British
Red Cross service. For a time she
served in the Astor hospital, and then
she was sent to the front. This is an
honor sought by every nurse. She has
made several trips through the Medi-
terranean Sea with wounded soldiers
bound for England and France. but she
prefers to remain close to the battle
front where her service is most need.
ed
Her variations of experiences are so
filled with interest that one almost
envies her participation in her great
and noble work.

Don't waste time and suffer unneces-

failed. Fortunately l heard of Sloan's

MARGARET ANGLIN IN
"BEVERLY'S BALANCE"
This Week-E Performance at the
Apollo Great Comedy Success.

Margaret Anglin, who ranks m
ong the foremost stars Of the Ameri-
can stage is at the Apollo Theatre
this Friday and Saturday with Sat
urday matinee, in her greatest COM
edy success called "Beverly's Bal
ance," the latest work of the well
known dramatist, Paul Kester. The
attraction comes with a record Of
long runs in New York and Chicago
and is presented here with all the
care of detail and cast which charac-
terized its original production at the
Lyceum Theatre, New York.
The character is that of a demure
and unsophistocated church choir
singer from Virginia who is whirled
out of her natural sphere by the tenn
pest of things metropolitan, and who
fights her way in up-to-date New
York by her own personality and wits
The comedy is said to sparkle with
epigrammatic speeches of the sort
which Miss Anglin is famous for, de-
livery with Incompatible i~ncisiveness.
Imitation, brilliant dialogue and an
eve for the humorous side of life,
mark the action of the story in which
the author never allows the charac-
ters to dwindle in Importance or in
vision, throughout its three scenes
