For some time past the war news has
been of like tenor-Allies on the often
slve everywhere; counter attacks re-
pulsed; slight gains by the Germans held
only temporarily The Kaiser has gone
from the west to the east front to en-
courage the troops by his presence, while
at home the food problem is evidently
becoming more serious and the desire
for peace is growing into demand from
the suffering people. Germany is about
to lose the last of her overseas posses
sions, in East Africa; and although, un-
fortunately, the end of the war is not in
sight it must be evident now that, as
predicted from the first, it can only end
in defeat for Germany
A new feature is the beginning of an
offensive movement of the Allies from
Saloniki, where an army said to number
700, 000 meE-English, French and Serbs,
trained soldiers, well equipped promises
to clear up the situation in the Balkans
and have an important effect on the gen.
eral situation. Italy is sending troops
to Saloniki, which fully commits her TO
war with Germany. Officially she has
only been at war with Austria, but in
the field she has fought Germans as well
as Austrians The early defeat of the
bulgars is confidently predicted, with
the restoration of Serbia to her people,
and it is believed that when Russia says
the word Roumania will join forces with
the Allies. Greece is disturbed by the
invasion of her territory by the Bulgars
ard while she is not likely to take an ac-
tive part III the war it is evident that the
pro German sentiment is waning
The recent appearance of German
warships in the North Sea suggests that
Germany, losing everywhere on land,
may he preparing for last desperate
attempt TO gain naval victory for its
moral effect at home and on her armies
in the field. Her Zepplin raids on the
English coast have resulted only in the
killing of women and children, while they
have stin ulated recruiting in that coun-
try and increased the adherence with
which her methods are viewed abroad
Then, although the gains Of the Allies
in the west have been only by yards
while the Russians are advancing by

The most amazing, most impressive. most
digniied and yet the most sensational photo
production of its character ever attempted on
the screen is the verdict of all who have seen
the latest great film success, Where Are My
Children" now in its third month at the Ma
jestic Theater, Boston, to crowded houses four
times daily. The subject is daring one, and
yet based on fact. The production is eabor-
ate and beautiful, the acting is on the highest
plane, with that eminent actor, Tyrone Powers,
in the role of District Attorney, and he is at
all times dignifed ard at times intensely dra-
matte, bringing out all the strong points
in the character aud in the subject
The subject is one that will make all
women think, and think hard, and it is in this
hat the greatest good will come from all see
ing it, Where Are My Children has had the
unqualified endorsement of clergymen, promi
ne MT physicians and social workers, and every
mother should see it in order TO appreciate the
good that it will do. where Are My Chill

Theater for a limited engagement of three days

nomenal success in the large cities. All seats

Automobile accidents, while numerous
elsewhere, have been comparatively in,
frequent locally and generally trivial il
character. Considering the many mex
perienced drivers, those learning to rur
their newly acquired cars, this is both
surprising ard creGitable. The many
cars Of the summer visitors of course
have experienced chauffeurs, who know
local regulations, and if their example
was not generally followed there would
undoubtedly be more and more serious
accidents to report, A reckless or a
drunken driver is a menace to all VINO
use the highways, whether in car,
team or on foot, and if there is no law
to punish such offenders, for the pro-
lection of life and property such law
should be placed on the statute books at
the earliest possible moment. The acct
dent in Northport, Aug. 12th-if it may
be so called-is one that should have
the immediate attention of the authori-
ties. AS there was an eyewitness to
the collision which wrecked a car and
sentits driver to hospital, and other es-
sential evidence is readily obtainable,
there can be no difficulty in determining
who was at fault. Taking away the
license of the offender in such a case
seems very inadequate punishment, and
when there is no financial responsibility
tor the destruction of property and the
imperiling of life, term of imprison-
mert should be imposed. The Camden
Herald of last week said of this acct
dent:
We have not heard of any action be-
ing taken by the Waldo County or State
officials looking toward the punishment
of the man responsible for the accident.
Here was case where man observing
the law in every way and driving with
care was run into and narrowly escaped
being killed by man driving at reck-
less speed, on the left hand side of the
road on sharp turn. If this driver was
under the influence of liquor at the time
he should lose his license and suffer what
ever penalty the law imposes for Grim
inally careless driving. If he was not
under the influence of liquor then he was
knowingly guilty of recklessness that
might have easily resulted in manslaught-
err. He is unfit to drive an auto and GER
tainly should suffer heavy penalty. When
is any person safe on our roads if such
criminal recklessness is to 60 UNPUBLISHED?

sible driver from causing the death or
severe injury to other innocent people if

In taking the boys of his Sunday
school class on hike in Northern Maine
Mr. George H. Robertson rendered them
a greater service than perhaps he or
they realize. Aside from the physical
benefits of a sojourn in the pure and
bracing air of the Maine woods and the
enjoyment of the beauties of nature,
the boys were taught something of wood
craft and methods of life in the open,
and in after years they will look back
upon this trip with most pleasant recol-
lections. On another page will be found
the diary of one of the boys, giving de-
tails of their outing.

The characteristics OF every coun,

leges in being able to absorb all this
with little or no effort to himself.
And this the great film industry has
placed within the reach OF all. I'm
fortunately, however the capacity of
evil is as unlimited on the screen
as the possibility for good, and more
unfortunately still, the great desire for
sensationalism has permitted much
more violence OF ethics to appear in
silent drama than ever dared to be
placed upon the stage, and with dire
result, for the price is such that the
limited capacity of the worku1an's
purse can compass it. The Oriental
and the Occidental are both open to
the powerful influence; in fact. ]
know OF no greater weapon for good
or evil than the moving picture film.
And, my friends, they have come TO
stay-when one considers that 6,000,-

and that 30 per cent of the children

topics, which are at the disposal of all

a matter might well be worthy of in
