CALL TO ARMS FOR
DEFENSE IN FILM

After the first showfngs of "The
Battle Cry Of Peace at the Russwn
Lyceum yesterday, it is easy for New
Britain to understand why this pic
ture was the forerunner of a great
preparedness movement. AS an anna
teur student of human emotions, the
writer might hazard the guess that
feW-very few-left the theater with
out realizing that patriotism, love of
country, all those things our fore
fathers fought for, all the traditions
of America, demand that the army
and navy be established on q footirg
equal to the maximum strength Of
any possible foe Or combination of
foes.
From a spectacular standpoint "Tfe
Battle Cry Of Peace" is all that could
be desired. The prologue inclu -:
statistics showing what pulling na
ton this is in respect to its defensive
ability. Comparisons With other
countries are laughab1e but as the
picture points out, to laugh may be
dangerous. While the film $ no doubt
exaggerated, but only for the purpose
of driving home it's lesson, it con-
vinces even those SNUG, self-satis-
fed persons who see IN the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans natural fortresses
which Will protect America from all
harm---if other nations should happen
to lose al their battleshirI.
Particularly thrilling arc the bat
ties at sea, the invasion Of America
by an armed horde, the destruction
of New York and the hopeless efforts

fcnses to reach the cnemNs feet

RED LIPS and HEALTH

The first place that anemia, or thin
blood, shows is in the lips and gums
and the membranes that line the eye
lids. You may be naturally pale and
still be healthy but when these MEM
branes lose their bright red color your
blood is deficient in quantity or color
Thin blood is danger. 1t invites
disease. The organisms of the blood
fight off disease germs. Thin blood
means less power to do this. For in
stance, when you cut yourself it does
not heal 50 quickly if your blood is thin
and weak.
To build up the blood there is one
remedy that has been household word
for a generation, DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. They tone up
the entire system, make the blood rich
and red, strengt then the nerves, in
crease the appetite, put color in the
cheeks and lips and drive away that
unnatural tired feeling. Plenty of SUM-
light, good wholesome food and fresh
air will do the rest.
Two books, Building Up the Blood
and "What to Eat and How to Eat'
give just the information that every
mother of growing girl needs. They
are free. Write for them today to the

Drowned

Lakewood, N. j., Nov. 17-Ruth
Baylis, daughter Of F. E. Baylis, of
1913 East Seventh street, Brooklyn,

years old, and was recuperating from
a nervous breakdown resulting from
overstudy in preparation for her
graduation from a Brooklyn school.
Her nurse was sitting with her on
the shore Of the lake when Miss Bay
lis sprang in. The nurse was unable
to draw her from the water. Her
cries brought Oliver Plangers and
Kcnrard Garon, who were rowing
nearby. The body had been in the

Charge 1t.

Do you have any charge accounts?
I can just imagine the Mortified look
on the faces of some of my readers
as they mentally answer, mol"
And know. just how they feel. A
charge account ought not to make
one eXtravagant. 1t costs no less TO
pay for things a month later than
when you buy them.
But somehow it is apt to make one
little less watchful about money,
unless one is very strcng- minded.

a year I realized that I had several

How unfortunate it is that most Of

Besides the photoplay attractions
there are some excellent vaudeville
acts on the bill. Chief among them
is the speciality given by Clame and
Dolly, an odd appearing pair who in
troduce a series of puns and humor-

when 1t comes to the earth's weather
is more or less a matter Of conjecture.
Spots "Come and Co."
Sun spots como and CO." declared
Capt. Hoogewerf. discussing the ques-
ton. These spots have periods OF
maximum and minimum development.
and reach their maximum about every
eleven years. This year is a maximum
period. We have observed that the
more spots there are on the sun the
more apt the weather is to be unsea-
sonable, but we have no particular rea-
SON or any absolute data for holding
this opinion"
The superintendent then went into
an explanation of what sun spots"
are, and while his explanation was
clear enough, the Investigating citizen
emerged with the idea that sun spots
are caused on that great orb by storms
in that locality similar to our own
storms, and that the spots are great
clouds of gases generated in that far,
far cline. into which intrepid astrono-
mists look from a distance of millions
and millions of miles, much in the same
fashion that one would look into some
great hole. Sun spots" are pretty big
morsels for the uninitiate to contem-
plate, just as they are for scientists TO
investigate.
