MURRAY

Not man appears in the show
opening the first half of the week at
the Murray theatre, the All-Girl Revue
of 1917, described as seething blast
of frivolity. The show is an extrava-
ganza throughout from the standpoint
of color, lively from curtain to cur
tain and made UP of pink cheeks, red
lips and number of spritely girls.
The hit of the show is Babe Wilson,
a clever child. She worked more than
anyone else in the show and was ap-
plauded more, from her appearance in
the first act, travesty on Uncle
Toms Cabin, until she joined in the
closing carnival ball scene. Doyle and
Elaine are very effective clog dan
GERS and entertainers.
The show is a study in skin and
unsullied by vulgar clothing. F1imsy
draperies which fly in the wind are
used in several acts for the costumes.

Belgium Rejuvenated

Belgium has become the pet orphan of the
world. Alleged atrocities against its inhabitants
by the Germans, starvation, despoilation OF It's
land and exploitation of it's people, have become
the topics we associate with that country Men
ton Belgium, and every one thinks about knitting
wooden socks for the refugees, gathering old
clothes for the women and orphans, and sending
flour and supplies for the bread lines If one
had the audacty to doubt these sob stories, he
was at once denounced as lacking compassion and
sympathy.
What are the real conditions? Here's the
testimony of Herbert Bayard Swope, special staff
observer of the New York World, commissioned
to investigate conditions in Germany and in the
portions of France and Belgium held by the Ger
mans. Remember that the New York World is
pro-Britsh and not pro-German.
Swope says: "The iron heel of the conqueror,
as some partisans have pictured it, is not crush
ing the life out of the people by deliberate starv
ation nor is it depriving them of all privileges.
The yoke of the conqueror sits heavy upon the
Belgians and the French, and they are not happy
under it. But their businesses are permitted to
continue, they are urged and helped to till their
fields, their schools and churches are open, their
clubs and gathering places are freely used and
while the display OF no other flag than tnat OF
Germany is tolerated, it is a common thing to
see displayed in Belgium pictures of King Albert
and his family, and in France photographs OF
President Poincare and of French generals.
u spent week in Northern France and Bel
gium during my visit to Germany, which has just
ended, and the reaction / carried away from the
occupied territories was certainly not the one that
the allies seek to produce, nor was it that which
official Germany tries to create. A military oc-
cupancy at best is a source of unhappiness to the
people whose lands are thus seized, but in the
case of the lands ] visited it was not character
lied by the cruelty and viscousness so often des-
cribed There is good substantial reason for
this-not that the Germans are SO kindly and
consderate as to make any other attitude ab-
horrent to them, but because, under German
methods, it is thought to make each section self
supporting, and that can be done only by en-
couraging the people to work and fostering their
Observation-Disclosures the burden of their support
would be an added liability to the conquering
forces, which are responsible for the welfare of
the subject civilians.
"Let me say at once that my visit to Belgium
was not made under the usual conditions that the
Foreign Office in Berlin throws about the tours
made by neutral observers. They are sent to the
conquered country in care of officers who are
particularly instructed as to what their charges
shall and shall not see. My trip to Belgium was
by-product of my visit to the Somme battle

Keeps Wedding Secret to Learn Homework

Eighteen months otter she was married, a
New York girl made announcement of the event.
She kept the marriage secret in order that she
might learn the art of housekeeping. After she
had convinced herself that she had mastered the
domestic arts, she announced her wedding We
believe that she used good brand of common
sense. Eighteen months gave her time to learn
one of the fundamentals that make for happiness
in married life. She might have announced the
date Of her wedding shortly after the ceremony,
and then applied herself to the self imposed task,
but by keeping it secret, she was able to study
her work unmolested by the calls and inquiries
Of her friends.
