have their differences. So It is just
one big row all the time.
A photographer Of war pictures gets
closer view of the real country in
which he is working, for a photogra-
pher must get out and take the pic
lures, while the correspondent may re-
ceive his story through a deputy. Mr..
Durborough told of times that when
taking pictures he would have to lie
fiat on his stomach and just put the
camera in the air swapping without
luck which was safer than making
human target Of oneself.
This interesting man said that he
felt 10 years older since going to Eu-
rope and that now there were more
grey hairs in his head than in his
fathers. To visit the war hospitals
and see the wounded was sight long
to be remembered. Along with the
MANNED ones there are SO many who
have gone totally blind. Many have
gone crazy with fear, strong men all
shot to pieces and human wrecks, all
caused by the horrors Of war. But if
war should come to this country Mr..
Durborough believes that the Yankees
could lick" any nation. Putting it in
his own words: 1--WE might be affect
ed somewhat at first and they might
make a little dent but we would come
back good and strong and lick them"
Mr.. Durborough is showing on Fri
day at the Opera house for the last
time, motion pictures taken through
war ridden Europe, battle of Vera
Cruz and with Gen. Pershing's forces

Just a low-hung yellow racing car
man bronzed by the sun and winds
of many chimes, some films and be-
hind those-the story.
William Fl Durborough, the famous
war correspondent and the more ia
nous photographer, is passing a few
days in our midst and consented to be
interviewed after being interrupted
while attending to matters of business,
Thursday afternoon.
We Go not know what nationality he
is. how old he is, or very much about
him, when we come to think it over,
except that he has seen war and then
some. That he would talk about, but
in regard to himself he was most reti-
cent.
Europe is war crazy" said Mr.. Dur
borough, when asked to give his opin-
ion Of the great struggle across the
sea. They are all fighting and what
is it all for? If | conducted a place Of
business on that side of the street and
you We're in business on the opposite
side, and you undersold me, would
that be any reason why l should get a
gun and shoot you? That is just the
position the European countries have
been in. 1t has been one immense in
dustrial war for years, each one try
ing to gain supremacy over the other
until finally in the mad struggle the
war has been brought about"
Something which is not generally
known, (and when Mr. Durborough
al al
state secret was being given away is
that Germany has lost a great deal
