MANY ARE READING
 WEIGHTS BOOK "THE.
 EYES OF THE W0RLD''
Picturized Version of This Novel Will Appear at the Orpheum Theatre on Janu- ary II, 12 and 13.

An announcement of uncommon in- terest to theatre-goers and book read. CTS alike is that one of the greatest of the years output of extraordinary attractions involving lavish film pro- Iduction, Clune's multiple-reel pictorai translation of Harold Bell Wright's famous story of love and adventure, ''The Eyes of the World, has been booked for presentation here at the Orpheum theatre January II 12 and 19.
 The production is described briefly as visualization in photodrama on a lavish scale-with which is co!Srdin- ated a musical score much the same as in opera-of Wrights red-bIooded and romantic novel of California which has enjoyed a sale of more than 1.OOO.- 900 copies.
 This Clune production, like "Ra- mona, is said to be a gorgeous one fin every respect. It is the fruitage of six months exclusive and unremitting work at the big studios at LosAngeles and on the actual scenes described in the book. Those who have seen the virile characters of this delightful and stirring novel moving before the eyes as they clash in the struggle of two opposing ideals declare that it is the finest depletion of current story ever put upon the screen.
 ''The Eyes of the World" consumes an entire afternoon or evening in it's showing. The scenario was prepared by the noted author himself and in performing this work he considerably amplified his tale, which now in visual form carries the characters thiough two generations.
 The photodrama is said to he of brilliant character forming magnif- cent background for the fascinating tale. The outdoor scenes are said to.l form a wonderful panorama of Cali fornia's charms of mountain and vale. !
 Besides simplifying the story. Harold Bell Wright actively assisted in put ting his scenes and characters before the camera. It is said that novel in- novations. both in the dramatic un- folding of the story and in the techni- cal form of presentment, will stamp The Eyes of the World" as a mile- post in the development of cinema | entertainment

FORMER BELDING BOY
WRITES FROM WACO

Mr.. Cole was employed in the Beld-
ing Bros. a Co.'s mill and boarded
with Mrs. Mcmahon when he enlisted
in the 32nd infantry.
Waco, Texas,
November %, 1917.
Dear Mrs. McMahon:
1t has been quite long time since
] heard from you, so will write you a
few lines. N
How is everything in Belding?
suppose it is beginning to get cold in
Michigan now. 1t is quite warm here
yet. OF course, it is cooler than it
was and we are wearing some Of our
winter underclothing.
As yet, we have no idea when we
will go to France, but expect to go
sometime between now and spring.
About three weeks or a month ago
we got sixty-eight drafted men in
our company from Camp Custer. One
of the fellows in our tent says that
he knows you people, said he boarded
at your house for quite a while. j
am sending you small picture of
him and myself to see if you know
him. 1t seems as if have heard Mr..
Mcmahon speak of him when was
there.
We drill seven and one-half hours
day now. We go on hike tonight,
that is, our battalion, for about three
hours. You see we start at 1880 and
march into the country for three
hours and get back to camp at l0:30
or HOO o'clock. It's lots Of fun
marching in the dark.
A week ago tonight our whole regi-
ment went and our major major
Stewart) had three other fellows and
myself go ahead and build fires where
they were to cross a river.
Last Saturday we had hike of
about fourteen miles in the forenoon.
On Monday and Tuesday we went
from camp about three miles and dug
trenches all day. We expect to go to
the rifle range for practice about the
first of the week.
Talk about aeroplanes, we see them
here almost any time. One fellow
looped- -the-loop this morning.
Write me soon. How are Lees
folks? Some one said all the fac
tories in B. R. had shut down, except
Hanchett's. Or did Lee move from
B. r. Your friend, Amuel Cole.

CONSERVE CHURCH FUEL
HOLD UNION SERVICES

Many of Belongs citizens are of
the opinion that the churches of the
city could aid materially in the saw
ing of fuel by combing their services
into union meetings and heating only
one church on Sunday. 1t is suggest
ed that the ministers could alternate
in filing the pulpits and that for de-
nominational purposes collections
could be taken separately and men,
bers meet in separate apartments Of
serving fuel, and might add to the
comfort Of several families in Beld-
ing.

dine church were success. The pas
tor preached in the forenoon from
Ephesians $50. The three choirs
furnished excellent music throughout
the day. In spite of announcements
by the pastor on previous Sundays
that big dinner would not be allow
ed, we never saw a better one pre-
pared. The afternoon program was
an excellent one, and good interest
was manifested. Fervent prayers OF
thanksgiving arose for Gods many
excellencies.
Some are registering for the Lans-
ing district conference. Are you go
