ed by Governor johnson TO duty In
the San Fernando Valley. where
Thomas Dixon was filming his
mighty preparedness spectacle, THE
Fall OF Nation For a month and
a half these troops made heir biv-
ouac twenty miles from Los AN
geles; to all intents and purposes
their camp was on war basis; they
had their own quartermaster and
commissary and had guard mount.
At the end of the campaign these
men returned to their armories with
more than a theoretic knowledge of
their craft, their fresh hard, their
muscles strong and supple, and their
hides tanned by much exposure. For
this was no play battle that Thomas
Dixon staged. One little incident
he tells illustrates the reality Of the
fighting. A building In which wo-
men and children had taken refuge
was blown up by shell. A soldier
near the structure had been instruct
ed to die on the stroke of the ex-
plosion. This he did with great emo
ton. Complimented by Mr.. Dixon
for his fine acting, the man replied:
1T wasn't that, sir, 1t was the fire

SHOWED GIRL FROM HOME
THE SIGHTS OF THE CITY

He had been in the city two years.
Seeing him dressed in his tight-fit-
ting suit, wide-brimmed hat tilted
on his head, walking down Grand
avenue, you never would have guess
ed that the other twenty years of his
life had been spent in a small town.
In fact, the truth had almost be-
come vague memory to him. He
derful abandon he spoke of the cab
aret. the theater. cafes. actresses.
The folk back home? Oh, they were
very well: but it was rather a shame
they had wasted their talents in such
an out-of-the-way place.
So, when his old sweetheart came
to town one day to spend week
with her uncle it was only natural
that he should feel little disdain-
girl, and one time he had fancied
she was one OF the angels dropped
to earth by divine, yet providen-
tial, error. That, however, also was
nearly orgotten--for the young wo-
man never had appreciated his adj
miration for her. Strange TO say. his
feeling toward her was not recipro-
Gated. His wooing had bored her
exceedingly, and finally she had pnt

had never had and never would en-
terrain a feeling of greater warmth
than friendship toward him.
But he was charitable. More than
TWO years had elapsed since that UNI
pleasant episode. Now he would be
nice to her and maybe, with his
knowledge of the city, would be able
To make her sojourn more pleasant.
And, If truth must be known. it tick
led his vanity that, seeing the change
wrought in these two years, she
might have a tinge of regret for dis
missing his suit.
So he invited her to take dinner
with him at a downtown cafe one
night. He was at his best at the
cafe He persisted, in the face OF
protests from the young woman in
ordering especially the dishes that he
knew were not available at home. He
even spoke to the manager. who
passed near the table where they
were eating. imagine the effect. He
guided the theater and theater folk.
1t was quite evident that he was up
to the minute on these subjects, She
listened demurely when he spoke
carelessly of his work, which was OF
sort little known in the home town,
He slipped his cafe noir and smoked
cork-tipped cigarettes while she
drank coffee, with which she took
cream, thank you. And then came
finger bowls and the bill.
He carelessly realized into trou-
sers pocket for the money. Evil

change. All, yes; in his inside coat

NEW YORK, April 1S.--At the opening
today the cotton market was steady, but
prices were to 15 points net lower, re-
fecting the weakness at Liverpool and the
clear weather over the eastern belt. AT
the end of the first fifteen minutes it be-
came quiet and about steady, with prices
around the opening levels
Early news was more than ordinarily
conflicting. From the South came reports
that large tracts of land in previous years
devoted entirely to cotton culture would
this season be utilized for growing food
crops One concern in Mississippi Will
alone switch 2200 acres from cotton to
grain and other food crops. From this and
other States a serious labor shortage was
reported.
In the cotton goods market heavy Gov
crnment orders for duck and other materi-
ais are being received. OF especial interest
to cotton shippers was the statement made
by the Collector of the Port of New York
that the German and Austrian vessels re-
Gently seized here by the Government were
rapidly being put in shape to carry cargoes
of all sorts to the Allies
The market was steadier during the noon
hour, with prices up few points from the
lowest on covering General business re-
manned very quiet and the weekly report
of the Weather Bureau was considered a
stand-off.
Prices huctuated within a narrow range
in the afternoon. Near months were under
pressure of Wall Street liquidation at times
while scattered southern selling supplied the
new crop demand and also suggested that
improved weather conditions were resulting
in more satisfactory crop progress.

Of 1918. including two lots of 10000 tons
each for France and $4,000 tons fer the
