very Successful entertainment

A good-sized crowd gathered
at the Christian church Saturday
evening to hear the splendid pro-
gram given by a group of local
Juvenile entertainers for fhe bene-
fit Of the Red Cross. From the
first number to the last the in
terest of the crowd was held by
these clever youngsters.
Many marveled at the ability
Of Marie Rowe as an accompan-
list, who had at previous times
made a record for herself as a
piano solist. In Bernice Martin
Nezperce audiences discovered a
new voice of remarkable sweet
ness and development and were
much pleased with the manner in
which she interpreted =" Annie
Laurie. Alice Gates, already
a favorite entertainer of the
town, again delighted her hearers
with her new favorite hits.
Margie Miller showed marked
musical talent, being clever at the
piano and also possessing a sweet
voice and ability TO sing against
a second melody.
Roy Cargill not only has an in-
strument Of unusual sweetness Of
tone. but has the ability to pro-
aueo a tone with clear sweet
quality. He especially played

BUILT FOR KINGS DAUGHTER
Famous French Road Constructed by
Louis XIV to Render Travel
More Easy.

The high road running along the
edge of the plateau of Craonne,
France, frequently mentioned in the
official communiques during the second
battle of the Aisne, and which is going
down to history under the nam of the
"Chemin DIES Dames," (the ladies'
way), dates from the time of Louis
XIV.
This road, beginning at the Paris
Maubeuge road, about ten miles north.
east of scissors, crosses the plateau
of Craonne, a distance of about twelve
miles, then descends into the valley OF
the Ailette to cross the Vauclero
woods to the domain of the ancient
chateau of Dove, near Bouconville, :
where the Princess Adelaide, Sophie
and Victoire, daughters of Louis XIV.
visited one of their ladies of honor.
Nine. de Narbonne, every summer.
The roads of the region were de.
testable. Out of consideration for the
princesses a new paved road was built
along the crest of the plateau and from
that fact it derives the name Of the
"Chemin des Danes"

She Used Her Voice,

The Waldorf-Astoria hotel In New
York has a maid with a voice. She
car yell louder than any Comanche or
the warpath. Recently she let loose
her voice and bellhops and porters
rushed to her from all over the big
hostelry. In answer to her cries she
pointed to one of the rooms. "There's
L~eprochauns In there" she cried, "lit.
tie devil men, with bald heads and
whiskers, leaping over the bed In yonr
der ROOM" "Leprochauns," cried o
porter, also from the Emerald isle, and
he devoutly crossed himself. "Iepro.
chauns, indeed" whimpered the maid.
"There they are in there. I went in,
and bless my soul, if these little devils
did not go leapin' about lookin' for all
the world like Paddy McFaduen's two
uncles over in Ballyshanon. Sure, !
won't go in there again, job or no job"
With compressed lips and doughty
manners, the little party of men went
into the room and then, after a sup
pressed gasp, they laughed. For gam
boiling about were two tiny marmosets.
"Pets, are they?" repeated the maid.
well, may be they're all right, but
they look like devils just the same,
and I'll have none Of them"

STARTLING EXPOSURE OF INNER LIFE OF KAISER AND CROWN PRINCE AS
TOLD BY COUNT ERNST Won HlTZENDONF TO WILLIAM LEQuELX

They, however, were shown into his
room to wait, and there saw upon his
table an abusive and scurrilous type
written letter in German addressed to
the emperor. Then it suddenly dawned
upon them that the affable young man
might be the actual author of those
Infamous letters, about which all Ber-
lin knew and was talking. 1t was this
visit which, no doubt, revealed to the
baron the young mans hiding place.
Both mother and daughter, however,
kept their own counsel, met Seeliger
next day, and watched, subsequently
learning, to their surprise, that he was
the son of General Won Trautmann,
and, further, that he had as a friend
one of the personal Wallets of the en-
peror, from whom, no doubt, he OBJ
tanned his inside information about
persons at court.
"When his father was arrested we
knew that the young man was living
In Brussels, and at once went there in
order to induce him to come forward,
make confession, and so save the gen.
eral from disgrace" said the pretty
girl seated before me. ION arrival we
saw him alone, and told him what we
had discovered In the Rue de Provence,
whereupon he admitted to us that he
had written all the letters, and an
nOunced that he intended to return to
Berlin next day and give himself up
to the police in order to secure his
fathers release"
"And why did he not do so?" I asked.
Because next morning he was found
dead in his bed in the hotel"
Fearing the emperor's wrath, the
Breitenbachs, like myself, dared not
reveal what they knew-the truth,
which Is here set down for the first
time-and, alas! poor General Won
Trautmann died In prison at Mulheim
last year.

MAN 'S DUTY IN WAR
 TIMES
(By United Press)

ATLANTA, Ga, Oct. 19. - The i'm. portance of the railroad mans part in helping America win the war cannot, be over-emphasized because it is cas- fly apparent that all the armies. muni. tions and food supplies produced by our country would be useless in the fight against Germany without trans. portation facilities. What good is gun unless you have a railroad man to take it where 1t is needed? And what good is a gun without shells without food for the men who fire it? This is the railroad mans job and his great duty to the nation at this time.
 I believe that as an engineer for the Southern railway, l am doing my bit to help America win the war just as much as the young men who are joining the army and navy. And by being efficient, watchful against dan gerous practices and by careful use of my engine I believe there is an opportunity to increase the usefulness of my services to the country in this emergency.
 l am making an effort to do these things The locomotive that I now drive has been in my charge for four years and eight months. During that time as a result of the care and at. tention give the working parts after ! completing my run, it has never been sent to the shops for heavy repairs. Altogether l have driven it over 272,. 900 miles without a breakdown. After each run l spend from thirty minutes to an hour going over each working part to see that no condition exists that may result in accident or break down while out on the line
 By keeping my engine out of the shop and by consuming as little coal as possible in running it, I feel that I am contributing my part to the ef- forts of my superior officers to pro- duce the maximum transportation eff ficiency which is necessary to win the fight, and in doing these things to the best of my ability I think I am justi- fled in the belief that I am doing my bit for my country in the present emergency.
