AMUSEMENT NOTES.
Nothing But the Truth" Next Tuesday
Evening.

Is farce in the true acceptation of
that much abused word and il will be
given for our local opinion at the opera
house next Tuesday evening, Septls.
II is all that the term farce implies-a
clean play of amusing scenes and alb
surdity of complications that sends an au-
dence away from the theatre saturated
with laughter. That is it's mission, and
it made good in New York City--where
it enjoyed laughing career Of over
year, and that, too, in the city of many
amusements. The only thing serious
about this play is its title, for when the
truth manifests itself in the efforts of
the hero to win a ten thousand dollar
wager, mirth and laughter are very much
in evidence, and an audience is guilty of
creating them both as it watches the
honest efforts of the earnest gentleman to
add ten thousand dollars to his bank ac
count by the simple way in which he
speaks the truth. And he does speak
it, and therein lies the complicating eff
fects of the plot. 1t is difficult to de-
scribe in print the absurdity of scenes
and situations, the general upsetting and
putting away business and domestic life.
and no farce. has ever been staged so re-
plete with these as Nothing But the
Truth" Anderson and Weber have Civ
en- the play cast that is said to fully
emphasize all of its mirthful possibil-
ties, and this should afford our local pat |
rons of the theatre, one of the enjoyable |
evenings of the current season, for it is |
a funny playAit has proven this by re-
peated performances and we are prom |
ised a splendid presentation of it here.

That doubt has been removed by the
vigor with which the United States gov

that inspired the adoption of the con.

the government is preparing for an army

the will of the majority as well as the
judgment of the military experts.
Twenty.six thousand new but we'll
trained and competent officers have been
provided for the army, which in few
weeks will be under training in the can.
tonments. At least 10000 more will be
provided in the second camps. There will
be plenty of officers for the training of
the new increment of 100000 men an.
nounced for January.
II was stupendous task that faced
the military authorities of the United
States at the beginning of the war. The
size of the regular army was insignifi-
cant. There was a dearth of officers.
Germany gleefully insisted that it would
be impossible to provide officers, equip.
ment and supplies for large army in
the United States. Even CONSUMPTION,
the German government argued, meant
merely paper army.

greatest potential factor in the world
