all gifts must be mailed early to in

Too many muffIers and not enough
sweaters are being furnished by Red
| Cross workers throughout the divi-
sion. according to Coler Campbell
director Of war relief work for the
Northern division OF the Red Cross.
Our soldiers need sweaters more
than any other knitted article. de-
| clared Mr.. Campbell. Their need
Is growing with the approach OF
winter. For the next few weeks 1t
would be most appreciated IL the
women throughout the division
would concentrate their work upon
sweaters. The other articles are
needed but there is not the impera-
tive demand for their production that
there is in the case of sweaters for
the soldiers"
That drastic prosecution of those
responsible for the misuse Of the
Red Cross emblem will be undertaken
by the authorities was indicated in
a bulletin received at the Northern
division headquarters, announcing
the appointment of w. NJ. Cutcheon
as secretary general for the Red
Cross.
Many merchants, some OF them
innocently enough, have made use Of
the Red Cross emblem for advertis-
ing purposes. Their action has help
ed pro- German propagandists to
spread false reports that articles
made for the Red Cross are not
going to the soldiers but are being
placed on sale, for the profit Of those
in charge of Red Cross work. Time
end again these stories have been
proven false, but still the rumors are
circulated.
With the appointment of a legal
adviser the Red Cross will be in
position to prosecute those who use
the emblem for advertising purposes
and to trace to their source the
faIsehoods that are becoming current
in relation to the organization. Mr..
Cutcheon will also act as adviser to
the Red Cross in all matters arising
in the work. He is a member of the
law firm of Byrne, Cutcheon &
Taylor of New York. He will serve
as counsel for the Red Cross without
compensation.

AnuSementS

With Frank Mcintyre. the prin-
cipal comedian with Klaw and Err
langer's musical comedy success,
| Miss Springtime, which comes to the
Orpheum Wednesday for matinee
and evening, its not a question OF
how to get thin. Whether anybody
loves him does not worry Mcintyre
so long as everybody laughs at him.
| Mcintyre comes of a robust Michigan
family. His father weighed ESQ
pounds and one of his brothers APP
proaches the same figure. When the
comedian steps on a scale it regis
| tiers $50. If it shows a pound or two
| less, he is actually worried. He con-
tends that a comedian who is fat
beyond the ordinary limits of man
kind has all the best Of it with an
audience, for when he first steps
out on the stage he gets laugh.
and then, If he has the native ability
and the part he is bound to score
for his audience is with him at the
beginning and there is no long and
trying wait for the first laugh. He
cites the instances of stage success
gained entirely by avoirdupois, mem
tioning particularly those of Marie
Dressler, May Irwin and John Bun
ny. all of whom first attracted the
public's fancy through their weight.
Also there is the genial Tom Wise,
who plays Falstam without any
padding, and is funny just to look
at. And this suggests the revelation
of a secret. Naturally Mr.. Mcintyre
is consumed with burning ambition
to play the fat knight in The Merry
Wives of Windsor.
The Libertine, which comes to the
Orpheum theater Nov. 8. and TO-
will offer local art lovers a rare op-
portunity to see some of the famous
paintings hanging in the Metropolt-
tan Museum of Art in New York
city. The paintings were loaned for
the production and were used in the
scene in which Jim Mills, "the liber-
tine" takes the girl in the story to
his summer home for an outing.
When the picture first was shown
in Chicago, it was suggested that
some of the reproductions might
have to be eliminated, as the origin
ais were from life in the nude. This
was met with the argument that
Fart is art" whether 1t hangs on the
walls OF a museum or is reproduced
in the movies from a painting, and
the scene representing the private
gallery of the millionaire clubman
never has been cut even by the most
conscientious censors.
The Libertine is the story of man
whose main ambition in life is to
win attractive girls to him by a false
show of responsibility and to leave
his victims to bear the burden Of
their shame alone. Departing from
the beaten path of pictures dealing
with the social evil by making its
villain man of high standing in
tie business world and Of social
prominence. The Libertine handles q
vital subject in a new and forceful
manner. The moral in this photoplay
is apparent throughout and is not
merely brought out to put the pic
ture over the censorship barrier"

RED CROSS WILL
STAY BY GUNS ON
TOBACCO GIVING
Officer Declares Men In
Service Are Entitled To
Continuance of Luxury
MANY FIELDS OF
WORK REVEALED
Report Of Activities
Touches on Numerous
Features of r. g.

Numerous protests have reached
the Northern division headquarters
in regard to the inclusion OF cigarets
and tobacco in comfort kits made for
the soldiers, the writer's believing
that many boys, not habitual smok-
ers, VIII become so, due to the ap-
parent encouragement of an organi-
zation like the Red Cross.
j: 7. Gerould, director of the de-
partment Of development for the di-
vision, explains the stand Of the Red
Cross on this matter. THE great
majority Of our soldiers" says Mr..
Gerould, are smokers. They derive
great enjoyment from the use of
tobacco. To deprive them of this
pleasure just because they have Of
fered to give their services and their
lives, II need be, to their country
would be working a great hardship
upon them, a hardship that would be
an addition to the hundreds they
have already to bear.
ANY boy old enough to bear arms
for his country and who has not yet
yielded to the temptation of tobacco
is likely to be strong wilIed enough
not to begin its use now simply be-
cause limited quantity of tobacco
Is furnished him by the Red Cross
IT is mole likely that he will give the
tobacco that thus comes to him 10
some comrade who is a user.
The Red Cross make no apology
Tor Its stand in this matter. We be-
heve men Of minds mature enough to
| make soldiers have determined
whether or not they shall be smokers
For those who have decided in favor
of the use Of tobacco, we believe we
should give what little luxury we
may"
Chain letters, purporting to have
been circulated by the Red Cross or
| some allied agency, have been report
ed to the Northern division head
quarters in large numbers. Most OF
these letters contain an appeal to
the superstition Of the recipient, de-
handing that the chain be continued
upon fear OF disaster that will fall
upon the person breaking the chain.
Whenever such letters have been
brought to the attention OF the di-
vision heads, their circulation has
| been discouraged. The Red Cross
stands sponsor for no such letters
neither does any bona fide organiza-
ton allied with the Red Cross. There
Is so much real work to be done for
the cause that the ejaculation of
these letters seems frivolous in the
extreme. Also the language in some
| OF the letters Is such as to put any
organization, claimed to be respon-
sible for them, in poor repute with
thinking people.
Another instance of pro- German
propaganda directed against the Red
Cross was discovered at Huron, S
d. when an anonymous letter to the
editor Of THE Huronite", was dis
covered to contain a protest against
the appropriation OF 100000 by the
Red Cross to medical research work
in France and Belgium. The protest
was based upon the alleged fear that
viVisection might comprise part OF
the research work.

On account OF the demand for
surgical dressings and knitted gar
ments to be shipped Immediately to
France and Belgium the Northern
