at his home Rev. Seth Russell DOWnie,
assisted by James Cattanach,
of Baltimore, Reys Hafer, Brady and
Marks, of TaneytoWn, officiating. In

His death was sudden, yet hardly a
surprise, the doctor and his friends
understood his condition, and knew

that time he practiced medicine here
at his native place. He was a skillful
physician and he always did his best.
But while he endeared himself to
many of the people of this community
as physician, it was even more on ac-
count of his high type of manhood,

was prominent in her councils, and al
ways ready to render service where

SCHOOL FOR HUSBANDS
IS GARRICK'S BILL

Delightful Fannie Ward, who has
supplemented her wonderful stage
career by winning phenomenal popu-
larity on the screen ever since she
was introduced to the photoplay world
by Jesse l.. LaslSy, stars in the Lasky-
Paramount production, A School For
Husbands. In this swiftly moving
farce-comedy, Miss Ward, who has
made her greatest screen success in
The Cheat, powerful drama. has a
wonderful opportunity to display her
talents as a coincidence, for which she
was celebrated on the stage. Begin
ming as priggish, puritanical wife
whose parted hair and glasses are a
source of constant annoyance to her
sportively inclined husband. Miss Ward
blossoms forth as q veritable society
butterfly under the spur of jealousy
and teaches her erring spouse a we'll
deserved lesson. Jack Dean, Frank FL
lott, Mabel Van Buren,, Edythe Chap
man and James Neill are among the
supporting cast in this screamingly
funny picture. 1t will be presented at
the Garrick Monday and Tuesday.

It is not only my opinion but my senti- ment; feel myself being spiritually renovated.
 The perfection to which Germany has brought the organization of false hood will in itself disgust the world with lying; beginning with falsehoods regarding the origin of the war, false hoods regarding first expressions, falsehoods regarding the first use of sunocating gas, falsehoods at all times and on all subjects, prepared and dis seminated with all the perfection of German method, will make the world hungry for truth and candor.
