Lcos and the direction is by John
Emerson.
"a Flying Trip Through the Ha-
waiian Islands" was most artistically
produced. Members of the orchestra
demonstrated their skill on the ukulele
and the chorus sang one Of those Ian
guorous Hawaiian melodies. Greek
Evanss rendition of Keep the Home
FIRES Burning" was also artistically
rerfect. He was assisted by the chorus
in Red Cross uniforms.
Valeska Surratt, in "The Siren" is the
featured picture at the Academy for
the first four days OF the week.
Tn. picture is an unqualified success,
inasmuch as Miss Surratt wears wonder
full gowns. impersonates sixteen
ycar-old girl with ringlets, runs gam
bling den and finally gets herself shot
through the heart by the nan she has
betrayed. The last named performance
gives the greatest satisfaction TO her
audiences. as she undoubtedly de-
served il.
The story tells Of lawyer who goes
West TO settle a will which one Of his
clients has made. This entities the
hero to clip the coupons from several
millions of United States bonds. but
provides that he give the daughter Of
an old friend $4,000 Vsleska uses
her charms on the young lawyer until
she finally persuades him to allow her

ceive the $4,000 legacy he wicked
prosper for a time. but finally the
siren is overtaken by her Nemesis. and
the hero marries the real beneficiary,
who also wears ringlets. That is the
story in nutshell, which is quite
large enough TO hold the plot. Miss
Surratt is excellent in the title role. and
the supporting cast is adequate.

IRe.education Feature

Washington. June PA conference
of ten experts, including physicians
from different parts of the country,
to-day laid before the General Medi-
cal Board of the Council Of National
Defence series Of recommendation
for the establishment Of system of re-
education and rehabilitation for men
who may be manned and crippled in
the war.
Their conclusions are based on
study Of the experience OF England,
France, Canada and Germany in aid
ing these men TO become self-support-
ing in spite Of their injuries. Euro-
pean countries have found il vitality
important 70 approach the problem on
a systematic and scientific basis. after
neglecting it during the earlier months
of the war.
The physicians studying the question
have found that OF the whole number
of crippled men at least so per cent
and probably more can be reeducated
or trained to new occupations If their
physical defects are given immediate
treatment after they have left tho
army hospital and their training re-
ceives proper attention.
Many Need Treatment
From 20 to so per cent of the wound
ed returned to Canada have needed re-
construction work. The allied nations
have been giving much attention lately
to finding proper OCCUPATIONS for the
blinded and hose who have lost limbs.
A great deal of study has also been
given TO placing on their feet once
more men whose nerves have been
shattered or who have become dis
heartcncd as a result Of wounds from
which they have recovered
The conference recommends that n
permanent committee be formed 10 lay
plans for the proper organization OF
the work, 20 it war cripples into their
old occupations if possible. or If they
are incanacitated for the work they
have done before. 20 find new occupa-
tons for which they are mentally suit
cd Particularly, they hold the most
modern mechanical apparatus for corr
recting physical defects should be made
available at the earliest possible date
for all disabled soldiers needing il.
Public Needs Education
All this work naturally requires tho
proper education Of the public in order
to secure places for the men after their
education has been completed. Those
who framed the report were: Or.

A CERTAIN BEAUTIFUL REAsoNABLENESS

IL
have friend know you'd like to know;
She is an artist above everything,
Which means in her above temperament,
Aud all the Announcements of shallow art,
Which for its own protection blinds itself.
Her heart is Just as ample as her soul,
Which is itself as golden as her heart,
As vital and and ovable.
She doesn't need to tell about her SOUL
She couldn't hide it, and you're glad she can't.
She's comfortable when you talk TO her,
And vet she makes YOU somehow feel as though
Won should have helped that lame across the street,
And next time you won't swear at Tonic
Because he brought the papers after SIX
1fayhc YOU even hand him out snack
of something hot and ask about his ma,
Who has "brownchtis something terrible
Won see her souls as human herself
She makes you think of happy things like home,
And freplaces cosey plates and cups.
4 drink Of water on d summer night,
The CHEEKY things that pop into your head
When any one you love is in the room.
I've heard a lot of celebrating folk
Saw artists are all Ego-worshippers
Who give the world the hewbread when they're through
perhaps it's true with Of them, at least
The ones who tell you must think it is;
II couldn't be they learned it from themselves.
But she's an artist, and she's not like that:
She's more like what l know my mother IS,
And what I'd like my wife to think Of me;
And lastly she's the kind can love-
And saw so too, and know she'll never think
He meant he loves himself, and other things!

+. 2. Goodrich, director Of the state
military census in this city, last night
declared that 100000 men and women
would have to register to-day in order
to complete New York's total, which he
now estimates at 100000.
According to a report from Albany
last night nearly 100000 persons out
of an estimated total of 100000 had
registered up to yesterday throughout
the state. Census officials said that
the value Of the census had been
proven, and that lists of men who had
expressed a desire to enlist in some
branch Of the national or state service
had been sent 10 the proper authorities
daily.
Reports reached Mr.. Goodrich last
night that the Socialists in many sec
tions are planning to wait until the
last hour tonight 70 register.
"If the Socialists attempt to storm
the registration places in an attempt
to register at the last hour" said Mr.
Goodrich, they will ind that we Will
have MANY additional registrars on
hand. and we will try to enroll all who
apply. But If they are unable TO reg
lister because they have waited too long
7 will not accept their excuses, and
every man and woman who has not reg
istered by 10 o'clock tonight will be
subject to arrest and imprisonment
Mr.. Goodrich visited two stations in
Chinatown yesterday afternoon, where
Lee Tuck, representing the Chinese
American Citizens Alliance, reported
that 900 Chinese had registered during
the day. The total registration of Chi
nese is estimated at 3,400. Many sig
nfied an intention of joining some
branch of the military service.

Three teeny, weeny Chinese maids
approached stranger one day not long
ago. 1t was in Shanghai, and the
stranger was Of the English-speaking
race, although Of that am not so sure.
The stranger was a reader OF THE
North China Herald With shyness,
coy and smiling as the first blush Of
the wild rose, and with that quaint
grace, dignity and determ nation which
come alone from the consciousness Of
noble act well done, however dis
agreeable, the three little maids pre-
scented their petition to the stranger.
| do not know who the stranger was.
| feel morally certain, however, that
the petition went TO wrong person.
For the three wee ladies were from
"the Chuan Yen Higher and Lower
Primary Girl School" and their petit
ton was addressed TO no other at least
such is my profound conviction than
TO you, the women of the United
States. And | make this statement
without the slightest misgiving, al
though, to be frank about the matter,
cannot tell the "Chuan Yen Higher
and Lower Primary Girl School" from
Ewes own kindergarten, or do know
whether it is on a fairy star or really
in China. All that doesn't matter any
way. But the petition-it is for you,
ladies, of that | an sure. You shall
judge for yourselves.

Five years have passed by since the
