Daven, were on their way to the battlefront No drums or bu- gles sounded and the only ceremony which attended the leaving taking was brief speech to the officers by Maj. Gen. Barnett, commandant of the corps The story of their quiet march from barracks was re- leased here tonight.
 At 2:30 o'clock the afternoon of the departure the baseball players had the parade ground all to them selves and no one was in sight on the post commandant A few sec onds later the head of column of soldiers of the sea, in khaki and in heavy marching order swung into the brick paved street in front of the commandant's house. Maj. Gen. officers from headquarters took up their posts on the turf of the park way beside the curb.
 The company officers of the batal- lion stepped out in front of Maj. Gen. Barnett and saluted. For half addressed them. He spoke in an ey- eryday conversational tone, which could not be heard half a dozen yards away, and the message was simply that he trusted that the marines who were getting out that day to fight under Gen. Pershing would staunchly uphold the high traditions of the corps.
 The officers saluted and marched back to their places. The battalion stood at rigid attention for a mo- ment Then. with snap, rifles jumped to shoulders, squads swung into column formation and the line passed swiftly on down the street to the gate of the navy yard.

 A quarter of an hour later rumor came to the bluejacket ball players that the marines were boarding ship. The jackie beside the home plate dropped his bat and ran down toward the street, his teammates behind him. But they were too late to catch even a glimpse of the rear guard.

atihg Blanche Sweet is the featured
artist on the Liberty program, The

the camp in which Natalie lives, fall
in love with the girl One is called
back to the city, leaving clear field
for his rival. He returns later to

the first time.
As their wedding day approaches
the girls secret of betrayal is uncov-
cred. All is eventually Strengthened
out through the girls father Chico
dore .Rcberts). hermit scholar and
philosopher of the woods. The
Storm" is gripping story and is
well named. Blanche Sweet is at her
best and the supporting company is

denizens of the jungle taking part in
the wonderful f, G. II. jungle Film
Company pictures at the Bijou theater

pearing before Che camera.

reels, was interesting from the start
and during the evening the audience

ter. Sally and Napoleon lived up to
the claims that have been made for
them and. did practically everything
but talk.
The films are actual plays in which
full company of performers take
part and show q. degree of intelligence
on the part Of these animals that was
truly astonishing. Charles Carter, the

short lecture explaining how the mon.
keys are trained. Tonight Sally will
