THEATERS
REX TODAY

OF course, it is no news to anyone
that Charlotte Burton, the fascinat-
ing Mutual star, receives
on the average of twenty-five pro-
posals a day, but it might be news to
you to know that one of Charlotte's
last proposals came near resulting
disastrOusly.
It was while Lone STAR" the five
reel Mutual Star production, featur-
ing William Russell and Charlotte
Burton, was being filmed that Lone
Dog, a real Cheyenne Indian, who
was appearing in the production as
IAN extra, saw and desired Charlotte.
AT THE ELK0
1.-THE Witching Hour" Augustus
Thomas famous play screened by the
Frohman Amusement Corporation, in
six parts, under the able direction of
George Irving, will be seen at the
Elko theater tonight and Saturday,
matinee and evening.
It is rarely that one meets with
a photoplay production that has been
staged with greater fidelity to de-
tail, than has been employed in the
making of the "Witching Hour"
A perfect cast, headed by C. Aub-
ICY 0uI1Ius AAICAAO pAOPOA IACo oAu
decorations, beautiful and appropri-
ate exterior scenes, all add to the
strength of an unusual story, with
and a mental message of uplift.
1.-THE Witching Hour" has crowd
ed the theaters wherever played and
has received most unusual reviews
hV critics in the East. 1t is an ad-
mirable and thoroughly commend
able screen play.
GRAND TONIGHT
Essanay'S "Graustark" was shown
in September, 1915. Its popularity
is still fresh in the memory of photo
play theatergoers, and the sequel
gives fine promise of similar favor
In this instance the Prince of Grau-
stark visits America to borrow mil
lions of dollars to rescue his impov-
erished realm from the clutches of
Russia; whereas, in the first in
stance, young millionaire American
visited Graustark and married it's
princess, in the face of great odds
and difficulties. The prince of this
story is the son of that young mil
lionaire, and prides himself on his
American lineage.
The principal characters are all
happily cast. Bryant Washburn as
Prince Robin of Graustark, is light
hearted, generous and handsome,
and a persistent lover.

While writing on the topic of "Bak.

Indian corn is native of the new

of national wealth. 1t is so commonly

unripe stage, as green corn, and as a

Recruiting Slowly
 Since Registration

Little Rock, June IS. -Arkan- sas has not come up to it's quota in the recruiting for the regu- lar army, and the State Council of Defense will assist the regular army authorities in bringing the needs of the Government to the attention of the people.
 W. s. Clifford, Director of the National Council, in a telegram to Durand Whipple, Assistant Director of the State Council, says:
 Attention is called to the re- cruiting situation of the Regular Army of the United States. Only 23O, GOO men have been recruited out of a full quota of 300, 900. There has been very serious falling off in the, number of re- cruits, which, since Registration Day has fallen from 2,0OO per day to 400 throughout the en- tire country. Particular atten- tion is called to the fact that men between the ages of IS and 21, and between 31 and 40, in elusive, are eligible for enlist ment in the Regular Army, as we'll as men who have registered for military service. Men en- gagged in professions or trades necessary to the prosecution of the war should not be enlisted. It is exceedingly important that the Regular Army should be re- cruited to- it's full strength with the least possible delay"
 The day for the selective draft has not yet been determined up on by the War Department, but it is expected the plans for it's application will soon be worked out. and announced. Ample op- portunity is being given in the meantime for all eligibles to en- list in some branch of the ser vice. When the draft is made it will be equitable and just, each county being required to furnish it's proportionate quota, and ann pie and just opportunity will be given to prove exemptions. It is believed that there will be no more trouble with the draft than there was with the registration, as the men who are drafted are in all respects as honorable and as brave as the others. They will constitute the National Army and as such are expected to give a good account of themselves at the front.

After an illness Of six weeks little
Gertrude Parmenter passed away last
Sunday afternoon about six o'clock,
at the home Of Mr.. and Mrs. J.. l..
Meighen. Six weeks before she was
taken with scarlet fever, and though
she had recovered from that disease
various complications developed which
gradually wore out her vitality. She
had appeared to be slowly improving,
but her heart was too weak to stand
the strain and she suddenly collapsed.
Funeral was held from the home Tues
day afternoon, conducted by Rev.
Langdon. and the remains were bur.
led in Rose Hill cemetery by the side
of her mother who preceded her about
q year ago. Her father, who now
lives at Belvidere, had been here for
several weeks, and Mrs. Hoolahan of
Aberdeen, q sister Of little Gertrude's
mother, was here to attend the funer-
al. Gertrude was 2yrs. 10 mos. and
2 days old at the time of her death.
Since the death Of her mother she had
been cared for by Mr.. and Mrs.
Meighen, and by her sweet disposi,
ton, and a thoughtfulness and consid-
Grafton far beyond her years she had
endeared herself to the family in 9
