The picture taking campaign Of the

by the 10th OF this month with the
richest harvest Of motion pictures and
stu views ever taken in the twenty
three years OF his career.
From New Zealand, Australia,
Samoa. Hawaii, China. Manchuria,
Korea, Japan and Alaska have been
brought back the widest possible va
riety of the most interesting scenes in
the daily life OF the people, in the
characteristic setting OF each country.
The pictures have been especially
taken to visualize the answers to
many inquiries such as How Is the
new government railway coming along
in Alaska" DO the Fiji Islanders
still practice cannibalism?" Are
Dawson, Atlin and Fairbanks still pro-
ducing gold?" How do the geysers
Of New Zealand compare with those
Of the Yellowstone?'' and Can an
American make money in any Of these
countries in raising rubber. or sugar.

One reason for this state of af-

opportunities to the scene painter
The play opens in Russia with a
wedding feast in a semi-royaI
palace. What could Mr.. Hammer
stein do more than display the
wealth OF Russian nobleman in all
its luxurious magnificence? The
story then shifts to Old Stamboul,
Turkey. and the scenic artists again
exerted themselves to picture the
Oriental richness and quaintness of
a Turkish street with its wealth of
gatly-colored architecture Then, in
the third act, comes another climax
in the rich artistry of a Viennese
cafe where once, before the present
terrible war, assembled the wealth

WHEN PEACE SHALL COME

When Peace shall come, mankind shall raise
Their grateful hearts in songs of praise,
Tho some be sad Ger vacant chair,
They'll thank the Lord for loved here.
When Peace shall come, hurrying tread
Of soldiers gathering up their dead.
No wailing cry spirits leave,
Where the Master stands ready to receive
When peace shall come, think of the change
No shall be slain, neither friend foe;
But shoulder to shoulder each shall stand,
AS friends, not foes in FREEDOMS land.
When Peace shall come o, gloriuos thought!
No more shall we look for those that not,
But dear who live will then return,
And tell us of struggles where camp-fres burn.
When Peace sham come, think of the change
Of soldiers in valleys or mountain range,
To their homes, how-e'er humble they may be
Where mother is waiting to welcome them in
When Peace shall come. o blessed thought
How many changes shall be wrought,
No more shall loved trembling stand,
Awaiting from foreign land.
When Peace shall come, o God divine,
Crown this whole world with Peace sublime;
Let soldiers homeward make their way;
With Peace shall dawn brighter day
When Peace shall come, mankind will go,
Back home to toll with pillow or hoe,
Or what soccer their station be-
With Peace shall come prosperity.
When Peace shall come. Peace nation wide!
Secure on Freedoms ship We'll ride;
No fear of cannon, shot shell,
Transforming earth like unto hell
When Peace shall come! All battles oer
Sweet peace shall reign from shore to shore,
Till every mortal here below
Shall kindly think of bygone foe
When Peace shall come! Eternal peace,
And earthly warfare here shall cease,
Then every batte-searred hero shall stand
At judgment; the saved at the right hand.
When Peace shall GOMEZ Then soldiers all
Shall make answer to Gods rol-call
And warriors whose battles for God fought,
Shall dwell in mansion His hands have wrought.
Lies journeys warfare, each warrior must fight
Then enlist in the conflict for God the right;
And tho here below you may not have won fame,
Up there in gold hero" may stand by your
Where the beautiful river of Peace shall flow;
No sorrow, no sadness, no fighting, no woe,
But Peace, eternal with JOY and love,
For the warriors who've conquered home above.

A SLICE OF BREAD

A single slice of bread seems unmportant thing
In many households slices of bread daily
thrown away and not used for human food. Some
times stale quarter, half oaves thrown out
Yet goodsized slice of bread-such as child
likes to eat-weighs 1t contains almost
three fourths of of flour.
If every of the counrys 20O00,000 homes wasted
on the average only such slice of bread day. the
try is throwing away daily 100000 ounces of
four-over $4,000 pounds enough -four for over
million 1-pound loaves day. For full year at this
rate there would be a of 319,000000 pounds
of hour-1 500 900 barrels-enough flour to make $685.
000 600 oaves.
As it takes AZ bushels of wheat to make barrel
of ordinary -four this would represent the flour
from over 100000 bushels of wheat
Fourteen and tenhs bushels of wheat on the av-
erage are raised per acre 1t would take the fruit of
100000 just to provide single tlice of
bread to be wasted daily in every home.
To produce this much calls for army of farm
ers, railway men, four-mi people. To get the flour
the calls for many freight and the
of many tons of coal.
But says full slice of bread is not wasted
in every home Very well-make it daily slice for
every every 10 or every 80 homes-make it week
y monthly slice in every homeor make the wasted
slice thinner. The waste of -four involved is still APP
palling-altogether too great to be tolerated when
wheat is scarce
Any waste of bread is inexcusabe when there
many ways of using stale bread to cook delicious dish
The United States Department of Agriculture Wash
ington, D. G., your State Agricultural College will
tell you how to stale bread in many ways.
MOST EVERY special school district of any import
around Sprin gdale voted twelve mill school tax
at the recent school election The Springdae district
is in just hard financial straits any district in
this section and the should have voted twelve
mill here But there opposition
developed to any at ALL and the ten mill tax is
far better than tax at all. What can't under
stand is why any should be opposed to school
tax, when the schools the very foundation of
government. Let's prepare to vote twelve mill tax
next year.
