CONSERVE SUGAR

From war-ridden France comes
the plea for sugar--a vital food
necessity. -
Americans use twice as much sugar
as any people on. the face of the
earth. The French are struggling
along on less than l ounce a day per
person. We use 4 ounces per person.
They must have 100, 900 tons within
the next three months. Nearly all
of it must come from America.
Here is patriotic sacrifice all of
US can make:
Eat less candy-we are better OFF
without it. Cakes, especially iced
ones, and pastries are unknown in
France today. They were forbidden
in Germany early in the war. Past
ries, particularly. require needed
-four and fats as well as sugar.
Sundaes" or ice creams served
with heavy fruit syrups take an I'm
due amount of sugar. Many OF u!
use sugar to excess in tea and coffee
Christmas is coming on. It's no
the time this year to make gifts o
sweets. Presents this year must b.
useful, if never before.

The boys of the Tallulah High
School have recently received the
uniforms which they ordered, and
from the looks of things after school
has turned out Tallulah is becoming
quite military. At the beginning of

Guided in the work, and already the
boys have become almost soldiers.
1t seems now that their problem
rests in securing guns, which if they
manage to secure, will make the
drills more soldieriy. We understand
that the drill occurs sometime after
three o'clock in the afternoon, and
it is very interesting to watch them.
The exercise, alone, from this source,
is well worth the time thus spent
by them.

The shutter is built like any ordinary widow shutter and works from the drivers seat. It is for winter or sum- mer driving. In winter, close the shut ter and the radiator keeps warm and no trouble is encountered in starting but when the radiator becomes warm press a button and presto, it is just like any other radiator

prising is the similarity of form and structure between the plays of Shake speare and the modern photo drama. To some readers there may even seem a shade of biasphemy in the compari- son; certainly no two arts could at first sight appear more unlike. In Shakespeare the spoken poetry is all, the visual acting and setting are al most eliminated whereas the moving picture by it's very name eliminates the spoken word and tells it's tale in pantomime. Yet the two nevertheless attain their end by strangely similar means, through a form and structure and system of technical devices closely parallel in each, and sharply in con- trast with the methods of the modern stage. Among other things many of Shakespeare most characteristic ef- fleets, to which the ordinary stage can not do justice at all. have been brought to perfection through the medium of tho motion picture A public grown slowly dull to verbal suggestion remains easily suggestible to sight.
