STATE COUNCIL OF DEFENSE
APPEALS TO DRAFTED men

To All Drafted Men in the State Of
Wisconsin:
Your government is about to apply
the "acid test" to your manhood and
your patriotism.
Within forty-eight hours you are to
go before an exemption board and
either "a without hesitation renew
your allegiance to your country by
saying, Il am ready" or (2) ask for
release from the call which your coun-
try extends to you.
In the solemn hours of reflection be-
tween now and then let your con-
science be your sole judge. If blessed
with physical strength, and if your de-
pendents are provided for, respond
quickly and nobly, thereby passing
your name on into history as one of
Wisconsin's noble sons.
Claims for exemption, based on indi-
vidual convenience, or to escape per-
sonal loss of money or property are
unworthy of consideration and will
not be granted.
From each one selected is demanded
some sacrifice A selected man offers
his life, and there is no greater sac
rif1ce than that a man gives his life
for others. He who secures exemption
falsely when he is able-bodied and
without dependents shirks his sacred
duty, besmirches his honor and sullies
the name which his children must
bear He thereby forces some other
man-his neighbor-to make HIS
sacrifices and take HIS risks.
The State Council of Defense,
therefore, makes this appeal to the
manhood and Americanism of Wiscon-
sins sons and urges each and every
one to remember his solemn duty to
his country in this hour of her SUI
preme need.
May we not have the same whole
hearted patriotic response when the
exemption boards meet that was ev-
erywhere evident on registration day?
State Council of Defense.

At the Theatres

Because Of it's story, it's acting, and
particularly because of it's two big
punches" Goods of Fate" has been
chosen for the attraction at the Class
ic Sunday. Many of the settings are
interesting in themselves. The pic
ture opens with two or three views of
the interior of an iron works; later a
signal tower in operation is shown;
and the atmosphere of life among the
labOring classes is gained successfully.
In the collision, a freight and passen-
ger train crash into each other at full
speed. The spectator holds his breath
as he sees the engines reduced to
flinders, and car catapulted clear
over the mass of wreckage.
The Offering at the Classic this ev-
ening will be "a Love Sublime" in
five parts. Philip, the faithful Greek,
like Orpheus in the idyllic tale, brings
back to life Toinette, the girl he loves,
by the very charm of his music. The
girl having fallen i'll, IS taken to a
hospital. Her room faces the square,
and Philip plays his music beneath
her window every night, even after he
is told that Toinette has died from an
operation. Residents of the square are
attracted by his music, and an artist
and his wife succeed in finding his
TOinette
Each Pearl Tear" will be the at
traction at the Majestic Sunday and
Monday. Diane, the beautiful daughter
of Roger Winston, confidential clerk
to Lorillard, a wealthy broker, is
just home from boarding school. This
is the start of a wonderful play which
exhibits the vanity of women and the
lust of wealthy men, carrying one
through the various phases of deceit,
treachery and dishonesty, finally por-
traying Diana as having been won by
the man who deserves her.
The thrilling scenes in the interior
of the mine in the Pallas-P Paramount
production of "The Lonesome Chap"
in which Louise Huff and House Peters
will be seen at the Majestic tonight
were taken seven hundred feet below
the surface of the ground in one of
the largest mines in California. The
regular miners were having the time
Of their lives by being motion picture
actors.
Marjorie Rambeau, the brilliant
young star whose motion picture
career bids fair to eclipse even her
fame as an actress of the speaking
stage, believes the new Powell-Mu-
tual fve-act production 'The Debt"
to be one Of the best photodramas of
the year. This picture will be shown
at the Majestic Saturday.
"Her Fame and Shame will be an
added feature at the Classic Saturday
It is a two-part scream, being full of
exciting comedy and the action is all
that could be asked.

Editor Star: VIII you kindly give
the widest publicity to the necessity
of early mailing of packages intend
ed to reach our troops in France by
Christmas and the fact that. such
packages must not exceed seven

The department advices me that
unless packages intended as Christ
mas presents for the troops in France
are deposited in the postofice on or
before November 18th, it will not be
possible for them to reach destina-
ton by Christmas.
The department further advises
that on account of the postal regu-

more than seven pounds can not be

If you will give these facts wide
publicity it will doubtless be appre-
ciated by your many patrons.
