On The Screen
WASHINGTON

Patrons Of the silent drama are fast
becoming as critical for good acting
by those playing upon the screen as
they are demanding Of those Of the
legitimate drama. The fact that there
Is a general demand throughout the
country for higher art in photoplays
has brought forth new efforts on the
part Of producers to give to patrons
what they want, and that is one of the
reasons why the higher class of artists
are becoming identified with the
drama Of the screen.
1t is believed that public opinion will
accord to her proper credit for hav-
ing done much to advance the quality
of dramatic art as set forth on the
screen, especially a. shown In her
latest play. 1.-THE Tiger Woman"
Miss Bara is ambitious to become far
more than a mere person whose pic
lures may be admired or disliked, but
to be recognized as an artistic Of gen.
uine accomplishments. and from the
record she has made In the past there
Is not the least doubt but that patrons
Of moving pictures will extend to her
deserved recognition for her splendid
efforts in the sphere Of high ideals.

WASHINGTON

The arrival of Hell Morgan's Girl
at the Washington theatre on Friday
and Saturday will mark an unusual
event in local photoplay annals. With
cut being heralded as the greatest
ever" or guaranteed to embody all the
reforms and dogmas of civilization,
the play will afford stirring scenes and
a gripping interest that has seldom
been reflected upon the screen. It's
scenes are laid in San Francisco at a
period just preceding the great earth
quake and consequent fire.

din, Hardeman and Fayette counties
to inspect the crops, live stock and
farm equipment and to see expert dem
constructions in modern farm methods,
including the canning and drying Of
perishable fruits and vegetables.
The emphasis today was put on the
demonstrations in packing and grad
ing tomatoes, as most of the visitors
were from counties where the tomato
growing industry is prominent.
Today's visitors got to the farm
earlier than any otheis this week and
had time to go thoroughly into the
details of all the important branches
of instruction.
The series ending today has so far
surpassed the expectations of the state
division of extension, under whose di-
rections the meetings were arranged.
While it was expected that the num-
Der in attendance would be sufficiently
increased from last year to make to-
tai for the four days of about 5000,
it had not been dreamed of that 5000
would attend.

the Quarter Masters Corps. The de-
partment is deeply appreciative of
your generous and patriotic interest.
The plan of the association has now
been accepted and DR.. Mowbray and
DR.. Eckels have been to Washington
for another conference with war de-
partment officials, and it is expected
that bill will be drawn up for pre-
sentation to congress for the accept
anee of the Purple Cross Association
as an auxiliary of the Quarter Master
Generals department.
Although no official announcement
has been made, it is said that the pres
idency of the organization will be offer
ed President Wilson; that Secretary
Baker and Secretary Daniels will be
named viee-presidents, and that either
the treasurer of the United States or
some other high government official
will be selected as treasurer, who will
handle ell funds.
Right now we have more than
Sl50,000 pledged to carry forward our
plan" declared DR.. Mowbray yester-
day, "and we can easily raise S1O,-
100000 as soon as congress places the
stamp of approval upon our plan"
"The bodies will be embalmed in the
first line trenches or as close to them
as possible. They will then be taken
from the battle line and inferred until
after the war. By our up-to-date pro-
cess they will be recognizable for years
and will be in splendid state of pres
ervation when brought to this coun-
try"
The American Purple Cross move
ment has received nationwide indorse-
ment. Both branches of the Pennsyl-
vania Legislature have unanimously
passed resolutions calling upon the
war department to accept the offer, at
least as far as it may apply to troops
enlisted in or furnished by the State
of Pennsylvania.
Personal assurances, letters and tel
egrams have been received from the
governors of dozen states, endorsing
the work. The governor of Missouri
has personally written to the secreta-
ry of war urging the vital Importance
Of this work, has offered to resign his
governorship and go to Frances if it be
the judgment of the president that he
could be of greater service there than
in his present office.

Telephone Courtesy

The people who get the greatest
amount of good out of their telephone
are those who talk over it as though face
to face.
Courtesy smoothS out difficulties and
promotes the promptest possible connec-
tons.
The operators Of the BELL System
are trained to be patient and polite under
all circumstances, but they will do better
work if they meet with patience and
politenesS on the part of the telephone
users.
The fact that you cannot see the
operator or the other party should not
cause you to overlook this. The best
results come through the practice of
mutual courtesy.

Meat Stew With Dumplings

Serve with dumplings made as follows:
Mix and sift one cup of flour, two tea

gradually one-third of cup OF milk or a
little more II needed Roll out one-half
