This is the week in which a million
dollars is to be raised in America for
books for our soldier boys. We must
each do our part:
S1.O0 will furnish a book, keep it in
circulation, replace it when it is worn
out, and all the time pay a share of
the expense Of properly housing and
caring for these Libraries in the vari-
Gus camps.
One dollar apiece from the stay-at-
homes will give to those who are fight
ing our battles some Of the pleasure
they crave, relieve the pang of home
sickness and loneliness, and keep them
in touch with the life they have yacat-
ed.
If you have not already given your
dollar, and want to do your part, please
phone one of the local team workers:
Rev. Macon Wick, Mr.. Nathan Tamm,
Miss Laura Bradford, Miss Mary
Moore, or Mesdames Fred Whitehurst,

ence Berson, B. L. Capell, VIM. Kin

The United States government has
authorized the American Library Asso
citation to provide Libraries for u
fighting men. This will be made pos
SID, by a million dollar library war
fund. All money being collected by
the local team workers will go to
swell this fund. If your boy is a SOL
der you want to help his cause. If
you have not been called upon to make
this supreme sacrifice, you surely will
not grudge a liberal donation in mon
ey,
The Libraries so far established are
proving of ~incalculable value as ar
antidote for drinking, gambling anC
dissipation of all kinds, most Of the
men preferring a book to a pack o.
cards, a bottle Of rum, or a set of dice
1t is obvious that the task of ever!

able to lessen the burdens of loneliness
that fell upon the soldiers by supply
ing them with small libraries.
Do other Peoples Supply Libraries
for their fighting men? Yes. Early
in the wal the Germans instituted a
library service for all their soldiers
and fitted out as necessary part of the
field equipment, travelling Libraries Of
about two thousand volumes each, for
each army corps. These were fitted
up and sent out from the Royal Ii
brary in Berlin.
The people of our ally Great Britain,
provide Libraries for their soldiers
through no less than four volunteer
organizations. So it is that parcels
containing libraries go forward to all
parts of the world wherever the Brit

citizen who cannot fight is to help fur
nish these libraries.
Good libraries constitute one Of the
few comforts of home which relatives
and flie-ds can provide for the men IL
the United States service. This libra
ry war fund offers a definite way BY
| which these libraries can be provided.
1t is the only means for making surf
that each man not only receives the
one book which could be purchased
with the dollar contributed by a moth
er or a wife, but that he shall secure
another book when he has read the
first, and another when he has reao
the second one, and so on through the
period of his service.
There are thirty-two cantonment
library buildings to be erected. Skilled
librarians must be employed. AT once,
$4,000 fresh, clean books must sbe
purchased for the larger environments,
and these and the other reading mat
ter must be properly kept up and
maintained and transported. 1t will
be necessary to have sufficient funds
on hand so that the reading matter in
greatest demand among the soldiers,
textbooks and the like, may be dupli-
Gated and replaced and each library
maintained in a high state of efficiency.
One of the heaviest items of expense
at the beginning Of this work is cree
ton of the library buildings at the
various environments throughout the
country. Plans for these have already
been made. Each building will be
40Xl20 feet in size, n story high, and
will have accommodations for ten
thousand books, newspapers and mag
azines, and living quarters for the
staff. Each of these libraries will be
in charge eff a trained librarian. In

Without tnis class Of library service
any library would be a ueless thing.
1t is fc1 these services that the libra
ry war council needs 81 100000.
When it comes to consideration of
our soldiers and sailors, it is not what
a service costs, but what the best is
worth that counts. In view of the
great service to be rendered, the ques-
ton is not: what are we going to do
with so much money!" but rather, as
one eminent librarian has asked: "Win

Pasquali i%nterprets the role Of Jesus
and LYDIA gys appears as Mary. the
author Of the roles OF Judas, Peter
and many others OF less Importance
is excellent.
Aside from the obvious merits OF
"Christus," it Is free from two irri-
tating and totally unnecessary de-
fects which mar most moving pic
lures. In "Christus" the tempo Is
never hurried. The actors do not
jerk; they do not make aimless, buzz
fly motions with hands and feet.
Usually actors in screen dramas seem
obsessed with the pollceman's COM
mand to keep moving Those APP
pearing in "Christus" understand so
well the beauty OF harmonious line,
smoothly flowing movement, that In
this respect the play may be COM
pared with that unapproached cine
photographic masterpiece 'Cabiria."
The other unusual feature OF
"Christus'' Is that its captions do not
show the straininE for fine writing"
combined with StyRian ignorance OF
grammar. The text often is taken
literally from the limpid, beautiful
English Of the King James Bible.
When this is not the case the printed
descriptions OF the pictures are
couched in simple. dlgnified phrase
ology.
A number OF famous paintings are
fitted into the screen story OF Jesus;
among them the annunciation after
Beato Angelica; the Nativity, after
Corregio; the Baptism. after Peru
gino: Leonardo's Last Supper; the
Pieta after MichelanRelo and Dona-
tello's Mater Dolorosa.
