a story or danger and adventure on
the western battlefront Of Europe is
told, in modest fashion in
a letter Just received from Phil Hoff-
man, a dupont Company man. who Is
In active service with the American
Ambulance Corps In France. Hoffman,
in company with Arch BIRMINGHAM and
John Nlckers, was on the dupont staff
at Haskell. New Jersey, and last June
left TO enter active service. Ills letter.
addressed 90 James Lynah, tells of their
adventure under fire bringing back
French wounded from the battle line TO
the temporary hospitals and OF men
killed beside them as they worked.
Through It all there is the spirit Of
never giving up which has distin-
guished the Americans on the battle
line and has cndeared them SO much
TO the fighting "poilus' of France.
The letter is as follows:
oct. 40. 1917.
Dear Mr.. Lynah:
-Four short months ago Wick, Arch

NEW YORK. Nov. 22.-More than p
100000 Americans gave s5oi53.ooi in
the recent campaign TO raise S35,0o0OOO

ISOLATION in obtaining funds for new

response TO their appeal for help IN con-

The Girl Philippa'
An Intense Drama
Moving, Not Motion, Pictures

"The Girl Philippe" which will
be shown at the Rex Theatre on
Saturday evening, May 26, is some
thing more than motion picture.
1t is moving picture. 1t is at
once an appeal to the emotions and
to the brain. And this appeal is
common to ALTO Young and old,
to men and women, to boys and
girls.
Doubtless the reason for this is
that 1.-The Girl Philippa" is a
healthy story. 1t stimulates mag
nation and heart interest and brave
devotion to a cause. Whether one
be soldier or dreamer, worker or
even drone, there is always reason
for everything. In this picture is
forcibly presented some of the big
reasons, the Zig motives, which,
however unconsciously to ourselves,
prompt our every act.
More or less this is to be expect
ed of story written by Robert w.
Chambers. His is a master hand in
the art Of character drawing and
plot development. His people move
because they are alive. They live
because they go through the prob
lens that beset us. They are fam
iliar to us all. The great author
translates them for us.
The Kendrick gazette. [volume] (Kendrick, Idaho) 1892-1968, 1917-05-25

In turning Mr.. Chambers mag
nificent story of "The Girl Philippa"
into colossal dramatic photoplay
production Greater Vitagraph did
something more than make a NOV
ing picture. 1t made Mr.. Cham
bers' characters live, breathe and
throb.
Whether it is dainty, charming
Anita Stewart as Philippa or An
ders Randolf as the william Will
dresse, or S. Rankin Drew as the
American artist Warner, the situa-
tions are tense in the skilful hand
ling which these super-artists have
accorded their work.
To see 1.-The Girl Philippa" is to
witness the panorama of intense hui
man emotions. Conceive royalty
born girl, kidnapped and forced to
be cabaret cashier and spy for
her abductor; think of that girl
with innately fine ideas and ideals
rebelling against an influence that
slowly and surely is dragging her
to the mire she does not mean ever
to reach; consider these things, and
you have something of the problem
that confronts Philippa. Miss
Stewards enactment of that role, a
most difficult because delicate and
subtle series of shedings. is a real
triumph of the screen. -21-lt

GREATER PROSPERITY

When the declaration of war
came many folks thought finan-
cial panic would be the result in
this country. Warning notices to
people to practice economy were
printed all over the land and often
they were misunderstood. Now
the feeling is spreading that great
er prosperity is coming to this
country than ever before. Of
course, it behooves us all to save
what has been wasted. We should
also raise more stuff. This is nee
essary because the United States
has to feed most of the world and
every particle of foodstuffs is need
ed for this purpose. The govern
ment has loaned millions to the
allies. This doesn't hurt the Unit
ed States. Most of the money, if
not all will remain here in exchange
for supplies. The war time de-
mand for food makes better prices
for the farmers of the middle west.
This country has had wonderful
prosperity during the past two
years and there is every indication
that there will be more prosperity
of the same type until the war is
ended. The entrance Of the United
States into the war will only add to
the general prosperity. The United
States has the supplies and there is
money to be exchanged for such
supplies. AS long as the United
States has thh bread basket of the
world, as it now has, there will be
constant demands for food from
that basket. All big business men,
the country over are predicting
greater prosperity than this country
has ever before seen. Our great
sacrifice will be in the lives of the
young men who are called to the
battle front. That's the appalling
part of the war. But as far as fin
ances are concerned the war will
leave us better off than ever. This
is no time for retrenchment. More
money will be let loose in this
country than ever before. And
more money should be spent for
permanent public work.
The Kendrick gazette. [volume] (Kendrick, Idaho) 1892-1968, 1917-05-25
USE NEW METHODS

The methods of meeting war
conditions show a growth in the
democratic spirit of the country
or at least better appreciation of
what the democratic spirit involves
in the half century that has
elapsed since the Civil War.
The selective draft was contrary
to the way we always had used for
the raising of armies. The only
reason why public sentiment swung
to it so strongly was because of the
general recognition of it's democ-
racy. People felt that it was only
just to make no discrimination in
the raising of an army for a democ-
racy, and that rich and poor, pa
triots and selfish men should be
alike subject to call. The adoption
OF this plan at the beginning of the
war marked clearer understanding
of what democracy involves than
we had at the beginning of the
Civil War.
When the draft was resorted to
in 1862 it was made undemocratic
by the provision that permitted a
drafted man to furnish substitute.
The story is told of the well-to-do
man who was arranging to hire a
substitute for his son. The substI-
tute wanted $1,000. 81 am looking
for a private, not for brigadier
general" was the rich mans retort.
That sort of thing would not be
tolerated today. Public sentiment
would arouse storm of indigna-
tlon If it were possible for rich
man to buy exemption for his son.
We have reached the point where
we insist that wealth shall not in.
volve the privilege of refusing to
do national service.
Democracy is still defective.
There are many respects in which
we haven't reached it. But we are
making progress.

Sell The Slackers

Every dairyman should, thru
membership in cow-testing asso-
citation or by making the weighings
and tests himself. make an extra
effort this year to find out just
what each of his cows is producing
i'll terms Of pounds of butterfat.
If the herd contains "slackers" it
is important that they be discover
ed very soon and dealt with as they
deserve. Especially when feed is
at such premium an animal which
cannot produce milk and butterfat
enough to make fair returns on the
feed she consumes has no place in a
dairy herd. The feed is needed for
the individuals which can economi-
cally turn it into milk and milk
products for human consumption.
Care should be taken however that
no animals are discarded, which can
profitably add to the nations food
supply. The dairy COW produces
one of nations most important
foods. Her great ability to add to
the nations food supply should be
more fully appreciated. No dairy
animal should be sent to the block
until she has been proven absolute
ly unable to produce butterfat eco
nomically. 1t is just as great a
mistake under present food condi-
.tions to sell for meat dairy animal
which can produce many times her
value in milk as to retain those
whose low production can only re-
suit in losses. Culling a herd is
important but as a basis for such
culling, we must have figures which
either condemn or commend an ami
NAL in terms of pounds of butterfat
produced.
