was one of the ri9st remarkable
character studies in the history of
the screen. It is a psychological les
son that reveals the ramifications Of
the human mind and the effect Of
such emotions as pride, jealousy. fear
and love in an analysis OF human mo.
tive.
The strongly metaphysical aspect
Of the story is supported by a tre-
mendously interesting plot detail and
the beauty OF the young star effec-
lively removes any trace of the over
scientific that may appear to exist
in the idea involved.
Miss Kane portrays girl who

and young college men-are needed
by hundreds to play the most thrill
ing and fascinating game in the world
the air game.
There is work and room and need a
plenty for them on the western front.
And just as the British have found
most of their best airmen in the prep
schools and colleges, they believe the
best American flyers will come
straight from the campus and class
room.
A British officer, high in war office
councils, thus summed it up today:
Suppose the United States within
six months is able to fly five hundred
machines on the western front
manned by the sort of fellows who
make the football, basket ball and
base ball teams. They would give the
Germans five hundred more machines
to combat. The boche cannot In
crease his output of machines very
much more while America can send
machines and pilots almost without
number. Together we could swamp
the Germans. We could make daily
raids on the biggest scale. But we
are strong enough in the air to keep
the boche on the defensive Imagine
the difference to the German command
If five hundred or thousand of fifteen
hundred aeroplanes and pilots-that
last named isn't too big a figure
were to arrive fresh and eager for the
new game. We'd fly all around him.
American school boys are very
much like the English and French
boys. They are sports They play
football and delight In taking chances.
That kind of a fellow makes the real
airman.
THE German air forces have had a
few stars, but generally we have
topped their morale They can't |
stand the pace-because they haven't |
the sporting instinct
Send on your school boys They'll |
ind the air game great one-the !
greatest game of ALL"

do not suppose it is quite as smooth
as normal times, but no one expects
it to be so. Regarding the food ques-
