LET TREASON INCLUDE SPECU-
LATORS.

Treason should not consist merely
in levying war against ones country,
or giving aid and comfort to those
who are levying such war, but it
should include those who seek to en-
rich themselves out of the necessi-
ties of war to the detriment of the
public good. The man who would
corner product and hold up its
price because the national perils en-
able him to do so, him we would call
traitor also. We want TO go into
this war with few ideas like this
we'll defined and we should adhere
to them. The man or men who seek
to enrich themselves out of the dang
ers TO the nation are the men who
need to be branded with infamy.-

DEBORAH GIRL "wILD RosE.o
Miss Ruth Swezey Selected as One of
Sixteen Candidates for Iowa
Historical Film.

Miss Ruth Swezey, of this city,
daughter of DR.. and Mrs. A. j. Swe-
zey, spent the past week in Des
Moines, having been selected as one
of sixteen candidates in the state for
the leading role in historical film
for the state of Iowa, entitled THE
Wild Rose of Iowa" The young wo-
men were guests of the Iowa Histor-
ical Film Association which will
produce the picture. They are being
filmed by Roland Groom, an Iowa
boy, who made good with the big pro-
ducing companies. 1t was his task
to choose the one wild Rose" who
is to have the principal role. At the
end of a weeks rehearsal he selected
Miss Katherin Hassel of Burlington.
She will travel all over the state of
Iowa posing in the film which will
show the wonderful scenery of Iowa.
The picture is being taken at great
Expense and the sixteen girls could
not be taken on the trip all over the
state, but will be called on when the
company approaches the towns in
which the girls reside.
While in Des Moines the young
girls were entertained by the Wo-
mans Club, Governor and Mrs.
Harding and state officials. When
the picture is completed it will be
shown throughout Iowa and will then
be placed in the historical archives
of the state at Des Moines, and seal
ed up, not to be opened for twenty
five years.
A group picture of the sixteen
girls and Governor and Mrs. Harding
appeared in the Des Moines and
Cedar Rapids papers last Saturday.
Miss Swezey was selected by the
Monday Club of DEBORAH to repre-
sent DEBORAH, and we think the club
made very good selection.

wife, parents of a member OF the
First Iowa cavalry, from the bench,
today. Judge Howell was in the dis
trict court, Wlen the parents came
to him as a soldier, asking that he
secure the discharge of their son,
who had served eight months on the
border. The major told them the
young man was worth more than ever
to his country, and urged them to
change their minds. They refused,
and declared they wanted other peo-
pies sons to do the fighting, If any
had to be done. The judge grew ir-
ritated, and dismissed them with
this statement from the bench: If
you don't think this country that is
giving us protection and prosperity
is good enough to fight for, why
don't you leave it, and go to another
land over the seas?"

MARGUERITE CLARK
 AT LAMARA TODAY

Marguerite Clark's latest screen ve- hicle, Helene of the North" presents this dainty star in the most unique characterization she has yet assumed since her triumphant debut in motion pictures, under the management of the Famous Players Film Co This latest five-part feature on the Paramount program combines in a decidedly novel manner the cultured atmosphere of aristocratic society circles with the rugged environment of the trackless wastes of Northwestern Canada.
 Between these far extremes the drama sways with uninterrupted fasci- nation, and whether in the lmitless wilds, or the warm, luxurious drawing room, Marguerite Clark is equally eff fective and enchanting.
 Aside from the extraordinary atmos pheric qualities Of this dramatic TO- nance the entire construction of the story is very original, beginning as it does in the fashionable home of an English society lady and developing from the sheltered spot into the open spaces of the Canadian woods, where a virile melodramatic plot ensues, culmi- hating romantically in the cozy corner where the drama began.
 Included in this divergent contrast of scenery is every emotion and element of drama possible to a modern romance. Fine pictorial effects have been ob- tained in the scenes centering about the activities Of the Northwestern Mounted Police in their attempts to

GRAIN

CHICAGO, Jan -(Wheat)-An- ticipating a general covering movement the traders opened the wheat market four cents over Saturday, the response from the shorts was small and the out side buying of little consequence. The selling was renewed and the market had steady decline. from the opening until within half an hour of the close when the May delivery showed loss of 91s cents from the opening There was some covering near the close and the market showed a net loss from Sat urday of 3% cents The primary re- ceipts are fair the exports appear to be large and the visible is still com fortably large for this period of the year. Apparently there is 6 contrac- ton in consumption as the statistical position at present does not agree with the expectations of a month or two since. As long as there is no eager ness to buy wheat for the milling or the export trade. there will be a slow market. The price is subjec~ to rallies as a fairly large short interest is de- veloping.
 CORN-The corn market failed to hold, suffering with the break in wheat The large receipts held fairly well and the accumula tion of supplies continues. The prospect of an increased corn visible usually dominates the situation at this time of year and has already developed q low price and the market having dropped under q dollar, a great many traders are likely to show dis
 engagement and help to weaken prices.
 OATS-Oats were in sympathy with corn, the exports last week were again large, but the visible reflecting only a small loss compared with expectations and the course of the market will run with that of the other grain.
