COMING TO THE ARCADE FRI
DAY AND SATURDAY, JULY
II AND 20.

Mo- since the munitions explosion
on Black Tom Island in New York
Bay had the countryside along the
north shore of Staten Island rever-
berated with such terrific concus-
sions as when Greater Vitagraph
staged its military scenes Of "Wo-
manhood, the Glory Of a Nation"
featuring Alice Joyce and Harry
Morey which is at the Arcade theatre
July q and %. The islanders turned
on en- masse to watch the sway and
surge of battle. They r the first
Americans, treated as a community,
who have any semblance Of modern
war tactics as conducted before
Verdun and on the Somme. Here
was a great departure from the old
fashioned type Of battle scene done
for show purposes.
Staten Island, a stones throw
from Manhattan, rocked under the
roar Of great guns to make Vita
graphs great spectacle for Ameri-
can military preparedness convinc-
ing. Staten Island saw the sky ablaze
at night with illuminating bombs. 1t
beheld trench mortars hurting their
explosives into the opposing burrows
q few yard away. It gasped at troops
sheltered by curtain fire hacking
their way through the barbed wire
entanglements to rush the snug,
sandbagged trench forts. It mar
yeled at huge howitzers and 42-cen-
timeter cannon. It shuddered and
retreated in a panic at the gas at
tracks with their sinister, safforn
clouds stealing before the breeze
upon the doomed defenders of other
wise impregnable positions.
Commodore j. Staurt Blackton,
who personally produced this picture
had the cooperation Of the 18th
Coast Defense Command, N. G. N.
Y, and accompany of regulars from
the United States Army. The $50
men Of this command went into
camp and lived there for two weeks
under strict camp conditions.
The ordinarily mild aspect of the
rolling terrain was changed with
pick and spade until it scanned like
the wrinkled face Of Mars with
trenches and bomb shelters. Then
positions and ambushes
alike were altered with the long
blue-black muzzles of heavy guns as
of destruction. Queer
engines, lurked in the trenches. Pipe
coils and gas masks and steel head
gear and hand grenades and para~
were behind the lines. Obser-f
walton balloons, aeroplanes and ar
mored cars were close at hand. All
these things had been assembled for
the big scenes.
And although days and days were
spent in filming these scenes and
hundreds of thousands of dollars in
securing them, they only. compose
vivid flAshes in the finished produc-
lion, lending atmosphere and color

HOLCOMB WILL
 HOE POTATOES
Connecticut Governor Ready to Follow Own Advice to h.
 crease Food Crops. E.

Governor Marcus H. HOlcOmb, Con necticut's seventy -twO-year-old chief executive, will spend considerable time hoeing this summer, for he has an- nOunced that he had plowed about all acre of land at his home in >SOuthing ton. that he would plant it with pOta- toes and that he would do the work himself. He has made application for the necessary seed potatoes to the Con- necticut Committee of Food Supply, which he appointed a week ago to work for increased food production in the state. .r
 II do not believe in asking other peo pie to do things I am not willing to do myself" said the governor. 'I want every citizen of this state to raise some food crops this summer, and I am go
 ing to try my hand at hOeing potatoes T believe there is health in the hoe. Al the present time no other factor in the national situation is of greater impor- tance than intelligent precautionary preparation to secure the largest pOssi kIe supply of foods. This year we wih be called upon to feed 0ther nations now at war if the conflict comes to an end soon. The demands upon us will ne greater if it should drug on through il long period. Every man G2usr do his part, and 1 propose to do mine.'

What Arc Xou Worth [

Have you any idea? Did yCu ever capitalize Your wages and figure it out? This iS the Way to ass ertain how much your labor is really worth.
 For instance. a man who has saved $20,O0O and invested it at , per cent re- ceives an annual income Oc $1,0OO q year, or about $2O a week.
 The clerk ill the office or the work. man ill the factory who gets $20 a week therefore receives the income at per cent oa an investment Of $20,O0O.
 He i5 q $20.00O man-that is, he is getting as much week by week as the man with S20.0OO who depends solely upon the income from his investment; {; and who does not work for living.
 The man who earns $40 n week has about the same income as the investor with S40.0OO put out at interest at ! per cent.
 So labor is capital. It has market value. It can he called a commodity because it can be sold by its owner tho same as any other possession he may have.-John \. Sleicher in Leslie's.

After one has ridden for few weeks on Tokyo trans he realizes that more than 20GO,OOO people, living within a radius of three miles of the imperial palace, require many trans to carry :. them. Seats are always at premium Even the New York subway is not as continually crowded. The trans are fast, well handled and plenteOus, but q moving stairway or sidewalk covering all the tram lines in the city would SC arCely fill the bill

SAVE FERTILIZER <. FOR CROPS; 5ONT'
 USE 1T ON LAWNS
Such Is Advice of Connecticut Food BOard;; Postpone NOn-
 productive Labor.

The Connecticut Committee of Food Supply has made two important sug- gestions to the people of Connecticut for assisting in the work of increasing the food production in the state this year.
 'In view of the situation which con- fronts Connecticut as well as every state in the country there must be no waste of fertilizer this year." said a statement issued by the committee.
 'The people of the state, if they want to help in the matter of increas- ing our food production so that we may be as nearly self sustaining as possible, must fOrego beautiful lawns this year to certain extent. Fertilizer is too valuable commodity in the sit uatiOn which we now face to be used on lawns. Such use in these days is nothing but waste. The farmers are finding difficulty in securing adequate supplies of fertilizer. Every pound of the commodity thrown on the lawns reduces just so much the supply avail able for ground which will produce food products. "he people of COnnec- ticut should see it as their patriotic duty this year to forego their beautiful lawns and permit the fertilizer thus saved to do it's part toward the produc- tiOn of fOOdstuffs."
 The second suggestion made by the committee is that owners of landed es- tates postpone this year all improve ments which can be put off and which would take labor that otherwise would be available for work on the farms. The statement of the committee says:
 One of the greatest problems which we face in this state in the matter of food producing is the question of labor. We must have men to work on the fG rms if we are to grow crops. Labor hired for improvements on landed es- tates is. for the most part, labor taken away from the farmers. We believe that Connectfcuts citizens will realize just what this means and will put off the matter of improvements on their estates and thus not compete with the farmers for the labor which the farm CTS need.'

Shotquns In War.

That shotguns should be largely uti. lized in modern warfare is the cOnten- tiOn of a number of military experts. It is pointed out that such guns would be particularly useful to sentries a5 night time, as an intruder might mora easily be crippled and captured by Il spreading charge of heavy shot than by a single bullet. Moreover person moving quickly might often be missed by shot from rife, whereas u snap shot from shotgun in semidarkneSG could hardly fail to find it's object.
 In the trenches shOtguns could be used with success. A shotgun loaded with about fOrty-eight grains of pow der and one and half ounces of big shot, with about twenty-five pellets, would be of much more value than the rife. as during night attack, either for attack or defense in semidarkneSS. a single charge would hardly fail to in fiict serious wounds on one or more of the enemy.-Exchange

A Motorcar Race In 1895.

In 1895 few enthusiastic "hOrseless carriage" manufacturers decided that the time was ripe for race. As we look back at it now the contest was q mechanical jest. The vehicles started bravely and then stopped lamely while their drivers made repairs. One in ventOr followed his mechanical wonder with team of horses. The winner of the race had averaged the mad speed of seven and One-half miles an hour. His engine, carefully tested after the feverish contest was over, was found to develop an amazing four horsepower. -Waldemar Kaempffert in Harper's MapaZine

ASK FACTORY HEADS
 TO HELP GARDEN PLAE
Connecticut Committee of FOJt Supply Writes to Man,
 ufaCtureTS.

Connecticut manufacturers are urged in a letter sent out by the Connecticut Committee of Food Supply to take up without delay some home garden plan for their employees. The committee has sent with these letters copies of a model home garden scheme, which it recommends to the manufacturers. The suggestion is made that con veniently located vacant land be blow. ed and that it be offered to employees for their use under expert supervision and that a charge be made for the use of each plot to cover the cost of pre- pairing the land and buying the fer tiliZer.
 Tine work on the plots would be dons, by the employees outside of workil::. hours and on Sundays.

Don't Be Afraid of Work,

Charles M. Schwab, the we'll known master of Bethlehem steel works, has no more patience with the man who works by the time clock than has Adam Bede with his fellow workmen who dropped their tools at the sound of the whistle. In his book Succeed ing With What You Have" he writes T have yet to hear of one instance where misfortune hit man because he worked overtime. Not long ago man was promoted in our works. How did you happen to advance this fellow! | asked his boss. We'll he explained, I noticed that when the day shift went off duty this man stayed on the job until he had talked over the days problems with his successor. That's why The man who fails to give fair service during the hours for which he is paid is dishonest The man who is not willing to give more than this is fOolish.'

 :.Frhere, you see, it is very simple. That is the way you do it."

Artificial eyes of rubber are taking the place of the old style glass optic in Europe. The rubber eyes have the advantage. cf1 being unbreakable, and as they are of pneumatic construction they maintain an elastic contact be- tween the eyelids and tine back of the orbitary cavity.
 To make the new rubber product a cast formed of liquid plaster is made of the orbitary cavity, and from this is constructed an eyeball, the face be- ing of vulcanite. The front and back parts are made of soft rubber, there being a space between the two parts which is occupied by air, making the eyes neumatic.-Popular Science Monthly. .

The Broken Broker,

The late Judge Pennypacker of Phil adclphia was an advocate of the ell , franchis ament of woman, but he alsC advocated justice in the relationship between the sexes for man.
 "Woman," he said whimsically one day at the Pennsylvania Historical SO cirty; mustn't play it both ways. She mustn't get the vote and the equal Wage, through mans sense of equity and then get all kinds of unfair priyi le%es through his sense of gallantry.
 'There's lot of truth in the story of the young broker who after his failure was thrown over by pretty girl.
