BEST THEATRE.

Mary Pickford, the Aircraft star, who recently scored tremendous success in "Rebecca of Sunnvbrook Farm" will again portray delight ful role of child life when she ap. gears at the Best Theatre today in her latest Aircraft picture, "The Little Princess" which is a screen version Dy Frances Marion, of the book by the well known Anglo American nov elist, Frances Hodgson Burnett, au- thoress of "Little Lord Fauntleroy."
 The picture was produced at the Aircraft studios in California under the direction of Marshall Neilan, who is the director of a number of Miss Pickford's successes. v
 In "The Little Princess" Mary Pickford plays another charming role from a child life, depicting the story of Sara Crewe, known to thousands of readers of the novels by Mrs. Bur- nett. Sara Crewe is a girl just about the same age as Rebecca, and those whose hearts were captivated by Miss Pickford's performance in that famil- jar story by Kate Douglas Wiggin, will see "America's Sweetheart" in another role equally delightful.

Wasting Time.

If time be of all things the most pre- cious, wasting time must be, as Pccr Richard says, the greatest prodigality since, as he elsewhere tells Us, lost time is never found again; and what we call time enough, always proves little enough. Let us, then, be up ana doing, and doing to the purpose so D? diligence shall WI /, more with less perplexity. Sloth m:.h2s all things diff fcult, but industr.. all easy and he that riseth late must trot all day, ans' shall scarce overtake his business ar night; while laZiness travels so slowly that poverty soon Overtakes him. Drive thy business, let not that drive thee; and early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.-BeNja min FrnnFlin

The Horrors of War

Those who have not experienced the horrors of war only know of it's ter TOTS by 'hear-say," but even then it's bad enough.
 But terrible as death on the battle field may be, it has no more terrors than some other things, a life of grinding, pinching poverty, for in stance. Death amidst the roar and crash of battle is frightful, but death is at least mercifully the end. But to live and struggle on from day to day in poverty, possibly under a load of debt, but little hope. just struggling along wearing the life away by inches, that takes courage and is enough to try the stoutest heart. The way to avoid this is by systematic saving. Our bank will do it's best to save you from a fate worse than the horrors of war.

STRESSES WORK ON
THIRD LIBERTY LOAN

Daughters of the American Revo1u.
'loh: II there is in any quarter any
misunderstanding in regard to the one
ed-thousand-dollar pledge of the
National Society, D. A. R., for the DIR
chase OF the United States third Liber-
W loan bonds, let it be clearly under
stood that the object in making this
loan to the government is not to helm
our d. A. R. society, but to help the
government in the present need for
money to carry on it's crucial campaign
to win this war.
1t IS true that individual D. A. RS
nave subscribed large sumo for this
purpose. $2,42S0OO on the first Liber-
ty loan as reported from thirty-three
states.
Just so long as the government
needs money to win this war, Just so
long will gigantic projects to help the
government be devised and carried to
a successful issue. 1t is possible that
any member of the Daughters of the
American Revolution, the greatest pa
trlotlc society in eXistance, would sug-
gest that we abdcate our high place
as a recognized power in the land, in
order to evade raising a 81 per capita
pledge from the 100000 members?
Through the individual gifts of the
daughters of the American Revolution
splendid results have been achieved.
Inc spirit Of sacrifice has shown like
a star in these lurid skies-the great
d. A. X. heart has responded, it's pulse
has throbbed in sympathy with every
appeal OF patriotism or humanity
Small chapters have taxed themselves
to the very limit. Large chapters have
been lavish of their welth But as
corporate body we have not as yet
done anything worthy of our history
and worthy of the occasion. For this
reason we have felt it would be appro-
pirate in some combined movement to
write ourselves helpers of our govern
ment in its hour of need, in letters
clear cut as a cameo, thus fulfilling
the inarticulate prophecy that we D.
A. r. WOmen-worthy defendants of
the fathers OF the epublic-memoral
lists in stone and marble of unrecorded
heroes and heroines of the revolution,
will still go "over the top" when the
bugle sounds the charge
This hundred thousand dollars when
raised, should be turned over to the
United States government, in exchange
for Liberty bonds, the government pay
ing the per cent interest to our ma
tional treasurer. When these bonds |
mature, it was the intention of your
committee that both the principal and
interest be appropriated by the Nation
al OAR. congress for whatever might |
be the most pressing and worthy pa
triotic need such as care for the Or
phans and other dependents of our
own American men killed in the war, |
the training of our blinded and NAMED |
soldiers or some equally appropriate
and compelling work of succor and of |
mercy.
We may rest assured that when the
time comes for action upon this mat
ter our national congress will act wise
ly, with the best Judgement and the
highest patriotism.
