High School Girls
An Evening of Unalloyed Enjoyment

Lyceum League On Friday Night.
An evening of unalloyed enjoyment
is promised the people Of the city by

High School.
On Friday evening at the Lincoln
school the League win put on two one
act plays, 1.-THE Burglar Alarm" by
Helen Sherman Griffith, and "The
Kleptomanic,o by Margaret Cameron.
Both plays are intensely interesting
from start to finish and the histrionic
talent of the senior high school girls
is entirely sufficient to properly portray
all that has been put into them by
their authors.
The High School girls are presenting
these plays as means of securing
money which will enable them to adopt
a French orphan. Being confined to
their school duties they have not the
means Of employment by which to
earn money for this purpose and have
taken this course to raise money for
this laudahle purpose.
Following is the cast Of characters
of both plays:

MEETING THE GERMAN MENACE

Chicago Daily News-When we
Americans feel inclined to do a little
Boosting over the achievements of the
United States in stemming the tide
OF destructive autOcracy in a wal mad
dened world we should recall these
words of Mr., Lloyd George: IF the
United States of America were to call
to the colors the same number of men
in proportion to her population"-as
Great Britain has called-"it would
mean nearly 5000, 900 men," Wash
ington is talking now in terms of an
American army of 5,000,0 900 or perhaps
5000, 900 men. America, however,
must bear its full share of the war in
case necessity shall require it 10 fight
as France and Britain have fought
and are still fighting. Speed in put
ting men and still more men into the
battle will afford this nation the best
protection against such a depletion of
its man power at home as Britain
and France have experienced.

NAZAR

New York World-The capture OF
Nazareth by Gen. Allenby has the
double sentimental interest and mill
'tary advantage which has all along
attended the triumphant progress OF
the British forces through Palestine
More holy ground of Christianity is
redeemed from the Turk and another
effective blow is struck against the
Prussians in the east. The recon.
quest Of the Holy Land, indeed, has
become something more than a bril-
liant feat Of arms in a minor field OF
the var It's effect on the morale CT
Germany's h~alf-hearted Moslem ally
is bound to be profound. Nazareth
won after Jerusalem is a success fol
the allies on their eastern front
worthy of their victories on the west
ern front and calculated to inspire
them with a new vigor.

only those blue envelopes issued by
the Chief Q. NJ, A. E. F., and none of
these azure substitutes that have been
caught in the act. The certificate that
the letters within are strictly non-mil-
itary must be signed or the blue en-
velope Is useless. 1t may contain as
many letters as can be stuffed into
it, but they must all be from one sol
der.
There are certain passages in the
order which govern less the letter
writer's than their censors. There is
a stern warning to all officers who
may have tried or might be tempted to
try to lessen the %censoring work by
discouraging or actually f%orbidding
correspondence.
Organization commanders" the or
der says, will use every effort 70
cause the men Of their commands to
write regularly-at least one a week
to their parents or families. 1t is
to be distinctly understood that there
is no limit placed on the writing of
letters. No commanding officer is TO
limit the number of letters"
An officer who comes across a let
ter written in a foreign language he
understands may censor it; otherwise
it goes to the Base Censor, who is re-
spOnsible for the military innocence
of epistles couched in every tongue
known since the Tower of Babel.
Examining officers may not write
any remarks, sassy or otherwise. on
letters they are censoring. If they
ever tell any one the little private Sc
crets their job discloses to them, they
are flying in the face of a specific or
der and will probably be met with a
punishment that has a kick in it.
Any letter referring to a casualty
thereby passes out of the domain of
all local censorship. 1t must be cen
sorsed at the Central Records Office,
A. G.. d., A. p. O. TT, and should be
there addressed.

PERSHING HAS MADE GOOD

Springfield Republican, seems
time to say that no mistake was made
in the selection of Gen. Pershing to
command our armies in France. His
brilliantly executed operation in WHIP
ing out the salient of st. Mihiel and
making 10000 Germans prisoners of
war within two days need not be CIV
en- an exaggerated Importance in the
history of the var to demonstrate that
Pershing has made good, so far as
events have carried him. In his char
acter there is 40 sign of vainglorious-
ness, of buster or of %conceit; modest.
yet strong in his faith in himself, he
is direct and businesslike, the clear
headed man of action withal who de-
velops with his opportunities. Gen.
Pershing at this moment commands
the full confidence of his countrymen.
