JOAN OF ARC" WELL PRESENT
ED HERE SATURDAY
written by Blanche E. Royle.)

Undoubtedly one of the best ANA
teur performances ever witnessed in
Simla was the drama Joan Of Arc
presented by the school children Of
Gilbert in the Big Four hall last Sat-
urday evening. From the rising Of
the curtain to the final fall the
youthful actors held the interest of
their audience by their splendid dis
play OF dramatic ability.
Miss Ella Burnside. who 80 admir-
ably portrayed the pure. humble
character of the Maid of Orleans
proved herself to be decidedly skill
full in dramatic art Miss Burnside
is an apt student In elocution. Every
word and facial expression pictur-
ed the part of Joan as she felt it.
Ebert has sufficient cause to bc
proud of its talented young folks and
great praise Is duo Miss Hutsell who
drilled the cast.
Joan of Arc" is drama with
an historical background based upon
the incidents of the war between thu
British and French in the fifteenth
century. Joan, young shepherdess
of France. won a place in history be
cause of her marvellous leadership
over the French troops and Of the
part she played in the battle of Or
leans in 1929. The story of her no
BILE life and tragic death were splend-
idly portrayed by Miss Burnside with
the support of talented cast.
Joan of Arc" is a drama apropos
to the times. The Maid of Orleans
was born and spent her girlhood
days, previous to her taking comman1
of the French armies, on the hills OF
Lorraine, that little country which
has played such an important part
in the present world tragedy.
It is too bad that a play OF such
vital interest and SO we'll presented
was not better attended since the
proceeds went to such a worthy cause
The Red Cross. Simla. with one
voice SHOULD speak its gratitude tc
the Ebert children and their direc-
tor for their splendid entertainment
which they afforded us.

PRESIDENT DENoUNCEs MODS
AND MOB LAW

Washington, July 26.-President
Wilson, Friday in personal state
ment addressed to his fellow country
men. denouncing mob spirit and mob
action. called upon the nation to
show the world that while 1t fights
for democracy on foreign fields 1t is
not destroying democracy at home.
The Presidents statement in full
follows:
my Fellow Countrymen-I take
the liberty OF addressing you upon
a subject which 80 vitality affects the
honor Of the nation and the very
characer and integrity OF our insti-
tutons that I trust you will think
me justified in speaking very plainly
about 1t.
II allude to the mob spirit which
has recently here and there very fire.
quently shown it's head amongst us.
not in any single region, but in many
nd widely separated parts of the
country. There have been many
lynchings and every one of them has
been blow at the heart of ordered
law and humane Justice. No man
who loves America, no man who real
ly cares for her fame. and honor and
character or who Is truly loyal to her
institutions can justify mob action
while the courts of justice are open
and the governments OF the states

do their duty.
I'VE are at this moment fight
Ing lawiess passion. Germany has
out-lawed herself among the nations
because she has disregarded the sa-
ere obligations of law and has made
lynchers of her armies. Lynchers EN-
ulate her disgraceful example. l..
from my heart, am anxious to see
every community in America rise
above that level with pride and a
fixed resolution which no man Or set
of men can afford to despise.
I'VE proudly claim to be the cham
pions of democracy. II we really are
in deed and in truth, let us see to 1t
say plainly that every American who
takes part in the action OF a mob or
gives any sort of countenance to a
mob is no true son of this great de-
mocracy. but does more to discredit
her by that single disloyalty to her
standards of law and of right than
the words of her statesmen or the
sacrifices of her heroic boys in the
trenches can do to make suffering
people believe her to be their savior.
How shall we commend democracy
to the acceptance of other peoples IL
we disgrace our own by proving that
1t is, after all. no protection to the
weak? Every mob contributes to
German lies about the United States
what her most gifted liars cannot
improve upon by way of cafumny.
They can at least say that such
things cannot happen in Germany ex-
cept In times OF revolutions when law
is swept away.

a spirit and a genius for action that
has thrilled the world. now call
upon 1t. upon its men and women

kept inviolate. its fame untarnished.
Let us show our utter contempt for
the things that have made this war
hideous among the wars of history

them on foreign fields. stand ready
also to illustrate to all mankind their
loyalty to he things at home which
they wish to see established every
