TULANE THEATRE

To perform with real success the
character of Shaekspeare's Hamlet
demands qualifications of so extra
ordinary a nature that a celebrated
critic declared that only once in
fifty years was found an actor ade-
quately equipped for this task. The
requirements are physical distinc-
ton, a trained voice and the highest
intelligence. Added to this there
must be an imaginative tempera-
ment and depth of soul rarely found.
The critics of New York have de-
clared John E. Kellerd to be pos
sessed of these qualifications. Will
liam Winter and Allen Dale have
declared him the most brilliant of
all contemporary actors. His run
of Hamlet at the Harris and Garden
Theatres in New York, which
reached 102 nights placed him by
common consent at the head of his
calling. This season he is the only
actor touring in Shakespeare and
has gathered around him the most
notable actors the American stage
affords. During his stay here, Kel-
lerd will present Hamlet, The Mer-
chant of Venice, Macbeth and Much
Ado About Nothing. Kellerd is COM
ing to New Orleans next week to
fill a one week engagement at the
Tulane Theatre.

Sunlight and Moonlight.

There are many magnificent phenom-

light and moonlight among the floating
vapOrs and crystals Of the atmosphere,
such as the coronas, or "glories," that
often appear around the sun or the
moon when the air is filled with trans
lucent clouds or with extremely minute
particles Of water vapor. Like the

Game Cock Greatest FIGHTER.

Probably the finest fighter in the
world, quadruped or biped, is the game
cock. He is a match for anything his

DON'T BE AN
INDIAN GIVER

Hold the War Savings Stamps you
have bought. Buy more. Don't cash
them now. You have loaned the Coy
eminent the money you have invested
in War, Savings Stamps for FIVE years.
Don't be an mpatriotic Indian, Giver''
and ask for the money now. Hold your
stamps until January 1, 1928 and get
your full interest from Uncle Sam.
Keep your stamps. Buy more fsthem.
Hats off to the citizens of St.. Cloud
The postoffice reports that not, one of
them has cashed War Savings Stamp.
Judging from the amount of Certifi-
Gates cashed by the citizens of Warren
and vicinity, $14,39469, the impression
seems to prevail quite generally that
the certificates should be cashed by
January 1, 1919. This is a false i'm
preston. Certificates are not intended
to be cashed prior to January 1, 1923.
Hold your Certificates and buy more,
buy to the limit, 100000. The govern
ment needs the money just as badly
now as ever, even tho the war is. over.
The people around Warren are excep-
tionally we'll off and there is no excuse
whatever for cashing in the stamps.

The Health Board of Washington

The Health Board Of Washington,

remedy which is said to be cure for
pneumonia. Take six to ten onions, ac-
cording to size, and chop fine, put in
large sauce pan over a fire, then add
same quantity of rye meal and vinegar,
enough to form thick paste. In the
meantime, stir it thoroughly, letting it
simmer five or ten minutes, then put
ina cotton bag big enough to cover the
ln,aee, aanA apply to. chest as hot as
\ atient can bear. In about ten minutes
apply another, and thus continue by re-
heading the poultices, and in a few
h6air The patient will be out Of danger.
This ,Aimple remedy has never failed to
curey this too often fatal disease. Us
a,ally three OF. four applications will be
sAaicient, but continue always until the
sDerspiration starts freely from the
ssachest. This remedy was formulated
a'many years ago by one Of the best
sphysicians New England has ever
d s4lknown, who never lost a patient by the
ssdisease, and won his renoWn by simple
remedies. I

Peat LAND TOBE
MADE VALUABLE.
Scientific Treatment Is q Sure Crop
Producer, Says County Agent
HUSKY. ~

Correct handling of peat lands will
revoluti0n1ze farming in the eastern
part Of Marshall county, declares
County Agent HUSKY, land this hereto
fore despised land will be converted in
to the best land we have'' 80
He declares that first and foremost
the land must be well drained, next it
must be packed, after which with a
scientific application of fertilizer it is
sure crop producer. The drainage
part of it has already been worked out
all over this county. ,.
The packing, Mr.. HUSKY says, can be
and is being done with heavy rollers
pulled by tractors. The cost of the
commercial fertilizer has risen from
the pre-war price of 81 SO per acre to So
per acre, though doubtless the price
will drop some in the near future. And
taking into consideration the fact that
the fertilizer has market effect on the
productive qualities of the land for
four years, the cost is not great, even
at the present price.
There are thousands of acres Of this
kind Of land in Eastern Marshall coun-
ty that have, up to this time lain idle
or else produced poor quality of wild
hay, which, with this treatment, can be
made into rich, productive lands. This
was demonstrated at the Golden Valley
demonstration plot last year, and this
year will be more fully shown by the
establishment of seven different demon
stration plots in this county. 81
The plan is to lay out three-acre
tract, one-third of which willSbe treated
| with the commercial fertilizer, one
third given'la coating Of ten loads of
manure and the remaining third left
natural. The grain and grass seed will
be >sown crosswise on the three strips
Of land, the purpose being to demon
strate the comparison between the pro-
duction Of the land under the two treat
| ments and the untreated. The demon
stration will show that MANFRED peat
is much better than untreated land,
which is usually total failure, while
the peat treated with fertilizer is still
better than the emanured land

Corporal Norman Anderson Writes to
His Parents in this City.

Dear Folks: =. .-..4 .-..--..., -: :.
/ have been on the move for a few
days so hav'nt had time to write. i
can just Imagine how glad you folks
are now that this terrible conflict is
over When left the states, didn't
think it would be over until next sum-
mer and I'm sure glad my calculations
were wrong I expect to be home at
least by spring now. If I'm here at
Xmas it will be alright because Uncle
Sam will see so that we will have a
good Xmas alright. We are quartered
in a little village Of about 500 people in
peace times but there is just a few
civilians here now, due to the fact that
fighting has taken place too close to it.
It's a quaint old village and 5must be
at least a couple hundred years old.
It's getting colder and at the place we
are now it is pretty muddy but we have
good clothes and I also have pair of
hip boots so I can keep my feet good
and dry. Am feeling fine and do hope
it's the same with all of you folks at
home. My Company hasn't got to us
vet so l hav'nt had any mail. I'll wait
and hope though and I'm sure I'll get
some pretty soon. I wrote to Herman
some time ago and I can't even get his
letter until I get to my company. !
can't even get an Xmas card in this
village. Now, if you don't receive any
presents from me, father and mother,
and all the rest Of you, it won't be be-
cause I don't want to send any, but
will be because can't get any. I'll
make up for it when I get home which
I hope won't be very long. Washing
you Merry Merry Xmas and Happy
Happy New Year, I'll discontinue this
letter. III So -.%...... - -
