AT THE REPUBLIC TOMORROW

Smiling George" Walsh, who will
be featured at the Republic Theatre
tomorrow, comes here in his newest
William Fox vehicle. "The Kid Is
Clever" a story which has thrill and
a laugh in every foot of film.
The athletic star takes the role of
Kirk White, young American who
can't find enough excitement in life.
His father sends him aboard a ship
with motion picture company which
guarantees to provide the proper
amount of spice Kirk overhears.
When things begin to happen ON
that ship, he thinks the cinema ccm-
pany is to blame. But they missed
the steamer and band of Mexican
revolutionists are the cause of The
trouble.
OF course there's girl in the plot,
and she is in love with Kirk.
1.-THE Kid is Clever" is George
Walsh's first production under a new
director, Paul Powell, and it more
than maintains the swift pace of
other George Walsh pictures. In the

FALL OF FAMOUS STATUE ENDED
 TnC WAR

LONDON, Dec, l4- People Of Al bert, France, are convinced that their prophecy has been fulfilled that when the famous statue of the Madonna at Albert fell the war would end in a victory for France and her Allies. Tn. quaint conceit grew out of the fact that the statue was diSlodged by Ger man shell fire from its perch on the tower of the church at Albert during the first mad rush of the Huns Frausc in 1914. The base of the stat ue was sa shattered that it hung over the main road from Amiens to Ba- paume which passed the walls of tho church.
 The statue remained in that strange Boise after the Huns had been rolled back by the Marnc. An effort was made to brace the statue in its recum- bent position 50 that it could not fall

until the tower itself gave way.
 When the British line was driven back in March last the Huns again entered Albert and when the Germans retired at the beginning of the Allied offensive the tower with it's statue had fallen. This, curouisly, marked. the high tide of German invasion. From that day on the Hun hordes were pressed back. The people of AL bert delieyed luck of the Germans de- serted them when the Virgin of AL bert had fallen.

ITALIAN PHOTO
INVENTION MAY
SAVE AIRMEN
Signal Corps Studying De
vice Usable When
Danger Is Less.

An italian Invention which per-
mits Of excellent photographs be-
ing taken at night has ben submit
ted to the Signal Corps Of the Unit
ed States army.
According to the men who con-
troll the new device 1t will soon be
possible to take excellent pictures
of enemy positions from airplanes
flying at q low height on moonlight
nights. 1t is also claimed that the
invention can be ftted to moving
picture cameras. which would per-
NIT photographing for the screen
the actual fighting. much OF which
takes place in the early morning
hours.
Samples OF the work of the new
cameras give views taken by moon
light and by the light given by
night flares. The pictures are clear
in detail and when enlarged bring
out features. which would not be
discernable to the naked eye.
Up to the present time. one of the
chief obstacles to be met by the
aerial photographers was the fact
that in the daylight flying the anti
aircraft guns forced the fiiers to
take pictures from a great height
and much Of the detail Of the enemy
lines was lost As one of the chief
objects OF photographing the enemy
positions Is to locate hostile camou-
faged artillery, photographers have
frequently been forced to take great
risks in flying at low levels in or
der to achieve their aim.
1t is held that fiiers are in little
danger from artillery when flying at
night, and It is believed that the
new device may result in greatly
reducing the risks undertaken BY
the photographers of tho Signal
Corps.

ATHIGH PROFIT
Bought as Scrap at $78.67,
| Now Priced at $4,000
By Dealer.

The 5000. 100000 Fortincations
bill. passed by the House Monday.
was referred yesterday to the Sem
ate Appropriation Committee. which
will begin hearings on the items In
the measure before the end OF the
week.
It IL expected that when the hear
tngs begin the Senate Committee
will probe more deeply into the
terms OF the contract entered into
By the Ordnance Department for the
purchase Of abandoned navy guns
from Francis Bannerman. of New
York. dealer In arms and equipment.
The House refused to allow the item
of s45o.0oo which was to have been
paid to Bannerman for 80 inch guns,
according to the contract. It Is
probable that the Senate Committee
will attempt to ind out something
more about the terms OF this con-
tract and the actual value OF the
guns, which Bannerman rated at
$4,000 each.
Further light on the interrupted
deal with Zimmerman 10 given In the
testimony Of Admiral Ralph Earle.
chief OF tho Ordnance Bureau, of
the Navy. before the Notifications
Committee Of the House. The testi-
mony has Just been made public.
In this testimony Il 10 shown that
Bannerman bought eighteen Of the
guns in 1913 for 37s,67 each. and the
others are believed to have been ac-
Quired from Luria Brothers, of
Reading. Pa, to whom they were
sold by the Navy Department for
less than $500 apiece.
stin Good for Field Work.
Admiral Earle. In response to
questions by Chairman Borland,
testified as follows:
Those guns were taken from cruis-
ers Of the Newark type. These are
s-inch 30 caliber gunA Mr.. Ban
herman has gathered I. together from
year to year . motley collection of
ordnance. some Of Il is good and some
OF II not 50 very good, but all OF
1t q little out OF date, and he has
now come to the fore with a propo-
sition to sell these guns. These par
ticular 6-inch 80 caliver guns would
be Of no value to the navy, because
they are OF too low velocity and are
OF too short . range, but they are
certainly good for field work or for
anything that does not require ex-
treme range, which would be the
case 20 far as fighting in the trenches
Is concerned. These 6-inch guns are
of some value on shore to be used
against trenches and against troops,
but they would be Of no value on
board ships"
May Commander Them.
Col. Samuel McRoberts, chief of
the Procurement Division of the Ord
nance Department testified before
the committee that the transaction
was held UP because the War De-
partment wanted to ind out Just
how much the guns were worth and
how much Bannerman had paid for
them. He conveyed the hint that If
the army cannot get the guns at a
fair price they will be commandeered
Gen. T. c. Dickson, Chief of the
Control Bureau of the Ordnance De.
partment. told the committee that
the guns are In splendid condition.
He recommended the allowance Of the

guns from Bannerman.
