Gated on a basis originated by Bis

The German people are 200 years be
hind as far as their political develop
ment is concerned, and their moral de
velopment has been entirely arrested.
Their leaders not only regard
terror and atrocities as a means to
win the war. but they encourage ard
print in newspapers the details of the
most unthinkable and cruel tortures
inflicted on zen and children and
decrepit people"
The idea mat the King ruled by
divine right in Prussia and was not
responsible to either Parliament or
people is taught in the public schools
OF Germany, where the children are
also taught that the Emperor is the
source of every benefit which the
German people derive from his pa
ternal foresight
Mr. Mcclure denied that the Ger
man people have made the great
scientific progress they claim. He
said that none of the great inven-
lions used in this war. such as the
flying machine, the torpedo, the sub,

Of German genius, but belong To
either England or America.

VARIED PROGRAM
BYPHILADELPHIA
ORCHESTRA GIVEN

It was a very diversified 'all
French" program that the Philadel-
phia Orchestra gave for its fourth
concert of the season at the National
Thester yesterday afternoon. 1t was
French music of four distinct types
that Leopold Stokowsid delineated
with a wealth Of Imagination, with
absolute mastery, and really peer
less performance from his orchestra
The soloist was Carlos Salzedo.
harpist, whose place in these four
corners Of France was in the most
modern school OF Debussy and Ravel.
Mr.. Salzedo is an exceptional artist.
He is in absolute accord with the
musical cadences, the strange and
lovely harmonies, the tone atmosphere
that differentiates this music from
all other. 4 master eXecutant, from
rare tone values OF exquisite delicacy
to most characteristic episodes and
virtuosity, yet II is as interpreter in
complete harmony with the orchestral
setting that one feels him most.
The two Debussy dances for harp
and orchestra were the most signi-
ficant. holding an ineffable charm.
The hrst, a "Danse sacree," with the
spirit of the East, held rHrest chord
effects for solo instrument, Debussy
harmonies and subtle rhythms,
themes given with beauty by the
strings or the harp. The "Danse pro-
fame" was all subtlety, too. The
harp gave a flowing. rhythmic i'm
petus to the movement, and In a COM
polling crescendo the entire effect of
covered tones was stirring. The
Rayel was more important for orches-
ira than for solo instrument. 1t was
given with distinctive values and
rhythm, while the solo cadenza at the
close was exquisite.
The symphony was the Saint-Saens
in A minor. In dramatic import Mr..
Stokowski divided IL between fair and
rugged moods, with a reverent spirit
suggestive of a Catholic country per-
meating IL. 1t has a clear and love-
ly orcheBtration. with a deep choral
quality, and IL was given with great
beauty and meaning in every detail,
the richness Of the fugus played pres
to, the delicacy OF the 8dagio. as
light as air, or the rugged, rough
string quality that spoke OF fate. A
truly etheriAlized sacred choral chant
ed its "benedictus" to the work.
The lighter spirit OF the program
was made up OF the ballet music from
the old French Journalism OF Gretry.
Artistry abounded in all this gracious
music. 1t was eXquisitely given, from
the stately minuet to the "gigue."
which in the old French always seems
akin to the Irish folk dance in It's
blithe humor. The program closed
with the Berlioz Carnival Roman"
overture, a biz OF singing music as
Italian in spirit as the Santa Lucia"
II was played with pure lyric beauty
and brought TO a round, rouslng eli
max such as Leopold Stokowski alone
creates. J. Mach.

FlOrida'S Governor
Would Suppress Bryan
During Term Of War

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. March s.

pressed for the rest OF the war

In an address before 5000 sol

Every mother swho mourns

WARNING

Little Rock, March 15, 1918. If there was any doubt as to the governments intention to prosecute those who hoard food, it was dispelled when Walter M. Ebel, director of publicity for the Food Admin istration in this state, returned from a conference in Wash ington with officials of the Food Administration, for MT. Ebel brought from the nation al capitol sincere congratula- tions to Hamp Williams, Feder- al Food Administrator for Arkansas, for the drastic ac- tion he has recently taken against violaters of the rules and regulations of the Food A Administration.
 The government is stand ing back of MT. Williams and every County Food Admins trator and approves prosecu- tion when such action is nec- essary. 1t does not like to prosecute anyone, but will not hesitate to invoke the full measure of the law to com mand~ obedience in food con- servation regulations. Fur thermore, there is ample pow CT given the State Food Ad- ministrator and the County Food Administrators. T h e time for many things being done is past" Washington stated. "If necessary, make arrests to get results; was the suggestion" said MT. Ebel.
 Another feature of inter est to Arkansas bakers is this |: If all bakers have not obtain ed substitutes for wheat flour by March 10th, their stores will be closed. The govern ment has given bakers ample time to get substitutes. Some bakers have made no effort to comply with the rules and reg ulations and make bread as the government specifies. The ones who neglect to provide themselves with substitutes by March 10th will not be allow ed to bake bread until they get the required amount of substitutes for wheat four"
 Secret service men have been sent out by MT. Williams to various parts of the state where hoarding of four and other food products has been reported. Some interesting developments are looked for as a result of their investiga- tions. Those caught hoarding flour vii be promptly arrest ed. The penalty is two years in the federal penitentiary, a fine of $5,000 or both.
 Yours very truly,
 Hamp Williams, Food Administrator for Ark

LETTER FROM McCRORY
 SOLDIER TO THE NEWS
Sergeant Elmo C. Marsh Saws He Is Now Receiving the Training Preparatory
 to Going Over"

Camp Stanley, Tex, March 19, 1918. MT. w. w. Raney,
 McCrory, Ark.
 Dear Friend Raney:
 1 want to write you a few lines this afternoon and wish to apologize for not doing so until now. Am kept very busy and really have very little time to write letters as our program from one week to another seems to get just a little heav- fer.
 l am receiving the paper regularly now and quite need less to say that I always vel come it as it is next to a letter from home. 1 noticed a very marked change in the last is- sue l got and wish to compli- ment you on the increased size and amount of news. Every week 1 read each item from front to back and am always anxious for the next issue.
 1 am glad to note the inter est you folk are taking in the Red Cross and Y. M. c. A. Work and wish you every suc- cess in your undertaking. A person cannot appreciate the works of the Red Cross and Y. M. c. A. Work in civil life nearly so much as he can in the army.
 The boys think a lot of the "Y's" and use them to every advantage. We have a nice "Y" building here and it is carried on by a dandy bunch of men. We have advantage of a Library, writing rooms, musical programs and all kinds of religious services. It seems to be the paramount ob- ject of the "" workers to make the life of a soldier a happy one and in every in- stance trends to that point.
 This is the closing of the sixth week here, the ninth week of the school. You see we were three weeks getting here on account of the quar- antine at Camp Beauregard.
 Ours is a very strenuous course and 1 think that a per son who spends the fourteen weeks here will find that he has been through many things he didn't know about. We study many different branches not ordinarally taken up in the regular course of instruc- tion until later on in the game. 1 mean that we are probably learning some things now that we shall put into use af- ter we have crossed.
 - This camp is an ideal one and I like it very much better than any I have been station ed yet, with the exception of Fort Roots and quite naturally

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications. as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that 10 by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition Of the mucous lining OF
the Eustachian Tube When this tube 10
tnflamed you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, aud when il Is entirely
closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the
Inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which is
an inf1amed condition of the mucous sur
faces Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces OF the
system
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Halls Catarrh Medicine. Cir
