Lieutenant Colonel Ralph B. Par
rott, commandant of the third officers
training school at Camp Dodge, an
swers unhesitatingly:
They will make officers of first
class quaiity-intelligent, efficient, re-
sourceful"
The war department adopted the
most effective system it could discover
to make certain that the national
army soldiers, who were admitted to
omcers' training schools, should be
material for making good officers.
Candidates for admission to the
training school were compared to Of
ficient officers in the service and were
graded according to which officer they
were most like, the most efficient, the
next, or the next.
There was nothing abstract about
1t. The system worked upon definite
things. Lieutenants made such CON-
PARSONS first to base their recon-
mendatiOns to their captains, and
then the captains made similar COM
PARSONS.
The officers they compared the men
to were officers they knew well and
they knew the men well through their
associations as their officers.
There were 900 candidates for the

An Atlantic Port. Feb. 1S.-Dr. Ar.
thur N. Davis. court dentist to the
German emperor. the only American
who ever had a chance to pull the
kaiser's teeth out, arrived yesterday.
No sooner had the ship arrived than
a squad of United States intelligence
officers surrounded Dr. Davis AMI
piled him with questions. They ap-
peared to be solicitous about the
health of the kaiser, and deeply inter-
ested in all Information from Berlin
and Potsdam. But what the dentist
told them is their secret.
When the secret service men had
finished DR.. Davis met another group
who were no less inquisitive. These
were reporters. and they are sorry
for the secret service II it failed to
get more information than they did
because what they got was not much.
"Of course, under the eircum-
Stances" said the dentist, you won't
expect me to talk much. left Ger
many on Jan. % under a permit from
the emperor"
Are conditions in Germany as bad
as reports indicate-food conditions? p
he was asked.
well, I don't look like a starving
man, do II" parted DR.. Davis. mo;
conditions are, not SO bad as they arc
painted"
Then the Interview ran like this:
Q-How's the kaiser feeling these
days? Al can't discuss the EN-.
peror's health.
! Q.-How are the Americans treated
in Berlin? Al think there are only
about a score of Americans left there
and they are not badly treated. We
had to report twice week to the po'
! lice, but were not interned.

At the Majestic.

At the Majestic.
Because Herschel Mayall was re-
quired to go through the difficult and
ambiguous business Of blowing
through his nose" in the new William
Fox picture, Treasure Island to be
seen at the Majestic tonight, 1t was
impossible for any one to work in the
enclosed studio on the Fox lot for an
entire afternoon. Blowing through the
nose is a phenomenon which can be
heard but not seen. 1t requires an ex-
tremely, adept blower to get over
this piece of business in silent form
before the camera. Mayall didn't have
the proper time for rehearsals; conse-
uuently it became necessary to ar
range some tangible evidence which
would prove each one of his blows.
This was done by sprinkling gray
powder on the tables, chairs and orna-
ments about his quarters at the Ad-
miral Benbow and instructlng the
player to blow only in the presence
of the powder. So vociferous were
HerscheI's snorts that within ten min
utes after he began putting the build
ing was filled with dust. Children had
violent fits of sneezing. Other play
ers doubled up. Cameramen forgot to
grind, strong directors quailed before
the mighty onslaught of the sneeze.

At Spencpr Square,


Today the Spencer Square theatre
will have the pleasure of presenting
to its friends the latest WorldPicture
Made in which Kitty Gordon is
starred This picture bears the inter
esting title Of THE Divine Sacrifice"
and it is even more vitality interesting
than the title. The picture tells a
story of mother love-mother love SO
strong and pure that 1t sacrifices ev-
erything for the happiness of the child.
Miss Gordon in the role of the mother
is seen to the very best possible ad-
vantage and it is certain that she will
add thousands of admirers in all parts
of the country. One of the very inter-
esting features in connection with the
showing of this production is the pres
ence of Miss Gordon's daughter in the
cast. 1.-The Divine Sacrifice" has been
staged in a lavish manner and, OF
| course, Miss Gordon wears the most
gorgeous gowns imaginable. That is
one of the reasons why her plays are
so popular with the women-the la
dies know that they will always see
the most superb sort of frocks when
they attend a Kitty Gordon attraction
