DRESSINGS NEEDED
 BY THE RED CROSS

The quarantine has been lifted. 1t now becomes incumbent upon the War ren District to make up for lost time in the making of surgical dressings. For the purpose of calling the atten- tion of the loyal. patriotic women of the Warren District to the resumption of this highly necessary class of work. and informing them of the hours dur ing which they can, at their own best convenience. devote their time to the helping of their country. the following schedule of hours and places of work is published:
 BISBEE-The Woman's Club. Qual- ity Hill: Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, l to f; Thursdays and Fridays. 10 to 4.
 WARREN-Red Cross Rooms: Mon days and Tuesdays. 10 to F; Wednes- days and Thursdays, 1 to A.. Fridays, 10 to l2.
 The temporary cessation of the max ing of Red Cross dressings has thrown the Warren District behind in this most important work. Let it not be said that we cannot work hard enough to put ourselves abreast of any com munity in the country.

Myrtle Dingwan. playing the title role, sang light opera airs with power and expression. Joe Kemper's senti- mental songs and the ehara-ter songs of Billie Cochran look very well.
 Mrs. Ed Redmond played the part of the jealous wife as true to life as a red rug in front of an old fashioned fireplace.
 Miss Marvin Hammond, the daugh- ter Of the house. is sprightly and sang her songs in a fetching fashion.
 All in all. the company that will show at the Orpheum up to an in eluding Sunday night is well worthy Of the patronage of the district, it the Dazzling Dora play is a criterion of it's repertoire. If you go you viii enjoy the singing and the music and you will laugh long and loud at this Redmond person in his real and high class comedy imperscnatiOns.
 And the chorusl Hesvensi To have forgotten the chorus would never have done. They dress gayly and often and sometimes not very much they sing pretty well and they can dance 6 little and they gre not bit bad looking. AND. they are very shapely; very shapey indeed

Bisbee missed Max Figman, the ia nous comedian, on account of the smallpox quarantine, but as soon as the bars were lifted she drew Ed Red nond. some comedian himself, if you please. Anyway. a fair sized house at the Orpheum last night thought so, if laughter and applause counted for anything. The Follies company, open ing in Dazzling Dora" scored dis tinct hit. The lines of the play are clever enough to make up for it's lack of connected plot; the musical airs are catchy and the company, with the aid of the never-tO-be-forgotten Ed wards himself, put it ever in good style
 There are many very funny situa- tions in the play and Redmond took full advantage of them to send his audience into spasms of laughter. As an old man with a jealous wife and an opera star on the side Out not far enough on the side to be out of sight of said wife's eyesl Redmond is a scream. No slapstick CT rough stuff in his work Just class. He does 1t with a chuckle or a hem and haw or an ejaculation or just facial expres- sion

8 Don't Waste Garden Stuff. y

Now that the gardens are full of
vegetables and in many cases more
than full it might be well to observe
the following notice recently publish
ed by the Food Administration:
Surplus garden truck may be
utilized by giving it to those who need
it. Did you ever stop to think that
this would save the produce being
drawn upon in centsrs that have facili-
ties for canning and drying available !?
Gardens, small and large should be
harvested closely and clearly from day
to day as rapidly as the vegetables
develop into edible size Small beets
should be utilized as greens, peas and
green corn picked before they become
hard and woody. If it cannot be uti-
lized by the family, canned or dried,
give it to some poorer or more unfor-
tunate nighbor who can take care of it.
Let nothing waste this season."
If you do not know of any one to
give your surplus to, let your local
Red Cross know what you have and
possibly it can be disposed of in that

plete figures from every county in the

brings to an end the suspense that has
surrounded the Democratic statewide
sensational primary.
With the official returns of AZ out of
So counties canvassed by the county
courts and with the officially certified
reports from the other counties Col

has a majority of 375 votes over for

slightly.
The Chiffon majority of $50 in in
Wayne county is reported to have
dropped to SOP and slight change
may be had in Lincoln county. In adj
dition to these the county court can
vases in several other counties, which
will be made on Monday, may show a
slight change. No other can be made
however, that will materially reduce

Film Sensation Coming TO Shepherds
town Opera House.
Gerards Four Years in Germany
Most vitality Interesting Picture
Of the War.

My four years in Germany, founded
upon james w. Gerard's book of the
same name, will be the attraction at
the Shepherdstown Opera House on
dnesday, Thursday and Friday,
August 21, % and %, with matinee
each day at 2!45 and two night shows
each night at 1880 and 9:45.
Nothing in recent years has won
such general commentator as this
of the historical ducu-
ment prepared by the former represen-
tive Of the United States at the Berlin
court. Motion pictures generally are
q portrayal of the imagination of some
professional scenario writer, but in
TINS case the scenes portrayed actually
happened and the characters are the
men who were trying to shape the des-
TIMES q the whole world. Fiction
could RJt attain to such dramatic
heights rs does the story written by
Mr.. Gerard from the personal obser-
walton when he was in Germany. and
he supervised the preparation OF the
MIN 50 that nothing would creep in
that was not actually a reproduction
OF what lad taken place through his
oNlL peL-Vdi anu ulreCC knOWIoQge.
The spectator sees before him on the
screen such noteworthy makers of
present day history as the Keiser, Won
Iirpitz, Won Jagow, Zimmerman, Sir
Edwin Goschen, Won Hindenberg and
the United States Ambassador himself
There is not an American who would
not have sacrificed several years of his
life to have been present at the final
interview between Mr.. Gerard and the
Kaiser when the latter declared with
ilrmness that America never will
fight.
But the film goes on further. The
spectator IS taken to the German pris-
on camps and scenes that actually
took place there are reproduced
Scenes at Great Headquarters of the
German Army, in the Reichstag. in
SaraJevo, where the archduke was
murdered and an excuse given for the
beginning of he war, the mobilization
of German troops, their entrance into
Belgium, the debate before the Hun
chieftain of the demands of Wilson for
freedom of the seas; finally, the ar
rival of American troops in France
and the departure of Mr.. Gerard for
the United States are thrown upon the
screen and arouse the keenest enthu-
Siasm.

Future Of Sheep Industry Bright.

1t is my opinion that the high time
Oh wool has not come. The lower
Shenandoah Valley of Virginia will al
ways be adapted to the raising of ear
ly lambs for the Spring market, hav-
ing only two hours run from Washing
ton, where there is an increasing
demand every season. On account of
the early season, cattle are much bet
ter to be disposed of from the silos
in the spring, and the roughage utaliz-
ed by the use of small stock cattle,
and sold to go to the higher attitudes
of Virginia, where there is always a
good market in the Spring.
From some cause, there seems to be
a disposition generally among the far
mers, to retire from the sheep business
Wool is something that cannot be done
without in the middle Wst and Atlant-
ic states. There will be only two
courses left. Eventually bounty will
have to be paid, or the grower will be
compelled to keep a certain number of
ewes for each hundred acres of land,
and the first proposition is the most
desirable. High cost of food and the
dog tax will eventually eliminate the
dog. C. F. WALL.

gust 21, % and %, matinee and night
each day at the Shepherdstown Opera
House. The British prisoners particu-
larly were made examples of fright
fulness.
Gerard, unknown to authorities, paid
flying visit to where thirty British
officers were confined in the city of
Cologne. Among them he found
Lieut.. Goschen, son of the former
British ambassador to Germany, he
who refused in the name of his gov
eminent to stand for the crushing of
France Young Boschen was badly
wounded. AS Gerard talked to him,
up carle an officer lamenting the fact
that Gerard had been admitted. "If
had Known, you would not have been
allowed to see these things" said the
officer.
In tVittsnberg prison camp the con-
ditions were always bad. Some civil
ians rad been imprisoned there and
one Of them, an Englishman, on hear
ing he had been released, dropped
dead with joy.
