DAVIS THEATRE,

Pershings Crusaders, the first United States official war film, was presented by the committee. on public informa tion, George Greet chairman, at the Davis theatre Thursday. This is real ly pictorial history of Americas part in the great war, living history, full of human interest and patriotic thrills It should be seen by every American who has given his boy or bought a bond, and it should particularly be seen by those who have not yet mas tered the lesson of Americanism. Over here and over there our boys in khaki are seen in training and in action. Cantonments spring ito being as by magic, boys fresh from farms, desk and factory are4hardened into fighting WhirlWinds, massive ships are launch ed, aeropianes speed through the air, unifroms are turned out by the mil inon, in fact, all of the activities of war preparations are spread before your eyes
 In the last half of the film you are transported to France and see just what has been accomplished since the Stars and Stripes were carried over there. Secretary of War Baker and Generol John J. Pershing are seen on their tours of inspection to the battle front and around the big bases at un- known ports. You can see for your self that your boys are hard as nails, happy, well fed and well clothed. Watch them on the march with springy step and then you will know that they ore ready for the Boches.
 Fatty Arbuckle in The Other Man is a. comedy film with a laugh in every scene. A Current Events filb con- cludes the bill.
