ted line and the statement that before
doing so he would stay in Germany UNI
til hell freezes over" supplies one of the
exciting incidents of the evening.
Step by step, it takes one through Am,
bassador Gerard's career in Germany, be-
ginning with Hhe famous Zabern inci4
dent and ending with Americas declarae
tion of war against the imperial German
government. Fiction is never resorteo
to, but the facts are enough to damn the
imperial government.
Those who have read the book will find
that the main incidents of the story Of
the intrigue and German perfdy shown
with life-like detail. The chief charac.
tiers in this great world drama are drawn
with truth, and the story is held togeth.
err with fine touches of art Of picture
making There are shown numerous au-
diences with the kaiser and real Ger
man buster is seen in the war lords
threat to the ambassador that "After
this war Germany will stand for no nom
sense from the United States" There
is also pictured the Teutonic boast that
America won't fght-a boast that has
been made childish by the present APP
pearance of hundreds Of thousands Of
American soldiers in France. Other facts
that are shown include Germany's treat
ment of prisoners of war, the effort to
bottle up the British feet, which was
frustrated through information furnished
by Mr.. Gerard; the brutality of the Ger
mans toward the women and children Of
Belgium and northern France, and the
attitude of the German people toward
their government. At no time is it nee.
essary to resort to fiction to bring out
the German character and TO show the
effort of the kaiser to dominate the
world. The picture undoubtedly will
have great influence upon all those who
see it, and should be great factor in
stirring up the people of Barre to look
our war conditions squarely in the face
They will have chance to see pictured
many things that do not greatly impress
when seen merely on the printed page,

The Truth About the War.

Ambassador James W. Gerard's my
-Four Years in Germany" will have its
first and only Barre presentation COM
mencing tomorrow afternoon for three
days at the Bijou theatre. The photo
play which was made and produced I'M
der the personal censorship of Ambassa-
dor Gerard, will reveal the real truth
about the war and show why our boys
are over there and will stay there until
the last man, if necessary.
1t loses no opportunity to impress the
spectator with the supposition that the
Sarajevo incident was not accidental, but
coolly and carefully planned by the Ger
man emperor and his advisors.
Two Of the many interesting scenes of
the picture are Mr.. Gerard's visit to the
prisoners camp at Wittenberg and that
in which he is given his passports. The
German government, it will be recalled,
at first refused to supply Mr.. Gerard and
his official family with passports until
he had signed an agreement whereby
America would promise to release Ger
man boats interned at American piers.

BRIGHTON MARKET STEADY.
Stockyards Show Little Change in Prices
from Those Reported a Week Ago.

Brighton, Mass, Aug. 2s.--Not much
change was noted in livestock prices at
the Brighton stockyards yesterday
morning from those quoted week ago,
except in coarse calves. Hogs were un-
changed and fancy calves were selling
at recent top prices.
Fancy beef cattle showed considerable
strength, with buyers looking for some
thing good enough to bring l5@l6 cents.
Most Of the arrivals were about aver
age For such the quotation is l2@l3
cents. Good cattle are l0@l2 cents, and
light cattle at SOLO cents.
Really fancy cows were scarce, and
anything that would bring over II cents
was in demand An occasional fat beef
COW or heifer fetched 1908 cents and
even more, but the bulk of the aver
age tops sold at l0@ll cents. Good
COWS were sac cents ordinary cows, Ga
cents, and Gamer cows 51aG5% cents,
Fancy beef bulls brought around l0@ll
cents, but prices were held in the main
at about the figures recently quoted
Average bulls were sold at sac cents,
and bologna bulls at col cents.
Fancy calves were very strong, small
lots of stock selling at II cents or a
fraction better, bunch lots at l6@l6h
cents, and fair lots at l4Ml5 cents. The
above grades are rather scarce, but free
arrivals Of coarse calves and graSsers
from New York state have taken the
edge off the market. Prices have dropped
to Soil cents.
Sheep and lambs are offered moder-
ately. Best lambs are selling at around
l5@I7 cents and sheep at 9@l2 cents.
Best lots of live hogs were selling at
the yards at 10000 cents. Rough lots
were 1000 cents. The hot weather
has reduced materially the demand for
both fresh cuts of pork. The local pack
ers have been obliged to curtail oper-
ations, owing to the high cost of live
hogs.
No further change is seen in the price
of dressed hogs. The Boston packers
still quote 241a@25 cents. This com
pares with the high record of 1917, 241s
cents, made in the week of Aug Is.
There is steady demand for mich
cows, without much change in quota
lions from week to week. Ordinary
mixers are selling at around S60@S75.
From this level up to $3.50 or better is
obtained, according to quality and pedi-
gree, for fancy mixers.
