u. S. Army Mule Typical Of Our Fight
ers in France.

The United States is sending so
many thousands of army motor trucks
to France that one might think the
army mule was thing of the past,
but that's a mistake.
A few glimpses at the vivid scenes
taken at the American front as they
will appear in "PERSHINGS CRU
SADERS," the great war feature film
presented by the Committee on Public
Information, Division of Films, show
ing at the ISIS today and tomorrow the
army mule is just as rampant as ever.
His long ears and benign expression
are at the front wherever food or hells
are needed by our busy boys in the
trenches And he is just as uncon-
querable as ever as one scene VIII
prove In this scene one sturdy bray
artist has apparently been misinform-
ed and thinks he is being ridden by
German. He gives very good imita-
ton of a trench mortar to the delight
of the bystanders. The victim of mulish
frightfulness is not so delighted.
recent army order forbade a team
ster to speak profanely to his team.
even IL he feels 1t necessary. Perhaps
that explains the army mule In France
looking so fat and sassy-at least on
the screen.

Excellent Numbers Attract Fai,
Crowds and Please immensely
Gunner Johnson Il Feature

Fair crowds were attracted by the
Cadmean Chautauqua this week and
every program given by the enter
tanners proved of high quality. The
sale of season tickets will hardly pay
the contract price, although the com
mittee from the chamber of com
merce, under whose auspices the
Chautauqua came to Pullman,
worked faithfully in an effort to in
sure the financial success of the un-
dertaking.
The big feature of the week. in the
opinion of most of the Pullman peo-
pie who attended the various enter
tainments, was the appearance on
Wednesday evening of Gunner
Johnson, a member of the Canadian
eXpeditionary forces, recently in
valided home to recover from a Sc
we're bayonet wound. Gunner
Johnson is far from an orator, but
his straightforward. vivid narrative
Of his trying experiences in the fight
to retain Ypres held the closest at
tention of the big audience for nearly
two hours. The speaker paid high
tribute to the American boys who
crossed the border to become mem
bers of the Canadian contingent prior
to Uncle Sans entrance into the big
war He outlined the conditions
under which the Canadian bulldogs"
fought to save the important point
from the German invaders. telling of
the great superiority Of the Germans
in numbers. guns and ammunition
and OF the determination and aggres-
siycness of the Canadian troops
which moro than balanced the ad-
yantages held by the Germans and
saved Ypres from Hun invasion.
The American soldiers. he said
will not face the hardships and pri-
yations that fell to the lot of the Ca

every respect. but probably will be
forced into some of the hand-to-hand
fighting that featured the battles of
Ypres, a class of fighting in which
the allies have proved vastly superior
to their foe.
Gunner" Johnson brought mes
sage direct from the battle front that
touched the heart of every hearer
and made him a better American, de-
termined to go the limit to assist in
wiping the fiendish Hun from the
face of the earth. He dealt with
stern realities, citing conditions as
they actually exist and have previous
ly existed. Optimistic, sure of the
final outcome, yet not oyer-confident
and admitting that the war is prob
ably a long way from won, he
aroused that feeling of determine
ton, of extreme hatred for the Ger
man. that can not but result in great
good to the community and the
country.

gave sound advice to the young men
who are yet to get into the thick of
the fray. He urged proficiency with
the bayonet as one of the most yalu-
able assets with which new soldier
could enter the battle line.
Another highly pleasing number
was the appearance on the first even
ing Of the Chautauqua of S. Platt
Jones, Yankee humorist, whose
clever representations, humorous
stories and grotesque illustrations
Kept the audience in an uproar. His
representations of the English Chap
pie boy. the dispep-ic pessimlst and
the Civil war veteran were especially
pleasing. The Ruth Runner Concert
company, which appeared the first
day, is a first class organization of
young lady musicians and entertain
ers.
Count John Sobieski. leading at
traction on the second days program,
drew a big crowd, but many of his
hearers were, to some extent, disap-
pointed. Sobieski is unquestionably
a 33d degree American, loyal, patri-
otto and learned, whose optimism
concerning the great war knows no
bounds, but many of his statements
indicated oyerconfidence and over
optimism. He predicted that the war
will be over by September and that
the Kaiser will "be in hell by Janu-
airy l. We all pray that his pre-
diction may come true, and possibly
1t will, but our plans, war plans and
home plans. should not be based on
that belief. much as we hope for It's
verification. Count Sobieski dealt
at some length with the causes that
led up to the great war. taking his
hearers back to the eighteenth cen
fury. His remarks showed a keen in
sight into the European conditions of
the past and present. and his address
was highly educational
Count Sobieski is rs years of age
and has been on the lecture platform
for so years. In his early life he
was exiled from Poland and sought
the freedom of America, becoming
an American citizen at the first OPP
portunity. He fought through the
Civil war and saw many years of
service as a member of the standing
army.

Bundle Grain

The establishment of the 10-hour
day with the payment of overtime,
marks an innovation in Palouse coun-
try harvesting, and is expected to
meet with the approval and work to
the benefit of both employers and
employees. While the wags scale
adopted is slightly, If any, higher
than that of last year by the day, the
harvest hand who works as many
hours this year as last will receive
considerably more money for his la
Dor. If harvest help is scare it Is
expected that many threshermen will
work their crews at least IL hours,
and for the added two hours the la
borer viii receive the equivalent of
three hours pay, aside from the
stipulated daily wage. Thus, la
borer whose daily wage Is S4 will re-
ceiye $500 If he is worked 2 hours,
before shutting down for the night.
Harvest operations have already
started in the Walla Walla valley,
where the season Is several weeks in
advance Of the eastern part of Whit
man county, and many laborers have
left Pullman to take advantage of
the work offered there, expecting to
work this way as the season adj
yances. Reports from Walla Walla
are that the crop will not exceed half
a normal output, while all indica-
lions here are that the yield will fall
considerably below that of last year,
which was under normal.

Germs his own candidacy, during his
visit to Pullman Monday. DR.. Sum-
mers came to Pullman following a
trip that included many Whitman
county towns, and says that he was
accorded most friendly reception
at each town visited. My friends, "
he said, ARE highly pleased so far
as the congressional situation is con
cerned, and my visit in La Toilette
own county has convinced me that
his chances of being returned to the
national house are negligible"
The congressional aspirant met
many of the republican voters of
Pullman and vicinity and apparently
made favorable impression.
Il believe in the most vigorous
prosecution of the war" said Mr..
Summers America will save nc
men or money by going into the war
slowly. The sooner we put 5000
