UNDER FOUR FLAGS
AT TWO THEATRES
New Official War Pictures
Stir Audiences at RialtO
aNd RivOli.

Special interest will be taken at this
time in the new official war picture, I'm
der Four Flags which has just been
released by the Committee on Public In
formation and is being shown this week
at both the Rlalto and the Rivoli. The
films drew heavily yesterday in spite of
the rain and proved well worthy OF the
expectations that they had aroused.
Many OF the Incidents were inspiring
and called forth enthusiastic applause
for the unheeding shadows on the screen.
There were scenes showing the confer
ence at Versailles, the emba -kation OF
American troops, transports and their
conveys at sea, diversions of the men on
sh!pboard. manRuvres against subna-
rines. the advance OF the allied armies
and glimpses of famous backgrounds.
Among the most effective views were
those of battleships firing b-oadsides,
des;royers safeguarding the troopships,
columns of infantry on the march. the
soldiers and marines who turned the tide
at Chateau Thierry, and the ruins OF this
town and others like il. including La
Bassee ana Bapaume. which seemed 10
have been pulverized in a gigantic nor
tar

continuous din and hurly burly, and in
showing marine views the first COM
mandment of the exhibitor should be

custom nevertheless has been firmly es-
tablished for years, whenever a ship is
shown. OF rocking the camera violently
and making the horizon teeter through
an angle OF thirty-five or forty degrees
even when the ocean is as smooth as
glass.
Billie Burke found role well suited
to her in The Make-Believe Wife"
which is showing at the Strand, and :3e
flm is noteworthy for Its photography
and mountain scenery. Scenes around
Lake Placid in the Adirondacks supply
background for the principal incl
dents of the story, which was adapted
from a comedy by Edward Childs Car
penter The girl whom Miss Burke por-
trays loses he- way in the mountains
with young man. A heavy thunder
shower drives them TO cabin for a
nights shelter and next day the gossips
at the hotel think that the pair should
marry. They are engaged, but not to
each other, so the affair is rather an

GERMAN BOYCOTT PRESSED.
American Defence Society Makes
Appeal to Women a. Buyers.

The national boycott committee OF
the American Defence Society made pub

ton to buying the goods Of German
makers after the war. Much OF the re-
port had already been given TO the pub

THE only way to keep the world safe
from an unrepentant Germany" says
the report, lis to keep down her eco
nomic strength. Self-defence. therefore,
furnishes ample justification for the
boycott of Germany and Austria by the
allied nations, The most effective
method is the organization of the women
who do 80 per cent of the retail pur-
chasing. 1t is the consumer who makes
the ultimate decision as to whether or
not goods can be sold.
"If German goods cannot be marketed
in this country they will not he brought
here. American labor will be more pros
porous and the 100000 American SOL
diers soon to return to industrial life
will not be hunting for jobs while the
markets are flooded with cheap German
products!

DRIVE IN SECOND WEEK

THE SuN Tobacco Fund begins its
campaign for the balance OF the money
needed to send holiday smokes to Amer
lean soldiers abroad with an additional
contribution of $1,000.
For a period of seventy-four weeks,
which is the life OF the fund so far. the
books, open daily to readers of THE Sun
and THE EVENING SUN, show that the
sum contributed by these newspapers to
meet the expenses of the fund was
$4,000. These figures are now CHANGED
BY the additional gift.
1t is the sincere wish Of THE Sun To-
bacco Fund that no American soldier be
without the tobacco ne Graves. This has
been demonstrated daily by the unself-
ish work undertaken with the aid OF an
army OF generous donors. And the fund
enjoys deep pleasure on account of its
own success and deeper pleasure be-
cause OF the recognition by the soldiers
OF the value of its work.
The fund starts to-day on the second
week Of its drive for holiday emokes
confident that the money will be raised
In time to assure distribution to the

abroad smokes for the holidays There
are 100000 men "over there" many
OF whom will spend their Christmas and
New Years on the frontiers Of con-
Quered Germany. To these yictors THE
SUN Tobacco Fund offers its services as
Intermediary between donors OF money
for the holiday tobacco and themselves,
with the urgent appeal to donors to
DO II Now
Fund Follows the Boys.
The soldiers have never had a Doubt
that THE Sun Tobacco Fund would fol-
low them wherever duty took them. In
recent postcards they have expressed
quite frankly their confidence in their
friend" I'VE are content to stay here
as long as II is necessary" the soldiers
say, but don't forget that we can't
smoke Teuton tobacco any better than
we could get away with English or
French"
1t is hoped. therefore. that the drive
this week will be more successful than
last week, which averaged nearly 81 900
a day. The daily average should be
$4,000 or even $1,000. Contributions of
any amount. large or small, should be
made without delay
The Silver Society, which gave the
funo all the gate receipts from it's show
last winter. will receive to-day several
cards from soldiers. A characteristic
one was written by II. A. Knox of the
Thirty-eighth Field Artillery, who says !:

you Tor the cigarettes received. but II

Capt. Greenhut played remarkable
part in the history OF his adopted coun-
try, and in the mercantile history of
New York. After the lapse OF nifty
years he was cited for bravery in tho
Battle OF Gettysburg. where he dlstin-
gulshed himself by leading seventy-five

letter of commendation, citing him
for bravery
