We are in receipt of the following
interesting item from former local
resident, now living at Butte, Mont,
regarding Mr.. and Mrs. j. w. Scott
of that place. The article appeared
in the Butte, Mont, Standard Of Aug.
20. Mr.. and Mrs. Scott are both
known to number of people in this
city and vicinity:
"Take all thou hast and give to the
government" is the paraphrase of the
biblical instruction which the United
States has been directing the people
of the nation to obey in some degree,
but the literal Interpretation has
been placed on the command and the
instruction carried out to the letter
by Mr.. and Mrs. j. w, Scott of 2506
South Main street, who have offered
their all to the government.
They have both offered their ser
vices to the United States government
as nurses and soon they intend to sell
all their property, buy government
bonds and leave for France whenever
the call comes.
I'VE are alone in the world, and
feel that it is the only thing for US
to do" said Mrs. Scott. I'VE both
have had experience as nurses and de-
sire to give our experience to the ma
ton. We will sell all our property
about the city and we have consider
able, buy bonds and 60 wherever and
whenever wanted. Our only fear il
that we will be refused. for we are
both slightly over age"
Mr.. Scott Is assayer at the Clark
mill, where he has been for more than
15 years. Both he and Mrs. Scott
have had aeveral vearas practice in
nursing IN the east and for two years
cations have not been beaSd from r YET

Calloused New York; hardened New York: blase New York. used to thrilling pohtoplays and spectacles, done to death with the ordinary pro- duction. packed the Broadway theatre to stifiing breathing space and cheered like mad. Long before the hour set for opening, lines of people blocked traffic to wedge their way into the theatre Nothing Broadway has seen in years reused the populace to such pitch of white head. And Boston folks repeated what was done in New York when 's@The Kaiser, The Beast of Berlin" was presented.
 It is the picture that will make Americas blood boil with rage. Then we will all fight like true Americans. Everyone should sec The Kaiser, The Beast of Berlin, Neven if he has to go without eating to do it.
 The Kaiser. The Beast of Berlin has proven all that it's press notices claim ed it would be and even more. Ger tainly no picture that has ever been shown in this city has so excited the audiences that they become stamping mad and growl at the kaiser on the screen in much the same manner that they would if he were actually there ip person. America needs a picture of this sort to arouse the people to a realization of the kind of an enemy we are fighting and it's showing at the Auditorium theatre should result in the making of new armies of deter mined fighters who will make any sacrifice necessary to rid the earth ot this diabolical murderer of women and children.

BREED THEATRE
Banner Bill for Today and Tuesday, Vivian Martin in The Trouble Bus- ter, and the Fourth Episode of The Eagie's Eye, Entitled Won RinteIen, The Destroyer, Features.

Today and Tuesday winsome Vivian Martin will be seen at the Breed thea tre in her latest Paramount picture, The Trouble Buster. Miss Martin is known as Miss Merry because of the unlimited supply of good cheer which she invariably carries concealed on her small person. The Trouble Bus- ter, which was written for Miss Mar tin by Tom Forman, brings out every bit of fun and lovableness of which she is capable and proves that its name was well chosen, for it is guar a1teed to dispell any lingering glooms besides telling very dramatic story Of very real life. The fourth episode of The Eagles Eye will also be shown. This chapter is entitled Von Rintelen, the Destroyer. and shows how Franz Non Rintelen. a special representative of the kaiser, spends enormous sums Of money cn depredations and vio- lence that the allies migh. be thwart- cd through America. Almost with the very moment of his arrival he begins his activities, assembling gangs of river pirates to destroy shipments of goods across the Atlantic, and per forms other malicious acts under the neutral flag Of the Stars and Stripes. The latest news in the Hearst-Pathe Weekly completes the bill for today and Tuesday.

Its incidents having distinct heart appeal, The Lie, the latest Aircraft picture starring Elsie Ferguson, will be shown at the Davis theatre today. The picture, based upon the play of the same name by Henry Arthur Jones, is in every respect a remark able production and much interest is being manifested in the forthcoming display by Manager Craig's clientele.
 The story deals with the lives of two sisters, one of whom makes a mo- tle sacrifice for the other, each pre- senting psychological studies of value. There is not dull moment in the picture which must be seen to be ap- preciated.
 As the elder of two sisters, the daughters of a dissipated Englishman, Miss Ferguson deliberately sacrifices the love of her sweetheart to save an erring sister from the shameful con- sequences of her fault. To the end that the honor of her family may not be tarnished she foregoes her happi- ness and permits her sister to wed the man she herself loves, and then cares for the latter's child as if it were her own. Eventually, however, she finds happiness in the love of q worthy man
 The other feature on this bill is Roy Stewart in the f1ve-part Triangle pro- duction entitled Laws Outlaw. This is corling good western drama. Ar extra feature on this bill will be the first pictures of the big Liberty loan parade in Boston, and a screaming short comedy with Dough- Fairbanks will complete the programme.
