"Oyer the Ton"

Sergeant Arthur Guy Empey, vet
eran of the Somme and author of the
most famous war book "Over the Top, +"
is coming to Philadelphia the week of
May 9Th. Manager Fred G.. Nixon
Nirdlinger announces that he has
booked the Vitagraph super-feature.
"Oyer the Top which was made from
Empey's book, and the sergeant will
be seen as the star of the production at
the Academy of Music during the
week of May 9Th, afternoon and night.
This is probably the most important
news which has come to motion pic
ture fans in an age, because they have
all heard OF Empey and want to see
him. According to the advance in
formation, Empey will appear on the
screen with all of the magnetism that
has made him one of the most notable
personalities developed by the war.
Albert E. Smith, president Of the Vita.
graph company, has pronounced him
one of the greatest natural actors he
ever saw, and he also says that Empey
has been permitted to rs-enact on the
screen the thrilling moments he ex
perisnced during the eighteen month:
| he fought the Germans in France
Empey is said to have gone into
motion pictures reluctantly and only
after he had been convinced that

While the friends of local option
were somewhat downcast over the re-
suit in Lumberton township where the
proposition was turned down by q
small vote, there was a corresponding
feeling of Joy when it was announced
that the "drys'' had been successful at
Moorestown. In both instances there
was very severe contest. In Lum-
berton many questions beside those of
liquor or no liquor were injected into
the campaign and personal animosity
was allowed to control some who real
y at heart wanted to see the hotel
eliminated. In Moorestown the fight
was strictly on the point of license or
no license" A few days prior to the
election it was feared that the lower
end of the township would be against
the dry proposition and that the voters
from that section would outnumber
those in the eastern end. But the
friends of mo license" sensing the
danger, got to work with a will and
they carried their point. The result
was not altogether expected, as there
has not been any cause for complaint
about the way in which the Moores-
town hotel has been conducted by
Edward Halleran, but the contest was
conducted on the part of the advocates
of local option on principle entirely.

Random Remarks

In the present crisis of our country.
when nearly everyone thinks Of patriot
ism first, last and all the time. when
our Government is negotiating Liberty
Loans to successfully conduct the war.
IL would seem that some of the labor
unions are not working entirely along
1ne same lines. Not long ago on
Tram coming from Camp Dix, there
was labor man on the car apparently
under the influence of liquor. but
nevertheless a representative of local
TABOR union, who threatened to keen
another man from going to work the
following week if he did not Join the
union Is this patriotism? When our
country is at war with one of the most
terrible Of nations, when we are in
feverish haste to construct and main-
tam our environments for the prepara
ton OF our boys who may in the near
future sacrifice their lives for our liber-
ty, this man practically tried to forbid
another from pursuing his part in our
war preparations, because he does not
belong to union. Probably this man
has family to support and is not in |
position to pay an initiation fee of |
from $40 to $25 and the necessary dues, |
II such is the case he Will seek work
elsewhere. Is this obstruction to our
war preparations, or is it patriotism?
