service for unfitness. Sullivan knew that home was the best place in which to recuperate, and as fast as travel made possible he came to Phoenix.
 Failing acceptance in the American army because of his age, Sullivan en- listed with the Royal Engineers in No vember. He was in action in France during the March offensive, and his one regret is that he could not stay to see the finish, which he believes is not yet. He doubts the sincerity of the peace offers, the worth of the German word, and looks for an invasion of Germany before the victorious end.
 Sullivan was gassed when he gave his mask to a comrade worse off than himself. By his side fought an Aus trian who had his leg broken by a shell. His helmet, too, had been torn, and Sullivan gave his own to the wounded man. I'm done. You carry on," the soldier pleaded, but Sullivan insisted in doing last act for the man who did not live to again thank him for his deed.
 After being gassed, the Arizonan was taken to a French hospital, where for

News Notes From
 MOvieland
BY DAISY DEAN

Marguerite Marsh, the pretty sister of Mae Marsh, has a new job on her hands. She is busy with the Houdini serial and in addition to her other work she has to make up Houdini every time he faces the camera in the Rolfe serial in which he is perpetuating bis famous tricks.
 Said Marguerite the other evening: No days off in sight for me. l didn't work yesterday, but I had to go out to the studio and make up Houdini. His wife made him up for his stage appearances for many years. But to make him up for the screen would mean leaving New York about a. m. in~the morning, and so she is giving me her lifelong job. If I didn't like them both so well I might say good-by to the moon-but as it is.

LET NOTHING

Sickness Should Be No Excuse
For Buying Liberty Loan
Bonds
S UB CRIB E AT ONCE

In spite of the fact that the good
news from the fighting fronts makes
the need of subscribing to the Fourth
Liberty Loan all the greater. instead
of less, it is undoubtedly helping to
make subscriptions fewer than they
ought to be. Subscriptions are far
below the total they shonld have
reached by now. and part of this is
due to the idea that peace is near and
the need FOR subscribing gone.
Here in Annapolis, however. the
epidemic OF flu is doing more than in
difference to interfere with the loan
campaign. Many of the meetings
have had 70 be called off, and the re-
suits from them have been lost A
large proportion of the workers. TOO,
are either Ill themselves with the flu
and unable to work, or they are pre-
vented from doing so by illness in
their families. II has hi; d.ieren, dis

Under these circumstances, the
amount so far secured here is very
creditable. but there is greater need
for subscriptions from those who are
able to make them, and it is to be
hoped that every one who can possi-
bly do so will get a subscription in
at once.
