At The Republic Tonight.

The entire equipment of a WOODEN
knitting factory was transferred to
the Metro studios in New York, dur
ing the production of THE Eternal
Mother" the Metro wonderfully star
ring Ethel Barrymore, which will be
shown at the Republic tonight.
Children are shown at work in
these scenes, illustrating conditions
in some parts of the country. Little
Felice. the daughter of the heroine, is
seen with the other little workers.
They operate the knitting machines,
looms and bobbins, while a brutal
overseer keeps them steadily at their
work
Just before lunch time, Felice starts
to eat a piece of bacon, and one of
the hungry children tries to snatch
it. The two children struggle and
Felice falls against the belt that runs
from a motor to the machinery. The
machinery is stopped and the little
unfortunate cared for. Then comes
help from "the beautiful lady who
lives on the hill" The entire factory
atmosphere is genuine and a foreman
from a Brooklyn knitting plant su-
pervised the erection of the machin-
cry. Frank Reicher directed the
scenes in this absorbing photodrama.

NO EGG-ROLLING

Custom Abandoned Because Of
Food Conservation. 1t
Would Help Huns.

The long-established custom of Civ
ing presents at Easter and the egg
rolling celebrations on Easter Monday
are to be removed from Washington

MODERN RIFLES AND eAYoNETs
USELESS.

Captain R. Hugh Knyvett makes
some valuable suggestions as to the
right infantry weapons in his book.
he says:
81 know scores of men who have
been months in the trenches and over
the top IN several attacks who have
never fired a shot out OF their rifles.
A much more serviceable gun to repei
a counter attack would be one firing
buckshot Hike a pump gun. The bull
lets from our hiSh-velocity rifles IRE
qsentiy pass through the body of a
man at close range and he is not even
conscious of having been nit and con
tinues to come on with as great fury
as before.
In an actual charge our Present
rifle is more than usefess-it is an en-
cumbrance-an when at grips with
the enemy in his own trenches it is
often 4 fatal handicap. With bay
onet on the end of it, it is far too long,
and in a trench two or four feet wide
it cannot be used with much effect /
have known our men repeatedly to IN
ship the bayonet and take 1t in their
hands, throwing the rifle away.
1T should be remembered, too, how
closely we are in an attack to our own
barrage and it is impossible to see to
fire through it. The system or barrags
fighting that we now use has made
warfare as much a hand-tohand bust
ness as it was in oiden times and We

Infantry should be armed with q
hand bayonet, as there rs no adyaut-
age whatever in the long reach Chat
cur present rifle and bayonet gives
AS matter of fact, many Of our men
have been killed through driving their
bayonet too far into the body OF their
opponent not being able to draw It
out, thus being helpless when attacked
by another of the enemy.
Il have used a hand hayonet invent
ed by Captain Faflon, an Australian,
which sticks out from the fist Hike a
knnckle buster and is about six inches
long. The shock of the blow is taken

plate running down it on which to re-
ceive the thrust Of ones opponent
This is the natural weapon for the
AngloISaxon as the fist and arm is
used exactly as IN boxing II a Ger
man comes at you with a bayonet il
is the natural and easy thing to throw
up your arm and ward il off The iron
plate saves your arm being cut; you
are in under his guard; seize his rifle
with your left hand and punch with
your right, driving the knife home the
six inches, which is all that is neces-

thing for him to forget them.

checking, the postofffce will prepare
the bills to be sent the various pub
locations. They viii be based on the
new rates, including the ascending
scale for the eight zones governing all
advertising matter: This scale begins
with rate of IL cents a pound for
the first zone and rises by zones until
the charge is 314 cents a pound for
the eighth zone.
At the Chicago postofffce 1t is said
that a large number of additional en-
playes will be needed for the increase
of WORK entailed by the law, and there
is considerable question concerning
the extent to which this Increased ex-
pense win eat into the added revenue.
One provision of the law is that pub
locations mailed directly to American
soldiers abroad-not sent under the
special ruling made for the remailing
of magazines by individuals-will be
billed under the rate for the eighth
zone and not charged for at foreign
postage rates.
In anticipation of the heavy in
crease in expense due to the new
rates, numerous farm periodicals have
already suspended or been absorbed
by other stronger papers. Protests
from magazines, trade papers, and
newspapers, made to Washington,
proved of no avail toward modifying
the new rates

attorney General II. M. Havner's
oninion that political conventions may
moi fill ticket vacancies for the gen.
oral election was disregarded when
Democratic delegates of the county
mel in Fort Madison Saturday. The
marty men named four candidates in
Instances where no names appeared
ON the primary ballots.
Republicans of the county named
mo candidates to fill vacancies.
The two conventions took place
concurrenuy
Members of the democratic nomi-
mating committee said that they be-
Ilieyed the matter of naming candi-
dates to fill ticket vacancies was still
an omen question. John P. Hornish,
member of the committee, said today:
Why Opinion Is Ignored.
"The convention had a certificate
from the county auditor to the effect
tha there were four vacancies on the
ticket. The law says that where a
man is voted for in the primaries.
even IL his name is written in on the
ticket, the convention may make nomi-
nations. Mr.. Havner's opinion was
based on the Haywood case, where
there was an unexpired term and the
central committee had made an ap-
pointment to fill It."
Mr.. Hornish said that the entire
report of the nominating committee
was ignored after it had been brought
| in and that the convention then pro
| ceeded to nominate candidates itself.
Name Four Candidates.
The candidates for the four offices
finally determined upon were:
W. c. Young, of Fort Madison, for
clerk of the district court.
Fred Mayhem, Keokuk, for sheriff.
Casper Mohrfeld, of Fort Madison,
for recorder.
George Lohmann, OF Fort Madison,
| for coroner.
The committee to select candidates
was composed OF Frank DietZ, John
P. Hornish, l.. S. Harrington, l.. H.
Fisher, c. w. Storms, NJ. ]. Collins,
james Vermazen, w. B. Schultz and
A. e. Dick.
Republicans Patriotic.
patriotic note dominated the
county republican convention. The
convention gave APPROVAL to the war
aims of the federal government and
decided to support all movements
that will look toward a successful
prosecution of the war.
A resolution to give fullest support
to Congressman c. A. Kennedy in his
candidacy for that office was adopted.
George w. Mattern, chairman of
the county central committee, called
the convention to order. j. p. Ken
nedy of Montrose, was elected chair
man of the convention and o. r.
Johnston secretary.
