cruelty neglected every day at

Leon Enrol
Who staged the revue
Had his own troubles before the show
opened,
For not only did Mr.. Hitchcock forget
to provide a singer for an important
role
But his duties as producer kept Erred
so busy
That be- overlooked the fact he was
featured on the programme and ne
elected to give himself anything To
do until the opening night
Then he improvised the amusing
kitchen scene M
Without a rehearsal
And cut open an artery in his writ
with broken crockery and had to APP
peal to the audience for stray Sur-
geon to sew it up again.
Another annoyance that night
Was the non-arrival Of the chorus
girls slippers.
The girls had to wear their strsss
boots with pink and white satin
costumes which put them out Of
temper and tempo
And all because the box went by mis-
take to Mr.. Hitchcock's Office
A place he has visited but once
In all his life.
On the whole the path Of producer
is q rough one.
AS Hitchy says, TITS better 10 owe
Than to own"

A Pie IL, Both Ewes
Raymond Hitchcock Had to Abandon
Art and Adopt This NesU Slogan in
Order to Please faded Populace
By Solita solano

All the ideas Raymond Hitchcock used
to have
About the "show business"
Have been replaced by others that are
entirely different.
He once thought that love for art
intelligence and a desire to make
the wheels go round
Were distributed through every audi
ence
That came to see him in musical plays
slightly clouded by traces Of plot
His new slogan
Has little to do with art.
In fact it is scarcely appropriate
For fireside reading.
He also believes that if actors throw
pies at each other the audience is
more edited than if it saw Hamlet
brooding over the skull Of Yorick OF
John Barrymore beating at the bars
Of "Justice."
"a pie in both eyes is what they like"
quoth Hitchy the other evening,
Not so much in bitterness as
Resignation.
Yes, the public's taste has changed
Even as Mr.. Hitchcock maintains
So that it no longer wants to know
who ruined the girl and burned the
papers.
In fact, ruined girls
Don't seem to get the attention thew
once did and are thus rendered unfit
For further dramatic purposes.
No longer can the old father seize the
prodigal by her shoulders as she
enters the door,
Exclaiming in hoarse voice,
Can you still look me in the facet"
Nowadays he would merely reproach
her with, "Gal, why didn't yer send
your old pappy some Of them there
colored picture postcards from New
York;"
And surely there's no drama
In that.
The elimination of chorus men is &C.
cupying Mr.. Hitchcock's attention
And in his future shows
There are to be tall, thin girls dressed
In the garments that are generally
accredited to the more masculine sex.
As starter he 10 using two in "Hitchy
Koo 1918"
Averring that one can't tell the diff
ference
Anyway
And that no man Of fighting age can
stay in his show
If he works for nothing.
The new revue at the Globe turned out
to be just the sort of show Mr..
Hitchcock planned.
1t is ultra ephemeral
And contains nothing that would tax
the mind of professional dancing

restaurants for those wiyaa who ara

There are some born abroad who
have come to this land for q greater
freedom and broader opportunities and
have sought and received the priyi
leges of American citizenship who are
swayed by dislike for some ally or by
the sympathics of German kinship and
fail to see that the time has come for
them to make good the obligations Of
their sworn oaths of naturalization.
This is the oath that the applicant
for citizenship makes:
That he will support the Constitu-
tion OF the United States and that he
absolutely and entirely renounces all
allegiance and fidelity to any foreign
prince, potentate or sovereignty; that
he will support and defend the Consti-
tuition and laws Of the United States
against all enemies, foreign and do
nestle, and bear true faith and ale
glance to the same
"False to Their oaths."
Ali these naturaliZed citizens who
are taking part In obstruction to our
government in the conduct Of the war
are false to their oaths, are forfeiting
their rights OF citizenship, are repudi-
ating their honorable obligations, are
requiting by evil the good that has
been done them in the generous and
unstinted hospitality with which the
people of the United States have well
coined them to the liberty and the op-
portunities Of this free land. We must
believe that in many cases this is done
because of failure to understand what
this war really is.
This Is A war OF defense. 1t is per
fectly described in the words Of the
Constitution which established this ma
lion, "To provide for the common de-
fense" and "To secure the blessings Of
liberty to ourselves and our posterity."
The national defense demands not
merely force, but intelligence. 1t re-
quires foresight consideration of the
policies and purposes Of other nations,
understanding Of the inevitable or
probable consequence Of the acts Of
other nations, judgment as to the time
when successful defense may be made,
and when 1t will be too late, and prompt
action before IL is too late.
BY entering this war the United
States availed itself Of the very last
opportunity to defend itself.

League Throughout Country
During Coming Summer.

Teachers Plattsburgs," at which
3oO,OOO public school teachers will be
given practical training In patriotic
education. will be held during the COM
Ing summer in practically every state
In the Union by the National Security
League. The scheme Of this elaborate
new division Of the Leagues Patriot
ism Through Education campaign is
conceived on the same basic idea along
which the League has been working
FOR some time, concentrating on the
teachers Of the youth Of the land and
thereby reaching the children through
the teachers and the people through
their children.
The objects OF the Leagues cam
paign are twO-fold-active combating
OF German propaganda and awaken
ing a more responsible American citi-
Zenship.
At Summer Schools.
The Security League will conduct
these Teachers Plattsburgs" through
the medium of the summer schools for
teachers that are held throughout the
country every year. 1t has not vet
been determined how many centers
VIII be used. The matter is being
taken up with all of the 700 summer
schools OF the country and probably
between 80 and rs of the training
camps will be established. the schools
selected being chosen after careful in
Vestigation as to attendance, breadth
OF influence and convenience of loca-
ton.
The training camps will be conduct
ed by leading educators whose cooper
alton will be enlisted by the League
The actual instruction will be under
the direction of DR.. Robert NJ. Neil
roy, educational director of the
League, and the members of the "Na-
tlonal Patriotic Education Faculty"
which he has organized. The League
already has over 1000 experienced pa
triotic speakers on its Speakers Bu-
reau list. A great many of these men
and women will be detailed to the
"TeaC hers Pattsburgs" and their
number will be augmented by volun-
teers from the principal colleges and
universities Of the country, whose aca-
demic duties have prevented them
from taking active part in the patri-
otic education work outside their i'm
mediate field. but who will be free
during the summer months.
War Spirit
The teachers will be given series
OF vital interpretations of the war by
men and women who have given care
full study to the situation. In addition
to this instilling Of the war spirit in
the teachers. the training camps will
also afford them practical instruction
In the best methods of imparting to
the youth Of the land the two war
principles on which the Security
Leagues Patriotism Through Educa-
tion campaign is based-the menace of
Germany to America, and the peces-
sity of individual service on the Fart
