fore America entered the war. for the
use Of the British wounded; others es-

commodation of both British and

Divine Descent.

The incongruity Of the Bible with
the age of its birth: its freedom from
earthly mixtures; its original, unbor-
rowed, solitary greatness; the sudden
ness with which it broke forth amidst
the general gloom; these to me are
strong indications Of its divine de-
scent; cannot reconcile them with a
human origin Charming.

internationally famous as the
worlds greatest exponent of the cine
ma art, David W. Griffith is the crea-
tor of the screens most remarkable
triumphs. Mr.. Griffith spent many
months in England and France dur
ing the past year and on his return to
this country, he produced Hearts of
the World which was presented with
enormous success in New York. His
latest offering which deals with the
great social transformation effected in
England by the war is "The Great
Love- and this will be presented at
the Colonial Saturday, matinee and
evening.
When THE Birth of Nation" was
released it created the greatest sensa-
tiop and carried the name of David
w. Griffith, its producer, into the
homes of the people of many nations.
It's success was in keeping with its
great merit. Following this triumph
came Intolerance" another spectacle
exceeding in magnitude anything ever
staged. His latest triumph "The
Great Love" is even a more remark
able production in every respect, as
the theme being that of the present
day, will hold the greatest interest for

AT THE REPUBLIC TOMORROW

Jewel Carmen, who has gained a
big name for herself as a William
Fox star, will be seen tomorrow at
the Republic Theatre. in "Lawless
Love-" a story of terrific action. The
story begins with the stranding of a
theatrical company, the principals of
which are La Belle Geraldine Jewel
Carmen) and her dancing partner,
whose splendid Broadway clothes
cover a fine yellow streak. This dan
Ger is in love with Geraldine, and
when she proposes to win reward
of $4,000 through the dancers inn
personation of Black Jim, bandit,
he hesitatingly assents.
Geraldine's plan is to ''get" the
supposed bandit, obtain the reward,
hurry away and then have the dancer
tell the authorities that it was only
a joke, and that he is not the bandit
at all. The plan fails because Black
Jim himself captures both Geraldine
and the dancer, and takes them to his
secret cabin in the mountains. The
dancers cowardice puts him in a
bad light, while Black Jim shows a
fine manly streak. In the end the
latter turns gentleman and makes a
strong bid for Geraldine, who has
come to admire his manly character.

BLUE TRIANGLE THE
INSIGNIA OF Y. w. c. A.

The Blue Triangle has ventured
into the first line trenches almost
into No Mans Land.
Two Y. w. c. A. secretaries were
recently invited as official guests of
the French Ministry of the Interior
to visit the front line trenches, a
special concession granted in appre-
citation for their work in foyer" or
clubhouse at a munitions plant near
the lines.
The trip lasted for six days. Ev-
erywhere they we're entertained by
French officials and this is what they
write about it:
"Alsace is the most beautiful coun-
try, especially in the mountain Sec
tion. We went over the mountains
into the camps of defense where our
boys are just getting under fire. We
saw the German lines from observa-
ton posts in the mountains.
while we were there shelling was
going on just below us and two aero
planes were having battle as we
rode over the mountain. One morn
ing early our anti-craft guns brought
down German plane which fell near
where we were Both Germans were
taken prisoner.
Later we visited the plain dis
tricts in Alsace and we went through
the trenches to the last outpost and
could have stepped into No Mans
Land. Luckily the shells the Ger
mans fired fell beyond where we
were. But it was exciting enough as
it was.
"I visited the graves of our boys,
fallen at the front and put flowers on
them and visited the hospitals as
we'll.
ION the last day of the trip we
were invited to big celebration and
sat on the platform with the general
when he reviewed the troops. After
wards we had our pictures taken by
the Army Record Photographer as
being the only American women pres
ent. There was banquet for us that

quick heating body fuel. II Is the
most necessary at the front because it
is the most easily shippable. Honey
and maple syrup and such like delic-
lous sweeteners can be better handled
in peaceful Maryland than over
there" within the sound Of the guns.
So II is up to US to ship every
last ounce of sugar we can send to the
boys who need il most
The amount needed can be calcu-
lated from a request from the Y. NJ.
C. A for a September shipment Of
IL. .000.0 600 five and ten-cent bars of
chocolate. the same amount as was
sent in August In addition to this,
100000 cartons OF candy have been
shipped from this side every month.
Ten tons OF chocolate and Ave of hard
candy are forwarded each month to
England and the same quantity to
Italy. II Is sent because the soldiers
need that body-fuei in handy form.
For the same reason, we at home
must turn our attention to the other
sweeteners and ship the sugar.
That the boys crave this candy and
call for more is shown in an excerpt
from the letter Of a young college boy
now serving as a private in France,
Who writes his mother: "If You have
any chance TO slip US some sweets,
don't fail to do so. The Triangle Huts
are fairly mobbed when a candy con-
signment arrives and l never yet have
gotten there in time to get my share"
Is your boy getting his share? That
question should ensure that every
American who displays service pin
should help along the Food Administra-
hon not only by observing the two
pound-a-month ration but also by see
ing that his neighbors likewise play
the game.
