AS DUTY OF JAPAN

TOKYO, July 1o.-Under the title
: -Japans Duty to Russia" in the
July issue Of Tail1wan. Marquis
okuma's new monthly. DR.. Takahashi,
professor OF international law and
member Of the House of Peers, deals
with the subject Of Siberian inter
vention. and most eomprehensively
urges the duty OF japan to save Rus
STA because Japan defeated the Rus
SLAMS a decade ago, and is probably
responsible for the present war situa-
ton, owing to the exposure Of Rus
sia,s weakness.
DR.. Talzahashi was among the nine
university professors who recently
strongly advocated active interven-
ton, In the course OF developing his
views he says that statesmen and
pubiicists who do not consider the
imminent danger of the present stu
alton ignore the .far-reaching infiu-
ence Of German activities in Europe.

Allied Soldiers Mutilated

Archangel, September 20-Chargcs that the bolshevik forces have exc cuted and mutilated several members of the Russo-allied forces whom they captured have been borne out by evil dence of witnesses and by the finding in the woods of mutilated bodies. One so brutally murdered was Pirogorr, Interpreter for a French detachment, according to evidence in possession of the allied intelligence office. After nc had been induced by Nor. the conl- mander of the Second battalion of the Third Petrograd (bolshevik) regiment, to disclose the disposition and the number of the allied forces on a prom ise that his life would be spared he was put to slow death amid the jeers and mockery of the bolshevik soldiers.
 As regards the charge that Pirogoff was a spy, Lieutenant Novik declared:
 "The company commander said that detailed maps of the roads and paths and other important documents were Sound on the prisoner. No one else saw them and their contents were known to nobody"

FILM MASTERPIECE IS HEARTS OF THE
 WORLD," HERE SOON
David Griffiths' Supreme Drama of the Screen at the Jefferson All
 Next Week

It took IS months of the time and con- centrated thought of David w. Griffith to produce his supreme achievement of filmed drama, Hearts of the World,' which will be seen at the Jefferson all next week beginning Monday matinee, November Il. His background was the actual war front in France. His char acters were humans in the midst of an awful world tragedy, yet he intermingled In all the melee of epic battle and sud- den death, and unspeakable frightful- story that no heart can resist. MT. Grif- filth desires to have understood that while Hearts of the World" deals with war and love-the love of man for a maid, and love of ones country in It's stand for right and justice for the weak. It IS drama of vital human heart in- terest he has staged. rather than propa- ganda fim. His characters. for the most part two American families living in France. are first introduced to us two years before the great war started. They and their simple personal interests are thus naturally involved in the world war which started in 1914, and were swept up in the whirlpool of the deadly con- fhct, which but serves as grim back ground for the continuation of the story, naturally influenced by the rapid events ot the war which overwhelmed the lit- tie French village, the home of the young lovers concerned in the story. To be able to take this wonderful picture at ali under such circumstances, MT Grif- filth had to, of course, first secure the assistance and cooperation of the French and English governments and war off, fices. Besides being allowed to go to the very front of the battle line, at the time actually under bombardment. the extent ot this cooperation may be judged from the filming of the English Parliament
 and French Senate in reproduction of the vital scenes enacted while the vote for the declaration of war was taken, and also the filming of the scene in the British cabinet while Sir Edward Grey and LfoNd George were waiting the pass ing of the hour of the British uitimatum to Germany. These thrilling historical scenes are naturally involved in the pro-
 gressing story of Hearts of the World, a remarkable musical score has been ar
 ranged for this production and will be interpreted by the large orchestra car red by the Company, which will be as- sisted by the usual house orchestra. Matinees will be given daily during this engagement

SHE DARKENED HER
 GRAY HAIR
We'll Known Lady Tells How She Darkened Her Gray Hair By a
 Simple Home Made Remedy

Mrs. E. IT. Boots, well known resi- dent of Buchanan county, Ia, who darkened her gray hair by simple home made remedy, made the following statement:
 Any lady or gentleman can darken their gray or faded hair, and make it soft and glossy with this simple rem edy, which they can mix at home: To half pint of water add l ounce of bay rum, one small box of Barbo Compound and II ounce of g1ycerine. These in- gredients can be purchased at any drug store at very little cost. Apply to the hair every other day until the gray hair is darkened sufficiently. This is not dye, it does not color the most delicate scalp; is not sticky or greasy and does not rub off. It will make gray haired person look 10 to 20 years younger"

MISS GREENWOOD SCORES GREAT HIT
 N"SOLONG, LEFTY
Famous Morosc0 Musical Comedy Will Be at Jeffer- son Theatre Monday
 and Tuesday

'tSo Long, Lefty" the famous metro- politan musical comedy success, which will be presented at the Jefferson the atre for three performances this week. Monday and Tuesday nights and Tues day matinee-has scored a triumph wherever 1t has appeared on its present road trip. It is the original New York company, with ini nitable Charlotte Greenwood as the stas, Here's what the Atlanta Constitution G1tic. Eleanor Boy kin, had to say of i: last week.
 It's all very well for Dorothy Dix to preach that gentleness is woman's best card. but when Charlotte Greenwood comes on the stage, slings one foot over her husbands head and says. "Get out before l knock you out, the audience seems to agree that she holds the trump After the show last night a man pro- posed toast (dry), "The longest laugh on the American stage-Charlotte Green WOOL"
 Next to her agility it is her assurance that makes the star comedienne of 50 Long, Lefty" the favorite Sure that you are enjoying the comedy as much as she Is, she takes you into her conf dence, as 1t were, and then somehow you feel party to the joke. Slapstick comedy 1t may be. but that Greenwood girl is an artist at 1t.
 It's the luck of blue moon that Char lotte isn't the whole show at that. She has the original company with her and it will be time to buy a new hat prob- ably when you see as good a musical comedy road company again. The four who keep story going in between the choruses are about as satisfactorily cast as if you had done it yourself. With Jack Pollard, it is his personality. with Hobard Cavanaugh his acting, with Eu- nice Burnhan her size as much as her tied tongue that pleases. And as for the Spanish girl, Hallie Manning who does the solo dancing and trips back and forth on the stage in many bewitch- ing costumes-well. no one minds how much she IS around.
 There are some very good musical numbers and if you didn't know before you will find out where When l Fight My Way Back to Caroline" which the vaudeville performers have been getting noisy over, came from. The best tune is the 'So Long, Letty," song which by the way, has it all over the second for pep.
 The plot concerns itself with mar riage experiment, and the situations, while funny, never reach the farcical stage. For which reason 50 Long, Let ty'' Is ahead of most shows of its kind After you have had time to think it over you still know you were justified in laughing until your diaphragm hurt Jesse Lynch Williams made Scrbner story which he called Re Mating Time" out of the same material, and it was enjoyed by highbrows. But because the Morosco comedy is quite as human, it is also as artistic in its way
