It has been thus from the beginning
Even when public opinion was waVer

declaration of war, the American press
st Jud by the government with fine,
fearless and splendid loyalty.
Popular opinion is made up largely
of what the people read-the facts
they read. This loyal and fearless
publicity has made plain to all the
atrocious conduct Of Germany in bring
ing this frightful calamity upon the
world and the terrible denominations
she has committed in the course OF
our progress toward victory. The
press is one of the most potent forces
to hold our people steadfast to the
winning of the war.
But If the Third Liberty Loan and
the other war measures Of the United
States government are defeated, then
the press will be forced to tell diff

the murder Of American women ana

Aeroplane Elopement Gives
Plot for New Orpheum Act

Had Grandfather eloped, but Of
course that was not done in his

have used a tandem bicycle, and
today, according to VERGE and
Verci, on the weeks Orpheum bill
at the Tacoma Friday, Saturday
and Sunday, it is done by aero
plane. At any rate, that is the
way they do it in their little COM
edy conceit, "A goth Century
Elopement." This is their idea of
the modern way of going to
Gretna Green. There are laughs
aplenty, a song or two, and much
that is attractive and pleasing.
Others on the bill which is
touted as an all-star Orpheum
show, are Ruth st. Denis, cele-
brated American dance creator;
Laura Hoffman, the American
prima donna; J. X. Emmett and

Doug Fairbanks, appearing all
week at the Liberty in "Reggie
Mixes In"
Douglas Fairbanks, who plays
the leading role In the Triangle
feature, Reggie Mixes In," show
ing at the Liberty theater, yielded
to the persuasion of film mag
mates when he was told they
would let him do all the wild
stunts he wanted to. THE Lamb"
was the mildest sort of starter.
In 1t, he had to have a rattlesnake
crawl over him, and had to en-
counter savage wolf and a
ferocious mountain lion face to
face, jiu-jitsu three Indians arm
ed with knives, soar in an aero
plane and operate machine gun.
In His Picture in the Papers"
he had to go thru a really serious
automobile accident, box with a
professional pugilist who had been
instructed to put plenty Of pep
into his work, mess up a round
dozen negro porters, be thrown
twice from a moving train, and
jump from an ocean liner and
swim to shore.
In Reggie Mixes In" he out
does all previous startling per-
formances, with a fight in which
he wrestles, falls, crawls, staggers
and plunges thru fifteen minutes
of physical combat with w. E.
Lowery, an actor OF powerful
physique, who gives the athletic
young star tussle Of very evil
dent reality. Fairbanks comes out
