SPARKS TRIBUNE SAYS NAME OF
REV. MENZEL WAS NOT USED

In the issue of the Sparks Tribune
Of February %, 1918, was republished
an article taken from an exchange
newspaper, relating to disloyalty,
wherein the words Prussian Lutheran
minister were used-no names were
mentioned.
The Record-C Courier construed the
article to refer to the Rev. F. II. Men
eel of the Gardnerville Lutheran
Trinity church.
In referring to seditious and dis
loyal acts, we must consider that we
are engaged in the most brutal war
the world has ever experienced. Hun
dreds of thousands of our sons,
brothers and relatives, by volunteer
ing and selective draft, are going to
meet the most cruel and unrelenting
enemy of all the ages, and who are
now concocting all the most devilisn
Vaccinations of the human brain that
despotism might live, and that liberty
and justice might be wiped from the
face of the earth.
Is it any wonder that the people OF
this grand and glorious nation are
ever on the alert and watching for
enemies in our midst?
Among the most loyal of all the
people are the men of the public
press, and at times they aim to be
fair and not Intentionally discredit
any persons loyalty. They are not
slanderers. as the Courier insists. 1t
is too serious a matter to tolerate
spys and traitors in our communities.
We again say that the name of the
Rev. F. H. Mcneil was not mentioned
in the reprint.-[Sparks Tribune.

Early California History

The first white men to visit San
Francisco bay were of the expedition
of Portola, a Spanish adventurer who
became the first governor of Califor-
mia. Portola himself was not a mem
Der of the party which, 14S years ago,
gazed upon the site of San Francisco
and Oakland. The honor of discovery
belongs to Father Juan Crespi and Ser
geant Ortega. Casper de Portola, "cap-
tain of dragons and governor of the
CALIFORNIA;" probably never saw the
bay, but his name is perpetuated as
the discoverer by the annual Portola
festivals in San Francisco. Sir Fran
els Drake came near discovering the
bay In 1878, when he landed at a
point 80 miles to the northwest.

JOAN THE WOMAN
BILL FOR TONIGHT

Of all the motion pictures ever
made none has a finer purpose than
Joan the Woman" in which Geral-
line Farrar. the famous opera star,
appears at the American Theatre to-
night.
II is not merely awe-inspiring as a
spectacle. and thrilling in its heroic
moments, but there is something big
ger and more ~ennobling back of it
than stage craft.
Ii shows to what heights a woman
can rise when it comes TO a moment
of sacrifice. No n a hold back
the big Jumps that come to the throat
when they see this wonderful peasant
girl of France, with one of England's
greatest invading knights at her feet
in the humble ~supplication of genuine
love. hold back her humane emo
tions because her country needs her.
And in the continuance of this throb-
bling love story every soul must be
stirred to see the girl Joan, hard as
adamant on the battlefield, twice save
the life of her sutton only to find in
IN -
the end that he is the one selected to
trap her for the king of England.
Historical and wonderful in pageantry
if is. but the thing that will make it
take rank with the greatest motion
pictures of our time is the way Joan's
love story is woven through it all.
Cecil B. DeMille, the producer of
the picture, has created IN epoch in
photo-dramatic history with this
thrilling and artistic achievement.
The special musical score. which
was written by William Furst, the
celebrated composer of lyric accom-
paniment to many of New Yorks
largest musical plays for the past
twenty years, will be rendered by the
American Theatre orchestra.
