"The Kaiser's Finish for Friday. Satur- day and Monday, Nov. 15, 16 and 18th. Mir.

 MT. Hauber heard of it at eight o'clock Thursday morning and had closed the contract over long dis, tance phone by o'clock. This pro duction was obtained only at an en- ormous rental. but the Hauber will be the first theatre in the South to run "The kaiser's Finish" the print being shipped to him direct from New York; advertising matter, pos ters. etc., are not off the press ye., so the people of Pine Bluff will have an opportunity of seeing this pie ture before Little Rock.

 The Story.
 Put out boldly as a warming to wives that are not content to live upon their husbands incomes, the play shows how one married woman sold her favors that she might clothe herself in fine raiment, the punch arriving when the lady keeps an ap- pointment with a strange getleman and finds herself face to face with her own husband.
 One of the most remarkable tribu- tes to the big and wonderful feature Today" is the following letter from Ada Patterson of the New York American.
 "I regard Today as the vindication of the motion picture. No critic nor enemy of the new art can stand against it, for it shows how much better picture may be than the play.
 Your cast is an inspired one. If you had searched the country you could not have found more splen- did quartette of players than Flor ence Reed, Frank Mills, Alice Gale and Gus Weinberg.
 Earnest curys,

DOING GOOD WORK IN WAR
English Church Army Has Accom-. p!ished Much for the Men in the
 Field, Says Message. :

"The English church army is doing noble work in the war;" was the message received in this country by the Episcopal church from the Church of England. Fully equipped recrea- tion huts, open to men of all creeds, have been established in all training camps in England and Wales. On the French front huts, tents and tempo. rary churches are provided. In al! more than 800 of these huts and tents are in use; some in remote places in the north for the men of the navy; others in Malta, Egypt, Palestine, Macedonia, Mesopotamia, East Africa and even in India. Frequently Hast letters have been written from these huts, bearing the heading, Church Army Hut'-letters now treasured by those at home. The bill for writing paper alone is over $60,000 year. ]:
 "Close to the front line trenches the church army keeps several 'kitch- en cars to supply the men with hot coffee. In England hotels having all the advantages of club are being maintained, where men are cared for during their furloughs. Prisoners in the hands of the Germans are also cared for by the church army"
 Recently General Pershing address, ed an appreciative letter to Preben- diary Carlile, head of the church army, thanking him for the help the army had been to American soldiers passing through England. It is proposed to maintain a hut to be known as the General Pershing Hut" The cost of one of these huts equipped, is $2,5OO
