HUN AWAITS FOE,
IS LUDENDORFF'S
Def TO WORLD
Central Powers Are Declared
Strongest in Men and
Materials in West

Amsterdam, March 16.-Germany
is now stronger than her enemies
in men, material and air forces, and
in tanks as well. General Won Luden-
dorr declared in an interview in the
Cologne Nolkszeitung. The general
said the enemy was welcome to at
tack and would find Germany ready.
our front in the west is now
much more favorable for us than it
was last year. General Won Luden-
dorf told the interviewer. How
difficult the situation was must /,
gaugcd from the fact that we had to
restore calm in the cast and defeat
Italy in the south. But now we are
stronger than the enemy, both as re-
CARDS, men, material. aerial forces,
tanks. Everything, in fact, of which
he boasted is standing in readiness
on our side in the greatest abund-
ance.
IF the enemy wishes to attack
now let him to do so. He will find us
ready. If the enemy does not want
peace he Will have to fight, and this
fight Will, of course, be the most
tremendous of the whole war. With
Gods aid we will obtain a German
peace. not doubtful peace"
According to news received here
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg has
stated in an interview 3erlin that
the Entente had shown unrespon-
sive attitude toward Germany's
peace intentions and that the great
German offensive therefore must go
on.
In well-inform edB neutral quarters
recently the Associated Press CORE
spondent was told that the Germans
were prepared to lose 500, 900 men in
an offensive operation.
1.-THE Verdun offensive of the Ger
mans, in which they failed utterly
to break the French line, has been
, estimated in conservative quarters
as having cost them something like
100000 men.1

ducers, William Elliott, f. Ray Com
sctock and Morris Gest This is the
first time that the big No. l company
has been booked for Harrisburg and
much interest has been evinced in
its coming. Many of the players in
the cast are the same as were seen
when the play was first produced IN
1914 at a Lambs Gambol. and, in
deed. the company has been kept in
tact, so far as il has been possible to
do so in so long a period.
The play is in ten scenes and the
gorgeous costumes worn. by the stun
ningly beautiful women in the caba-
ret scene will mark a new epoch for
fashion on the local stage. The seem
cry is said to be massive and magniii-
cent, and is effective and pleasing to
both audience and players. 1t is said
the play is not only a wonderful en-
tertainment, full of comedy, laughs
and thrills. but it also tells such a
strong moral lesson that 1t is in
variably received with enthusiastic
approval by clergy in the cities in
which il has been presented. 1t is
said the Governors of seventeen states
have endorsed it and also it has re-
ceived the commendation of innumer-
able clergymen, parents, teachers and
others.
"Fxperience" tells in ten vivid and
brilliant scenes of the temptations
confronting Youth, or the average
young man of to-day. In the play.
written after the allegorical manner
of the. morality plays of 400 years
ago, Youth leaves his sweetheart in
the country cottage and goes forth
with Ambition into the great world
to win fame and fortune. At the
gates of the city he meets Pleasure
symboliZed as a beautiful and fasci-
mating young woman. He deserts
Ambition, turns his back on Opportu-
nity and goes with Pleasure to the
Primrose Path. There he meets many
beautiful temptations, among them
Intoxication, Fashion. Beauty and
others of their set He seems bound
straight for perdition and a life of
crime, when, through the memory of
his mothers love and the influence
of the church, he is reformed and
brought back to the straight but mar
row path.
