FOX'S THELATE1R.

Tonight is the last opportunity to see For Husbands Only" the most amusing, original and most talked about motion picture presented i1 a long time, tomorrow bringing the Lee Kids in their latest vehicle Swat the Spy" the newest Sunshine comedy, and four big acts of vaude- vile.
 Just when everybody is looking for ward to a fresh visitation from these inimitable imps of the screen, Jane and Katherine Lee, Fox's Theater an- nounces their welcome appearance in brand new comedy drama entitled Swat the Spy" All advance infor- nation concerning this new feature agrees in stating that these artists and originators of mirth provoking pranks are more absolutely irresist- ible than ever. Their cutting up" is so natural and spontaneous and so keenly humorous, that IS IS an open question whether their pictures are not more thoroughly enjoyed by sta1d elders than by the younger generation. Of course there are many amusing characters in Swat the Spy who furnish precisely the appropriate foil and background for these little stars. [ The thousands who have seen the Lee Kids in American Buds, we Should Worry and 1.-TWO Little 1mps," can
 not afford to miss this capstone to the
 hall of fame and fun which they have 1 created. Even their most guilty
 pranks are thoroughly@enjoyed by the 1 most fastidious, because they are SC
 natural, spontaneous, and free from
 malice. Throughout Swat the Spy | runs a vein of the tenderest pathOs ] and rlIreSf I,atriOtiSm
 Running a close second to Swat i the Spy" will be the latest Fox Sun l shine comedy entitled Roaring Lions on the Midnight Express and 1 guaranteed to be absolutely the fun
 niest comedy ever made. All lovers
 of good wholesome comedy know that 1 the Sunshine comedies are unequalled for originality, humorous situations
 and this latest one is promised to be the funniest of any yet produced
 Mutt and Jeff, the latest Pathe i News, a Pathe comedy and four big
 vaudeville acts of the usual Fo1 , standard the headliner being a big musical comedy act entitled '"The Sun shine Girls" wiht lots of pretty girls
 funny comedians and catchy songs
 and dances.

 Not until Whitney poses as Lord Roxenham does he learn that Mary Smith. U. s. A." is Betty Blake, niece of Major Blackburn, compared with learning her identity, winning her love proves an easy task. The role is a de- lightful one and enables Tom Moore

The American Red Cross has opened four new workrooms in Paris to pro- duce surgical dressings which are needed to meet extraordinary emer gencies, according to advices received at National Headquarters.
 From time to time unexpected calls, due to field operations on a vast scale, require an enormous number of dressings. When lack of shipping space or delay in transportation makes uncertain the receipt of supplies from America these emergency workrooms must be called upon.
 The first workroom is in the Rue St. Didier. It employees 370 women and 26 men. During July this work room produced 100000 front line'' parcels.
 The second workroom is at 118 Rue de la Faisanderie. It produces only sur gical dressings. Two hundred women do the work
 The third is at 25 Rue Pierre-Char- ron and does emergency work. About 100 are employed. The fourth room is operated by Russian women refu-

gees who are in dire need. The Red Cross has a surplus stock of wool here and they are knitting it into sweaters and socks for the soldiers. All such operatives are paid.
 Red Cross Chapters are making arr arrangements for the production of The Roll Call" the masque that is to be one of the principal features of the Red Cross Christmas roll call during the week beginning December IS. Percy Mackaye has written the masque and Robert Edmund Jones, who has designed the costumes and scenic efforts for 8 number of the Mackaye pageants has planned effec- tive but easily contrived costumes for the production. Everything has been arranged on the simplest scale so that the chapters can stage the masque without much effort or expense.
 Through chapter productions every neighborhood in the country will have an opportunity to see it. The services of many men, women and children will be enlisted in each chapter to stage the masque, although there are but dozen chief speaking parts In respect to ensembles, each chapter will arrange it's production on the scale desired.
 The kind of music to accompany the masque will be optional with each chapter, but many of the chapters have signifed their intention of aug menting the community chorus re- quired with orchestra or band music.
 The Roll Call'' is the story of tha emancipation of humanity from de- grading forces by the far-reaching ideals of the Red Cross.

 There is also another big feature starring the dear little favorite, Mae Marsh, in "All Woman" This is the story of much charm and it gives the
 dainty favorite a fine opportunity to prove her excellent ability. The Maud Adams of the screen has no equal as a portrayer of emotional roles, Mae

 the wonderful eyes who leaped sud-
 denly to fame and has stayed there
 with a persistence equalled only by Mary Pickford. This picture tells q.
 story which every one in the family can enjoy. The vaudeville bill is one of excellence. It includes the Garden
 Bellies in a, fine musical comedy, Law ton, a clever juggler and White and Ryan in clever dancing act.
 Thursday brings that greatest of all favorites, Wallace Reid, in one of the best pictures of the year, '"The Firef1y of France" This is one of the screen S greatest spy stories and is filled with swift dramatic action and thrilling 1 events, MT.

 production and his portrayal will

We would see girls and Young women

July IA, 1918.
Mrs. A. NJ. r. Crooks,
Dear Friend:
| lust received your letter of Apri
5th. which has had some great delay.
Il was sue nice of you to think OF me
that way.
You sure had me guessing for l re-
ceived YOUR lovely package about the
first of May, and was sure some puz-
zled TO know who sent it, but l am
now troubled again for l can't thank
YOU enough for your kind thoughtful
ness of the boys over here, and l can
assure you there is no faint hearts on
the Job which means so much 20 our
loved ones at home. Every American
soldier over here thinks only of pres
sing forward on the Huns. And be-
lieve me when the Yanks hit they sure
hit hard.
Then we have all the French doors
thrown open to US, they sure think an
awful lot of the Yanks and are as
good to US as they possibly can be,
the old ladies are just like mothers
to the boys, for which we are very
grateful.
Now | wish to express my thanks
to the Red Cross with which you are
working. | do not believe the people
at home have any idea of the good
they are doing over here, their help
is sure most wonderful for the COM
fort Of the boys, they not only work
back of the lines, but are right up
where things are the hottest, and l
must say that the women connected
with the Red Cross are the bravest wo-
men in the whole world. Then there
is the Y. NJ. c. A. which is also great
comfort for US in the line of amuse-
ment and other ways too numerous
TO mention, which is also past the
word of thanks. l sincerely hope the
other boys around the country has
the right feeling toward this great
thing we call war, for the benefits of
all concerned the cause we all know
well. / have never been sorry one
minute for enlisting, if had it to do
over again I would do the same thing
only with less delay. Well / must
again attempt to thank you for your
very nice useful package, for which
the Paragon district is responsible.
Wishing you all the best success Of
the year, / am as ever your true sol
dier, PVT. CHAS. N. GOODMAN,
