HELP.

By Harold Bell Wright.
Lord God of the Nations,
Help me to see
Ny duty to man-my
Duty to Thee!
Where the red lines of death
Have deep furrowed the land
And the harvest of woe
Is full ripe to the hand
Of wars dreadful reapers,
Help me to see
My duty TO man--my
Duty to Thee.
Lord God Of the Nations,
Help me to hope
While murder-mad armies
With crimson hands grope
For the life Of the world,
And the lust of their creed
Offers mothers and babes
On their altars of greed
While our soldiers Of peace
In this war hell cope
With these murder-mad slaves,
Help me to hope.
Lord God of the Nations
Help me to give
Myself and my alb that
: Freedom may live.
As millions have died
On this war-cross for Thee
And for man whom thou lowest,
Do thou give OF me
The courage and strength
To die IL need be-

Help ne to give.

For Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, the famous Broadway dramatic star, Dorothy Phillips is shown in the super-p pro- duction Bondage" This is a strong dramatic photoplay and shows Miss Phillips at the height of her dramatic ability. The scenes and costuming are wonderfully laid and with Will liam StoWell and Gretchen Lederer supporting the star, the. patrons are in for real treat with this produc- ton. A new episode of the Who is Number One?" serial with Kathleen Clifford as the star is shown Monday and Tuesday along with many other comedies and short dramas.

 Dick, however, has been awakened to his true self by his brothers anger. He makes up his mind to study for the ministry. And when he is ordained his youthful enthusiasm gains for him the place of clergyman in the same camp where Barney now lives
 Barney discovers Dicks presence but keeps himself closely hidden When Dick is attacked by the leader of the woodsmen, however, Barney is forced to come to the front, tell the truth to his mates and do his best to bring his brother back to health .

Such an arrangement is always a compromise. and com promise to which to make 1t effec- tive, one must bring infinite tact and forbearance and willingness to live and let live. However, l do think there are times when the comprom- ise should be made for 8 time at least.
 But there is one point on which stand firm (and I don't think it's because I'm a woman either. It's be- cause of the essential justice of it-) think it should be her parents rather than his with whom the young people live. .. .......
 Women Are the Natural Shock
 Absorbers.
 Tn such arrangements women folks have the harder position because somehow they are always the smooth CTS over-the shock absorbers.
 Besides, the man goes away to his business for the day. The woman's business is right there in the home. She has to carry it along in partner ship with the other woman and it is far easier for her if that woman is her own mother.
 Of course there are cases when the wife must live with her mother-in- law Cor better the mother-in-law with the wife.) I hope no woman will un- fairly regard this talk as a justifica- .tion for shirking such a duty when it plainly exists.
