The great motion picture director,
David Wark Griffith, who was COM
missioned by the English government
to secure views of the worlds war
for preservation in the British ar
chives, proved a source of unending
interest to the soldiers stationed on
the battlefields of France where Crit
fifth operated for some eighteen
months. In many instances the intre-
pid producer had his camera station
ed directly on the firing line and was
a better part of the time in the first

quently engaged in gay little burle-
sque stories back of the lines which
were intended to attract the attention
of Griffith and 1t was almost impossi-
BILE for him to satisfy the demands of
the "boys" for little strip of film
bearing their picture as a souvenir to
send home to some loved one. Grit
fifth declares that many thousand feet
of film was exhausted in this manner,
as It gave him real pleasure to accom-
modate all the brave fighters 1t was
possible for him to film The views
taken in France have been woven into
splendid production which is called
Hearts of the World, and which is
said to excel even his famous Birth
of a Nation" The production will go
on view at the Washington Theater
next Monday, Tuesday and Wednes-
day.

W. S. S. CAMPAIGN WILL
START AGAIN THIS WEEK
Nation VIII Renew Efforts 10 Whip
the Hun by Thrift; McAdoo
Urges Saving.

. Ora f. Upp, chairman Of the war
savings stamp committee has re
ceived the following statement from
United States Treasurer VIM. G. Nc
Adoo relative to the campaign for
pledges for war savings stamps,
which will culminate in n national
holiday June 2S. Mr.. MCAdoo state
ment is as follows:
at ~ essential that the American
people economic and save in order
to make available to their govern, ,
ment the money indispensab bly, need
ed for the war and to release sup
plies and labor required for the pro-
duction OF things necessary for our
own military forces and for the mill
tary forces OF the nations associated
with us.
"To achieve this object, there will
be conducted under the direction OF
the treasury department. n cam
palgn for pledges, eliminating June
2S, when loyal Americans through
out the country will be asked to
commit themselves to this program.
ITO the end that this intensive
campaign may be most effective, /
earnestly DeSpedh lnt CO-OpeTdtIOh
Of all organizations and Institutions
Of the nation which, through their
influence and active support, can
further this work. II is desirable
that the attention of the entire peo-
pie be cehtered on their obligation
to pledge the government this Kind
Of support for the winning of the
war, aud with this object in view.
that June 2S be observed as a ma
tional war savings day"
Tho official slogan OF tho cam =
paign as adopted is "Over the top
with war savings stamps June 2s,"
Predictions are that this national
holiday will be the greatest day In
America since this nation entered
the conflict TO crush the murderous
and barbarous Hun. Oklahoma's
quota is s47OOO,0O0. but it is be.
lieved. according to the authorities,
that the state can exceed this sum.
The campaign will extend over the
period OF a year.
