S. Walton Forgy. Of Elkton. writ
es as follows to the Courier-Journal
and there is more truth than poetry
in what he says: Everywhere the
cry Is heard fer men to come and
work. The shops and factories, bu-
sy in furnishing supplies for the ar
my and navy, are loud in their call
for help. The navy department is
advertising in every city and town
for workers to come and help in
the building Of ships. The farmers
are asking for workers TO aid them
in making their crops. From every
direction comes the call. Even the
! boys from l6 to 20 are being en-
rolled for work. while the ones just
a little older 20 to fight for the coun-
try. Nothing in this world is worth
thinking about now but the win

should be conducted with that pur-
pose in view. Then why should the

dying for their country? II he can

men arc preparing TO go TO France
TO fight for their country. while an
other crowd is composed Of great,

DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS
is LYCEUM MAGNET

Typically Fairbanksesque from start
to finish, with the famous comedian
athlete at his best, Reaching For the
Moon" played to big houses yester-
day afternoon and last evening at the
Lyceum and lived up to its advance
notices Fierce fights, daredevil
stunts that fairly raise ones hair to
the bristling point. and throughout
that humor that Fairbanks cannot fail
but develop, characterized the pro-
duction.
Laughs, smiles and chuckles ind1-
Gated the way in which the New Bri-
tain public received the picture, and
remarks heard after the show were
enough to prove that Reaching For
the Moon has taken strongly. Fair
banks is contagious; once seen he is
never missed, and at the showing Of
each of his new pictures, all of his
friends, made at previous shows, flock
back to see him again, accompanied
by their friends, who in turn become
Fairbanks admirers
Reaching For the Moon" presents
a unique plot, carried out in a unique
manner In it we witness Alexis
Caesar Napoleon Brown, employee at
Bingham's Button factor, whose one
hope is that some day he will be a
member of royal family. 1t makes
no difference whose family it is, as
long as there is some velvet to wear
or some golden spangles to display.
His devotion to the New Thought,
which teaches that concentration on
a, certain matter will bring it's fulfil
ment brings him to believe that some
day he really will move among the
nobility.
Alexis is an orphan whose mother
died when he was young, and who
was a refugee from the small country
of Vulgaria. Concentration on his
royal ideas ends with his discharge
from the button factory, and shortly
afterwards comes notice that his
mother WAS of noble birth and that
the kingdom of Vulgaria is his for
the asking. Alexis goes to take charge
of his country, leaving behind him
Elsie Graham, his sweetheart also
a believer in the New Thought, but
whose concentration is upon bunga-
low.
The experiences of the new king
in royal circles furnish action for
the story, and there is some action,
too.
Alice Howell the "Charlie Chap
lin Of the female SEX in a roaring
comedy, the IIyceum Weekly and
others complete the program.

Some Thoughts ON Hospitals.
BY RUTH CAMERON

How few people there are nowadays
who have never been in a hospital!
Especially women).
We fell to talking about hospitals
the other day and of q, group Of six,
five had had some hospital experience.
FIFTEEN Or twenty years ago the
ratio would probably have been re-
verSed
OF Course Operations Are Sometimes
Fad.
OF course there is such a thing as
making sickness and operations and
hospitals a fad to fill up an other
wise empty life. Mrs. Norris has a
character in one Of her books who
retres to a hospital whenever she
feels sighted at home and wants to
be the center Of the stage. But in
its proper place the hospital is one
of the most wonderful examples of
our modern specialization,
The violent prejudice against be-
ing taken to a hospital that used to
be so common Is now mostly confined
to the ignorant and the aged. OF
course we don't go to hospitals for
minor illnesses but I sometimes wish
there could be some sort of moderate
priced hospital home, where one
could go for that purpose. Not only
would such place be boon to the
invalid but also to those who have
to add the business of nursing to al
ready crowded lives. How often one.
illness follows another in such fam
lilies, simply because one member
has gotten dragged down by taking
care of another.
Hard Both ON the Patient and the
Amateur Nurse.
It is so hard to be sick at home
when one knows that one is making
it hard for others.
I shall never forget the exquisite
sense Of relief I felt when after try
ing very hard not to be q burden to
one delicate and one very busy house
mate, had myself emoved to a hos
pital. us there anything at all you
would like?" the night nurse asked
me at two o'clock, Gould IT, said,
hardly daring to ask for anything
so wonderful have some orange
juice?" Certainly" she said prompt
ly and in few minutes the orange
juice appeared, with cracked ice to
boot.
Won't Some of My Doctor Friends

However I have one criticism
which I have long wanted to voice.
Incidentally I find that many expo
tents are with me in this grievance.
And this is the almost universal hab-
it of waking the patients up early

They are wearing collars and cuffs

Velvet suits are trimmed with rich
fur. A striking one is of currant red
velvet.
If the hot is dull in tone brighten
it with an ornament. The hat must
not be dull
Black Or smoke velvet combined
with old lace is admirable for after
noon gowns
Hats are worn far down on the
head, so far that they completely hide
the eyebrows.
There is no doubt but that the
sash that is tied in large bow in the
back is smart.
A charmingly simple dress is of
white satin with collars and cuffs of
pink crepe de Chine.

Household Notes.

Triple, fried Or boiled gives a relish
to a meal.
Waffles are particularly good served
with honey.
Excellent bread can be made of
wheat, barley and rye.
Make buildings and soups and
bread with skim milk
Serve small portions and let people
come back for more.
A milk bottle opener is a handy
thing to have in the kitchen.
When breakfas mullins are left
over, split and toast them for lunch.
Always have the food served to a
sick person spotlessly clean and
fresh.
If you must have frosting on cake,
put less sugar in the cake itself.
A suet crust steamed for an hour
on top of a plain, wel1-seasoned meat
stew is very good and wholesome.
To have delicious mince meat use
the following idea: To a gallon
crock Of mince meat add 81 pint of
preserved citron.
If a piece of wooden cloth is placed
on the floor where glass has been
broken, all the little particles of glass
will stick to the cloth.
Instead of rolling the dry bread to
make crumbs, try putting them
through the meat grinder. 1t does the
work beautifully and quickly.
Finely chopped suet in puddinggs or
''crusts will often be eaten by chill
dren who need fat but who cannot be
persuaded to touch fat meat.
Silk, if burned, gives off a disagree
able smell similar to that of burnt
feathers, whereas cotton or artificial
silk are practically odorless.
If the cake rises rapidly in the mid
die like a pyramid and cracks, it is
cooking too quickly. A well-cooked
cake should be fat on top when done.
Appreciated the king of fruits
