4 Beauty Appears in Film.

noted Broadway beauty and
Follios star, Peggy Hopkins, is fea-
tured in the first Paramount-J James
Montgomery F1agg two reel comedy,
'3Hick Manhattan" which shows at
the Isis today and tomorrow. She
will be remembered by film fans for
her splendid work as the bride in the
former Flagg series, Girls You
Know" More recently she has APP
peared in "The Woman and the Law"
In "Hick Manhattan" Miss Hopkins
plays the barefoot dancer girl, who is
down and out-"busted" but knows
that if she can only hit on a real live
idea and get some big publicity that
she will be made. Then New York
would falkland when New Yorks
talks. the press talks, and then
something is started, Boy Howdy!
A clever young publicity man from
near Peggy's home town does the rest
and both Of them make their for
tunes. New York goes wild about
her-and with reason for anyone as
pretty as Flo Donahoe in the story
Peggy Hopkins in reality, remember
would create excitement in Pompeii!
The second Flagg comedy which
win follow "Hick Manhattan" after a
short interval has already caused
much comment in film circles. An
other Peggy is starred, this time Peg

trasting perfectly with Miss Hopkins
Miss Adams recently starred in "The

number of actresses who were sug-
gested.
Asked the reason for the choice,
Mr.. Flagg said. a girl to be attrac-
tive and romantic must have in her
eyes a come hi ar look and on her
lips "stay there smile. It Is
thought that the two Peggys will at
tract all audiences as distinctive
types of American Beauties.

Hearst's Message.
I firmly believe that the vast ma
Jority of the people of the United
States are entirely industrious of war
With Germany. / believe also that
the people of Germany are equally
undesirous Of war with the United
States. Under such circumstances, I
cannot see why the century-old friend
ship of the United States and Ger
many cannot be maintained and per-
petuated by the high-minded and hu-
manltarlan rulers and political lead
ers of our respective countries.
We in America have just ceIe-
brated the anniversary of Washing
toms birthday and this should remind
US that the friendship of Germany
and the United States was inaugrated
by Washington and Frederick the
Great, two of the ablest and wisest
and most far-seeing Statesmen that
any nations have possessed in the
history of the world.
May the statesmen of our respec-
tive countries today heed the advice
and follow the footsteps Of these two
great leaders of men and builders of
nations
The course Of my newspapers has
been fair to Germany, not because
am pro-German any more than I am
pro-ally. I am merely periodically
interested in the welfare of my own
country and enthusiastically interested
in the progress of the world.
Il am sure that the United States
will value in the futre the consistent
friendship OF Germany as it has
valued it in the past and think that
most Americans realize that Germany,
like France, represents in Europe a
political, Social and economic prog
ress similar to our own.
Americans from childhood have
been taught to regard both Germany
and France as their proven friends.
We therefore deeply depIore the war
between these great nations which
have contributed SO much to the
progress and civilization of the world
and we earnestly desire to employ
the influence Of our country not for
the extension and protraction of the
war, but for the promotion of a Just
and lasting peace"

advancing British forces. Driving
through the Drocourt- -Queant line, the
English and Canadian troops are push

greatest battle Of the present offensive
and one of the most important con-
tests of the war.
The English have driven a wedge

The Douai plains spread out before the
invaders with no natural defenSeS to
