Sugar Is Scarce.

Every patriotic American is again
to be careful in the use of sugar so
that there will be an average supply
for all. The Food Administration is
making plans to distribute the supply
of sugar so that no one will be depriv-
ed of a normal supply and each one Is
urged to aid in this movement by only
purchasing such supplies as are actual
ly needed.
The supply to manufacturers of ar
tlcles demanding sugar are to be under
strict supervision and manufacturers
can only secure sugar after May 18th
by having a license from the State
Food Administrator. All such man.
ufacturers are urged to write the Food
Administration at Wheeling, West Vir-
ginia for the necessary blanks. This
includes bakers, bottlers, ice cream
manufacturers and Gamers.
Blanks will be in the hands of the
County Food Administrator soon
which will enable householders to pur-
chase supply greater than the aceus-
toned and 10 pounds during the can
ming season. Notice will be given
when the certificates arrive.
Dealers must observe the regula-
tons or their supplies of all food ma
terials will be held up.

Food Administrator
For Jefferson County.

The Red Cross Quote.

West Virginia's next war campaign
is to raise 100000 by voluntary sub
scription from the people for the
American Red Cross, the greatest or
ganization of its kind the world has
ever seen.
That is the quota fixed for West Vir-
ginia in the Second War Fund Cam
paign, the figures having been trans
mitted to Governor Cornwell, Chair
man of the State Council of Defense.
The quota assigned to West Virginia
represents a slight increase over the
amount subscribed to the Red Cross in
the first war fund Red Cross campaign
last May but in the previous campaign
the State was unorganized for war
work and the activities were confined
to few of the principal cities of the
commonwealth. In the first campaign
nearly 100000 was raised.
In the Second campaign which will
be waged intensively during the week
of May 20-27, each county has been
assigned a definite quota, based on
population and resources and it is the
intention of the management of the
campaign to put West Virginia over
the top in the coming campaign dur
ing the week fixed for that purpose.
The quota fixed for Jefferson coun-
ty is $2,560 for this fund. We believe
it can be raised in one day if a de
termined effort is put forth to do it.

The PhOtODIay Immortal.

Scene after scene of drifting love-
illness "The Blue Bird" which will be
seen at the Shepherdstown Opera
House, next Monday and Tuesday,
May 20 and 81, in a story that absorbs
the attention of the old man of seven
ty, the young girl of eighteen, the
child of five, the college boy of twenty,
| the tired business man and the mother
of the households; humor and laughter
in every scene with tears just around
the corner in many places; beauty OF
setting, beauty of face, beauty OF
story, beauty of acting, everywhere
in the humble cottage, through the
window shadows, before the portals OF
| Nights secrets, in snow and sunshine
| flowers, in the graveyard and in the
Kingdom of the Future, --everywher
| in every scene in every portion of the
most beautiful picture ever painted on
the screen by the hand of master
artist.
That's Maeterlinck's "The Blue
| Bird" That and a thousand things
more. No story-in-words, no attempt
at description, can put before the eye
what the picture of Maeterlinck's 'The
Blue Bird really is. No one can tell
in words of the thrill that comes to the
heart as the true meaning of the story
gradually unfolds; no one can explain
the eternal charm there is in the sight
of the sail-ship from the Kingdom OF
the Future and the mothers singing
on the cliffs by the sea.
Such words as leach time you smile
l am younger by year and your kis-
ses put stars in my eyes, my babies!
cannot in themselves bring tears to
the eyes, but the picture in which
they are silently spoken can bring
the thrill that is like the touch of an
unseen power. You may not know
what it is that grips you, but you
know there is something there deeper
truer, more lasting than any picture
story you ever saw.
And the reason is this:-Maeter-
linck's "The Blue Bird" is immortal
1t is based on things that know no
time, nor limitations of age, creed OF
sex. 1t is as sure of life as life it
self and will live in this masterpiece
of Photographic art long after the
screen tales of this year and next yea
and many years after that, are dead
and forgotten

assigned to the State fair gounds in
Richmond for instruction and 100 will
be sent to University of Akron, Ohio

the public schools.
Five men have volunteered for this
call, and five have been selected by the
Local Board, as follows:

Children Cry
FOR FLETCHER'S
CA 8 TO Fri q
County Court,

William M. Burns and William
Dodge were appointed Special Guards
for prisoners who may be employed
on road work. Both of them took the
oath required in such service.
The Court appointed Charles H.
Grim guardian for Charles Ross Trus-
sell to succeed Mary Ruhl who resign
ed. He gave bond in a penalty OF
$1,000.
A petition signed by number of
citizens of Charles Town District pray
ing for change in the location of the
road along the Shenandoah from the
Daley property, at the Bloomery to
Manning's Ferry, was submitted. 1t
is proposed to relocate the road on the
land of M. H. Hummer, to get it as
far away as possible from flood waters
of the river. Almost every year rise
in the river discommsdes travel in the
present roadway. 1t is also asserted
that its location on higher ground
more remote from the river will have
the advantage of greater freedom
from damage from high water. Lo-
Gated on the proposed route, the cost
of repairs will be less. The court will
view the proposed new roadway, and
will act according to their judgment
in the matter.
o. M. Darlington, representing the
Street Committee of the Charles Town
Council, presented a request for assis-
tance for improving Washington
street. In response to this, the Court
appointed Commissioners Hefebower,
Moore, and Wysong to confer with the
Charles Town corporation authorities
in regard to the improvement.
A. M. Best who had done very eff
Gent service as road surveyor in Har-
pers Ferry District for the past two
years resigned, because of a lack of
time to give proper attention to the
work. The court appointed ]. F.
Hardy as his successor.

Lest We FORGET.

When David Wark Griffith present
ed his master drama the Birth of a
Nation the critics one and all pro-
claimed it the height to which other
producers might aspire but none at
tain and that it would stand supreme
for years but it has taken but few
short years to accomplish the seeming
impossible and again the wonder of
today is the commonplace of tomor-
row for the producers of Lest We For
get have come forward with produc-
ton that so far surpasses the former
picture that the critics have again I'M
animously proclaimed that Lest We
Forget is the standard toward which
producers of the future must turn
their efforts but the National Board
of Review body that passes on every
motion picture produced and it is this
body with their unequaled opportun
claimed ''Lest We Forget" the great
est of the great productions to date.
In fact, but two pictures have ever
received the special recommendation
of this body and these two are "Lest
We Forget" and "The Birth of Ma
ton"
In the making of this mammoth
spectacle over $4,000 actors were en-
ployed, entire towns were built and de-
stroyed by gun fire as they are being
destroyed in France today. A mon
ster liner was sunk, U-boats and AL
lied Battle Fleets are shown in action
In fact, nothing has been spared to
bring before the spectators as nearly
as possible actual conditions "Over
There" Through it all runs the story
of a brave French girl, her lover and
their loyal countrymen, who are under
going almost unbelievable hardships
in their struggle for democracy.
After being shown to gathering of
Senators, Congressman and other
prominent officials in Washington, a
prominent official made the following
statement in a communication to the
producers:
Il cannot thank you too much for
your kindness in permitting me and my
colleagues to view the magnificent
spectacle, "Lest We Forget" 1t is
wonderful production. Everybody who
saw it wanted to go over the top /
wish it success ESQ did the others who
saw it,. Thanking you again l am
sincerely yours"
LEST We Forget" comes to the
Opera House, Charles Town, for an
engagement of one day, matinee and
night, Monday, May 20, direct from
run at the Lyric Theatre, New York,
at admission prices of $500, while the
prices here will be but Csc, 35c and
so cents,

American soldier boys under shell fire
il France are being given all possible
comforts and assistance, according to
an announcement just received here
from the National War Work Council
of the Y. NJ. C. A. At the present
time there are more than $50 Ameri-
can Y. NJ. C. A. secretaries under shell
fire. These men have been with
Pershing's troops from the time they
landed on foreign soil.
A total of $5,000,000 is being ex-
pended monthly by the Army Y. NJ.
c. A. in its work for the American
troops at home and abroad. There
are $500 Y. NJ c. A. workers in
France and England and 5000 in
American camps.
Because of the increasing need for
men in this service and the force
necessary to operate the entire canteen
system in France, efforts are being
made to. enroll at least 1000 more
business and professional men of high
standing who are willing to go to
France for every kind of Y. M. C. A.

hours.
The Y. M. C. A. has established e

needs of the Sammies as they take
their places alongside their Allies.
The Y. NJ. c. A. huts on the Russian
