official War
ReUieze, Coming

The Official War Review No. 4
will be shown at the Garrick theater
next Monday, Tuesday and Wednes-
day. This is issued by the Division
Of Films. committee on public in
formation. In this new war review
picture one beholds fors the first time
on the screen in this country just
what happens after a great German
, assault on the lines along the west
front These pictures, taken by
British cinematographers at the risk
Of their lives, show British soldiers
weary after days of fighting leaving
the first lines. They are covered
with mud and exhausted to the
point where they seem barely able
to drag one foot after another. But
the smile Of victory Eliminates their
-streaked faces, and as they OBJ
serve the acknowledgements pointing
the eye Of the camera in their direc-
ton they wave their hands cheer
fully. and apparently muster up a
hearty cheer. They are shown on
their way to rest. Good food and a
chance to fraternize with their
French comrades in the rest billets a
few miles back are also given them.
Another view shows roads being
prepared for an artillery advance
munitions trains bringing up shells
from the big guns, the field artillery
prepares for an attack, and the
Timber line" that carries munitions
to the batteries at the front is
clearly pictured. Just what kind Of
people the plain soldiers are in the
ranks Of the German army is a
question paramount in the minds Of
all Americans at home. In this reel
are shown thousands Of Germans
who have been captured by the
French and are being marched to the
rear. These pictures wildly show
the low order Of mentality Of the
Germans in ranks. but at that These
prisoners appreciate their good
fortune in falling into the hands Of
their enemy, for they grin and nod.
and bow and scrape for their warm
food which to them seems to be the
treat of a lifetime.

GAN ILL WIND" ETC.

The following story is taken from
the Ironton Register of last week:
"Here is good story and true one,
illustrative of the inferior railroad
service with which we have to con-
tend in these days Of war and winter
weather: last Friday afternoon, when
train No. 80 stopped at Pilot Knob,
among the passengers who got on
board was Hungarian. When the
train auditor came around to collect
fares the Hungarian told him he want
ed to go to st. LOUIS, but when he had
produced all his cash the auditor an
nounced to his passenger that he lack
ed just fifteen cents of having suffi-
cient money to pay his fare to Tower
Grove. The Hunkie pleaded but the
fare collector was obdurate, and after
much parleying the former paid his
way to Iron Mountain, disembarking
from the train at that station. The
train sped on its way, and the poor
Hungarian, doubtless bordering on
the hard-heartedness of the world in
general and train auditors in partic-
ular, fingered on the right of way, his
eyes fastened on the train until it dis
appeared in the distance. On the ar
rival of the train as Bismarck the pas
sengers were informed there would be
a wait there of three hours, pending
the arrival of the belated train on the
Belmont Branch. (These waits at
Bismarck are of frequent occurrence
nowadays.) Before the Belmont train
arrived at Bismarck the passengers on
the main line train were not little
surprised and greatly amused to see
their former fellow passenger, the
Hungarian, whom they had parted
company with at Iron Mountain, again
put in an appearance and once more
take a seat in one of the coaches. The
Hungarian had walked from Iron
Mountain to Bismarck, distanc of
about six miles, thus making up what
he was short on railroad fare, and was
again on board, fully prepared to ride
on to st. Louis. It's an i'll wind that
blows nobody good.
