ST. ANN'S SCHOOL TO ENTERTAIN
 MANY FRIENDS
Carefully Prepared Patri- otic Program to Be Given Next Thurs
 day Night.

DOUGLAS, Feb. 15.-A patriotic program is being practiced for pre- sentation Thursday night of next week, February Fist. at the Lyric Theatre, by the pupils of St. Ann's school, the entertainment constituting Washington's birthday celebration. On Friday, the following day, which is a school holiday on account of being WashingtOn's birthday, a mat inee for the benefit of the children of both Douglas and Treadwell will be given in the Lyric at o'clock in the afternoon when an admission of but 15 cents will be charged the children. The admission Thursday night will be 90 cents and the pro- ceeds will be for the benefit of St. Ann's hospital. As the hospital had been complet ed but comparatively short time previous to the accident 10 the Tread we'll mines last spring, it was left in bad condition financially and it Is | to alleviate that condition in so far as the amount will extend, that the proceeds of the entertainment are to | be devoted.

The Church and the Liberty Loan
We have not heard Of any one de-
nomination in this country that Is
not loyal and standing by the colors
with all the force that II commands.
or course there are, no doubt, persons
In all denominations who are not 10y
al, as there are members OF churches
who know not the Lord. and 80 have
no conception Of Christianity, but
the churches are not responsible Tor
these individuals. 1t has remained
however, for the Seceders TO take q
forward step that has not been TAX
en- by any other denomination. Some
days since the following advertise
ment appeared In the Yorkville En-
quirer which is a very forcible Illus
tration Of the point we are making:
Whereas, our country, the United
States OF America, Is engaged In the
world war In defense OF liberty, hu-
manity, justice. truth and right. the
principles upon which the Son Of God
has established Christian civilization.
In support OF which principles we
stand pledged with all that we have.
Therefore, be 1t resolved.
81. That earnest, faithful service or
country In this most righteous under
taking, is service Of God.
"2. That with our young men Offer
ing their all, including their lives, 1t
is our sacred duty to give them all
the support In our power.
"3. That we pledge ourselves to buy
Liberty loan bonds and war savings
certificates to the limit OF our ability,
and that we COLL upon all our fellow
citizens to do likewise"

OUR BASEBALL cRIPPLEs
After All Does Sport Make Real
Men?

Men?
This war is making plain many OF
our weaknesses. We Used to thlnK
the gentlemen who pranced about our
baseball parks In the uniforms OF the
National, the American and other
leagues were sound in wind and hmo.
We thought that gentlemen who could
pick up a baseball that was travelling
lilo q shot from a cam N, and throw
II with almost lightning speed to first
base we're physically fit. We thought
that men who race around the bases
like sprinters, slide 10 or Is feet over
the earth and come up smiling were
i'm the prime of their health ana
strength. We thought that men who
could pitch for hours without sign OF
atigue had wonderful muscles and
that catchers who handled baseballs
as if they were tennis balls were
sturdy, dependable human creatures.
We thought a lot of things about our
ball players.
But. alas, we were wrong. MOST OF
the stars in the baseball world are
physical wrecks. They have all sorts
of defects. They never will do In the
army. They have fiat feet or fallen
arches so that they would be unable
to keep up with real soldiers on the
march. They have bunged up hands
so that they never could handle n
rifle as a soldier should. Their eye
sight is poor. They are in sad state
and are fit for little else than playing
baseball and drawing fat salaries.
Nothing that is said here applies 10
Hank" Gowdy or to Benny kauH.
The modest Mr.. Gowdy Is In France
doing the duty Of q brave man and a
true American. Kauff. despite some
minor troubles such as a missing fling
or or so and the fact that one OF his
arms Is longer than the other, sees
no reason why that should prevent
him from being q first class aviator.
Various other baseball players may be
in the service or willing to be but the
vast majority seem more iheeres'eu
In baseball than war and more able
to discover reasons why they are un-
fit to be soldiers than why they should
be soldiers.
And what Is said Of our baseball
heroes is true Of many members OF
that noble body Of gentlemen VINO
make O business Of fighting and who
call themselves boxers. Has any one
heard Of Willard, Moran, Fulton
Dempsey, Langford or Jeanette, en-
listing?
Washington should do something
for our athletic .cSpples- We are
making provision for all sorts OF SUI
ferers but none for baseballists and
boxers with weak hearts and cold
|feet-Commerce and Finance.

certain that 1t was hysteria, that the
idea had come to the child as the re-
suit Of brooding over the mystery OF
her parentage. The entrance OF the

strong. noble. clear-eyed and fearless,
and said she II knew that no evil
could stand against them" They arc
indeed the hope of France today.
The speaker declared there was but
one word that would express what
France had been through during the
past three years and that was vivi-
section-that literally they had been
vivisected physically and spiritually.
The utter horror of the situation how
ever was best depicted as to the wo-
men. Taken by their conquerors as
spoils Of war and held in conditions
worse than slavery. they remained to
become the mothers OF German sons,
conquered and subjected. A French
mother always seemed proud that she
had had sons to give to France and to
die, but when the daughters were
mentioned there was always the hang
ing of the head and the knowledge
that those who had been carried on
by the Germans, while they might
live, would never return to their ma
tive land-conQuered through an in
stinct stronger than even love OF
country mother love. The unconquer-
able spirit Of the race however was
shown In the sentiment Of the boys.
who though just out from under the
awful domination Of the German mill
tary machine which had tried earnest
" to crush out OF them all spirit Of
liberty came back to their broken
homes singing a song about the kaiser
which they had secretly nurtured and
cherished In their captivity to the ef-
feet that che never would be happy
until he had his head cut off," Tn"
spirit Of such people. the speaker dc.
clared, is never conquered or broken.
DIR. Lovejoy also spoke OF the JOY
with which the Americans were being
received in France and that the firm
conviction of the people was
that as Lafayette came with his
Frenchmen 140 years ago to help In
the struggle of liberty In the new
world so that at this latter date the
descendants of those people who had
gained their liberty through his aid
are coming today to pay their debt Of
honor to his people in their hour OF
need.
DR.. Lovcjoy exhibited a mask which
she said was a gas mask for little
child. Probably the sight of this and
her next words more than anything
else struck home to the hearts OF her
hearers: "Is there any father In this
room who will not say that the king
dom of heaven on this earth .s the
kingdom Of little children? The Huns
have invaded the kingdom Of heaven
for they are destroying little helpless
children"
A plain and direct message from the
very heart of the war. Dr. Lovejoy
makes the duty Of the American pco-
pie who are at home clear, and her
message cannot be passed over.

Russia, says a London dispatch, has
followed her protest in Germany
against the Turkish operations in the
Caucasus, which have resulted In
wholesale murders OF the Armenian
population. by forwarding similar
protest by the Armenian National
Council, addressed TO the German
ministry Of foreign affairs and the
president of the reichstag. This pro-
test, received from the Russian wire
less system and given out by the Brit
ish admiralty through the wireless
press, reads:
"The Armenian National Council,
rs the supreme body for the express
sion of the will OF the Armenian peo-
pie, is addressing you in connection
with the tragic state Of things In
Armenia. Armenia Is flooded with
blood and, only recently saved from
centuries OF slavery, is again con-
demned to fresh sufferings. Follow
ing upon the withdrawal Of the Rus
sian troops. Turkish troops have al
ready invaded the undefended coun-
try and are not only killing every
Turkish Armenian but also every
Russian in Armenia.
IN spite Of the terms Of the peace
treaty, which recognizes the right
of self f-determination for these Cau-
casion regions, the Turkish army Is
advancing toward Kars and Ardahan'
destroying the country and killing
the Christian population. The re-
sponsibility for the future destiny OF
the Armenians lies entirely with Ger
many. because It was Germany's In
sistance that resulted in the with
drawal Of the Russian troops from
the Armenian regions, and at the
moment 1t rests with Germany TO
preyent the habitual excesses OF the
Turkish troops. increased by re-
yengefulness and anger.
ut is hard to believe that a civil
lied state like Germany, which mas
the means for preventing the ex-
cesses of her ally. will permit the
Brest- Litovsk treaty to be used by
the German people. who have been
involved in war against their own
will, as a means for the creation OF
incalculable sufferings. The National
Council firmly believes that you Will
undertake the necessary measures
which depend solely upon you to In
auence the Turkish authorities with
a view to saving the Armenian peo-
ple from fresh horrors"
