correspondent, chose Washington as
the city in which to begin lecture
tour. One of the principal reasons
is that he was born there and re-
ceived his education at Gonzaga col
lege and Georgetown university. An
other is that he has special mes
sage to deliver to the American
people-a message he has been urged
by Marshal Foch and General Perish
ing to deliver with emphasis-and he
felt that it should be first spoken IN
the nations capital.
Mr.. Gibbons qualifications to speak
on actual warfare are indicated by
his having lost an eye and suffered
broken arm and shoulder from ma
chine gun fire at Bots de Belleau- He
was going into acton with Major
Barry of the marine corps when the
latter was shot. In attempting to
carry Major Barry to safety, MI
Gibbons, himself, was shot down. He
was decorated with the French Crotx
de Guerre for his heroism on the
occasion. Mr.. Gibbons will give one
of these talks here at the Grand
opera house on Sunday afternoon

is given that this, the seventh season
of this organization started by Mr..
OBrien and Oscar f. Hodge, such a
short time ago, and now grown into
mammoth concern, will be entirely
new this season and bigger than ever.
This will be found to be true not
only in point Of numbers but In talent
as well. "A galaxy Of stars, both
comedians and singers, has been
secured, and there will not be an old
joke or an old song on the entire
program. Among those who are to

1--WE Can't Have Everything"

An Aircraft special picture, direct
ed by the expert C. B. DeMille at the
Grand tonight is entitled I'VE Can't
Have Everything" But the title don't
fit the Grand's program tonight. 1t
seems like everything can be had,
and without any advance in admis-
sion prices There is new group
of pictures showing some of Keo-
kuk's boys with Uncle Sam; Johnny
BRASIL sings a dandy comic song,
when We Put an Irish Kaiser in
the Palace Over There" there's COM
munity singing and, finally, the fea-
ture picture, one of the best on any
screen for many day, I'VE Can't
Have Everything"
Rupert Hughes, of Keokuk, wrote
the story and the cast is the most
imposing one that has yet appeared
in a single picture in Keokuk. 1t is
headed by Elliott Dexter, Sylvia Bre-
mer. Wanda Howley, Kathlyn VIII
1iams, Raymond Hatton, Tully Mar
shall, Theodore Roberts and Jas.
Neill The story is of modern So
ciety, one phase of which exists in
big centres of wealth, startling but
not offensive. There's the producing
of motion picture within this pic
ture, a touch OF the tragedy of the
war, and subtle bits of comedy. The
play grips and holds.

stance Talmadge in "a Pair of Silk

HOW WILL TEUTON
MEET OUR TEST?
(Continred rom page -

then and there for permanent armi
stice, officials say.
! President Wilson will probably &c
! before congress TO cast further light
| upon the position he took in his in
! quiry to the German Prince Max as
soon as the latter replies.
/ It became known that the presf
| dents declaration for evacuation OF
| occupied territories before an arms
/ tice, did not contemplate the evacua
(! ton of Alsace Instead 1T meant
evacuation of invaded territories and
the intention, as shown by the pres1
dents fourteen peace terms to leave
the righting of the wrong done
France, to determination In the final
peace conference.
It was said by high authority that
this "righting' was open to the inter
probation of return of Alsace to
France.
The white house viewpoint on the
Wilson query was elucidated thus:
The inquiry does not bind President
Wilson to any special course.
It is distinctly an inquiry. not a re-
ply to Prince Max's peace offers;
and it will clear a way for the presi-
dent to make a fitting reply IS soon
as he knows for certain whether Ger
many wana peace on his terms or Is
merely making an insincere Ieace
move.
Particular attention was called to
the fact that among the presidents
peace terms are complete freeing OF
Russia, Belgium, occupied France
and reparation Of the wrongs Of Al
sace-Lorraine. Also there Is dis
tinct emphasis upon the fact that
self-determination shall be the gov
erning factor in territorial align
ments.
The, president felt that curt
answer would have served as ammu-
jition to the Teuton war lords 70
stimulate the peoples Of Germany and
Austria to fresh efforts under the
guise of self defense. AS the matter
now stands, Germany knows clearly
that complete evacuation OF occupied
territory must be the preliminary to
any peace move.
The German leaders are told that
they must show their true colors, not
alone to the world, but to their own
people.
During the afternoon President
Wilson visited Secretary of State
Lansing and remained In conference
with him and with Chief of Staff
March for considerable time.
The Significance of the military
mans presence there was not entire
lily clear, but speculation was that
the president was considering the
military aspects of the fueure,
should Germany decline general
evacuation.

If the bowels act regularly and thor
oughly, such dangerous matter is
safely gotten rid Of.
But if constipation exists, there
results stagnation of intestinal waste,
increased production of poisonous
substances, and their absorption in
to the blood, which carries them all
over the body.
The result is disease or disorder,
which, if neglected or allowed to
continue, cripples or kills.
The victim of such self-poison-
ing commits suicide by inches.
Constipation is bad habit 1t is
a sin against the body.
But there is an even worse habit,
a crime against Nature, the taking
of pills, castor oil, laxative mineral
waters, and salts to force the bow

Over Three Mile Advance.
GBy Frank j. Taylor, United Press
Staff Correspondent
WITH THE AMERICAN FIRST
ARMY, Oct. 9.-French and American
troops in their attack east Of the
Mouse have advanced six kilometers
(more than three miles and half)
in some places.
Attacking under cover Of yesterday
mornings darkness, the. French and
Americans caught the Austro-Ger-
mans completely by surprise and ad.
vanced more than a mile and a quar-.
ter in the initial rush. With the
coming of daylight, the resistance
stiffened, but the allies showed ahead
and made great inroads into the
enemy lines at some points.
Progress In this sector Is extremely
important as 1t removes the danger
to the American flank along the
Mouse and has routed out German
artillery nests which made the Ameri-
can positions on the river uncomfort-
able.
The Americans rescued the bat
talon which was cut off and sur
rounded in the Argonne for five days
and pushed on today. 1t is known the
situation of the Germans in the north
ern part of the forest is serious.
Further American advance will oblige
withdrawal from the forest as far as
Grandpre.
Along the Ancre, the Americans
have improved the position they cap
tured Monday.
Our artillery has caused more than
twenty-four fires behind the German
positions.
