There are events occurring in every
community which, if reported in local
paper, would create comm0tion little
dreamed Of. What to report and what
not to report often pcrplcxcs the editor.
He is often accused Of cowartlicc and
favoritism when all the time he is look
ing toward the good reputation Of the
town where his lot is cast The local
editor from necessity almost constantly
finds himself between two fires, which
ever way he turns he is sure to be un-
justly treated. This is one Of the pleas
ures of the newspaper business.

PATRIOTIC PICTURE AT

Effie Shannon, who has the leading
partof Helen Morrison in Metros pa
triotic production, "Her Boy" is a dis
tinguished player of the dramatic
stage, because of her special fitness
for it, having been identified with the
best and most dignified dramatic en-
deavor.
'Her Boy" illustrates the way in
which the war comes home to families.
1t shows the torturing sacrifices that
mothers must make to send their sons
away, but it shows also, that duty to
the nation and devotion to the right
lie deep in the heart of every right
minded American boy, BY every
means in her power Helen Morrison in
Her Boy" tries to keep cher boy
from entering the service, only to find
that her most extreme measure, her
'aast card" is the very one that con-
vinces him that enlistment is neces-
sity, and a glorious privilege. This
picture is at the Royal tonight.

The German airmen are not lacking
in courage, but the policy of their com

them in large formations, 10 and 20 at

ers is only of advantage at night. From
a great altitude they clay their eggs
indiscriminately and then make off al

i LOndon.-All England has been
STIRRED by the return of 800 soldiers
/ and civilian prisoners of war from
Ruhleben, Germany, some of whom are
fishermen who were surprised by the
Germans in the North sea Immediately
after the declaration of war, and had
therefore been prisoners almost from
the first day of hostilities..
It Is not because of the stories they
tell, for their lips have been sealed so
far as their own sufferings are con-
cerned by order of the government.
The remark of one of the civilians to
an old friend who met the party eve
are fairly all right, but we have all got
barbed7wire feyer'-is said to contain
the whole story. Englishmen know
what that means, and there is nowhere
lany desire to reverse the governments
order.
Symptoms of Barbed-Wire Fever
"Barbed-wire fever is the nervous
strain that is telling with increasing
force-especially in the case of the old
er men, who cannot take so much exer-
cise-upon the hundreds of men who
have spent over three years on that I'M
happy course" says the Manchester
Guardian.
"They were bitterly disappointed
that the attempt of our government to
abolish Ruhleben altogether by an ex-
change, however it might advantage
the Germans, came to nothing, and
many of the repatriated men are con-
WINGED that there may be an increase
of mental cases If Ruhleben continues
much longer. You could see the marks
of nervous excitement on many of the
faces, and probably the reaction from
being set free will be felt severely by
the men of more sensitive minds"
