To Have Five Armies
In France By June 80

Washington, Sept. 20.-Five
fully equipped American armies
in Europe is the astonishing
prospect disclosed by Gen.
March, chief Of the United
States army staff.
The greater part of these ar
mics will go to France, but it is
pointed out at the War Depart
ment that if Austria, Turkey
and Germany should determine
to die IN the trenches, some Of
the American field armies will
be found on the Italo-Austrian
and the Macedonian front.
Secretary of War Baker, in
speaking sometime ago about
the desire to help Italy, stated
that there would be no limit to
the assistance as soon as the
circumS StanceS warranted the
dispatch of forces to her consis-
tent with her demands.
Specifically Gen. March stated
that there would be in existence
by July 1, 1919, an army of
4.SOO,OOO men. and he has,
therefore, stated that a field
army consists of approximately
100000 men There are, he said
100000 men under arms" of
which nearly one and three
quarters millions are in France.

Queen Theatre Now In New

That Wiggins now has one of
the finest photo playhouses in
the state goes unchallanged.
The Queen Theatre, owned
and personally managed by G. E.
Jones, formerly in business here,
but who has been located on the
coast and other points south for
the last few years, opened it's
doors to the public on the night
of August 18th and has been
showing to crowded houses six
nights the week continuously.
The average public not being
familiar with the inside facts
of the motion picture industry,
cannot fully appreciate a show
such as the Queen Theatre, but
the fact that the people of this
town and community can enjoy
photoplay. presented in as
com Portable and up to-date home
as you find in the city and at
prices h a are reasonable
enough, is gratifying indeed.
The pictures being played at
the Queen Theatre are of the
best to be secured and with the
perfect reproduction plant that
is ins tailed and the able manage
ment in charge, Wiggins can
boast of having one Of the best
