LYRIC THEATER
.TARZAN OF THE APES" FRIDAY
AND SATURDAY, JULY
26 AND 20.

'sTarzan of the Apes" which ex-
cited considerable interest among the
readers of popular priced fiction sew
eral years ago, was shown at the
Broadway theater last night in film
form. Being the story of a primeval
manor, rather, of a man brought
up among apes and endowed with
many of their abilities-it presents
not a few difficulties to the movie
maker. All of these have been over
come in the film at the Broadway,
and apes swing realistically from
bought to bough in the jungle the
while the lions and leopards seek
their prey on the ground below.
Intertwined with the jungle story
is a domestic narrative which grows
tedious at times, and the expedient
of the cut-back is resorted to a trifle
too freely. All of this is more than
compensated for, however, by the
stirring scenes of the jungle. A ma
jority of these were photographed in
Brazil, and several hundred natives
appear before the camera The pic
ture as a whole, in addition to being
interesting, also has a touch of edu-
c~ational value. An actor named Ell
mo Lincoln meets the difficult re-
quirements of the hero satisfactorily.

SIOUX FALLS SOLDIER WRITES
OF FRONT ACTIVITIES.

Sioux Falls, July 23.@-Dr. John ID.
Donahoe received a letter from his
nephew, Dan w. Donahoe, who left
here with Company b, Fourth South
Dakota infantry, but who is now with
Battery ID, 147th Field Artillery, in
France. The letter was written on
June IA. and stated that while Bat
terry ID had not been in the front
trenches as yet, they were where they
could hear the big guns bark and ex-
pected to be sent to the front any day
and they most likely have been i'm
the thick of the fighting of the past
few days. Battery ID is made up
mostly of Sioux Falls boys.
1T is no trouble at all to hear the
big guns up on the 'front.'" he says.
while we are in the danger zone we
are not in the front, but will be there
before you get this letter. We are in
a pretty part of France. There are
many interesting and historical towns
around here, but should I mention
the names the censor would cut them
out. We are equipped with the
French 75c; have ITO head of horses

AIR WARFARE
BRITTSHER WARNS OF NEED FOR
GREAT FLEET - COULD
EASILY MOBILIZE.

London, July 23.-The develop
ment OF the fighting ~airplane during
the war will make ii necessary for all
nations to prepare after this wal
against gigantic surprise air attacks,
which might be launched suddenly
and without warning by any unscrup-
ulous nation.
This is commented upon here by
John Steel, an authority on aeronau-
tics, who points out the danger OF
such attacks particularly to Great
Britain.
Steel points out that while the mo.
bilization of large armies or navies
requires at least a week or two,
huge air force could be modified in
a very brief preiod and launch an OF.
fensive warfare which, unless antic'
ipated, might determine the ultimate
outcome of hostilities.
IAN air fleet built o~stensibly fol
commercial purposes could be con
verified into a belligerent fleet in /;
comparatively short time and with
out attracting notice even in the i'm
mediate vicinity of its mobilization.

WOMEN HARVEST
SOUTH DAKOTA BINDERS DID
NOT STOP FOR SUNDAY.

Sioux Falls, July 23.-Thousands
of South Dakota farmers did not let
Sunday interfere with their harvest
ing operations, because of the great
necessity of getting their ripened
crops out of the way of possible dam
age by hailstorms or by Smelling be-
cause of being too ripe.
Throughout Sunday binders were
operating in all parts of the agricul-
tural sections of the state, and every
hour of daylight was utilized in the
work. In cases where regular har.
vest hands failed to appear and bust
ness men and others from adjacent
towns were not on hand the women
of the households rallied to the aid
of their husbands, fathers and broth
ers land rode binders all day long
performing valuable work.
In the greater part of the state the
cutting of rye, barley, oats and win
ter wheat now Is in progress and
strenuous efforts are being made to
get the crop into the shock so 1t can.
not be damaged by unfavorable
weather conditions. Hailstorms in 9
few limited areas have damaged
small grain and corn, but in the state
at large the small grain crop will b'
one Of the greatest ever produced il
South Dakota. Corn also is making
rapid progress. and in many local.
ties is from 10 days to two weeks
ahead of its customary growth at THU
period of the growing season.
The weather during the greater
part of the filling" period was un
usually favorable over most of tn,
state. and i'm some especially favored
sections this resulted in the kerneIl
of wheat becoming so plump tina
they have cracked open-a condition
which, so far as can be remembered
never before vas reported in Soutl
Dakota.
1t now is practically assured tina
the production of new wealth il

will, in value, crowd close to tn
$500, 900 900 mark - which will
break all previous records in the his
