BILLY BURKE AT BEST THEATRE
 TO-DAY,

Among the film luminaries now be- fore the public few have the following won and enjoyed by winsome Billie Burke, the dainty and magnetic Para mount star. Her newest picture is by far her best, Lets Get a Divorce" which plays at the Best Theatre today and which has been adapted from Sardon's great play, 'Divorcus." Miss Burke is at her best as the French convent gird, Cyprienne Marcey. Cip- rienne, to relieve her monotonous con- vent life, revels in harmless flirta- tions which shock the mother super for. hSe meets and loves Henri D.. Prunelles. writer and after she has persuaded him to elope with her( al- though the mother superior is perfect ly willing for the match, she marries him. It is after the honeymoon, when Henri goes back to his work and set ties down to writing in earnest that Cyprienne again becomes lonesome. She meets now young officer and in little while she believes herself madly in love with him. She begs her husband for divorce, and. although he is amazed and hurt, he at once agrees to her request. It is the very fact that he does agree so readily and without protest that changes the mind and heart of Cyprienne and brings about the surprising climax of the story. John Miltaun plays Henri and the cast is excellent

Germany Far From Starvation
 Despite Shortage of Food
Swedish Journalist Says Conditions Improve As One Travels to South-Austra Is In Bad Straits
 But No Danger of Uprising.

Stockholm, Aug. 24.-Germany is still far from starvation of from the limit of its indurance SO far as the civilian population is concerned.
 This is the substance of report made to the Associated Press by Swedish journalist who has just re- turned from an extended stay in Ger many and at Marienbad, Bohemia. He is an intelligent observer and cor robOrated reports of other travellers in the last month.
 In north Germany particularly in Berlin there is a marked scarcity, of fOodstuffs. Nevertheless there ! Is enough for existence and the restau rants of the better class still serve ample portions of meat without meat yard. The farmers generally still have plenty, even in north Ger many.
 Conditions improve, the Swedish journalist says, as enc goes south ward. Some five thousand guests of Marienbad hotels were served with unlimited quantities of wheat bread. butter, milk and cream. Hungarians who made up minority of the guests brought such variety of fooGstufls with them that they displayed "an al- most OstentaniOus luxury"
 Conditions in Austria are very bad except for those who receive extra food because they are doing war work. This class is earning very high wages and is satisfied with conditions but the rest of the population is longing for peace at almost any price.
 The Swedish journalist doubted the possibility of any successful uprising in Austria because of the lack of or ganizing ability among the lower classes. He said:
 Ut sounds paradoxical, but it is this very lack of organizing ability that keeps the dual monarchy from falling to pieces"
 The railroad service in Germany he declared although greatly reduced appears to be as punctual as in the times of peace. The rolling stock has been relaired and repainted and ap- peared to be in condition. The travel CT had the following meal in dining car on meatless day:
 Soup, fish with potatoes and butter, macaroni with tomato sauce, jelly tart and tea. The meal cost five marks or about S5 cents at the pres ent rate of exchange.
 Asked what the civilian population thought about the war the journalist said:
 "They have stopped thinking about it. They talk about food, sports and theatricals. Berlin theatres are filled nightly and the hotels, by the way, are being redecorated and repainted. I asked the reason for this and was told they were getting ready for the coming of peace. Max Reinhardt is even building new theatre.
 "I asked many people what they they thought about the recent German reverses. Their replies were almost sterotyped: "Hindenburg knows what he is doing. If he goes backward it is because he has an object and not because he has to-" think this fair ly represents the majority opinion"
