NURSES PRODUCE WILD
WEST PICTURE SHOW
Entertain Roumanian Countess at
American Show in France.

Entertain Roumanian Countess at
American Show in France.
Picture shows are being put on in
France without cameras, scenery or
any of the necessary properties, ac-
cording to reports reaching the Ma
tional Y. W. G. A. from a Y. w. c. A.
nurses hut in a Base Hospital.
Having no film or camera, the
nurses at Base decided to put on a
living picture show and invited a
group of nurses from a nearby hos
pital TO be the audience. 1t was a
real thriller, one of the wild and wool
ly west variety, with bucking bron-
choes and wild rides on broom and
mop horses.
Imagination supplied the scenery,
With the exception of placards, which
announced "the sun" when it was sup
posed to be shining or "cacti" when
the cow punchers rode across the
desert.
Countess Vacaresca of Roumania,
who had been talking to the nurses on
conditions n the German courts at the
time she was lady-in-waiting to the
Queen of ROumania, was the most ap-
preciative of all the guests.

think you could drill this company ?"
Having commanded brigade, the cor
poral put the company through its
PAGES like the veteran he was.
Back in France again he was recog-
niz2d by officers who had known him
in Gallipol as the daring and brilliant
soldier they had called "Fighting
Mac" General Birdwood, with whom
he had served at Long Pine, sent for
him and gave him commission. MOI
long afterward Colonel Macnaghten
was again sent as an invalid to Eng
land where he was summoned to Buck
ingham palace to receive from the
king q decoration as a companion Of
the order of St. Michael and St.
George which had been conferred up-
on him several years before for his
gallantIy at Gallipoli. While servirg 2
in the ranks as Corporal Melville, -
he had been personally congratulated
by the commanding general for valo,
~ Messines ridge.
/ Macnaghten's fighting days are over
jnow and he is compelled to recognize
his fact, for, as one Of his men put it,
''kc is riddled like a colander and it is
1rly his fighting spirit that keeps him
alive"

WHAT GOES UP"
by ]. E. Jones.l

There is an old adage that that
which goes up must come down, and
philosophical Americans are trying to
figure out the answer. on their bills
with the baker, the grocer, and the
candlestick maker. With 1920 a bush
ell guaranteed wheat growers for the
1913 and 1919 crops, the problem is
filled with complications, inasmuch as
wheat, to large extent, is the yard
stick for determining the prices Of
foodstuffs in general. American farm
ers raised 900,0OO,00O bushels Of
wheat last year, and of this there is
still an exportabIe surplus of 275, OO0,-
eco to 325,000,000 bushels. It is as
certain as daylight that Europe is not
going to take our surplus 1919 wheat
crop at anywhere near the price guar
anteed the farmer; and in view of this
contingency advocates are attempting
TO discount future months by urging
the government to pocket a loss OF
three-quarters of billion dollars on
the 1918 wheat crop, thus permitting
wheat to seek its natural level. Wheat
as the great food commodity, will need
to be sustained against the fall that
lies before it. If what goes up must
come down, then either commodity
prices or wages must break. When
one breaks it will bring the other
down with it, Wheat is an important
element in the problem.

LEADS IN SWEET POTATOES
Alabama Raises one-Fifth of the En-
