THE MOVIE CHILD.

THE MOVIE CHILD.
Poor 81. not meaning any harm
Sells hay he hasn't got;
The sheriff comes TO take the farm
Which saddens him a lot.
But look, the little movie child
BY one. sweet fearful glance
The stern faced sheriff has beguiled
To give her pa a chance.
The sheriff smiles and drives away
Pop goes 70 town that night,
And banks the money for the hay.
And everything's all right
II.
The villain. with a black moustache
Whose speech is one long curse
Persuades dear sister. fondly rash
To swipe her mothers purse.
But ali! the movie child comes in
And says in accents sad:
"Oh sister. stealing is sin
And mother would be mad"
And then dear sister sees a light
And cries in bitter tones:
To steal that purse would not be
right
scorn you. Egbert Jones"
They lash the hero to the track
And when the seven-five
Shall pass the spot in coming back,
He will not be alive.
But see. the movie child is here,
She nimbly cuts the ropes
And for a promising career
The hero once more hopes.
The fiend who tied him 10 the rail
despite his evil sneers)
Is subsequently sent 10 jail
For sixteen bitter years.

MONOPOLY OF BUTTER STOPS
 PRODUCTION

VLADIVOSTOK, March 2S.-Butter production in Siberia has nearly stopped. according to local newspa- pers, owing to government monop- oly which fixed price lower than cost. Most of the west Siberian but ter producers turned to cheese making in consequence. Peasants and cattle owners are finding it unprofitable to keep their herds and are selling them.
 The monopoly on butter, introduced by the Kerensky government and per petuated by the Bolsheviki and other governments since, has resulted in complete demoralization of cattle breeding. After the monopoly became effective butter accumulated in the hands of the authorities until they were at loss to know how to dispose of it. Great quantities were used as machine lubricant.
 Today, as a result of decreased pro- duction, the price has increase in cen tral Siberia to six and half rubles a pound.

FRANCE LOSES FORTY.ONE
 GENERALS IN THE WAR

PARIS, March 28. = Forty-ope French generals have been killed in the war, an official list states.
 Five of them, Generals Bridoux, Loyseau de Grandmaison, Marcot, Guignabaduet and Masnou, were gen. erals of divisions, and the other thirty six were brigadier generals, although at the time they met their death they were almost without exception in com mand of divisions.t
 General Barbout, one of the latter, was one of the most popular army leaders among the rank and file. Clad in long soldiers overcoat and with the soft cap of the Alpine chausseurs perched on one ear, he used to stroll by himself through the trenches. One day he was hailed by a poilu who was struggling along under the weight of two huge soup cauldrons.
 "Where are you off to-" asked the soldier.
 "To the c. o." replied the general.
 That's where I am going-give us a hand with these cauldrons."
 "Why, certainly, sonny"
 So the general and the poilu stumb- led along with the cauldrOns between them.
 At the c. O.'s headquarters there were explanations.
 q beg your pardon, general" said the poilu, with very red face.
