George AIDE and presented by Charles
J. Harris and Company, comes to the
Bijou the first three days of the COM

Cooney Sisters, IN eastern sensation

novel entertainer, will complete the bill
of vaudeville and the leading attraction
in the picture line will be the supreme

Ones skin has enemies on every

working, working, to mar ones

little foes can be downed.
W HIGH of these little enemies is it

Every time you powder-indeed,

Wind and Time will direct against
you. You can make the powder
stay on two or three times as long
as ever before! Before you powder,
rub little Ponds Vanishing
Cream into your face-just the
least bit on the tips of your fin
gers. Instantly it disappears. Then
see how smoothly the powder goes
on, how natural it looks. This
cream contains no oil, so it cannot
reappear in shine. Skin special

CROP SHORTAGE REPORT SENDS
 FOODS UPWARD
Wilson's Action on H. C. l.. Has No Effect on Chicago
 Board.

Chicago, Aug. 13.-Every single staple in which there are dealings on the Board of Trade rose decidedly in price today. Whatever effect to the contrary might have been looked for from the address of President Wilson to congress in regard to the high cost of living, was entirely ob-- scured by the opposite influence ot the government crop report Whlch was issued shortly before he spoke,
 So impressed were traders on the exchange here today with the unex- pected magnitude of the crop losses shown during July that the presi- dents views appeared to be virtually ignored as a market factor. Price changes turned instead almost en- tirely on the exceptional severity ot recent crop damage estimated at 7.5 per cent for July alone. The July cut of 221, 100000 bushels in estimated wheat production was said to be the most drastic on record.
 Extreme upturns of 4 cents a bushel in the value of corn and ot s1.75 a barrel for pork resulted December delivery of corn jumped te 154 7-8 and September pork to 47.75 Soaring of prices continued throughout the day, and corn closee at the topmost point reached, witt December delivery at 1.56 1-2 to 1.57 an ascent of 5 IA to 6 Is bushe since yesterdays finish.

BUCK PR|VATES TO
 HAVE SOCIETY WITH
 U. s. HEADQUARTERS
Local Organizations Are to Be Known as the
 s'DugOuts.' '

With the American Forces in Ger many, August 15.-The Buck Privates Society organized at Montabaur by members of the First division, an- nounced recently that headquarters in the United States would be opened in Chicago late in August with Ed ward M. McGuire, national field rep resentative, in charge. Branches are to be established in every state in the union, according to present plans. Private Paul F. Collies, battery D, 9th field artillery, of Los Angeles, Calif., is president of the society which has several thousand members. All headquarters of the society in the different states will be known technically as "bug outs." A wom- ans auxiliary is also planned, which will include in it's membership all women who served with the American Expeditionary Force, such as well fare workers, telephone operators and nurses.
 As it's platform the society has adopted these blanks: Broader edu cational work: cleaner politics, com pulsory schooling for all boys under sixteen years of age; to make bigger and better Americans and to interest ourselves in industry, commerce and labor"
 The society is characterized as a "great movement for the heroic dead of the A. EFF" and it is planned to make fathers and mothers of men who died in action in France honorary members. Ore of the duties of the members of the society will be to make an annual visit to the homes of sol diers who died on the battlefields of the world war.
 Membership in the society is re- stricted to privates.

Torpedo Boats All of Germany's Navy
 On Active Service

With the American Forces in Ger many, Aug. 15.-The Germans have organized two flotillas of torpedo boats since the armistice and these constitute virtually all the warships left in active service in the German navy, according to information re- ceived here. :, One of these flotillas is described in Mittschiffs, German naval peri odical which has reached the Ameri- can headquarters, as the Iron Torpedo boat flotilla. It consists of l2 tor pedo boats which, the periodical says have been engaged in maintaining order on the western coast of Ger many.
 Some of the vessels of the flotilla have been used on several occasions for police work in the port of Ham burg, doing duty guarding allied food shipments to the Czecho Slovaks and similar work during periods of dis order. The flotilla has it's headquar- ters at Wilhelmshaven. A landing corps of about 360 men is distributed among the 12 boats, each of which has a platoon of 30 commanded by a naval lieutenant. The clothing and arms of members of this landing corps are the same as in the infantry
 The other group of vessels called the Half flotilla is supposed to be doing similar duty on the Baltic coast near the Russian boundary, witE headquaters in Koenigsberk. The boats are armed with machine guns and in some cases with 3.7 centime ter p,1ns as well. The flotilla was organized for operation in connection with the East Prussian Freiwilligt corps and was until a few weeks agt subject to the commander of th' northern army.

Former Captain
 Sues Colonel for
 $25,O00 Damages

. Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 15.-On the eve of his departure for Fort Sam Houston, where he IS to become head of the militia bureau, Southwestern department, Col Franklin o. John son, commandant at the Columbus Barracks, was made defendant today in a $25 1000 damage suit filed in the local state courts by Francis M- Doyle, former captain in the quarter masters department under Col John son. Doyle alleges false arrest.
 The suit is the continuation of court martial proceedings instituted by Col. Johnson, against Captain Doyle early last spring in which Doyle was charged with conduct unbecoming an officer. He was under arrest at the barracks for five months. The court martial proceeding lasted from February 26 to May Il and attracted attention throughout the country. Doyle as counsel for private who was to be tried by special court, de- manded general court and being re- fused by Col. Johnson, appealed to the commander of the Central Depart ment at Chicago. This resulted in Doyle being arrested.
 Doyle was found guilty by a gen. eral court but decision was reversed by Major Leonard Wood, commander of the central department

HAuRER THEATRE.

Tom Moore appears as a regular tramp in "The City of Comrades for part of the drama at least. The effect was not achieved by makeup, however, but by time and neglect. It took him a week to become sufficient ly disreputable. He didn't shave and he wore his tramp clothes every day until even his little daughter Alice hardly knew him. At the big gates of the Goldwyn Studios the watch man didn't recognize the erstwhile star. but ordered him away as nui- sance. Of course when Tom Moore lifted his eyes and grinned--well, wouldn't anyone have known him?

Lodge Sympathetic.


 Chairman Lodge is understood to be in sympathy with the move for early action by the committee and it is thought examination of witnesses next week may be hastened and no more called.
 Much interest was manifest in the set of reservations shown to sena tors by Mr. Lodge. It was said he did not aggressively advocate their adoption but merely asked the opin- ion of several senators regarding them. It was suggested as one possibility that one entire reserva- tion group might eventually substi- tute the reservations framed by the republican leader for the McNary draft. MT. Lodge has not publicly committed himself, however, in favor of a reservation program as aaginst the adoption of textual amendments to the treaty.
 One of the many conferences o1 the day was held late this afternoon at MT. Lodges office and Senator McNary was present. It was saie to be the first time the two had gone over at length the reservation ques tion. Afterward, neither had any announcement to make. Senator Hitchcock also talked with Senate, McNary before going to the White House and during the day, severa. republican members of the foreign relations committee went over to- gether the senate situation.
 Monday, the committee will hea, Thomas F. Willard, called as an ex pert on Far Eastern affairs, and or Wednesday, unless the White House conference is continued, members will question J. c. Ferguson, another expert on the situation in the Far East. MI "a
 Among the first proposed amend ments to come before he~committee when it takes up that subject will be a series presented today by Senator Fall, republican, New Mexico, under which American representation would be eliminated from various interna- tional commissions which are to ad- minister reconstruction measures in Europe.
