COMMUNITY CLUB
PROGRAM ONE OF
GREAT INTEREST

A miscellaneous program OF I'M
usual interest was given by Noah
BeilharZ at the Community club,
Sixteenth street near Third avenue,
last evening.
His Interpretation of humorous
characters found in the literary
so thoroughly appreciated that
many of the audience expressed re-
get that one program is all he will
give in Rock Island.
Familiar characters from the
works of James Whitcomb Riley,
Kate Douglas Wiggin and Mark
Twain walked and talked before the
audience as Beilharz saw fit to
make them. Children were especial
ly pleased with Mrs. Ruggles as she
lectured her own youngsters in
Birds Christmas Carol written by
Kate Douglas Wiggin.
Beilharz claims that Jim Wolf
by Mark Twain is one of the most
humorous stories written and when
he had finished interpreting it, his
audience apparently agreed with
him most thoroughly. David
Harum's horse trade with Deacon
Perkins became more real through
masterful Interpretation and other
numbers of this program were in
structive as wei las humorous and
entertaining.
The Beilharz entertainment fol-
lowed a community sing led by T.
P. Ratcliff of the War Camp Com
munity service.

PEOPLE AT LAON
DESTITUTE, THE
RED CROSS SAYS

Men are wearing burlap sacks
for shirts and children had flour
sacks for pants" This is line
from the report ia relief commits
sion in one war ridden district in
France.
"a few bags, three wheel bar
rows, two baby carriages and a
quantity of sugar beets was the
sum total of their possessions.
They sat about fires, which were fed
by wrecked furniture and timbers
of their homes, eating the beets.
They were unable to venture far
from the glow of the fires because
of lack of proper clothing" This is
a description of conditions in Laon.
Yet five years ago these people
were living as comfortably and hap
PLY as the citizens of Rock Island.
They lost all they had in the same
cause for which we gave our men.
They suffered for no cause other
than that they CHANGED to live in
the line of Germany's westward
march.
If you saw those groups huddled
about the fires; if you saw small
boys shivering in thin pants made
of flour sacks; if you saw mothers
wrapping tiny infants in shawls
taken from their backs and having
no other outer garment left for
themselves; if you saw old men
with bruised bare feet-would you

the committee on license and mis-
cellany, was reported out favorably

VOTE FIRST TINE.

Lincoln, Neb.-Thousands OF Ne
braska women for the first time
will use their partial voting rights
grated by the 1917 legislature al
the city elections next month. The
attorney generals Office is so ad-
vising city officials in order to re-
move doubt as to the effective
ness of the suffrage act, winch
permits voting for all but constl-
tutional Office. Anti-suffragists
appealed to the state supreme court
after the district court had granted
suffragists a permanent Injunction
restraining submission of the law
to a referendum. The attorney gen
erals Office holds that the act, sus-
pended while the injunction suit
was pending, again became operat
i've when the permanent injunction
was granted. The appeal, it is held,
had not nullified the acts effect
iveness. The suffragists based
their argument against a referen-
dunn on the contention that the
anti-suffragists' petition for sub
mission of the question, contained
signatures that were not genuine
The appeal may not come before
the supreme court before 1920 ana
some state officials say the case
may be allowed to die a natural
death.
