Captain CarIStron
Explains Duties As
Army Judge Advocate

Although late>fn arriving. Cap
tain o. L. CarlstrOm of Aledo, who
was the speaker last evening at
the first open meeting of the city
welfare department of the Rock Is
land WOman's club at Masonic
temple, gave a splendid address to
the small company of men and
women who waited his arrival
Captain Carlstrom, who had
some unusual experiences over
seas as judge advocate, opened his
talk by explaining that the Office
of a judge advocate was not to
prosecute, but to hear both sides,
that of the state and of the man on
trial He cited many cases which
gave some idea of the character of
those brought up in the army and
with which army authorities had
to deal.
There were many misCarriages
of justice, to be sure" said Cap
tain CarlstrOm. 1T should be IN
derstOod that the men in the SER
vice came from all walks of life,
from the educated and uneducated
and from the foreign quarters as
riety Of cases. Justice was given
to all as best the authorities could
judge.
In speaking of the stories of the
mistreatment of the prisoners in
the large camp near Paris which
created such a sensation some
time ago in this country when the
facts first came to light, Captain
Carlstrom said that all the tales
were true. He told of some OF the
horrible conditions in the prison
camp, and said that just such aw-
full conditions really did exist.
Most of the cases coming up
were in some way connected with
foreigners, who had not been nat
uralized, and in this connection he
spoke in favor of AmericaniZatiOn
work. He stated that IS per cent
of the officers of the regular army
were true blue but that there were
many who were not what they
should be. and they should have
been weeded out. Captain Carl
strom believes in military training.
rightly administered. as it broad
ems a man, and makes a more
manly man out Of young fellows.
Preceding the address Mrs. J. r.
Freeman sang, Such a Little Fell
ler," Friend of Nine" and Mrs.
w. G. Murphy read Dorothy En-
tertains the Minister" responding
to an encore, reading "In the Us
ual Way" All business matters

McDonaId-Long Delight
Big Audience at First
Musical Club Recital

When the Rock Island Musical
club announces a concert the pub
lie can depend upon it that it will
in no way be disappointed for the
club always gives more than it
promises. The recital last evening
at the Rock Island club under its
auspices was no exception for Rob
ert Macdonald, pianist, and Robert
Long, baritone, thoroughly delight
ed the large audience that crowd
ed the ball room.
Mr.. Macdonald has frequently
been heard before both in recital
and as accompanist and his repu-
tatiOn as a through and through
musician Is thoroughly established.
This, however, was the first time
since his discharge from army ser
vice that he has been heard in Rock
Island and his old friends were
more strongly convinced than ever
OF his musicianship and he made
numerous new friends by his beau
tifuI playing. His tough is just as
sure and firm and his tone as beau
tiful and his technic as fiawless as
it was before ne entered army ser
vice and music seems to radiate
from him.
Mr. Long, baritone, was a new
found friend in the music world.
His voice is strong, of a good,
sweet quality and especially pleas
ing was his lighter numbers, at
least the audience was most pleas
ed with them and enthusiastically
encored him. The program was
carried out with little variation
from that announced and was as
follows:

This was the first complimentary

a genuine treat. Other attractions
will be brought during the winter
