The Victory Theatre will present on
Wednesday evening, April Goth, for
benefit of the Catholic ladies, Pathe's
beautiful colored picture, Behold the
Man." which was adapted from their
former production titled "The Life of
Our Saviour"

Theatre, New York. 1t is in seven
reels and depicts with remarkable fl
deity the suiferings of our Savior, his
miracles as related in the Bible. In
its new form it is a fast moving pic
ture full of human interest and SYM
pathy, with moments of rare dramatic
power.
This is the largest film production
finished in natures own colors and as
there are only a limited number of
prints in existence, will without doubt,
mean a great deal to the citizens.
"Behold the Man" proved something
of a novelty in New York. It should
prove the same in Lamar and will
doubtless have n tremendous appeal
and will. without question, be enjoy
ed by all, for the musical setting is
said to be n masterpiece in itself.

Johnstown Points the WAY.

Johnstown, Colorado, has long been
held up as the most prosperous farm
ing district in Colorado. Now comes
the discovery that in the Johnstown
section there is not n single farm
mortgage and in these times of de-
preston for the farming industry,
Johnstown has the largest per capita
bank deposits for any town or city
in the state.
Johrstown has diversified farming.
1t grows sugar beets. But it is also
the most widely known dairying dis
trict in Colorado. In fact, dairying
is the partial explanation of the di-
versified farming and the great factor
in bank deposits and debt free farms.
Purebred dairy stock is the rule and
not the exception at Johnstown and it
is rule which has proved beyond
question.-Sterling Advocate.

HERMAN DEPORTEES
CHARGE HARDSHIPS
Assert Expulsion From AL
SAGE on Brief Notice.

BERLIN, Aug. 13 (Associated Press).-
Reports from the Alsatian frontier indi-
cate that considerable physical and finan-
cial hardships are beings imposed on
German families who are now being
forcibly deported across the Rhine.
The Minister of the Interior has au-
thorized the German Red Cross TO estab-
IIsh receiving stations at various points
in Baden, where deportees are finding
temporary assistance. The first deported
Germans have arrived at Kehl. Baden.
They say they were served with expul-
sion orders. late Friday, which allowed
them less than twelve hours to pack
their hand baggage. which was all they
were permitted to take with them. None
was permitted to dispose OF household
goods or other chattels.
The local French authorities claim
that they are not in position to modify
the expulsion orders, as they emanate
from Paris and carry instructions that
they shall be carried out on short notice.
Among the families deported arc
many which have resided in Alsace-Lor
raine twenty years or more and were
about to take out naturalization papers
CONSERVATION prevails among all classes
Of Germans in Alsace- Lorraine. who rear
tho present expulsions mark the begin
ming OF deportations on a wholesale
scale.
Vortracrts to-day expresses the behei
that the Franco-German controversy Is
an issue which properly might be re-
ferred to the League of Nations, as II
affords grounds for suitable case TO

New York Herald Bureau.
Paris, Ang. i3.
The Preparations Commission is cx-
peoted to meet tomorrow and grant n
moratorium TO Germany for at least
two or three months. during which il
is hoped Premier Lloyd George and
Premier Poincarc VIII be able TO find
grounds for a compromise.
A high authority on reparations af-
fairs admitted to THE NEW YORK HER
AID correspondent that the commission
did not want to make decision, but
inasmuch as IL had promised Germany
to do so before Tuesday. when the next
payment of 100000 marks gold falls
due. it cannot procrastinate further
without endangering Germany's finan-
cial system.
The fact is" he said, 'that Germany
needs to know what is expected Of her
just as much as the Allies want 10 have
the sums fixed. 1t is fairly certain that
there is dearth OF currency on hand
in Germany to meet the payment, ard
with the mark foundering daily IL is
impossible for Berlin to buy the neces-
sary dollars or their equivalent. As a
result of this condition IL the c)mmi1-
sion decided to enforce the schedule of
payments there would be nothing lett
but to yield to Frances wish and d.
clare default by Germany and thereby
open the way for sanctions (penalties).
But tho London conference has
shown clearly enough that none but
France is anxious to make such a
proclamation. and therefore the con-
sensus of the Reparations Commission
will be in favor of moratorium OF a
temporary nature"
The members of the Preparations
Commission do not believe that France s
suggestion that she will withdraw from
the commission is anything more than
a political bluff intended to prevent fur
ther consideration of the british scheme
for allowing the Reparations, Commits
sion to determine all treaty matters,
including the occupation of German ter
