. YEARS BEHIND
 THE TIMES HAS FOR HENRY

New York, Feb. 1.-Being four years behind the times has its thrills. Henry Hustenden, German farmer of Manorvil1e, L. l., has just run onto the Battle of Chauteau Thierry, and now he is so excited he can't do stroke of work. During the summer Hustenden raises berries; during the winter he sits and listen to his wife read world events from a carefully boarded stack of German newSpa- pers, arranged chronologically. AL though losing ground steadily, Illus tenden (who can't read hinself) has never allowed his wife to skip. Last winter he got to the sinking of the Lusitania, and could scarcely wait for fall to come.
 "But haven't you known that this country was at war all along?" ask ed a member of the American Le- zion.
 "Ja," said Hustenden, 'fbut T wasn't interested because hadn't got to it yet in the papers,
 We won," said the Leginnaire, heartily. And then he added, Its all over now" He felt as though he were letting the cat out of the bag.
 It's not over yet for me-" answer ed Hustenden. returning to his wife and the stack of papers.
 Neighbors are expecting to hear a wild celebration in Hustenden's house along about April when he gets to the false armistice report.

Four HOrsernen Has
 Meaning For Women

B'or every woman, for every mother in particular. there is a poignant les son in "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" now playing at Polls theatre. For 1t is the women who are trampled most by the horrible horse men. 1t is the wives and mothers who live and suffer who are hurt most by war.
 The suicide of the young wife whose husband has left for the front, her aids the coming of the horSemen and the spectacle of the mother, the sister and the father. grieving beside the grave of the young hero of the pic ture which visions their retreat across the clouds. Conquest, War, Pestilence, Death,-the Four HorSemen are re- vealed in all their horror and in the dreadful toll they take from the won- en of the world.
 There Is the woman, brutally mur- dered by the invaders, her babies left sobbing at her side, victim of the terrible horsemen. There is the daugh- ter of the keeper of the castle sacr1- feed to the lust of the officers and longing to die, another victim of the horsemen.
 No woman who views the picture can fail to feel the sinister shadow of the four horsemen lowering over herself and her loved ones, can help realizing that hers is the power, to help rout these horsemen forever. Ana the picture is worth seeing for itself It is one of the really fine ones that have come to Bridgeport and it holds one spell bound in it's thrilling story which sweeps from South America to Paris and then on to the war.

foundations of the government depend
upon it. Just as surely as we neglect
this angle Mr.. Morgan elieves. our
