TO SHOW WAR PICTURES HERE
Powder River VIII Be Shown Al
Auditorium by American Legion.

Dean H v. Stearns of Washburn
college will give pipe organ recital
of famous war compositions at to-
nights exhibition of the official
United States moving pictures of the
war at the auditorium by the Aneri-
can Legion.
The powder River picture, con-
sisting almost entirely of actual pho
tographS of Kansas soldiers fighting
their way thru the Hindenburg line,
starts with a matinee this afternoon
and will be shown three times daily
until Saturday night, 2:3O, 7:15 and 8
o'clock each afternoon and evening.
Many Topeka ex-servIce men have
recognized their photographs in the
advance showing of the film, mothers
have seen their soldier sons engaged
in death struggle with the Huns, have
seen in some instances the supreme
sacrifice of the boys who fell in ac-
ton. The pictures are not CLOSED
over and the horribleness of war elm
mated. They are as true as modern
photogra phic science can make them,
depicting even the very emotions
which cross the faces of the men as
they grapple with their enemies.
1t is the first opportunity ever Of
fered for the people at home to I'M
derstand and realize actually what
happened to those men who crossed
the seas to meet the foe which plan
ned the conquest of America and the
world.
But 1t not only shows the worst or
war, it shows the glorious accomplish
ments of the Kansas doughboys.
There are times when the audience
will rise from their seats and cheer
like mad to see the boys from the
Sunflower state hurl back the heavy
field gray lines Of the Germans and
charge forward to victorious attack,
invincible and conquering.
There are picture which show the
conditions as they existed at the front,
which show the horrible destructive
ness ofthe war, which show better
than any written history just what
lappened in France, what part Amer
lea played in that heroic struggle
against world dominion of the Ger

ART TREASURES NOT INSURED
For One Reason, No Amount Of Money
Could Replace Those in Brit
ish Storehouses.

The great national storehouses of
art treasures are not insured, writes a
correspondent Of the London Daily
Mall. No compensation would be
forthcoming in case of fire or theft.
The reason is that the premiums on
the millions of pounds worth OF pic
lures in the National gallery, antiqui-
ties in the British museum, and exhib-
Its in the Victoria and Albert muse
TIN. for instance, would amount to a
very large sum.
If art galleries and museums in
sured they would have to pay out far
larger sums than they receive in ad-
mittance charges" said an official of
the National Portrait gallery. THE
latest apparatus for preventing and
detecting fire is employed, and night
watchmen are present"
An official of the British museum
said: "We have very thorough sys-
TENS of patrolling, and special firemen
of our own, who formerly served in
the London fire brigade"

DAMAGES for Grief.

Measuring human emotions In dol
lars and cents is the newest problem
confronting French juries as a result
of decision of the Paris courts Of
appeals, promising to revolutionize
French procedure in damage cases.
Hitherto. for example, in the case of
person killed in an accident the
survivor was allotted damages only
upon the basis of actual material loss,
such as the depreciation of the family
income, but henceforward juries will
be asked to grant supplemental al
lowance covering grief and physical
wear and tear.
