VAUDEVILLE AND
MOVIES FOR BOYS
WITH M. ARMY
Knights of Columbus Plan This
." Form of Amusement for
Every Division in
France."
A movie and vaudeville theater.
sportine goods emporium and canteen,
all on wheels that's what the Knights
of Columbus are going to havt with
every American amy division in
France.
Stars and Stripes, official publica
tion of the American expeditionary
forces, in a late issue reports that 10
of these triplicate joy bnngers are
ready to move out now, and will pro
ceed to their destinations as soon as
. official travel permits the secretaries
to cross. 1 he army organ gives these
details of the program:
Mounted on auto trucks and trailers,
each one of the outfits is going to
move under its own power wl Ither it
listeth, with a tent, three secretaries, a
movie machine, boxing gloves and
base ball outfits aboard.
Once arrived at a divisional area
whether up front or in the rear
i doesn't matter the secretary in
charge is going to pick out the most
convenient place to dump the whole
thing; and within halt a day thereafter
he and his helpmates (and the odds
are he will not lack for them) will
have the whole blooming four-ring
circus ready to do business at the
! same new stana.
-, Then, when the divison moves, all
that the secretary and his assistants
will have to do will be to dump all
their stuff on the auto trucks and
trailers again, fall In in their proper
station in the line and move with the
i division. The division simply can't
lose 'em, so long as the gas and the
! tires hold out and the boche shells
don't connect with the paraphernalia
' of les Chevaliers de Colomb, as the
natives call them.
The way divisions are moving for
ward it seems to be a pretty fairly
logical way to solve the nut problem,
say the Knights of Columbus men.
Canteen Attached.
While this Knights of Columbus
department-store-afloat, this caravel
of cheer, will have a regular canteen
i ' attached, nothing in that canteen
I " smokes, sweets, paper, reading matter
and what-not is to be sold. What
ever the Knights of Columbus has is
going to be given away. There may
not be an awful lot, but there 11 be
j 1 ;; enough to go once abound every time
i the outfit comes around. And the
; Knights of Columbus further declares
I that it proposes to stick to that until
the kaiser's future abode becomes a
y it place to put a skating rink.
As for the men who will man these
portable; huts (tents, rather), the
knights of Columbus authorities plan
.'. to send, as far as possible, the same
men to the same divisions that is, to
have the secretaries who looked out
' for certain divisions back in the states
go right along .up with their old
charges. .Incidentally, the Knights of
Columbus announce that, until further
'n6tite, they are going to have an aver
. age of 50 secretaries landing in France
each week.
As far as entertainment goes, the
Knights are going to specialize on
. athletics, particularly boxing. -
The Knights, on principle, are not
going' to send any women workers
into the Jfield. They are going to
specialize on secretaries and chap
lains. With this exception, however
Ruth Roland and Mary Pickford have
. promised to send the movie depart
ment new films of themselves every
month. And Secretary Charles Ber-
gen, who persuaded the two women
to do so, further announces that Mack
Sennett's Keystone bathing girls will
also be over (by proxy, by proxy I),
as will a certain hitherto unheard-of
! Anglo-American by the name of
S Charles J. Chaplin.
! , Mothers-in-Law in China
! As Well as In America
v. . The many jokes and innuendoes
about the mother-in-law are a source
.of wonder to people who think, be
cause the average mother-in-law
neither deserves such obloquy, nor
does she possess, here in the west,
the means to make herself so power
fully unpleasant, should her ambition
lie that way. . ,,. ' '
The person responsible for the
mother-in-law joke must have been a
Chinese, and to that person it would
be no joke,' The mother-in-law can
be relegated to the joke-shop in Eu
rope and America, but not in the
Orientl
As a child the future mother-in-law,,
- except in modern upper class families,
is despised because she is a girl. At
an early age she is betrothed, for
that merely means selling her for a
v.". good sum to another family, who will
certainly get the money's worth out
of her..
Ordinarily she goes to live with her
future husband's family, aa'aoon as
they have paid for her. Scant consid
eration she receives there a poor,
, homesick little girl, afraid to shed
tears where they will be seen, and
nothing more or less a slave to her
sometime mother-in-law,
' - In her early "teens' she is married
to someone of whom she knows little
and whom she may loathe with all her
nature. He may be a gambler, a suf
ferer from an incurable disease, even
'- " idiot, and she has absolutely no
protection from him, except through
suicide. '
Even though her husband be a de-
cent and kindly man, yet she is his to
do as he chooses with, and still more
is she the helpless victim of her
. mother-in-law's whims. If she is the
wife of the youngest son, she is also
the slave to the wives of the other
sons,
Among the lower classes she does
the most incredible amount .of man
ual labor, under, distressing condi
' tions. . "y v.
Nor is there any escape for her
from this terrible treadmill, except
hy bearing and rearing sons, who,
through their betrothals, will supply
her with slaves and relief from her
life of drudgery that is. when her
mother-in-law dies! World Out

Ore Shipments from Great
Lakes Break All Records
Ore shipments from Great Lakes
ports promise to break all records this
year, if the showing made in July can
be maintained for the remainder of
the navigation season. In sending
forward 10.659.203 tons of ore in July
all previous records for that month
were broken. The figures represent
an increase of 417,570 tons over the
high record established in July of last
year, and bring the total ore move
ment of the season to August 1, up to
29,608,933. The movement for the
same period a year ago was 26,376,768
tons. .
Shipments of bituminous coal in
July fell below the expected amonnt
by about 900,000 tons. Approxi
mately 4,000,000 tons were loaded
during the month.

13230 Street, Lincoln, Neb. -
Few cities are as well paved as
Lincoln, which has miles of splendid,
smooth asphalt or vitrified brick ave
nues stretching far into the country.
One may cross the viaduct over the
railroad yards and drive through the
Salt Creek bottoms to beautiful Capi
tol Beach, where the breezes ripple
the waves which sparkle in the sun
shine. Or there is a fine paved drive
past the university farm, through the
quiet, homey little town of University
Place and to busy Havelock, where
the Burlington shops hum like a hive
of bees, day and night.
College View is connected with Lin
coln by a pavement which winds past
some of the most beautiful country
homes in Nebraska, and the way to
Normal lies through the city park
past Fairview, the Bryan home, which
is perched on a hillside green with
sweet smelling alfalfa.
There are 85 miles of pavement in
and abont Lincoln, passing through
residence districts, where the tall
trees arch overhead and the gardens
are gay with flowers, through the
wholesale section and among the of
fice buildings and out past green fields
and amid the waving corn.
No matter how muddy the day,
Lincoln hosts can always show their
guests the beauties of the city and
its environs, spending a pleasant aft
ernoon on the boulevards and drives
of the city.
French Thrift.
If Franc lack th builnes enterprise if
Germany and England ah ha an unfallinf
economic asset In her famoua thrift While
th peaaant and Industrial laborer have
been jiaylnr 100 per cent more for Uvlnt
expense than bofor th war, and -while
they hare been taking up liberty loans, they
have at the aama time been Increasing their
deposit In some saving banks, and I think
their total deposits. For culture. In the deep,
est sense, France stands st the head of the
great nations, and real culture cannot exist
without economy. Wast la barbarism. A
Frenchman would despise th waste that
many of our people take for freedom and
magnificence. Leslie Weekly.
