dear to its parents as the teachers'
lives are to their parents, and I

French race, say a a report from the
French censor, Chomurd, who has
been on the Franco-Swiss frontier
ever since the war started. An of
ficial trauslution of this report, made
by Francesco Ventresca, translator
of the U. S. war department, along
with a request to assist in giving it
publicity, has been sent to Prof. H.
P. Harss, .of O. A. C, a former as
sociate. The censor sees the intensity of
the effort of the United States but
begs for greater speed. Economic
conditions in France are fast chang
ing for the worse and: relief must
come to defeat the attempt of the
common enemy to stamp out the
French people by unparalleled atro
cities. Ten thousand French pris
oners are held in German insane
asylums, and 25,000 were kept at
the French front thi) year until
7.000 were killed by French fire and
tho rest in pitiable condition crip
pled for life, were taken back to
Germany. Under all sorts of pre
texts terrible reprisals are indicted
on the prisoners, because Gormany
has more French prisoners than
France has German prisoners.
France contributes to the support
of the allied armies in her territory,
although her production has been cut
down and much of her imports sunk
by submarines. Tho condition of the
laboring masses is fast becoming pre
carious and they look t.o America for
relief. Liberty loan. Red Cross, food

After the meeting a delightful
hour was spent in social converse and

Mr. Williams, who, by the way. re

of a popularity contest conducted by
a Minneapolis newspaper, is shown
in the early part of the picture ns a
happy young married man, iu love
with his wife and the slave or their

his wife In the arms of another man,
throttles the interloper and i:; in a
fair way of putting an end to him
until his wile knocks him uncon

with a statuette. She and the other
man flee, taking the baby girl with
them.
Recovering from his wound, the
husband seals his heart and becomes
a machine, devoted solely to busi
