Unkind things hnve boon sniil about theni but the fact remains that com- jiiiiuMB wu always nave with u death is the pride of the now brutal ized king. Ferdinand is in love with s girl of common birth and the king promises his consent to the marriage to encourage the commander of the mighty submarine to brilliant ac complishment with his murderous in vention. Katherine, now a member of a society of women who protest against all this frightful strife, con verts Ferdinand to the cause of hu manity. When he receives orders to attack a passenger ship carrying munitions, a vision of the result of obedience to his king comes to him. Ferdinand opens the sea-valves and all aboard the sub marine but he are lost. For a long time he is at death's door. In this condition he encounters the Christ. In the body of Ferdinand, the Spirit of the Christ returns to his world of legalized murder and devastation. This is the beginning of a series of incidents which bring the king to a realization of the horror for which ho is responsible, and at the moment w hen one more vicious attack, certain of success, will bring him victory, he announces that the terms of peace are to be accepted, though he as a soldier is in no way glorified by this procedure. "Civilization" concerns itself entire ly with picturing war in its own hor rifying colors. The causes of a war and a solution of their problems are not touched upon, it is enough that the picture shows what war means to the men, the women, and the children of a nation. Compni-ed with its cost any possible gain, regardless of its im portance to the nation, is insignificant. Thus "Civilization" brings home the fact that war is futile, and so in addi tion to being a picture whose wonder ful scenes thrill the spectator its mes sage is of importance. The ship carrying women and chil dren passengers which is torpedoed presents some of tho most thrilling wenes ever projected, A whole citv whose buildings have all the nppear janco of permanent structures i.i , wrecked. That M r. Ince spent a year ! producing "Civilization," that forty thousand people appeared from time ; to time in the production of the secies, and that a complete city was built ;."e all believable.

An Army Recruiting Station was opened at Pendleton, Ore., by Colon 1 Chas. A. V.irnum of Portland, assisted by Sergeants Kreyser Robie and Bev eridge for the purpose of accepting recruit for all branches of tho Army. Sergeant3 Kreyser and Robin will cover a largs territory in eastern Ore gon advertising and canvassing main points and enlisting the cooperation of all 2nd, 3rd and 4th class Postmasters in this line of work. Postmasters in tli'a district will be considered recruiting officers. They will be pleased to impart any and all information regarding military life literature cf all descriptions will be given to applicants upon request at Post Office. All men desiring to enlist may go to Postmaster, for acceptance. The large increase of 100,000 men for our Army, which went into effect Nov. 1, 1916 is th cf'iso of special effort to obtain men throughout the U. S. With this large increase, enlist ments have been put down from 4 years in action service and three years with reserve, to one year in active ser vice and six years with reserve or three years and four years. The War Department has expended large sums of money for the education schools in all lines of mechanicism. It is of importance to all young mon who are interested in the service to note the possibility and advantage of learn ing a trade while receiving their full pay and all other allowances. Another important feature is that all young men of good intelligence, af ter one years service, between the ages of 19 and 22 years, may take an ex amination for West Point Military Academy, and if parsed bs i. line for a commission.
