AT TJIK AKCAUK THKATKE, WKUNKSDA t AM) THLUMMY Story. ."To Hell With the Kaiser" shows the way in which Wilhelm II plunged the world into war. The fortunes of an 'American family are followed in the story, and in revenge for the ghartly fate of her little ssstcr in to Belgian convent, Alice Monroe brines about the downfall and death of the Kaiser, with the aid of an American aviator. A beauti' ful love-story runs through this pow erful narrative. , Director. George Irving directed "To Hell With the Kaiser." George Irving also directed Metro's patriotic production, "Her Boy, starring Hffie Shannon and Nilea Welch. He is prominent in the annals of the mo tion picture, haying directed "The Witching Hour," "The Conquest of Canaan," and other epoch-making pictures. On the speaking stage, he was amounted with Charles, r rohman for thirteen years. ',.. Author. June Mathis supplied the scenario for this feature. In compil ; ft .-J !fu'- uvb y . ing her data, Miss Mathis consulted every available authority on modern Germany. She is one of the best known writers for the screen. She wrote Naximova's feature, "Toys of Fate," and in collaboration with other vriters has furnished the original stories of "Draft "2o8," 'The Wind ing Trail," "God's Half Acre," and countless other features, as well as providing the adaptations of famous books and plays for Metro stars. ; Photographer. George K. Hollis ter is a specialist in photographing war pictures. He was the first cam eraman to go abroad for any Amer ican company. He took motion pic tures of the Boer War, the Boser uprising and the Spanish-American war. He gave up being a war corres pondent in favor of being a camera man. He was the photographer of the war picture, "The Belgian." A man in a million! . Leading Players. The east of "To Hell With the Kaiser'' u composed of stars, but the greatest interest .na turally centers around Lawrance Grant as the Kaiser, and Beautiful Olive Tell as the American heroine. Mr. Grant is noted for his impersona tions of the monster of Europe, and on one occasion he amazed New Yorkers by walking down Broadway dressed as the. Kaiser. He is a lec turer of internation repute,' and has been associated with Anne Morgan and Elisabeth Marbury in their work of reconstructing French towns de stroyed by the war. Olive Tell is favorite player of both stage and screen. She has appeared in "The Silent Master," "The Cirl and the Judge,","General Post," etc. Scenes. The scenes in "To Hell With the Kaiser" beggar description. The Kaiser's Council-Chamber shown, Belgian villages are burned and ravaged, there are "shots" of the trenches, and a fleet of aeroplanes is shown in battle with rival aircraft. In the realm of fancy, the Kaiser is shown going to his final destination, 'the hot place. Players. John Sunderland, who plays the aviator, is also an aviator in real life, having fought more than a hundred air battles at the beginning of the war around Liege, Namur and Ypres. Frank Currier, who plays Prof. Monroe, is a sterling actor who has appeared in countless Metro fea tures. Betty Howe is a charming player who has been seen in . "For France." The cast of characters of '"To Hell With the Kaiser" is prac tically a "Who's Who" of the screen. This picture, which furnishes the theme of world-wide interest, witl he shown at the Arcade Theatre, to morrow and Thursday. Lesson for Pig Raiser.

The scarab of the land of the Pyra mids is the expression of the hope of official copies added little or nothing to his information. In explaining the necessity for caie fully considered action at this time, officials point out that the conditions arising from the presentation of sepa rate and formal communications from the two great ' central powers ' quite different from those under which Count Hunan's adroit proposal to hold secret and "non-binding" conferences was so summarily dealt with. Now the proposition is for formal and open discussions in a manner to bind the principals, with hostilities suspended in the meantime. There- fore, the faet is recognized that the people of America and of the entente countries who are reaily desirous of: peace on fair terms are entitled to an explanation of the reasons which move the government in rejecting a proposal which on its face might ap pear to bear evidence of sincerity. Rid World of Militarism. They must understand, these offi cials say, the impossibility of compli ance with these requests without aae- I rifiee of all the safeguards which are regarded as essential to the conclusion of the kind of peace which America and the allies are determined to have and for which so many lives already have been given; one that shall rid the I world of German military domination and insure it against another and eves more savage war as soon as the Ger manic war loras can repair uicir iuk tered armies and rehabilitate their strained and broken financial and eco nomic conditions. It was emphasized that the idea must not get out that America does j.ot desire peace, for the war is bein? waged for the .realization of certain high ideals of democracy and liberty and not for revenge or desire to de stroy any nation. Another consideration which has in fluenced the officials who are shaping the course of these negotiations, is the probable effect upon the German people themselves of a, curt, sharp and unreasoned refusal of their appeal They hive been told by their rulers ihat the purpose of their e"er.ies was the destruction of Germany and Austria. " ' Now the people of Germany and Austria are finding out that they are in no danger of extermination if they cast off their armies and stop fight ing. Work to this end has been done by the system of propaganda i-i Ihe enemy countries by entente and tha American agencies. Germany and Austria have been showered with leaf lets and pamphlets printed in their own languages and in defiance of the threats of terrible punishment for ris ing so, the people have read for them selves clear statements of the reasons which influence America and entente Europe to prosecute the war to com plete victory. So these people are being taken into account in dealing with the Gor man and Austrian appeals, and the re plies which will be made must let them understand that it is only be cause these appeals do not hold out promise of a real peace on reasonable terms that they are rejected. Ever since Count Burian's prec?d ing proposal was rejected it has been realized that (he step now taken by the Teutonic governments might Le expected nt any time Therefore there has been ample opportunity for dir. cussion of the course to be followed and the present exchanges between President Wilson and the entente chancellories, probably will not be pro longed.. Every possible phase of the situation is said to have been given attention, even such a development as an appeal from French Socialists for full consideration of the German offer. ! it r:-. i-; '--.- Other Offers t Corn.- ' j ositions will be followed b other "of fers js not doubted in Washington. Determined to save their countries from invasions, the Austrian and Ger man emperors are believed to be cer tain to come forward very shortly with more liberal concessions. In fact the unanimous view here is that if the entente and American ar mies are firmly supported by their peoples and continue the war at the same tremendously aggressive pace maintained since the turn or the tide at Chateau Thierry, the time is not far off when the central powers will be ready actually to accept dictated terms. It was said at the Spanish embassy Monday night that the appeal to Pres ident Wilson for peace from Turkey which the German propaganda ser vice at Berlin had announced was coming through Spain had not been received. It is assumed that any pro posal from Turkey would follow the form of those from Germany and Austria. - ' THRESHING IS DELAYED UA1SH IXTKItl i:itK WITH WOItK OI'HAItVKhTISKS.. , l(4porU On Output Hare Cme I'rornjillj', Hay County .
