BTRIXGIXG TELEGRAPH ASfD TELEPHONE LIXES IX PRASCE, AS SHOWN IN "PERSHING'S CRUSADERS." AT
THE HEILIG TOMORROW NIGHT. .
COMMENCING tomorrow night and
continuing twice daily thereafter
for a week the first official United
,' Ctates war film, "Pershing's Crusaders,"
.' will be shown under the auspices of
) the Government at the Heilig Theater.
Presented by the Division of Films
of the Committee on Public Informa
tion, of which George Creel is chair
man, this feature played to capacity In
Cincinnati, Chicago, New York, Detroit
and other important cities. The patri
otic feeling that Is growing in strength
all over the country has much to do
with the success of this feature, for
eeryone who has put his shoulder to
the wheel in this time of National need
) naturally desires to see what has been
accomplished by the Government with
' the vast sums received from so many
different sources.
Of course, It will be impossible to
show in one evening, or in fact, many,
more than a minimum of what has
been done, but "Pershing's Crusaders"
gives a very fair idea of some of the
more. Important activities -not only of
the "Army and Navy, but of the vast
number of civilians who are doing
things that are just as important and
Valuable as is done on the actual fight
ing front..
Do you realize that you are at war
with the Hun? If not, you will after
seeing this picture. A vast amount of
territory is covered. From the first
plottlngs of German spies in this coun
try, causing strikes and fires, to the
scenes showing "our boys" actually in
the fighting line over there, the film
unfolds a series of scenes which grips
and stirs the most sluggish blood.
There are pictures shown of how the
National Army is being made into a
powerful fighting factor in the war
for liberty. Tou see how millions of
guns, uniforms and shoes are made
and how enormous food supplies are
gathered and? landed back of the
trenches.
Best of all, there are many scenes of
American soldiers in France. Regi
ments march with swinging stride
through picturesque French villages.
The recreations of the soldirrs are
shown. The daily life of the trenches
Is pictured in detail. One of the most
impressive scenes shows the first Ger
mans captured by Americans a crowd
of unkempt soldiers and two super
cllious officers who object to being
photographed for the "Rogue's Gallery
of the Buddies.
The scene showing Secretary Baker's
visit to France in inspection tours with
General Pershing are quite recent.
Pershlngs Crusaders" gives to all a
clear idea of what is happening. Being
a Government project, no war tax will
be charged.

with deep feeling by Mr. Monteith. and
the interpretation of the organ accom

equally well done. The song is:
(Words by Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrea.)
In Flanders Fields the popples blow
Between the crosses, row on row.
That mark our place: while In the sky
The larks still bravely sinning fly
Unheard amid the suns below.
We are the Dead! Short days do
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset's slow.
Loved, and were loved; and now we lie
In Flanders Fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from falllns hands we throw
The torch be yours to hold It hlshl
If ye break faith with us who die.
We shall not sleep though popples grew
In Flanders Fields.

of any character, asserts Tom W. Saul.
former Portland man, now First Lieu
tenant in the Tank Corps "Somewhere
in France." in a letter dated May 26
to Walter Gilo, of this city.
"On the subject of whipping the Ger
mans, I have, as is usual on any sub
ject, very decided opinions," writes
Lieutenant Saul. "I have been In
France nine months. While I have not
had the opportunity of taking a crack
at them, I have had enough oppor
tunity to observe them as prisoners
and their work as German soldiers
fully to satisfy me. The definite con
clusion has been forced on me that the
German, both as an Individual and as a
nation, has reached the lowest ebb of
decency and standard in all history.
He is, first of all, a confirmed liar, un
able to keep bis word with others or
even to be honest with himself. He
has all the mean and petty sin-abilities
which are the unhappy possessions of
a true-blue liar. No crime Is too low
for him, for he believes in his ability
to lie out of the consequences.
"There is no use aiming at the de
feat of the German by economic re
taliation. He has the utmost confi
dence in his own shrewdness and is
willing to get the upper hand and gain
his own ends by any means possible.
. "These traits are not those of the
ruling classes alonev They are the
traits of the German. He cannot be
awakened or educated to a new stand
ard in an Instant. It will take genera
tions to get him back to the plane of
the Germans whom we knew by their
contributions to our people in the pre
ceding two or three generations.
"There is only one way to overcome
this inherent evil of the present-day
German, and that is by eliminating
him. Peace will come only in defeat
and defeat requires that enough Ger
mans be buried so that the remainder
will be unable to carry on their dirty
work. I'm talking of real peace, not
of a patched-up temporary affair
which will force your children and
mine to live under a sword of Damocles.
"There seem to be many people in
the states who can think of nothing
but peace. It would be much better to
talk of waking these people up than
to talk of waking the Germans. It
would bring peace sooner, too, for it
would Increase the activity of the
United States in licking the Germans.
"You and others should lead public
opinion to stand for a complete defeat
of the Germans before there is any
talk of peace. It is the only thing that
will make this war worth while.
"You have probably learned of my
transfer to the Tank Corps. The tanks
are not the suicidal vehicles that some
scatter-brained wobble-tongues make
them out to be. I know, for I have
had good figures quoted, and I sin
cerely hope you will believe this state
ment. .
"I am sorry I cannot write you what
I am doing, but I cannot. At most, I
can say we are training and hope. In
due course of time, to take our first

Butter Production for Month TCn
equaled in Any Other County.
MARSHFIELD, Or.. July 20. (Spe
cial.) Professor Fltts, of the Oregon
Agricultural College, addressing a
farmers' gathering on Coos River, de
clared that the dairy cows of the
county had made a world's record in
production of butterfat in the month
of April. 1918.
It appeared from records available
from Coos County and other parts of
the United States that 250 cows in -the
various herds of this county pro
duced more than 40 pounds of btrt tar
fat each, and this. Professor Fitts aa44.
was greater than any other county
could equal for the month, or any like
number of cows in any part of the
world could approach. Professor Fltts
attributed the fact partly to climatlo
conditions and partly to Improvement
of the herds.
J. D. Mickle, State Dairy and Food
Commissioner, also spoke at the meet
ing and said the American farmer is
among the patriotic elements of the
country and Is increasing production
in a way to be commended.
