Pictures" Which we h&v lean. nn
or two of them excellent and thrf
others so palpably faked and false .
ic is refreshing;, to say the least, to
view one like "My Four Tears In
Germany."
How anyone, no race or creed bar
red, could view this picture and not
be thrilled to the very core Is beyond
conception. - It is a truly wonderful
plcturlzatlon of events, historically
true, taken from the book of the
same name, by Ambassador James W,
uerara, and visualized In a manner
both Interesting and entertaining.
The photography is said to be Der
feet, the Interior settings life-lik to
the minutest detail, the exteriors well
chosen and the acting of the princl-i
pals and entire cast beyond criticism.
The portrayal of the kaiser and his
staff, the treatment "accorded the
Russian and English prisoners by the
Germans; the capturing and deporta
tion of the Belgian women, the killing
off of the old and young; the shoot
ing of other prisoners en route to the
prison camps to avoid feeding them;
all these and more are shown in a
manner that can't but bring the war
home' to those who view this pic
ture and it is interesting to learn at
first hand just what "our boys-' are
going up against, and the masterly
struggle of one of them who "prom
ised dad I'd get six of them." He
'gets" his six Germans, one after the
other, and winds up by rescuing a
comrade from the last
The last reel is an answer to the
Germans "The Americans Won't
Fight," and a plcturlzatlon of Mr.
Gerard's reply, 'They won't eh!"
Scene after scene shows the IT. S. i
troops training, marching and the I
'est Point cadets in their wonderful
"nachine like parade, compared to the
kaisers finest hussars with their
goose-step."

to these official documents special
troops are set aside for the pillaging
and the various batallions, regiments
and divisions make request through
the regular official channels on thes
pillaging troops for their portion of
the booty.
Following is one of these official re
quests, addressed to the Chief Pillager
for certain kinds of booty:

we did not receive everything; that was
necessary. For example we carried
away some women's chemises Instead
of shoes.
