This sensational seven-reel film
should be seen by parents, doctors,
preachers and all young people who
have arrived at the proper age of un
derstanding and can fully grasp the
lesson which is taught by "Damaged
Goods."
The great vital drama of moral up
lift is pictured vividly in "Damaged
Goods" and Bernard SliaVs version
has been handled without gloves. The
picture is too plain to be misunderstood.-
The sin of the father is visit
ed upon the child and here is pic
tured the great tragedy of sin's con
sequences. . "Damaged Goods" has received the
endorsement of social and moral up
lift workers. It teaches the lesson
that doctors, preachers and parents
would teach, but the lesson is brot
out vividly clear in the big film pro-

R. M. EVANS, Supervisor.
Madison Wis., Jan. 15 Speaking
at the University of Wisconsin, Otto
H. Kahn, of the banking Arm of Kalin
Loeb & Co., of New York city, said
in part:
"Wherever in this fateful time true
Americans are gathered together.
their thoughts will turn to a purpose
which is one and the same wherever,
throughout the world, the language
of free men Is spoken.
"It is the purpose of a common de
termination to fight and to bear and
to dare everything and never to cease
nor' rest until the accursed spirit
which has brought upon the world
the unutterable calamity, the devil's
visitation, of this appalling war, is
destroyed beyond all possibility ot
resurrect leu.
"Rome there are, a small minority
always, and getting smaller every
day, among Americans of German
birth or descent who lack the vision
to see their duty or the strength to
folliw it, and who stant irresolute,
hesitant and dazed.
"The vast and overwhelming ma
jority have acted like true men and
loyal Americans. They are entitled
to claim your sympathetic under
standing for the heartache which is
theirs, and they-are entitled to claim
your, trust. It will not be misplaced.
"I am taking very little account of
that insignificant number of men of
German origin who misguided or cor
rupt, dare by insidious and under
ground processes to attempt to weak
en or oppose the resolute will ot the
nation. There are too few of them to
count and their manoeuyers are too
clumsy to be effective. But let them
be warned.
"There is sweeping through the
country a mighty waveband its cur
rent is from West to East of stern
and grim determination, which bodes
ill for any one standing in its way.
"One element there is in our popu
lation which does deliberately chal
lenge our national unity.
"I mean the Bolsheviki in our
midst, tje preachers of liberty run
amuck, who would place a visionary
class interest above patriotism and
who in ignorant fasaticlsm would
substitute for the tyranny of autoc
racy the more Intolerable tyranny ot
mob-rule, as for the time being they
havo done in Russia.
"If it were not for the desertion of
Russia, the battle against autocracy
would have been won by now. As so
often before, liberty has been wound
ed In the hnise of its friends. Liber
ty In the wild and freakish hands of
fanatics has once more, as frequently
in the past, proved the effective help
mate of autocracy and the twin
brother of tyranny,
