TO ARMS! CALLS
WALTON CLARK
TO AMERICANS
Universal Military Service
Urged by Franklin In
stitute Head
VALUE. OF TRAINED MEN
WALTON CLARK
"I heartily sympatlilzo with tlio present
movement to enlarge our ai my ami jiuvy,"
Bald Walter Clark, president of tlio
Frnnklln Institute, toJaj , "but most at
tho proposals I hear do not ro fur enough.
No volunteer system will meet the world
wide emergency we arc facing.
"I advocate a universal mllltaiy serv
ice. Every nblc-bodled citizen should be
ready to bear arms. L'pnn what grounds
would wo buso exemption were wo ac
tually In the cltuatiou that fuees every
European country today? What light
haVo we to count on escaping such a
situation?
"Universal service means a military
training In all the public schools. Every
boy In the land, Irrespective of race or
religion Catholic, Jew or Protestant
should receive such a training. He should
know how to uso arms, undergo haid
shlps and obey orders. In tlmp of war
there would bo no distinction between the
rich and poor: there ought not to be In
actual preparedness.
"Most' of tho school boys In the country
would bo better oft If they would spend
part of the 'long vacation' In mllltnry
training. Uy the tlmo they were 18, i eady
for ,llne of battle, they ought to bo fa
miliar with the manual of arms. For city
boys thero are ample oppot (unities for
field drill and campllfe at points like Fair
mount Park.
"Whoro would Fratiie he today If every
man had not been ready when the Ger
man drive came In Auptist, lflll? They
sprang- to arms as one man. Otherwise,
they would have been wiped from the
map. Paris would have fallen in less than
a week. Thero was no tlmo to train
marksmen or drill regiments on the eve
of battle.
"Our coast today would present less
difficulties to trained invndlng fone
,than Belgium or France did. There nre
'several nations that could have 100,000
men ready to land here In n week. At
the present time I understand wo have
Just 400O men two cavalry and two In
fantry regiments of tho regular army-
ready for Immediate action east of the
Mississippi River. Militia or volunteer
trpgps could not hold back a disciplined
enemy. Only llne-of-buttlo men could pro
tect our women and children from a forco
that would have about as much mercy
on the submarines showed them. Where
could we get a lino of battle today?
. "While these facts aro now familiar,
-what are we, as cltlzdiiH, doing about It?
.Offers of generous Individuals will not
make us 'ready.' There must be a legal
ized, universal plan worked out that will
take care both of the present and future.
"Wo cannot keep our liberties, much less
our prosperity, if we aro not willing to
fight for them.
"Willie the President's speeches did
good. Congress has not yet woko up.
Members of Congress should be made to
tfeet that evasion or delay In meeting this
Issue will not bo unpunished, Let thoso
'who see the danger keep urging action
until both the navy and tho reserve army
are made sufficient and effective. We
must have them both and without further
delay. Half-hearted preparation Is as
bad as none.
"I also advocate a Bureau of Munitions,
to be provided for in the present Con
gress. Our existing plants are under
heavy contracts and we do not know how
far the drain will go. It Is a cuse of
safety first, Not only the shells and can
non, but the actual firearms fo'r a real
army must be carefully provided. This
cannot he done in a day or a month. Wo
might easily be found to be saving others
and unable to save ourselves. Unless our
ordnance and equipment measures are put
on a scientific basis In the near future,
under competent experts, wo shall not
only be unprepared, but likely to repeat
the scandals of other wars."
Mr, Clark's emphatic views, urging con
sreeslonal action In the Immediate future
upon, adequate lines, met with strong ap
proval from Arthur E. Newbold, of I) rex el
& Qp.; General Theodore E, WIedershelm,
John, qribbel, president of tho Union
Xeajuej William D, Grange, C, Stuart
Patterson and others active In financial
and commercial affairs.
Jn expressing approval of the Increase
In the number of Naval Academy stu
dents Joseph B. Thomas, of 30 North 6th
street commented upon the small number
of trained army officers In this, country of
the type possessed by Germany and
France.
"This was one of England's great
needs," he said, "and we. are much worse
off. While strengthening and expanding
West Point, more attention should be
elyen to the private military academies
and the officers' schools, where men may
be disciplined for command. A large
army without well-equipped commanders
Is little better than a mob, as has been
frequently shown."

Daisy, tlio Stage Knvnrlte llcntrlce Prentice
Not bo long ngo the World Film Cor
poration released a very clover picture
called "The Flash of an Emerald," In
which Robert Warwick came Into tho
director's ofllce and was given a scenario
to read. The play was the scenario and
Warwick played the lend. At the end,
the plcturo ngnln showed the star Btlll
reading the scenario, llo flung It down
and said he wouldn't play tho role for
any amount. It wns a clever -piece of
work.
Now tho Paramount people use a
similar Idea In "Nearly a King" by show
ing Harryinore ns an m'tor, who Is given
if'srennrlo to read by his valet. He starts
to read It and tho scene rhanges to the
valet's slory.
One Is led to believe as the story un
folds that Hie valet In his youth wnsj
I bitten by that most contnglous of all
germs to t boy. the Frank Merrlwcll
bug. He calls his hero "Jack Merrlwell"
and sends him Into ndventuies which
I quite equal those of thn mythical Frank.
' Then, loo, nfter traversing Eonla, Hug-
. land and America, with this literary
I valet, one feels that the gentleman had
1 nlso read those classics, "The Prisoner of
Zenda," "Itupert of Hcntzau," to say
' nothing of "Grauetark" and tho other
"ompanlon stories. This talented -valet
Is Hurt I.. Stnndlsh, Anthony Hope and
Ocorgo Ilarr McCutclicou rolled Into one.
i Any one with that Imagination must
I make an Interesting story and this valet
was no exception. Ho did a bully piece of
I Impossible romantic nonsense excellently
suited to John UarrMnore's peculiar
tnlents.
As regards the principals It Is a caso of
"Mr John Ilurrymore is good, John
Uarrymore Is line, Jack Barrymore Is
sci earning;" The first of this throe In
one combination might bo described as tho
gentleman who reads tho scenario, tho
second portion Is the same gentleman as
the Prince, far too dignified for mere
".lack," while thp last, and the most nt
tractlve. Is the sntnp clever, subtle come
dian of "The Dictator" and ''The Man
from Mexico" a happy-go-lucky, Jolly
"Jack."
There Is plenty of merry comedy In this
film. The scene whore Barrymore, elad
In pajamas, coasts Into a young lady's
room on his steamer trunk during u
terrible storm nt sea gets many laughs.
The photograph Is good throughout, as
is always the case in any Paramount
production. Double exposure again plays
an Important part and the scenes showing
"Jack" talking to his double, the Prince
of Bulwana are cxtraordlnailly good.
The plcturo Is Interesting and amusing, If
not over oilglual. It will play the last
three days ot this week ut the Stanley
Theatre.
A dollar bill with her autograph on It
has been tile source of much amusement
to pretty Vola Smith for more than a
year. The fun began when, in an Idle
mome
out. Miss Smith autographed the bill
sntnt it. Next day a Los Angeles
and s
udmlrer sent It to Miss Smith, with
request for her photograph. Regularly
since then tlio dollar has been coming
back. Up to date Ml.is Smith lias spent
It more than a hundred times, only to
have it returned to her by admirers In
every part of the country. It's getting
n little frayed now, but is still good for
Its face value or, as most people seem
to prefer, an autographed plcturo of Miss
Smith. Watch out for It In your change.
The number is lUSLMSSUt.
More than half a score of artists nnd
experts were employed In tho making of
a Babylonian scene which will be one of

Marguerite Clark is all tangled up in
tho deluge of mixed Identities required
for the dual title role In the Famous
Players-Paramount adaptation of Mark
Twain's "The Prince and the Pauper,"
which comes to tho Apollo on Friday,
Despite traditional quotations, there Is
everything In a name when It comes
down to theatrical availability. The title
Is all-Important and many good plays
have failed to reap their deserved harvest
of success because they have been Im
properly named. There will be an ex
ample of appropriate play-numlng when
the fotrhcomlng attraction at the Blue
bird Theatre, on Friday, Is shown In
Bluebird Photoplays. "Secret Love" Is
the title adopted for the screen version
of "That Lass o' I.owrie'e." and, as an
example of cleverly adapting a title to
a story, "Secret Love" would bo hard to
match. Those who have read Mrs.
Frances Hodgson Burnett's story will
readily appreciate the change In title to
"Secret Love" as being more admirably
fitted to the story than the original cap
tion. Mate's License Suspended

I.Ike the general who yeatned for new
worlds to conquer, Mike Magee ran about
Kensington today looking for light. Ho
had been to seo a boxing show and the
athletic spliit wan strong within him
as well as another kind, which makes
men "enthusiastic." To give vent to his
feelings Mike Indulged In shadow box
ing. Ho threw his coat nnd vest on the
sidewalk and soon had a number of vic
tims strewn about the street. But no ouo
happened to seo them but Mike.
While ho was In the midst of his shadow
fight a big elephant hove In view In
charso of an arrogant Arab. It seems
that the Arab gave Mike impudenco and
the pugilist felled him with a blow to
the Jaw.
He was about to tapkle. the elephant
when Policeman Bill llenckert arrived.
"I can kill tho elephant as well as tho
rest ot them!" shouted Mike, "so leave
me alone."
He broke away from the cop and
Jumped high In the air, expecting to land
on the elephant's trunk. But the animal
managed to dodge, for the fighter found
himself on the sidewalk When ho
Jumped to his feet again tho elephant
had disappeared, also the Arab. They
seemed to vanish In the air.
Encouraged by his success In routing
such a mammoth opponent, Mike then
attacked the policeman. Benckert quieted
him with one blow and took him before
Magistrate Diet at the Trenton avenue
and Duuphln streets station.
"I licked 25 men, an elephant and an
Arab," declared the prisoner, "and I can
tackle a few more. I believe In exercise.
If other people followed me they'd al
ways have good health."
"Yes, exercise Is good for everybody,"
the Judge agreed, "and I will give you
an opportunity to have some during the
next 10 days In the county prison."

SADIE HARZENSTEIN
A 13-year-old girl, Miss Sadie Harzen
stein, daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Samuel
Harzenstein, who have a department
store nt 70C2-7054 Woodland avenue, won
tho first prize In tho Friends' Temperance
Association and W. C. T. U. iempernnco
essay contest ut tho Harriet Bccclier
Stowe School, 70th street and Woodland
nvenuo. She was In tlio 8-B grade and
her teacher was MIhh Mary Thornley
when she won tho prize, which was
awarded Just before the close of the last
Hchool term
She chose as her subject "Intoxicants
and Athletics," and wrote a clever story
to show the effect of alcohol on n youth.
The i-Hny which won tho prize at tho
btowe school follows:
"James Wlllnrd was n Kecond Dorlzas.
Ho played fullbnok on lust year's varsity
No one ever credited any of our lctorles
to Wlllnrd alone. Yet even n stranger
was Immediately Impressed by his good
work.
"To prepare for a game he did not
practice football, for those trained senses
of his were, In that line, near pel feet.
A swim was always enjoyable ns well ns
profitable. Ilo was a mighty wrestler. I
don't rememhor over hearing or seeing
that Hercules thrown. Anyway, ho wan
always prepared tind in perfect condi
tion for tlio coming onslaught.
"Next Thursday was iho day sched
uled for our last game, which gave the
Una decision whether wo or our op
ponents would bo the champions and tho
winner of the many trophies. The coach
gave strict understanding that no player,
Including tho scrubs, should go out tho
previous evening, to bo in condition for
tho big game.
"Jim was an alright chap, accustomed
to obeying orders. Hut Wednesday night
tho fellows (not players) gao a party
In honor of the team. Wlllnrd being
among tho best players was thoughtlessly
persuaded to Join the party. He was
never known to ililnk: in fact, not even
to smoke. Hut tills time, for niero po
liteness ami company's sake, he drank
with the rest.
"It was a cab with Its sleepy dilver
that brought him back homo-that day.
To lie more exact, the next, for It was
nearer Thursday proper thnn the night
nn which he had left. The keyhole
seemed to have gotten slightly blurred. At
any rate. It appeared so with Wlllnrd.
Ills head was all right, but his feet Just
wouldn't behave.
"He arose that morning with a slight
hondnche. Ills change In feeling had
gone nway. He thanked goodness that it
was all over.
"It was about 2:.10 that nfteinnon. Hun
dreds hnd already gathered for tho game.
About nn hour later both teams were on
tho field. Tho signal sounded and they
were off.
"Tlmo was called to carry an opponent
off tho field. Wlllnrd had slammed him
so hard that I heard the victim ask a
friend to look down nnd seo whether his
foot was still with him.
" 'Yea. Wlllard.' cried the throngs, as
they watched their hern send the ovnl
between tho upright posts for the first
touchdown. The coach woro a pleasant
smllo nnd praised Wlllard's condition.
"Nobody save Wlllard himself knew
that ho was nbout done for. He had lost
great energy and resources. Tho ball
was thrown to fall right into Wlllard's
arms, but ho did not get there ns fast as
usual. The first half wns over. The
score was in our ravor.
"Tho coach could not remove Wlllard,
for oven In his worst, hn was better
than another In his best. The scoro was
now In favor of our opponents. Again
Jim caught the oval. The field was clear
for a touchdown, which would tie tho
scoro. A player came from behind,
steadily gaining foot by foot. Just n few
yards from the goal a pair of arms found
Jim's legs. Wlllard fell. Tho whistle
sounded nnd tho gamo was over.
"it Is truo that one man does not make
up a team, but one man can win or lose
for that team. And, due to one player
using intoxicants tho previous nlglit, a
whole team was defeated, also bringing
defeat to the entire district and the
thousands of other eager patriots."

In his candidacy for ic-elcctlon In May,
nn nmhIHnn ncalnst WlllCll StoUgll llOS
aligned tho church vole and o000 trail
hitters," nnd Is seeking to enlist tho
colored vote as well. Itlddlo supporters
maintain, however, that the money was
diverted from tho organized chnrltles In
accordance with a legal opinion, nnd
Stough's blast may bo made tho basis ot
a slander suit.
Hostility tr the Mayor caused the crowd
lo contribute $62.76, which will be handed
to the charities organization today.
Doctor Stough predicted disaster for At
lantic City If the voters nt tlio May pri
mary permit the city to ho delivered over
to Riddle, chorus gins, cauarei ciiieruun
ers and gnmhlers.
"Leave thli town to tho Mnyor nnd his
crowd and you will mourn tho day you
did It." ha said. The evangelist nsscrte'd
that the percentage ot hypocrites In
churches wns 1 In 12.
Jack Cardiff, Slough's welterweight
trainer, who icccntly announced In Phil
adelphia his Intention to branch out ns an
ovnneollst on his own account, looks to
day ns If ho had held tho losing end ot a
20-roiind light. Cardiff slipped while
strolling on the Boardwalk with Stough
in a snow Hurry yesterday nfternoon nnd
fell upon his face. His scalp nlso was cut
open 'and he had to be nsslstcd to tho
office of n physician for tieatment.
An Inlet skipper who Is going to glvo
up $80 a Sunday in summer profits to stay
