8 HUNS WILL QUIT BEFORECOUNTRY IS DEVASTATED sec Too Much Destruction in France to Let Fatherland Suffer the Same American Forces on tlie Vesle Front. Aug. 26.—Prisoners taken Sat jrday by American troops in the re gion of Chateau du Diable. to the west of Fismes, said they had been ordered to keep in constant contact with the Americans along the Vesle river. The German retreat north of the Marne river had been carried out in an orderly manner, they declared, hence German soldiers believe it to have been premeditated and a tac tical maneuver intended to eliminate an awkward salient. The general impression among German soldiers, the prisoners said, was, now that so many powers had Combined against Germany, that it was not possible for Germany to win. yet the entente allies would never be able to enter Germany because the Germans had seen too much of the destruction in France to permit of Germany suffering in a similar man ner. The prisoners said Germany would be defended to the last man. If that did not suffice an immediate peace must avert an invasion. The Ger mans admitted that the Americans had fought with freshness and en thusiasm.

Trigg has been named regional adviser of Listrict No. 4. the Philadelphia region, which in cludes portions of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware. It is the function of the regional advisers to keep in touch with busi ness men and business conditions and to inform the government as to the supply and industrial situation in their respective districts, in order that the government purchasing agents may know where to get the best and quickest rest Us on orders to meet war requirement#. These advisers thus serve as points of contact between tie government and the business men <>f the country. They are the direct fespresentatives of the resources and conversion sec tion of the war industries board, of whom Charles A. Otis is chief, and to whom their report sare made. These reports serve not only as a basis of information to the govern ment, but also have led to the con version to war work of hundreds of idle or partly idle factories through the country. The subregional chairmen in the Philadelphia district are: Samuel W. Curven. Philadelphia; Irving C. Norwood. Bethlehem; Jerre H. Barr, Reading; A. H. Huston, Coatesville; D. E. Tracy, Harrisburg; Worthington Scranton, Scranton. Charles C Krouse, Williamsport; C. D. Garrettson. Wilmington, Del.; General C. E. Murray, Trenton; Charles S. Boyer. Camden, and Sam uel T.

C., | since our country entered the war, i the United States Civil Service Com- I mission announces that there i 1 pressing need for several thousand j more workers of this class. Women ' epecially are urged to offer their | services for this office work and i thus help in a practical way in the nation's great undertaking. Entrance salaries range from $l,OOO to $1,200 a year. Most ap pointments are made at $l,lOO. Higher-salaried positions are usually tilled through promotion, original appointments at salaries in excess of j $1,200 being rare. Examinations are held every I Tuesday in 550 cities, including Har- ! risburg, and the commission states! that an examination will be held in any city, day or night, when there, is prospect of assembling a class of ] as many as three competitors. Eli-1 gibility for appointment may be ob-1 tained through passing an examina- ' tion in practical tests in shorthand j and typewriting, or in typewriting alone. It is practical to complete such an examination in one hour. Representatives of the Civil Service j Commission at the post offices in j all cities are prepared to furnish j definite informations to persons in terested.

The room regis-1 tration office states that usual ' charge for rooming accommodations I with board—that is, the two prin- i cipal meals of the day—is $4O a month. To obtain this rate, it is; usually necessary for two persons j to share a room. In addition, the Government is erecting residence halls, including restaurants, for the j use of Federal employes in Wash- ' ington. It is expected that the first j units will be ready for occupancy by , December. The room registration j office states that it is able to provide j accommodations in the meantime. I George H.

He urged that the grocers limit their customers pur chases not tc use as much as they can buy, but to use as much as they need.

KALBFUS IS SUREJJF GAME Says That There Will Be an Abundance For the Hunt ers of This State "Deer are Increasing,' so are iVild turkeys and there has been a good hatch," said Dr. Joseph Kalbfus, the veteran secretary of the State Game Commission, in talking about a tour of 1,500 miles around the state game preserves which he took in company with Dr. Charles B. Penrose, chair man of the State Game Commission, Commissioner John M. Phillips and: Boies Penrose, Jr., the son of ihei chairman. It is an annual trip and; the party went into many wild tracts! as well as visiting the new game pre serves in Dauphin, Huntingdon.! Un'on and Forest counties. Dr. Kalbfus hopes to take a report to the meeting of the Wild Life League! of Pennsylvania when it meets at; Conneaut Like early in September! that will make the sportsmen happy.' "We were at seventeen preserves and looked over things generally. There are six new preserves con templated." said Dr. Kalbfus. "The preserves ere meeting the purpose| for which they were established and: will be valuable in the next few years. Deer are increasing generally aril thev are tc be seen in the west ern counties now. We intend to buy more this year to stock new pre serves, but there will be many to hunt anyway. "We have found an abundance of cover; many wild grapes and berries; plenty of food for the small game nnd the large. I inquired especially about quail and found that they had gotten along well and that the senti ment for an open season is growing. There are still a number of counties closed, but the closed periods will! soon expire No objections were made to the closing of the season for ruffed grouse. The weather has been good for the hatching of this game bird and the one-year period seems to meet favor. There are more wild turkeys than I have ever known in the southern tier. "All told, it seems to have been a! good summer and we ought to have! fine hunting this fall." Griffith's "The~Great Love" a Notable Picturej World famed as the producer of stupendous motion picture spec tacles, David Wark Griffith is respon sible for many of the most celebrated cinema triumphs known to the mo tion picture art. Without attempt ing to give a complete list of Mr. Griffith's picture productions, men tion must be made of the "Birth of I a Nation," "Intolerance" and his | wonderful war picture, "Hearts of I the World," which was recently prc j sented in New York with such won derful success. In all these tre mendous photoplays, Mr. Griffith has evidenced that remarkable director ial talent which has bade his produc tion so uniformly massive, instruc tive and entertaining, and which are recognized as examples of the high est in cinema art. In "The Great Love," Mr. Grif fith shows the marvelous transfor- ; mation which the social structure of | England is undergoing as a result of the war and, coupled with this pro cess, is a fascinating love story that | makes this production one of the | most remarkable in point of attrac- j tion ever produced anywhere. The i making of this wonderful picture re- | i quired months of careful thought ( and study, thousands of dollars and the traveling between two continents. All the scenes are laid in England ; and France, showing the tremendous ; war activity of the two great nations ; in the cause of democracy. Mr. Grif- \ fith's departure in photography are a j part of cinema history and the men- | tion of his name in connection with . any screen offering, invariably ex- I cites high anticipation for something j new and ponderous in the way of ad- j vanced technique. None who see j "The Great Love" will be disappoint- i ed in his latest achievement. Of the celebrated players who will be seen in "The Great Love" under | artcraft auspices for the first time, the most notable are Robert Harron. j a splendid actor who appeared in i "Hearts of the World;" Henry B. | Walthall, a superior screen player who has starred in scores of notable ; photoplays; Lillian Gish, who is well- j known to theatergoers throughout j the country, and George Fawcett, an i actor of national fame. Other artists ; in the cast are Gloria Hope, Maxs- j field Stanley, Rosemary Theby and j George Seigman. In addition to the players men- i tioned, many notable women of I England's highest society will be seen j themselves, not impersonators. They i include the Dowager Queen Alex- j indria, the Princess of Monaca, the ' Countess of Masserene, Lady John Lavery. the Countess of Droghda, Lady Diana Manners, daughter of the Duke of the Rutland; Elizabeth Asquith and many others. It is safe to say that so notable an array of celebrities never has been presented on the screen thus far. "The Great Love" is the first big Griffith production to be presented for the first time in any city for less than opera prices.

PAXTANG PARK THEATER Vaudeville Specialties. The layout of the vaudeville bill for the closing week at the Paxtang Park suggests a bill that will | Piixtnng make the park theater's Park many patrons regret that Theater the final week has ar rived. The bill will be headlined by the Three Anderson Girls, in what is de scribed by a well-known critic as a melange of classy singing and spec- , tacular dancing. The act has made , a very favorable impression wher- | ever it has appeared and should make t a pleasing headline!- for the park bill. | The Three Mori Brothers, one of the • cleverest Japanese troupes touring j this country at present, will also be a i feature of the new bill at Paxtang. | The Moris not only do clever acrobatic : stunts, but their act is made a riot of ) color by the gorgeous Oriental cos- | tumes worn.
