AMERICANS.JUST HAD TO HAVE THAT CANDY (By United. Press.) Paris, Dec. 10. (By Mail.)—They edged up in front of the canteen counter of a Y. M. C. A. hut at Aix- les-Bains and demanded 'candy, two privates just back from Luxembourg. “Something that lasts,” one of them said, and displayed disappoint- ment because there weren’t any all- day suckers. Each bought the maxi- mum amount that may be sold to any one soldier, " Presently they were back again, this time coming a little more avarily, but with the’same determination in their « eyes. Again they wanted candy, a lot of candy. ‘“Mother” An~ derson with the red triangle on her arm and known to every soldier who has ever been on .leave at Aix-les- Bains, came up to explain why no more sweets could be sold. to them. The two soldiers looked heart-broken. “But we gotta have it, Ma'am,” exclaimed one of them. Then they told her why. Almost a day’s travel from Aix-les-Bains they had come upon a little school house, The little French ‘children, taught by an old man, had trooped out and had saluted the American soldiers. They were the first chil- dren the boys has seen in months. Now they wanted to go back and take the youngsters some candy. They had permission from their officers and the only thing, that they lacked was the candy. “We gotta go,” they said again. “We told the kids we'd come back with some candy for them. We said it in English but they got us all right. We promised. Please sell it to us, Ma’am.” They got it, of course. Then they set off casually on their errand, just two plain American’ privates, gladly giving up two days of their precious leave so that the little French chil- dren they had seen but once before might have some candy—hard candy, something that lasts.

Her own mother had just stolen five thousand dollars from Steele Min- turn, the man she loved; she had ex- tracted a tearful confession from her mother; in her effort-to return the money to Steele in his bedroom acress the hall she had awakened him.

And what would it bring her? e There will also be shown an. L-Ko comedy. “LEST WE FORGET.” Tomorrow and Friday at the Rex theater will be shown that great eight-act de lux Metro spectacle “Lest “We- Forget,” starring the French actress; Rita Jolivet, survivor of the ill-fated liner Lusitania, de. stroyed at the hand of a German sub- marine. 7 This great eight-act production: provides a mighty ' panorama of events now historical, connected with the opening days of the war, and*fol- lows its progress through the:later thrilling months. A beautiful love story ‘shines’ like a star through the darkness, the roar of battle some- times seeming like a mighty accom- paniment to the human drama being played. Many Americans unable to go abroad and engage in actual fight- ing or works of -mercy -have wished they might see with their own eyes a part of what has been going.on in Europe since August, 1914, “Lest We Forget,” shows far more of actual events abroad during the great strug- gle of decency against barbarism than any one -person;-whether coms- batant, or non-combatant, could pos- sibly see. Besides being a great love story, it is a valuable chronicle of the war. Popular prices will prevail for this great feature, matinee and nights, ;vith the evening runs at 7:20 and 110, GRAND PROGRAM.

There is a very delightful love story running throughout ‘‘Prisoners of the Pines,”” while the comedy ele- ment is always well to the fore. Lois Wilson has the principal fem- inine’ part. A comedy is also on the program tonight and tomorrow. ELKO TONIGHT.

Bring Back Ms Natural Color, Gloss and Attractiveness. Common garden sage brewed into a heavy tea with ‘sulphur-added; will {turn” gray, streaked and faded hair beautifully dark and luxuriant. - Just a few applications will prove a revel- ation if your hair is fading, streaked or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at home, though, is troublsome. An easier way. is to-get a 50-cent bottle of Wyeth’s Sdge and ’Sulphur Compound at any drug store Iall ready for use. This is the old time recipe improved by the addition of other ingredients. While wispy, y, faded hair is not sinful, we all desire to retain our youthful "appearance and attractive- ness. By darkening your hair with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound, no one can tell, because it does it so naturally, so evenly. You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw thig through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning all gray hairs have disap+ peared, and, after another application or two, your hair becomes-beautifull idark, glossy, soft and luxuriant. This preparation is a delightful toilet requisite and is not intended | for the cure, mitigation or prevention ‘of disease; THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER TONIGHT, ONLY GERMAN SAILOR TELLS HOW' IT HAPPENED FOR PEACE (By United Press.)
