The bill was among the best of the season and was loudly -applauded by the de-- lighted audiences. The five Kitamuras proved the big attraction on the vaudeville bill. They have a Japanese offering that took mighty well with the audiences. Their stage setting and gowns were beau- tiful and the act was well presented from start to fifiish.

It is certalply rignt that we should be prepared against any hostile at- tacks upon the honor, liberty and even the wealth of our country.. But what i€ the underlying purpose and otive; what is ihe ground of appeal? - Are we slmply trying to protect curselves from sharing in any way the burden which the war has forced on the rest of the world. Or are we pro- tecting ourselves in order that we may be of greater service to mankind and especially to those nations which have felt most the tribulaticns of the war? The {dea t we are to protect cur- selves, our rights, our honor, our !lib- erty, our weaith in order that we may thereby better serve the. interests of humanity may seem a fantastic one, but is there not sometning ignoble, something you do not altogether like in the picture of America, strong, prosperous, abundantly blessed, plan- ning in her strength to take every pos- sible advantagc of the weakness of the other nations: can we truly thank God that we are able to do. this: that we, being in fuli health and vigor, can take advantage of those other nations when they arise like weakened convalescents from what seems now their death agony? If we felt assured that all our plans for. our/ own .protection were meant to be not for our own benefit alone but for all mankind then indeed we could render unfeigned thanks to the God of all men. Almighty Dollar and America. A popular-English writer in a.recent novel puts these words into the lips of one of his characters, a young Ameri- can woman: “In the eyes of all the world the Almighty Dollar may seem to rule America--but every thinking American knows.in his heart of hearts that the Almighty Dollar is but an ac- vcidental symovol of the Almighty Soul of man.
