There will be no adhission charged and no col- lection will be taken. The picture opens with the birth of the Red Cross on the battlefield of Solferino in 189, Its srowth to the present day 1s_quickly bridged. It hows how the Red Cross cares for the oldiers with its canteen servica on his way to camp, and looks after him when he' gets there. It shows how the Red Cross feeps in touch with his family, giving assistance where need- ed. It shows how.the cable is used to link the soldier at the front with loved ones at home. 4 . The work of the Red Cross trans- poct man is depieted. The activities of the chapter work rooms are touched upon and a graphic idea is given of the enormous scale upen whkrth the work is conducted. The picture takes up the stirring service of tHe Red Cross coetars and nurses in the battle zones, and many of the seenes were taken in the midst of shot and shell The picture will enable Madame de Turezynowicz to elaborate upon tht same theme with facts and figures which do not lend themselves to the sereen, POLICE ARREST FIVE IN-THAMES STREET RAID The local police on Mopday even- ing raided the house at 123 Thames street and arrested five negroes. Wil- liam Mayfield was charged with be- ing the proprietor of a disorderly house and Charles Mitchell, Tony De- barros, Josephine Hall and Corinne Wiisen were charged with being fre- {quenters of the place. The quintétte was ° somewhat intoxicated when brousht to the station house. DAVIS THEATRE As a war spectacle, throbbing with human interest and vibrant with pa- triotic_fervor, “Private Peat,” the great Paramount-Artcraft special pic- fure which was shiawn at the Davis theatre Menday, has few, if amy, su- meriors. It is; a’ photaplay of timely interest, not to speak of its stirring heart appeal. The picture is based upen the story written by ™Mr. Peat and which has met with a_wide sale all over the country. Mr. Peat hi self played the leading-role and smile, of which he speaks in_ his fa- mous' lecture, “T'wo Years in Hell and Back With a Smile,” is constantly in evidence. The story, aside from fts theme, is absorbingly intaresting and many of the scenes of war are ex- ceedingly realistic. The second feature of the hill is a five-part Triangle film.
