How Uncle Sam Is
Getting Crews For
New Tank Fleets
AT THE THEATERS
San Francisco, Cal., August SO
( Correspondence of the Associated
Press). Alert young Westerners of
unusual stamina and physique are
offered an opportunity to Join the
"Tankers," who will mrin the land
battleships of the t'nited States Army
overseas, throuch Lieutenant G. G.
Garland and Sergeant John A. Rode
mus. They are recruiting for the
service and now are in this city on a
final swing up the Pacific coast before
they leave for France.
Lieutenant Garland will visit Sacra
mento Friday, August 9. before leav
ing San Francisco the following day
for Fortland, Ore., where he will carry
forward recruiting work from August
12 to 17. inclusive. He will be at
Seattle from August 19 to 2S.
One thousand men will have been
enlisting on the Pacific coast for the
tank service by the end of this month
according to estimates by Lieutenant
Garland.
The "tankers" were organized early
this year as a branch of the army
engineer corps but now have a (lis
tinct organization including l,p,000
men in training at Camp Colt, Gettys-
burg, Pa., and at camps in England
and France.
"Treat em rough" is the solgan of
the corps, and the title of its official
magazine. Cheerful, wide-awake men
without "nerves" are sought by the
recruiters who said special knowl
edge of guns or motors was not essen
tial. The rough and ready typo of men
who are joing the corps, Lieutenant
Garland said, is shown in one of their
popular songs:
"We'll give them all the hell that
Yankee boys can give
"And any place our tanks will go It
wont be safe to live.
"We'll show them how the Yankee
boys go out to face a fight;
"We'll comb their bloody German
hair with Yankey dynamite."
Recruits for the "Tanker Tom-cat
corps," as it is known because of the
custom of adopting cats as mascots,
must be of the highest physical stand
ard. Stamina and a real desire to
fight are required, Lie-uk-nant Garland
asserted.
The recruiting is being assisted by
the Military Training Camps Associ
ation, which also Is directing the en
listment of civilians for the army offi
cers camp now being held in various
parts of the United States. No ar
rangements for tank corps recruiting,
other than that afforded by the pres
ent tour of Lieutenant Garland and
Sergeant Rodemus, has yet been made
Lieutenant Garland said.

Junk For Savrag
Stamp Campaign
Cheyenne, Wyo., August 30 (Asso
ciated Press) Through the suggestion
of the Chamber of Commerce at Doug
las machinery has been put in motion
in Wyoming to save a vast amount
of waste material that may be util
ized by the government for war pur
poses and at the time increase the
sale of war savings stamps. In every
county in the state. If the present,
zinc, lead, discarded machinery, rub
ber, rope and rags found in the back
yards and vacant lots of the cities
and on the farms will be collected
chiefly by boys and girls and assembl
ed at railway stations. Buyers will
visit each county on specified dates
and in taking over the material will
make payments in thrift stamps.
Governor Frank L. Houx and Sen
ator W. C. Irvine, 3tate chairman of
the 'war savings stamp committee,
have approved the plan and will as
sist in carrying It out. Senator
Irvine, through his county chairmen in
the twenty-one counties in the state,
will co-operate by sending a personal
representative to each county with
enough helpers to handle all of the
material that may be offered for sale.
Governor Houx has called on all citi
zens to help in the movement. It Is
hoped by those in charge to sell at

stamps, in addition to getting the
material where it will be of use to
the government.
SELLING CALVES FOR
RED CROSS FUND
Talare, Calif., August 30 (Associ
ated). Live stock auctions, which are
frequent in this section during the
spring and summer months have be
come the chief source of revenue for
the Talare chapter of the American
Red C10S3 and made it one of the most
prosperous chapters in the smaller
cities in America, with a cash balance
on hand at the end of July of $11,
818.74. At an auction early in the spring
a rancher gave one of his calves to
be sold for the benefit of the Red
Cross and the animal was eold several
times over, bringing in several
' hundred dollars to the war relief or
ganization. The habit soon became
common and since that time one or
more animals have been sold for war
relief each week in this vicinity.
As a part of the Fourth of July
celebration, which was held here un
der the auspices of the Red Cross,
the chief feature was a live stock
auction with animals donated by the
dairymen of the surrounding country,
and a total of $6,207.59 was .realized.
During the Third Liberty Loan cam
paign in the city, one day was set
aside for the Portuguese colony, which
is numerous, an.i large ly engaged in
dairying in this section. As a part of
the days events the Portuguese ranch
ers held an auction of live stock at
which $2,000 was raised and this was
given to the local Red Cross chapter.
George Beban in
One More American"
In "One More American," George
Dobnn plays the fort of character he
has been most successful in delineat
ing that of an Italian.
In "One More American," Lulgi
Riccardo, George Beban, is tho pro
prietor of the little Marionette Thea
ter, typical of the Latin Quarter of
New York. One of his fondest hopes
is to become an American citizen and
tiring his family from Italy. Due to
the success of his business he has
been able to send for his wife and
children and his little home is prepar
ed in gala array to receive his loved
ones.
A political boss called Regan has
been opposed by Luigi, who has suc
ceeded in winning over many of his
votes from the Latin Quarter. He
seeks revenge and fixes it with the
immigration officials "so that Luigi's
familv may not be admitted to the
United States. The plot is discover
ed and most exciting developments
occurr, in which Sam Potts, a report
er who has been injured by Regan,
plays an important part.
Beban in supported by a strong com
pany in this picture, which is almost
tragic in its pathos but which has a
very happy ending.
Douglas Fairbanks in
"Headin' South"
Douglas Fairbanks, athletic and
acrobatic film favorite, he of the in
tedious grin, playo the leading role
in the clever and unusual photoplay.
'Headin' South", which is one that
gives Fairbanks exceptional oppor
tunities; for his dare-deviltry and
athletic ability a well as for his nat
ural humor.
"Headin" South" is a thrilling tale
of two borders Mexican and Canad
lan dealing with the capture or a
notorious band of Mexicans who defy
all lews and governmental warnings.
FairLanks appears as a mysterious
character who trails his man from
Canada to Mexico and eventually
turns him ever to the authorities.
There is an undercurrent of mystery
that runs through the story, with a
strong element of suspense that is
maintained to the very last scene of
the picture.
Louis Glaum in
"Golden Rule Kate"
"Golden Rule Kate," has for its star
Louise Glaum, who plays most effect
ively the part of a "sage brush siren"
in a production that la full of most
unusual situations.
Louise Glaum appears as Mercedes
Murphy, known as "the sagebrush
hen," proprietress of a Western saloon
and dance hall, in the new Triangle
play, "Golden Rule Kate."
An evangelist opens a little church
in the Nevada mining town for the
purpose of cleaning up things, particu
larly "The Hen's" dance hall. When
the lady hears of his purpose she
sends one of her admirers, "The Hell
er," to rope the minister and drag
him from his pulpit in full view of the
congregation. The firm demeanor and
earnest manner of the sky-pilot concil
iated "Tho Hen," and she finally
agrees to attend church every Sun
day if he will tend bar in her dance
hall one hour each day. A new life
for the village and its despotic ruler,
"The Hen," developes from thl3 com
pact. Dustin Farnum in
"The Scarlet Pimpernel"
"The Scarlet Pimpernel," by Baro
ness Orczy, one of the "best seller"
of its time, has been adapted to the
screen and produced by William Fox,
with Dustin Farnum in the featured
role.
Full of action and stirring events,
this work of Baroness Orczy adapts
itself to the screen with all the vigor
which the story itself suggests. Dus
tin Farnum shines forth as an artist
in this, his first special production un
der the banner of Fox pictures. As
sisting Mr. Farnum in interpreting
tho action in this story are: Winni
fred Kingston, William Buress, Ber
tram Grassby, Bert Hadley, Howard
Gaye, Willard Louis and Jack Nelson.
Most, of the i-cenes are laid in France
during the time of the French Rev
olution. Sir Percy Blackeney is
known as "The Scarlet Pimpernel,"
and he is leader of a band of English
men who go to France to rescue con
demned French aristocrats. Chauve
lin, the Revolutionary chief, exerts ev
ery influence to discover the identity
of the fearless Englishman. He gets
information that Pimpernel is the
man and he attempts to coerce him
through his wife by threatening the
safety of her brother. The events
that follows the discovery that Pim
pernel i. the num who is making life
miserable for the revolutionary forces
serve as the foundation for some of
the best action ever transferred to
the screen of a theater. Advt.

NEW KIND OF ICE "CREAM"
London, August 30 Ice cream.
made without milk, cream or sugar
to comply with government regula
tions, has been all the rage this sum
mer at the soda fountains of London.
The recipe was conceived by an' Am
erican, Charles H. Boeglin, of New
York City, soon after the British gov
ernment prohibited early this year
the use of milk products or sugar in
the manufacture of ice cream.
Here's the way the mock Ice cream
is made: For a gallon of the Ice,
two-pounds of glucose or four pounds
of honey. If honey is used it should
be boiled down in a quart of water,
and before being poured Into the
freezer should be allowed to cool for
three or four minutes. Then add the
white of one egg and any flavor de
sired, and freeze. Fresh fruit adds
considerably to the flavor of the ice
which really tastes like ice cream.
In London, where even in summer
eggs have been worth about ten cents
eaot. the ice manufacturers use ths
powderfd egg :lbumeji instead of
egg.
U
flour substitutes and all meals and
breakfast foods. Goods bought in
sealed packages have been sterilized
during manufacture and need not be
sterilized again if the package has not
been broken or punctured.
Heating is done in the oven at a
temperature of 185 degrees F., and
should continue for 45 minutes. Be
careful not to overheat the'cereals.
RATS COSTLY EATERS
Experts have estimated that one
rat will consume 40 to 50 pounds of
food in a year. It has also been
figured that it requires the continu
ous work of about 150,000 men with
farms, agricultural implements, and
other equipment to supply the food
stuffs destroyed annually by rats in
the United States. In addition, rats
destroy other property, mainly of
agricultural origin, the production of
which require.-) the work of about 50,
Otto men. This gives a total of 200,
(100 men whose economic output is
devoted solely to feeding and other
wise providing for rats.

London, August 29 The average in
crease in the price of food on July 1,
1913 was two percent higher than
June 1, 1918 and 110 percent higher
than in July 1914. The principal ad
vance in June occurred in the case of
milk, eggs, butter and potatoes.
CHRISTIMAS GIFTS TABOO
Tl-e Coun?ii of National Defense
has pdvisefi that the practise ol
Christmas giving should bo discourag
ed and has therefore thrown a bomb
Into the camp of jewelers, druggists
and department stores. The reason
given is the saving of labor in the
manufacture of Christmas gifts and
the labor required to handle the
Christmas rush in retail stores, as
well as transportation congestion.
Members of families who are in the
habit of bestowing on each other un
necessary gifts are asked to invest
in war savings stamps or government
bonds instead.

the draft board in San Francisco, and
rather expected not to be able to
come back. His wife is a teacher at
the Haiku school, and Is at her desk.
Miss Hazel Pester and Miss Eva
Newman, teachers in the Haiku
school; and Miss Beatrice Webb, of
Pala, arrived from the coast on Wed
nesday evening. They had their book
ing canceled several times before
they finally succeeded in securing

H. M. Wells, principal of the Pala

place is being filled at Paia by Miss
Fleming, who comes from Hamakua
poko. Mrs. Louise Boyum is acting

school in place of Miss Fleming.
Tardy Teachers Docked
It is announced that old teachers
who returned late to their classes are
to be docked the time from Septem
ber 1 to the time they reported, but
that new teachers will be excused
from paying this penalty even if late
on account of boats. The reason
stated by the department for this
ruling is that teachers were urged not
to go to the coast, and warned that
they would have trouble in getting
back, and also that they must go at
their own risk if they insisted on go
ing.
