HEAPING, APIilfi 10, 1918 WE ARE IN IT Dispatches to the News Times show that the American troops are sow in the thick of the fighting in France, and they arc acquitting themselves with credit. As fighters, they have proved themselves aggressive and persistent, and have more than held their own against all German assaults. To Americans at home and on the liaftle, ground the big fact is that our soldiers are at last definitely a part of the fighting force to which must be added the certainty that within a few months an army of probably 500,000 men will have joined the first contingent to stand shoulder to shoulder with French Foihis and British Tommies, sharing dangers, glories and death with thorn in one common cause.

For a year we have looked forward to this. Now the fact is here. American expeditionary men are actually engaged in the war's greatest battle and will take their part in all future engagements. Expectations has at last become experience. We are in the war in the true sense.

American lives are thrown into the spectacle. American hopes are higher. American suffering is about to begin. For almost four years we have sympathetically shared the woes of Europe. Now sympathy for others is enlarged by our own actual experience.

POTATOES Potato flour is coming rapidly into use in bread making in England and the London Times sees a possibility that orders will be issued soon making its mixture with other brcadstuffs a compulsory measure, in certain districts at least. When flour is being milled at a high percentage and bread is noticeably darker in consequence, potatoes, it is declared by British bread making authorities, would (iy much improve both the consistency and appearance of this war bread. Where the admixture has made, it has found general favor with the people, both in bakers' bread and that made at home. The Hackney bakers, it is reported, are using about 20 tons of potatoes in their bread in a single month. The greatest difficulty in England at the present time in regard to potato flour is its scarcity because of the lack of machinery for its manufacture.

This is being supplied as rapidly as possible. Figures issued by the British Food Production Department in connection with a plea for the largest possible potato production this year, show that nothing grown commonly', in England yields so much human food per acre. It has been discovered that in England an area of 100 acres planted in potatoes will provide food value sufficient to'maintain 400 persons for a year, while the same area of wheat will be sufficient for 230 persons; of barley 180 persons; of oats 150 persons; and in medium grass for the production of beef would supply but 15 persons. NATIONAL EFFICIENCY It is generally admitted that the Cerman people are the most efficient in the world. Everything they attempt is carried out with a thoroughness that does not exist in our national life.

It is a big question for us here in our home community how far we are securing efficiency in our industrial educational and municipal organization. We shall not attempt to turn daily life into military discipline. Our peo "7 w. ple can not be ordered around by anl autocratic authority like so many submissivme nlals. Democracy will have'to find some otSier way of promoting efficiency.

Intensely as we abhor the German ideas it has been admitted that they have promoted national efficiency by a superior educational system. We may detest German principles. But we have not to compete with them in the world, and we must not permit them to beat us iri any legitimate competition. Our young people have no conception of the way the German young folks are drilled through the schools. It is a disgrace there for a student to fail to get high marks.

The pressure applied to school children is so severe that there are many suicides among the pupils. It can readily be believed under tho German system, that the chil dren leave school with a better scholastic equipment than is given in this country. The highly centralized authority' would not tolerate the poor schools that exist in many of our localities. German boys not fitted for literary study would be assigned to more technical tasks. But whatever they undertook would be well and thoroughly done.

What can we do in our country to secure equally thorough work, without resorting to the harsh severities of the German system? PROFITS You're on the way" to raise all you can this year, of everything from peas to pork. You know you can sell everything you raise, at much better than average prices. You know that by, the end of you will be better off than you ever were before. How' much depends largely on how hard you work and plan from today on. Liberty Bonds offer absolutely the best investment for your proceeds.

They come easy because you can pay for them in instalments. They pay good rate of interest. They are safe beyond question, in years to come they will be worth more than they cost. This is true of every bond the United States Government ever Issued. Don't sell the Liberty Bonds you own now.

Every attempt you make to sell them lowers the price. Keep what you have, save to buy more; salt down every cent you can rake together in Liberty Bonds and in years to come you will be backed up by the best investment in the world, earning interest for you every minute without the turn of a hand on your part. TABLOIDS It is denied that the German government does not value the common people, as their dead bodies are mighty convenient to use to cross rivers on. Pome of the people who whizzed around corners in their automobiles last year in order to save a few seconds of time, are paying for it this year in higher liability insurance rates. The people who are trying to conserve wasted resources should think up some means of getting the congressional oratory applied to the sale of Liberty Bonds.

TO BRIGHTEN THE DAY Cause for Fc ar Peggy was a pupil in a school where an epidemic of measles was raging and she finally succumbed to the disease. All went well, however, and nt the end of a fortnight she was quite able to return to school. But the mere suggestion of going back to school was received with consternation. Peggy didn't want to return; in fact, she was panicky over the thought, "Why is it, Peggy, that you don't want to go back to school?" questioned her mother, Peggy answered: "Because the teacher is going to burn me up in the furnace." "What do you mean, Peggy dear? Tell me," demanded the puzzled parent. And Peggy said: "Well, she said that after any one had been absent three days she would drop them from the register." Cause for Jubilation "It's five years ago today and I'm going to celebrate mv wouldn't wedding." "Wouldn't wedding? Wooden, you mean!" "No wouldn't.

Five years ago I asked a girl if she'd marry me, and she said she wouldn't!" CROSSED THE ANPKS BY AIHPLANE TRY ASSOCIATED PRESS CABLE BUENOS AIRES, April 15.

RAJAH THEATRE "The Boomerang." Described as the best light comedy that has been produced in years, "The Boomerang" will come to the Rajah Theatre this evening. When this play the joint work of Winchell Smith and, Victor Mapes, was first produced by David Belasco at the New York theatre bearing his name, it rwas recognized by all classes and conditions of theatregoers as being absolutely irresistible in its faithful though highly amusing picture of leisured American life. The comedy played to a succession of crowded houses at the Belasco Theatre for fifteen months, then en Joying an engagement of eight months at Powers' Theatre, Chicago. It then went to Boston, where it crowded the Tremont Theatre for ten weeks. "The Boomerang" comes here with the same superb cast that has been identified with it ever since the date of its first presentation, and will be played by such leading and popular artists as Arthur Byron, Martha Hedman, Wallace Eddinger, Ruth Shepley, Gilbert Douglas, Kath ryn Keys, Mary Elizabeth Forbes, Richard Malchien, John Clements and John N.

Wheeler. 7 "Love Forbidden."

TIMES, READING, TUESDAY MORNING, HIPPODROME An excellent bin, with plenty of variety, music and entertaining comedy is given Hippodrome visitors in the program for the week's first half. The headline feature is Larry Reilly's "The Minstrel of Kerry," a romantic Irish drama in one act, with Larry Kelly, "a broth of a boy" In love or war, as the central figure in a cast of nine people. The play, which includes many musical features at appropriate intervals, recalls the days when British land aggressions and the oppression of the people in Ireland were production of constant trouble, and Larry Reilly, in the role of the fugitive from the redcoats, known also as "Rory O'Moore, the Minstrel," is the chief character in an interesting love story, with Grace Allen in the'rqje of Eileen Condon, daughter of the British general in the district who is hunting Rory to hang him. The scenic setting is beyond description and presents the loveliest bit of Irish mountain and lake that has ever been pictured on canvas. The time of the play is near midnight, with a party in progress on the widoy O'Moore's modest grounds in Killarney.

The curtain rises on a group of Irish girls, every one a vision of beauty, around the wishing well as the hour for the romantic test to determine their future husbands arrives. the Days of the Kerry Dancing," 1 "Mother Machree" and other familiar Irish songs, an Irish reel and other features of a party on the soil of the Emerald Isle are in the act, one that is thoroughly enjoyable. Mr. Reilly has a splendid voice and a fine stage presence. R.

B. Loftus takes the part of General Condon in fine style. The girls are beautifully costumed. Willard and Wilson, blackface comedians, in "The Crime Hunters," detective and would be detective, respectively, have an offering that produces a laugh every second and keeps the house in an uproar throughout the act. Joe Willard assumes the part of "Dewey Ketchem" and at his "detective college" he undertakes to teach (Billy Wilson how to detect.

The pupil learns eo fast that he "lifts" the professor's roll and the latter pays tribute, to him in no uncertain language. "Now I knows you is a real detective," he declares when his pupil gets his cash. Joe Cook, the "one man vaudeville show7' is a big attraction all by himself and does over a score of stunts, musical, sleight of hand, acrobatic, singing, even scene shifting and playing the orchestra, all by himself. Hippodrome crowds on Monday gave him a great "hand" and the act deserves all the applause that could be given it. Burk Brothers, comedy acrobats, open the show and present a series of feats, many difficult, all amusing, in a way that wins a great reception for the act.

They are princes in the world of comedy and combine, skill and fun in a most entertaining way. "Dancers from Danceland" Jewett and Pendleton, a male dancer and girl partner, who have a most artistic offering, a succession of new ideas In terpsichorean art, with a very delightful musical setting. Toto, the New York Hippodrome Theatre clown, appears in the pictures in "A One Night Stand," this famous screen comedian's funniest and liveliest screen offering to date. COLONIAL Anniversary week at the Colonial opened auspiciously yesterday, when big audiences attended the showing of the latest W. S.

Hart Artcraft production, "The Tiger Man," the most stirring of all western dramas that the eminent actor has thus far appeared in, under the remarkable direction of Thomas Ince. The theatre was tastefully decorated with innumerable plants and evergreens, and massive vases of roses and flowers presented a veritable floweral display. Effective illuminations during the intermissions added brilliancy to the beautiful theatre, while a special augmented orchestra rendered the musical selections, including the overture, "March Slave," by Tschaiowsky. An interpolated surprise was sprung on the audience when a soloist sang the new Liberty loan song, "What Are We Going to Do for Uncle Sam?" the big audiences joining in the appropriately written Depicting a character of the West with the requirements of which he is so thoroughly familiar, and which is bound to accentuate his fame as perhaps the foremost of time in strenuous Western characterizations, it is needless to mention that W. S.

Hart carried his enthusiastic audience with him In his vivid, fascinating portrayal of Hawk Parsons, in "The Tiger Man." The plot unfurls a powerful story of the desert in the days of the gpld rush, and its development is dramatic and thrilling to a great degree. Hawk Parsons is a typical Hart role, and yet wholly different in conoeptlon and treatment. Outlaw and a leader of desperadoes, Parsons and his pals make the desert their headquarters. When a wagon train comes to grief within Hawk's district, and the young and pretty wife of a preacher appeals to Hawk for aid, the developments come thick and fast. Just how the Tiger man is regenerated by a pious woman, for whose sake he makes a great sacrifice, is interestingly told, keeping the, spectators in extreme suspense until the final fade out.

W. S. Hart is at his best in the role of Parsons, while the individual characterizations of Jane Novak, Milton Ross and the popular character ac 'tor. Charles French. Benjamin Chapin, "Under the Stars and Stripes," the final Instal ment of the "Son of Democracy" series, the Hearst Pathe Daily News and a Mr.

and Mrs. Sidney Drew comedy complete the program. At Fifth nd Penn street on the semaphores is a nervine flag with four stara.

ARCADIA Capacity, to such an extent, that crowds were kept standing in line through the big lobby at the Ar was the interest created by "The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin," upon its Initial presentation yesterday. It was predicted that Arcadia box office records would be shattered, as real Americans would be anxious to view this intimate study of the life of this demon of rulers, but the audiences yesterday were so great that special morning matinees will be offered beginning today and continuing: for the balace of the week.

It is the desire of the management that every person In Reading see this great photoplay success. The audiences applauded and cheered time and again, as the tension, of the action stirred them on. When the little Belgian youth hurled the horseshoe at the officer of the Huns, when the Blacksmith of Louvain protected his daughter, when the Officer of the Imperial Guards actually slapped the kaiser, but this demonstration was but trifling to the terrific applause and enthusiasm that followed when Ambassador Gerard appeared; when President Wilson and his Cabinet declared war for the sake of Democracy, and finally when America as one man responded to the President's call, and miles and miles of troops were seen advancing on the double quick to the assistance of France and Great Britain. If there are those who are skeptical concerning the outcome of America's interest in. this great war, go to the Arcadia and witness "The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin." Rupert Julian who portrays William of Hohenzollern so faultlessly', conceived the story welded together a series of dramatic episodes that actually occured in the kaiser's private life, showing the Inside of the German Embassy, the kaiBer's evidences of personal ambition, his ruthless disregard save everything but military prestige; his action in the Lusltanla affair; the young commander receiving the royal honors, and finally, the same commander going mad with remorse, because of his assistance in murdering innocent women and children.

The scenes of Marcus, the blacksmith of Louvain, and his endeavor to protect his family, are heart stirring to the utmost. The picture starts out depicting I'eace, with all its serenity, showing beautiful pastoral scenes in Belgium, a happy wedding ceremony, romance, children at play and then suddenly like a bolt from out of the sky, the German army with the Iron heel, crushes little Belgium with atrocities that wiped out families, villarges and towns. The scenes of the German Court, views of the kaiser's vanity, his withered arm, and countless other mannerisms of the war maddened monarch, all based upon fruits and incidents true to the kaiser's own private and public life. Rupert Julian's portrayal is so thoroughly convincing that one forgets they are looking at the actor, and that the kaiser's own personality is continually parading before them. Elm Lincoln, as the blacksmith, Jess W.

Girard, as "Ambassador Gerard," the characterizations of General Joffre, Pershing and Haig, are all wonderfully effective in this great picture. The closing scenes will appeal to everyone, and shows how much America means in the outcome of the world's great struggle for supremacy. The music, especially the patriotic numbers rendered by Organist Henke and Violinist Lyssing ton, had a great deal'to do with the effectiveness of the action on the screen.
