VISIT TO FRONT CHANGES VIEWS OF SOCIALIST Ben Tillett Favors Conscripm tion Says France Real " izes Ideals by Elimination of Classes. BY HERBERT TEMPLE. LONDON, July 7. Benn TJUett, the former Socialist leader, has eome back from a recent visit to the front a different man, convinced that England never had a higher duty to perform than to beat Germany, It seems strange that Tillett should have become , as ardent champion of conscription, -which Socialists all over the world have always been fighting against, but when I saw him the other day he said: "There were times when I actually felt almost ashamed of being an Englishman. When I noticed that nowhere In France, outside the military zone, do you see a single man below 48 or over 18, I realized the gigantic work France has. accomplished" Classes Eliminated. What specially struck this champion of equality of all men, was to see his ideal realized in France in the most practical manner. "There are no classes in France to day," he said. "It is the one absor lutely perfect democracy today. The whole nation has become one big fam ily, where all are brothers and where only one idea prevails to carry out the great common patriotic task. The French nation has certainly become rejuvenated." For three weeks he drove along the front from the Vosges to the sea in a powerful automobile placed at his disposal by the French government. "And, do you know," he exclaimed, ''who was my chauffeur? A simple private, who was proud of being a pri'

Vate. He was a son of the French senator, M. Sourdais." PERMITS BECKER TO LIVE LONGER

BY VIRGINIA TERHUNE VAN DE CHAPTER XLIII. (Copyright, 1915, Star Company.) It was late when John reached home that night Isabel wondered Idly at his tardy return. Then sha remember' ed that Ella Sanger lived down-town and that, although she had gone la a cab, she had undoubtedly dismissed this at her door. John bad probably walked a part of the way home. This solution of the matter seemed so natural that when he entered the bedroom two hours after his departure, she said sleepily: "I suppose ydu walked up-town to digest your dinner-didn't you?"

He hesitated only a moment before replying "Yes. I walked a part of the way home. I ate very heartily this evening, you know, and a walk helps to settle one's dinner. Your affair went off beautifully, my dear, and I like your friends the Ferrises very much." She was glad be was in such a genial frame of mind. Of late there was so often a coolness between them that she was glad when there was a point upon which they could agree and chat amicably. At breakfast the following "morning a change came to the condition that had prevailed the previous night. John wishing to maintain pleasant relations, referred approvingly to various incidents of the dinner, ending with "You looked very sweet, Isabel. I never saw : you appear more at ' ease or more charming." "Thank you," she said. "I was glad if I looked nice for I was conscious that I had on an old gown." "Old ! " he echoed. "Why it is quite new!" "It is a year old," she reminded him. "Moreover what makes a gown old is

not tha length Of time one has. bad it, but the number of times one has worn it in the presence of the same people. This my only good evening dress I wore to Mrs. Simmons' affair, tben to the Ferrl dinner, then to the dinner you gave to Mrs. Simmons, and again last night. Every one of those people who were here last night have seen me wear It .at least twice." "And I venture to believe that not one of the persons who have seen it ever knew you had it on before," he declared. "You are mistaken there," she said. "You can't prove that I am," he teased. "Yes, I can," she contradicted. "The night that Mrs. Simmons was here she remarked on the fact that I always wore that blue gown." John flushed. "Are you sure that she said exactly that?" he questioned searchingly. John Makes a Blunder In Discussing the Gown. "Something very much like it," she returned, still without any show of temper. "You exaggerate, Isabel," he reproved. "I happen to know that what Adelaide said was- meant in the kindest way, and that you misinterpreted it." "How do you know?'' still gently. "Because," the tactless man informed her, "Adelaide mentioned to me the fact that she evidently peeved you by something she said. She told me that she asked you if you wore blue because I was fond of it. and that you flashed out at her that that was your only evening gown; so ypu had to wear it. I did not mean to speak about this but since you brought up the subject I think- it only right that I

should explain what Adelaide meant." ! "I know what she meant," Isabel! said. There was a red spot in each '. cheek, still she maintained complete : control of herself. "I also rememebr her very words which were not those, she told you. It is strange" her tone I

was now redective "that she should complain to you of the way your wife addressed her in your home and mine. I can hardly understand her ethics. For myself, I should think that to discuss a wife with her husband was distinctly bad form." "I declare!" John brought his fist down upon the table with a bang, "for twisting situations to suit your own

fancies and Jealousies vou take the

cake! The truth of this whole matter was that Adelaide was worried at the thought that she had said something

io annoy you; so sne told me about It, and said she was sorry that you had taken amiss what she meant in all kindness, she also said" He checked himself. "What?" Isabel demanded. "Now that you have begun, you may as welj go on. What were you going to say? "She also said," continued luckless John, "that she was afraid you would never like her. Actually, Isabel you won't believe it, but it's true there were tears in her eyes when she said that" ' "Why?" the wife queried, as if curious to understand this phenomenon. "Why should she want me to care for her?" "Because she liked you. and. a she and I are friends, she was hoping that my wife and she might be good chums." Isabel Calmly Te( Him He Is Wrong. Isabel laughed a hard metallic little laugh. "My dear John." she said, "the only part of the sentence which appeals to me as true is that which . states that Mrs. Simmons is an old friend of yours. As to her wanting to be chummy with me-rl can. bardly. credit that. She has certainly gone the wrong way about it" ' "What do you mean?" "I mean," she explained, "that the woman who wants to keep on good terms with a man's wife, and is so much that wife's friend that she wants to keep the man on good terras with the women he has married, will not complain to that man about his wife's behavior and speeches. You, being a man, are too little versed in feminine tactics to appreciate this. I am not so easily duped. "You are certainly wrong!" he exclaimed hotly. "You do Adelaide Simmons an injustice. You do not understand her at all." "I hardly think I do her an injustice," she returned, still with exasperating calmness.. "And pardon me if I say I think that I understand her quite well." Her lack of emotion fanned his vexation to hot anger. "We will stop this discussion here and now!" he exclaimed. "What I said once before I repeat now and this time I mean it. I for bid you to mention Mrs. Simmons to me again. I will not have my friends sneered at and insulted." The spot in her cheeks became redder, and a gleam of anger came to her eyes, but her voice was steady. "I thank you for the interdict," sjie re plied. "And l promise to obey your orders. I shall not mention your friend, , Mrs. Simmons to you. again. Please remember that if my silence puzzles you in the future." To Be Continued. . SOCIAL POSTPONED.

It struck me as being one of the most forcible and Intelligent ways of putting this terrible problem before the public, and It is handled in the most judicious manner. I went rather prejudiced egalnst, and came away convinced of its usefulness. MRS. WILLIAM K. VANDERBILT, SR. Fully half of the girls committed here would now be happy in thtlr own homes, if your warning to parents was seen by all the mothers and fathers whose daughters had erred. Dr. E. HELEN KNIGHT, Physfcian-ln-Charge of the New York Magdalen Home. I consider the presentation of "The Inside of the White Slave Traffic" a public benefaction and so vastly superior to all ether pictures of Its kind that there is no comparison. ELLA WHEELER WILCOX. These pictures reveal facts which it is important should be known to the general public, and in a way which even the most sensitive person could find no sound objection. REV. JOHN HAYES HOLMES, Pastor of Church of the Messiah. There Is not an Immodest picture In the whole of the five acts. There Is not the remotest suggestlon of Indecency. It offers a tremendous warning to young people especially young girls REV. CHARLES F. AKED, D. D., LL. D. In presenting to the Richmond public this greatest of White Slave Traffic Pictures, the management desires to impress on the minds of Murray theatre patrons the fact that nothing like this picture has ever been exhibited. It is truth, all truth, and nothing but the truth, and has won the unani mous endorsement of ministers, social workers and the publie from coast to coast. A picture with a message and a meaning. A picture with a mission. A picture whose startling realism drives home with terrific force, a condition of our country that every man, woman and child should know about.
