1 j " ' ; Jeopardizing life 7 The horror of the Iroquois theatre tragedy is within the memory of most of us." It took a frightful toll of human lives to arouse the American people to a need of proper restrictions regard

ing the theatre. The. Richmond city council in the : meantime has enacted ordinances intended to. safeguard persons attending the theatres and

moving picture houses of the, city. ; ; , One of the most essential factors in prevent

ing a stampede in case of an accident or a fire at a theatre or moving picture house is that the 'aisles and lobbies be clear so that the audience

will find all exits open and a ready means of

leaving in case of an accident.' , ., This section-of the ordinance has been ruth

lessly disregarded and shamefully, violated in

Richmond. Must scores of lives be sacrificed here before the city authorities enforce the ordi

nance?

Last night at the Murray, persons - had to fight their way out of the house, so closely was the lobby packed with persons trying to see the

next show. All the elements for a horrible trag

edy, were present. All that would have been re

quired was the cry of "fire" to bring death and injury to many. Avarice on part of the owner of the show jeopardizes many. The city authorities ought stop the practice at once, and O. G. Murray ought to take steps to see that no tickets are sold when .the seating capacity of his houro is exhausted.

Y r . ser Man 5 Mayor Mitchel of New York, who was one of the students at the United States Army training camp, recently held at Plattsburg, N. Y., has returned to his official duties not a sadder but a much Wiser man. Mayor Mitchel states that the' experience he and thirteen hundred other representative men of the, nation had at Plattsburg demonstrated to all of -them the absolute futility -of sending, untrained men into-the field to fight a seasoned enemy; exploded for them the farcical theory of the impossible Bryan' and' other "peace-at-any price' advocates that an efficient American army could be raised at any time between sunrise and sunset if necessity should demand.

The situation which confronts the United States at this time is truthfully outlined in George Lauferti's recent book "The United States and the Next War," previously comment

ed upon in these columns. Hr. Iauferti, sizing up the situation from the standpoint of a patriotic 'American cituen without prejudice for,- or against any of the belligerent nations, writes:

. , Never in the history of the world has the spirit of strife been abroad as it is today. - AH Europe is ablaze ; civil war rages in Mexico;

a sword of Damocles hangs perilously suspended

above the Balkans, ready, to drop and sever their cobweb of peace: ' " Italy,, fully armed, has cast her lot with the stronger of Europe's contending- factions as soon as she seemed sure of the fortunes of war. ' Holland nd Switzerland are armed to repel aggressions vwhich seem inevitable in this battle of he giants! : i - . Norway, .Sweden, Denmark have armed and allied to defend to the last their mutual, interests. Africa is'in arms. Revolt in India '-is imminently possible.

Turkey and 1 the Moslem world are : in v, the

throes of their death fight. . -

Japan, not content with participating in the

cancerous European conflict, , must needs seize this opportunity when the' civilized countries of the white world have thrown off their mantle of

Christian restraint and seek to solidify the Ori

ent into a real and tangible "Yellow Peril." For

under the guidance of Japan's cleverness and am

bitions Chinas. wealth and millions are a. power

to be reckoned with. We, the citizens of the greatest civilized pow

have two duties plainly before us. First the duty to ourselves, our homes, our country and our

sovereignty.,; : . i -, - ""- : ' ' -T

Second, and higher still, a duty to the white

people of the world. 1 ?

Engaged in internecine war, blinded by petty hates, passions and commercial jealousies, the

Caucasian race does not see the menace that im pends. ' f . '-. V, - '.-" , ,

Fully occupied .with their European wars,

England, France and Germany are not capable of

offering real resistance to Japanese aggression.

Exhausted by these same European wars,

England, France and Germany will not be able to

offer real resistance to Japanese aggression.

It remains for us alone to police the white world, to protect it, while our blood-brothers

fight among themselves, i And it will remain for

us alone to reorganize the white world into a unit

capable of defending itself after the frenzy of our people across the seas abates sufficiently to allow

us to help them bind up their wounds.

. It is not enough to decry the possibilities of

conflict with England or Germany. It is not en

ough to remain firm in the righteous belief that

the insults to our commerce and our flag, offered

alike by Germany and Britain, must be amicably

settled. - ''.'' '''-' '

It is not enough to turn the other cheek to Germany and to England, and to waitvuntil their

passions, cool before demanding the redress and

the satisfaction for the loss of lives and property

suffered at the hands of Powers .professing friendship which is our due. It is not enough to

rest content in our spienaia isolation, ' in our

ability to exist without foreign commerce.

-: We must arm and make ready to defend ourselves against possible . contingencies arising from a bloody European-victor carried away by

the god ot war and for the, moment irresistible.

We must arm and .make ready to defend our

selves against a chagrined people, defeated, but

not broken filled with a dull resentment

against our clumsy neutrality.

.But, most important of all, we must arm and make ready to defend ourselves against the

threatening Eastern hosts.

PLUNGES DOWN BANK 4 ECONOMY, Ind., Sept. 23. Harrison Johnson of Modoc, met with an accident -while driving an automobile north of Economy that he will not soon forget,. The car was running at a 20-mile speed' when a fresh strip of gravel was struck at a turn in the road. The steering gear broke and the car dashed down an embankment and through the fence) The car was not damaged, nor was Mr. Johnson injured.

To Put on Flesh

And Increase" Weight i A Physician's Advice.

' Most thin people eat from four to six pounds of good solid fat-making food every day and still do not increase in weight one ounce, while on the other hand many of the plump, chunky folks eat very lightly and keep gaining all the time. It's all bosh to say that this is the nature of the individual. It isn't Nature's way at all.. Thin folks stay thin because their powers of assimilation are defective. They absorb just enough of the food they $at to maintain life and a semblance of health and strength. Stuffing won't' help them. A dozen meals a day won't make them gain a single "stay there" pound. All the fat-producing elements of ther food just stay in the intestines until they pass from the body as waste. What such people need Is somthing which will prepare these fatty food elements so that their blood can absorb them and deposit them all about the body something, too, that will multiply their red blood corpuscles and increase their blood's carrying power. i For , such a condition I always recommend eating a Sargol tablet with every meal. Sargol is not, as some believe, a patented drug, but is a scientific combination of six of the- most effective and powerful flesh building elements known to chemistry. It Is absolutely harmless,; yet wonderfully effective and a single tablet eaten with each meal often has the effect of Increasing the weight of a thin man or woman from three to five pounds a week. Sargol is sold by Leo H. Fihe and other good druggists everywhere on' a positive guarantee of weight increase or money back. Adv. ,
