Itll"l WASHINGTON JVIary Roberts Rinehart, author of Marguerite Clark's latest Paramount production, "Bab's Matinee Idol," which is to appear at the Washington today and Thursday matinee, has had one of the most varied and interesting careers of any modern author. She was born at Pittsburgh, Pa., where she spent her early life and attended public and high school and later a Nurses Training school. Just as an outlet for some of the surplus energy and restlessness that has characterized her whole career. 'The Circular Staircase," "The Man in Lower Ten," "When a Man Marries," "K" and "The Adventures of Letltia Carberry" are only a few of her stories, the latest of which have been published in the "Saturday Evening Post" as well as ia book form. The "Bab," the SubDeb" stories are now being arranged for the screen by Director J. Searle Dawley for Paramount, starring Marguerite Clark. MURRETTE. "The Firefly of Tough Luck" will be at the Murrette today and Thursday. . ''Tough Luck" Baxter, returning from a prospecting trip, meets "Happy Jack" Clarke, a former citizen of Baxter City, which "Tough Luck" discos, ered and which bears his name. A game of cards decides Clarke to go back "to "Tough Luck" with Baxter, in search of ore. . The Firefly, a New York music hall entertainer out of a job, is ordered by her parasite husband to go to the dance hall in Baxter City. Upon her atrival, she finds the town deserted, and strikes out on the open trail. Overcome by the desert, she is rescued and brought back to Baxter City by Dany Ward, a former Yale athlete. "Tough Luck." Clarke, Ward and The Firefly organize a family. Ward becomes infatuated with the girl and asks her to be his wife on the same night that her husband, Wilcox, arrives on tbe scene. Wilcox, up to his old tricks, loots the assayer's office and is caught, convicted and turned out of town. Firefly shows her real make-up by accompanying her guilty husband. They are followed by the three men, who come upon Firefly in the desert, stripped of her canteens and money, Wilcox having left her to die from thirst. Wilcox is killed by rattlesnakes in the desert, and the girl, with Danny and ti3 companions, returns to Baxter City, now "Good Luck" instead of "Tougb Luck;" On The Boards MURRAY. That the women of this country can do their bit, even while staying at home, can be gleaned from the Triangle play, "For Valour," at the Murray theatr tonight and Thursday. Melia Nobbs' brother was a slacker. When Canada called for its beet men to volunteer, Henry Nobbs did not come forward. To 'Melia, who loved her brother more than anything else in tbs world, this was a crushing blow. She looked upon Henry as sort of a Greek god and felt sure he would be among the first to offer his services. How 'Melia does her bit by making Henry volunteer and the sacrifice she is forced to make are soul-stirring episodes of this Triangle play featuring Winifred Allen. ' K WASHINGTON. What promises to be one of tbe season's brightest musical attractions comes to tbe Washington Thursday night, with Frederick V. Bowers,. the clever comedian, in the stellar role.

Committee on Nursing, of the Council of National Defense, Says Opportunities Are Many at Home and Abroad. ' What can a registered trained nurse do for her, country -today? Thousands of nurses are asking this qnestion. Thousands of young women who instinctively turn to nursing as an opportunity for national service are also asking it. The things a trained nnrse can do, according to the Committee on Nursing of the Council of National Defense, are so many, so varied and Important, that nursing stand out preeminently as the profession in which an adequately trained woman can find an outlet for her patriotic impulses. The first picture that flashes into the mind is that of the war nurse on the other side. The chairman of the Red Cross War Council states that 20.000 nurses will in all probability be needed to care for the cick and wounded of the American army in France. Under efficient medical care and nursing over 80 per cent of these are returned to active duty. These do not include those who will be called upon to help nurse the soldiers of our allies as well as their stricken civilians. Our allies are sorely in need of public health nurses, trained in social service in this country. Regardless, however, of this call from "over there," America needs an army of public health nurses to safeguard its own noncombafants and to aid in the disease prevention work in The kaiser failed to "shoo off" the photographers on is recent dipk matic visit to Turkey and his censors failed to prevent the photographs from coming through to this country. The accompanying photo is unique. It duced by Perry J." Kelly and Robert Campbell. Mr. Bowers was a member of the all-star cast of "The Ham Tree," with Mclntyre and Heath, and was the star of "My Cinderella Girl" and other musical successes. He is a comedian of high merit and his method of laughmaking is given full sway in the excrutiatingly funny situations provided in the plot of his latest vehicle. As is customary with him, he has surrounded himself with a supporting cast of exceptional merit, including the Duane twins; Alma Youlin, the prima donna; Harry Lilliford, John A. Curtis, Clarice Gray, Belle Court, Birdie Ross, Mazie Capper and innumerable pretty girls who can sing and dance. The company carries its own symphony orchestra. THREE MEN ENLIST IN THE NAVY HERE Three men enlisted at the Navy recruiting office Wednesday and will

our training camps. Tuberculosis, for instance, is a foe which will sap the strength of the army and undermine civilian life if it is not controlled. The tuberculosis nurse has the double duty of helping to care for the men rejected from the national army on account of consumption and of helping to detect the disease in its incipiency among the families she visits. The welfare of children is tremendously important. The public school nurse, a growing necessity before the war, is now indispensible it we are to live up to bur responsibilities as a nation at war faced with the necessity of conserving our every resource. The welfare of toe babies depends on enlightened mothers. Upon the pre-natal work of the visiting nurse depends largely the enlightenment of the mothers. During the Civil War 48 per cent., of the Union troops came from country districts. The proportion will probably not be so high during this war, but men from the country are locking into-the army and will continue to be called. Rural public health nurees are therefore finding work in their home field today, just as they are finding work in the army cantonments to

Emergencies, such a the frequent epidemic of pneumonia, call for heroic work by these nurse. Nor must we neglect to mention th openings in tbe teaching field among cur 8,000 hospitals and 1,500 school! of nursing, which have many attractive openings in their faculties for well educated nurses. The demand are so many and the needs o pressing that the Committee on Nursing of the Council of Na tional Defense urges young women graduates of colleges and high schools to enter hospital training schools and study for the nursing profession as a patriotic duty. It reminds them, however, that no short term courses or correspondence school methods will admit them to the Red Cross ranks as registered nurses. The only way is via the recognized hospital schools of nursing, where the course of studf and practical work covers from two to three years. At its office in Washington, D. C. the committee will be glad to answer any mail inquiries on this opportunity for patriotic service was just before the British drive on the Turks saw the fall of Jerusalem. The Oppressor of Humanity and his arch-ally and moslem partner discussed the further destruction of human rights and the kaiser attempted to hearten the failing Turks. New Orleans newspapers report that a district court judge in that state has declined to become a candidate for a vacant position on the supreme court bench, one of his reasons being that it would cost him $10,000 to make the race.
