Mme. Margarethe Arndt-Ober. NEW YORK CITY,, Feb. 4. A decision of importance to alien enemies who have been barred from the courts since. America entered the war has been .handed down by Supreme Court Justice Oavegan of New York in an opinion upholding the contention of Mme. Margarethe Arndt-Ober, prima donna contralto, that she has the right to maintain in court her $50,000 action against the Metropolitan Opera company for alleged breach of contract. She waB discharged because of existing war conditions. Justice Oavegan denied the company's motion for postponement of the trial until after the war on the ground that Mmee. Ober is a German subject. Not only does this decision open the courts to a large number of plaintiffs hitherto barred, but it paves the way for action by other opera stars discharged by the Metropolitan for similar reasons. These singers, who have been awaiting the outcome of Mme. Ober's case before instituting action, are Johannes Sembach, Carl Braum, Herman Weil, German, and Mme. Meltmie Kurt, Austrian. Their attorney, Benno Loewry, who also represents Mme. Ober, has announced he will institute damage suits on. their, behalf. "The trading with the enemy act provides that citizens of Prussia, such as the plaintiff, may be declared enemies by presidential proclamation," says the opinion. "In his proclamation of April 6, 1917, President Wilson declared that all German male subjects over fourteen, resident here, which obviously does not include the plaintiff, are alien enemies. But, he also declared, that 'so long as they shall conduct themselves in accordance with the law, they shall be untheir lives and occupations, and be acdisturbed in the peaceful pursuit of corded the consideration due to all peaceful and law-abiding persons.' "

ing of the board of managers of the Home of Friendless will be held next Monday instead of today as was an nounced at last meeting. The Aftermath club will meet tomorrow afternoon with Mrs. N. C. Heironimus at her home, 535 National road. The Domestic Science . association will meet Wednesday afternoon at the Westcott hotel. Miss Mary Ann Stubbs will give a paper on "Development of Day Nursery Movement." The Show-Me club will meet February 19 with Mrs. Charles Schnelle instead of tomorrow as was previously announced.

The monthly meeting ot the Aid society of Second English Lutheran

church will be held Thursday after-1

noon with Mrs. B. A. Bascher at her home, 101 Lincoln street. The Women's Knitting club of East Main S'reet Friends church will meet Tuesday afternoon with Mrs. E. G. Crawford at her home, 104 South Twenty-first street. Members of the Wayne Division, 303 auxiliary to the railroad engineers, met Friday afternoon with Mrs. IL W. Chrow at her, home. The afternoon was spent in sewing for the Red Cross. Aside from assisting this work last November, the auxiliary bought material, made and filled several kits which were sent to Wayne county eoldiers in France. Letters have been received from nearly all the men. Their letters are optimistic and they say that they are grateful for anything from home, even if nothing more than a postcard.

MURRETTE When Jackie, daughter of Colonel Kerwood. an army post commander, is' compelled by her father to disband her "Fighting Demons," a brigade of girls, she determines to run away and tecome a Red Cross nurse. - While in flight that night, she detects one of the officers acting suspiciously. She renounces her intentions of running away and determines to fathom the secret of an old house, into which she sees the officer disappear. She believes he is her sweetheart, Lieut. Adair. She searches his apartment for proof and finds a document that looks important. . It proves to be merely an advertisement for a home furnishing company. But her jealousy is aroused by thoughts of another sweetheart. WASHINGTON In spite of the expectations that we had of the new William Fox production, "For Liberty," that was shown this afternoon for the firBt time at the Washington theatre, the actual viewing o! the film was a delightful surprise. This new picture has a wonderful story to tell, and it is set in surroundings that are bound to be of utmost interest t( every American. Americans believe they had some idea of what was going on in Berlin at the time

that war was declared fcy the United States, but "For Liberty shows that our knowledge was of the most limited sort, and that we had no real insight into the Intrigues, and difficulties, and tragedies that, ww occurring. However, "For Liberty," It must be understood, is first and; foremost a story of the life of an American woman of tb"- highest instincts, who is true to her country and to her affections. The working out of a romance in the midst of the atmosphere that existed in Germany when America went into the war, was certainly a hazardous thing, but the leading figure' In "For Liberty," shows that with the heart true It is possible to keep the bead clear.
