WASHINGTON. D. C. March 18. A song, "Death to the Hun," written by Mrs. Daisy.' S. Gill of Long Island, N. Y., is to be sung at the "Win the War day" celebrations on April . 6,- which are being arranged by Wimam Mather Lewis of Chicago.. executive secretary of the national committee of patriotic societies. Mrs. Gill explains that her song Is not a hymn of bate, but "that moral passion which must flame to the allied colors if the Hun is to be rolled back Into his shameful breeding ground." The words follow: '. Death to the Hun Forward through pain and rack, Till he Is beaten back , Death to the Hun! -Though low our dead men lie; Loud rings their charging cry, . As life and. love leap by . , Death to the Hun! I Speak not of right to be, . Speak not of liberty, . Under the sun Till we can stand beside France Belgium crucified, " And fling the glad news wide. Dead is the Hun! ' " Till we can answer back, -Who braved that brute attack. Father and son ' You have not bled in vain, Fruitful your mortal pain, Hopes for the race remain - Dead is. the Hun! . (Air: "My Country, 'Tis of Thee.") Churches to Pledge Loyalty The committee is being urged to request ministers of every denomination to ask their congregations to repeat the pledge of loyalty on Sunday, April 7th. The Rev. William L. Vrooman rector of St. Andrew's church.

Today and Tuesday, the patrons of the Murrette are offered "The German Curse in Russia," a picture of the struggle for democracy in this warridden country. Among the many interesting scenes shown are the famous women soldiers comprising the "Legion of Death," the charges on the German trenches, the soldier trying to ave his wounded officer, the beginning of the great riot, the rioting in the streets of Petrograd and many other scenes. The picture was taken by an American camera man Donald Thompson. The like of these pictures has never been seen before and may never be seen again. WASHINGTON Tuo famous stars Madge Evans and Henry Hull appear in "The Volunteer," the new World-Picture BradyMade which will be the attraction on today at the Washington theatre. Madge is the most clever child actress now appearing on the screen. Mr. Hull is famous as the male star in that famor stage success, "The Man Who" Came Back."

Imagine condensing he living details of the most strenuous periods of American history into n evening's entertainment of less than three hour. You are not told nhout it nor is your Imagination tested r-v rhetorical descriptions of what took n'ace. Instead you see it by lightening flashes. It is history revived and shown in its making. Some of the greatest names that are written large upon the scroll of our country's fame appear upon the program. The players who enact the rolls have studied the minute descriptions of these men both from photographs and intimate life studies and with this framework they make these wonderful characters live again.

But that is not the most IMPORTANT point. The most important point is that "food conservation" is for our Allies. We must send certain foods to our Allies even if it costs us lots of money to do it. We must send them certain foods at any cost. "Food conservation" means food SUBSTITUTION Instead of plain food saving. True, we must, save food, but the most important thing is to eat something else than 1. WHEAT. 2. MEATS, 3. SUGAR, 4. FATS. If anybody asks you what good it is going to do THEM to save food tell them that they miss the point. The point is: "What good is it going to do our Allies?" Everybody Knows we give you more for the money. MOST Tailor Shop R. E. Graham, Mgr. On Main, Near 6th St
