K. OF C. TO RAISE 16 MILLIONS FOR BOYS IN KHAKI Money to Be Used for Amusement of All Soldiers in Camps. ' The Knights of Columbus War Camp Fund drive is to raise $16,000,000 in the United States to be used in "the cantonments for recreation, amusement and general morale of the boys In khaki. $250,000 of this is Indiana's share and Richmond and Wayne county is expected to raise $7,500 as Us quota. This budget will carry on the work until July, 1919. The boys in the camp best know the extensive work that the Knights of Columbus are doing. A large and efficient corps of Knights of Columbus has landed on European soil and have received a hearty welcome by the allied generals. The slogan "Everybody Welcome" has been extended "Over There," as it has become the by-word in the Knights of Columbus recreation centers over here. Secretary of War Baker, in his report stated that 35 per cent, of the arjny and 45 per cent of the navy is made up of Catholic boys. In addition to this fine crowd of American citizens, the Knights of Columbus extend their work to all the boys in khaki regardless of their affiliations. The Knights of Columbus Insurance association has invested $500,000 of life insurance fund in Liberty bonds in the knowledge and in the belief that the putting over the Liberty loan was more important than the investment of funds in securities that would net them greater interest rates. The National Bulletin published daily in Washington at the direction of President Wilson commented upon this subscription to the Liberty loan by the Knights of Columbus, by saying that it was the largest subscription to the Liberty loan that has been made by any organization of a similar character up to date. The drive has been on in other states and everywhere full quotas have been raised. In New York City, $1,070,000 was subscribed to this fund. In Cincinnati, one firm, the ProctorGamble company contributed $50,00 to the Knights of Columbus War Fund. Donations of this kind are not made without full knowledge of the use that this money is being put to. The subscriptions to the Knights of Columbus War Fund will be published in the daily papers after the drive is well under way. Director Harrington has headquarters in the Knights of Columbus building which will be opened day and night until the campaign closes. A large clerical force is now working that this drive may be put ovei in a competent and efficient manner. Those who are not personally solicited, and there will be many, may make their contribution to any member of the general committee or tc the Knights of Columbus headquarters at the Knights of , Columbus building.

ENGLISH GIRL WEDS FOR LOVE

Secretary of the Navy Daniels has indorsed the appeal for women workers for the government airplane factories. ,

The Countess of Westmoreland LONDON, May 2 News of the recent marriage of Lord Westmoreland

one of the least affluent of England's lords, to Miss Catherine Geale. daughter of Rev. John! S. Geale, created no little comment among the friends of the couple because the reason for the match was so obviously love. This is Lord Westmoreland's second marriage and his friends are actually reported to be quite disappointed because he did not choose a wife with means who could help him build up his estates. During the life of his first wife he was continually in financial difficulties and finally was compelled to sell his ancestral home. His impoverishment, however, is not due to himself, but to the extravagance of his father, whose debts be is trying to pay off. The Countess of Westmoreland disappointed her friends in the same manner. They have finally decided that it must have been a love match, otherwise, how could the countess have married a widower many years her senior who had no money.

"The Blue Bird," which is being shown at the high school auditorium was seen by large audiences Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. While the picture has a special appeal to children, it is as attractive to the adults, and night performances will be given Thursday and Friday at 7:30 o'clock for adult audiences. In "The Blue Bird," supernatural effects are produced. The largest setting ever constructed inside a studio represents a eravevard. which turns

. into a beautiful flower garden. In

order to produce this scene, various novel mechanical devices were insalled at the studio in New York, where this set occupied a mammoth stage. It took two weeks to build the setting. Two children portray the central characters in the production. The parts of Tyltyl and Mytyl have been given to Robin Macdougall and Tula Belle, well-known for their work before the camera.

Appeals for Secretaries For K. of C. Service P. H. Callahan, chairman of the Knights of Columbus committee on war activities, has addressed the following appeal for secretaries for foreign service, to John J. Harrington, Jr., of the Richmond Council: "By August 1st we must have 200 Secretaries in French Field Service and need your assistance in the selection of these volunteers. . "yVe pay a salary of $125 a month and traveling expenses to France and return; also traveling expenses abroad. We furnish unirorm equipment. We also pay the life insurance premium on a $5,000 policy, where taken with our approval. Inexperienced secretaries will receive a training in our methods in an American camp prior to their departures. "These secretaries should be about forty years of age, as men younger, or

those subject to the draft, are subject to criticism abroad. They must be Catholic gentlemen, though not necessarily a Knight of Columbus, of the best of character, with initiative and executive ability, and will to work with their hands. "We prefer native-born citizens who are not of enemy ancestry, relation cr marriage, as it may be impossible for those of German or Austrian blood to obtain the necessary passport approvals. The type of men desired is the one who will temporarily give up his business or profession and make a personal sacrifice to help carry our war program to a successful conclusion. "We are writing a few of the Grand Knights, asking their personal assistance in getting immediate applications to this office for foreign service, and their own recommendations concerning those they feel are thoroughly qualified."
