744,865 YOUTHS REGISTERED ON JUNE 5, LAST

More than 200,000 21 - olds Already in War ice. 1

(Br Associated Press) WASHINGTON, June 15. Nearly complete reports to the provost marshal general's office show that 744,865 young Americans who have become of age during the last year registered for military service on June 5. Thla is 268,724 below the estimate of the census bureau, but since more than 200,000 unregistered 21 year olds already are enlisted in the army, navy or marine corps, the military authorities find the result; entirely satisfactory. Misted by 13,000. -Army and navy estimates place the number of 21 year old men enlisted at ,208,588. This figure combined with the falling off in alien registration gives a total of 353,686, which means that the census bureau apparently missed the number of eligibles by only 43,000. "It is confidently believed that this number will be made up by belated registrations yet to be heard from, Including among them the registration of the absentees which is accomplished by mail," said a statement Issued by Provost Marshal General Crowder in giving out figures on the basis of reports to date. Totals by States. The 1918 registration totals by states are as follows: Alabama, 15.358; Arizona, 1,695; Arkansas, 13,208; California, 18,834; Colorado, 6,923; Connecticut, 10,380; Delaware, 1,430; Dist.

Automobile Notes

KOKOMO, Ind., June 15. The automobile industry will reach the quarter century mark of Its growth on July 4. What Is now America's third greatest industry Mates from the Invention of the trst successful American automobile by Elwood Haynes in 1893.

Special significance Is atached to

the celebration of the event on the

country's birthday by the Important contributions of the automobile world

to the reat war. Aeroplanes, trucks and tanks, as well as passenger cars,

are rendering important service in

helping win the war. And, without

exception, they have been made possible through the invention of the au

tomobile and the development of gasoline engines brought about by the

advance of automobile engineering.

As a monument to the inventor and

the great 6tep in improved transpor

tation he provided, the United States Government has on exhibition in the Smithsonian Institution, Washington,

D. C, the first American motor car. The Idea of a "horseless" convey

ance was conceived while Mr. Haynes

was the superintendent of a gas com

pany at Greentown, Ind. He was a

scientist and inventor of some note

, at that time, having been particularly successful in original research work at Worcester Polytechnic Institute,

Worcester, Mass., and at Johns Hop

kins University. As the result of his studies, Mr. Haynes bought a twocycle marine engine and began the construction of the first motor car by

adapting the engine for use on the road.

The initial run on July 4, 1894, was

the culmination of a long series of

tests and experiments by Mr. Haynes, dating back even farther than 1893. The first car traveled thirty-two miles on a gallon of gasoline. It moved slowly, averaging between six and seven miles an hour. The first run proved to be the most

important step In the improvement

of transportation since the invention of the steam engine. The first car was complete in all essential details. It had wire wheels, cushion tires, a carburetor and a muffler, the last two being invented by Mr. Haynes. It had two speeds forward and as many reverse.

Reputation carries weight with wise

buyers.

Such buyers recognize that reputation is not to be built over night or

in a single year. Only the demonstration of unquestioned superior worth throughout a decade or more, can build the repute of a name to a point where it both guarantees, and adds to, satisfaction of ownership. Oldsmobile reputation reflects the respect and good-will in which cars that bear the name have always been held by those most competent to judge their owners. For twenty

On The Screen

WASHINGTON "The House of Glass.", adapted by Charles E. Whittaker from the tremendously successful stage play by Max . Marcin, will be the attraction here at the Washington Theatre today. This production made by Clara Kimball Young and her own company under the direction of Emlle Chautard, is being distributed as one of her Select Star Series pictures. "Vengeance," at the Washington Sunday, the new World Picture, tells an intensely interesting story in a remarkable manner. It has an unusual theme which is developed through surprises and thrills to a emashingly big climax. Montagu Love and Barbara Castleton arc starred in this exceptional production and they are supported by a large and capable cast of film favorites, among whom is dear little Madge Evans. The story of "Vengeance" starts

twenty-three years ago in London. It switches to India of about the same period, then becomes a ' story of the present day. Montague Love Is first seen as John Cuddlestone, a young British army officer who through the deviltry of his brother is hicked out of his home.- John goes to India and there marries an Indian woman. A son is born to the couple. When the father dies the mother follows the Indian custom and meets death in the blaze of his funeral pyre. The son is given into the care of the priests in the Temple of Buddha. The lad grows to manhood and Montague Love is then seen in the role of the youthful John Cuddleston. "Vengeance" Is filled to the brim with interesting, unusual incidents. It is an absorbingly enthralling pictureplay" and you'll thoroughly enjoy it. See it. in -filming "Molly Entangled," the latest Paramount production starring Vivian Martin, the company had the time of their lives and it is safe to say that there was more brogue and more Irish anecdotes scattered around the staid old studio than ever before in its existence. The bitter feud between the Barrys and the O'Maras was a continual source of amusement to the. fun-loving, actors. "Molly Entangled," a typical Irish production is to appear at the Washington Theatre on Monday and Tuesday.
