STUDENTS STARVE TO GET AN EDUCATION
By MARY HENKE L.ONDOX, June 1 Hundreds of German and Austrian students are starving to death In their desperate struggle for education, according to Dr. Jesse Holmes, of Swarthmore college, who was in London for a short stay
'recently after touring the continent In the lnrests of the Friends war j victim relief work, of which he Is American commissioner. The condition of the university students In these' countries, said Dr. Holmes, is as critical as that of the most wretchedly poor families. Few
of the students have one good meal a
day. Boks are out of the question and molt of the men wear their old uniforms buttoned up to the neck to
conceal the absence of a ehlrt. Men students have gone to bed exhausted from hunger and have been found dead days later. Both men and women are forced to work to supprrt themselves even In this wrethed manner, the men sawing woo or doing other forms of manual labcT, and the women doing domestic or office work.
Professors at Vienna university, I many of whom had a world-wide reputation before the war, are living on me aid provided them by English and Americans. An aged professor, world famous, lived for three months on tea and soup. 21,800 Are Enrolled Twenty thousand men and 1,800 women, said Dr. Holmes, are enrolled in the universities of Vienna. An even larger number is attending the schools in Germany. Germany's condition is critical, according to the Friends commissioner. People are dying quietly in their homes of hunger. Nobody has enough food lut people who became rich throush the war, and the people show a despair and apathy that makes them unfit to cope with conditions. ThR food profiteer was declared to be no of the problems in Vienna. Food peddlers, among them thousands of discharged soldiers, go out in the comtry and buy up the food and then brtig it into the city to be fold at exorbitant prices. Professional Men Suffer. "Professional people show the signs rf starvation in Vienna," said Dr. i Holmes. "Working people do not look so bad, but teachers and professors, educated employes, show every sign of wretchedness. Union workers are ! ocnparatively well paid. "Wages have been increased 600 to 1,000 per cent, 'whle salaries have been only doubled." li Poland and Serbia, which were als visited, the problem was stated to
be chierly that of disease and under ' nourished children. Typhus is raging in Poland, while in Serbia, though food is more plentiful, the number of tubercular children continues a grave problem. At present 200 men and women are working the Friends relief commission abroad. In Vienna food depots are maintained, and 110,000 school children are fed by the Americans, while the English look after the younger children. Hotels have been opened both in Vienna and Berlin to provide university students with a warm breakfast. An American unit of 20 is at work In Serbia doing farm work, helping to build houses and giving medical aid. Friends also have taken charge of the food distribution in Germany under the direction of Mr. Hoover. Only a few Americana are at work In. Poland, the majority of the unit of 70 being English Friends. The work In France, in which 550 Friends, chiefly Americans, were engaged, has been ended. Fifteen thousand tons of milk, fat,
drugs and clothing have been sent to
Russia, and three English Friends,
Arthur Watts, Gregory Welsh and
Hinman Baker, havo been permitted by their government to undertake relief work in Russia. During the recent visit of Krassin, the Bolshevik trade envoy . to London, members of the Friends foreign relief c.ommitteo held a conference with him concerning conditions in that country. A conference of relief workers is to be held in Vienna and Dr. Holmes is to attend this and pay another visit to Germany before returning to the United states in the fall.

MURRETTE. Ladles. How would you like to buy your spring hat from Bill Hart? That's not as improbable as it seems, for the noted two-gun man Is proprietor of a modiste shop in his new ParamountArtcraft picture, "John Petticoats," which is c oming to the Murrette Theatre Wednesday. The filming of the story, which was supervised by Thomas H Ince, took the famous star from the great North woods to the old Creole section of New Orleans. He starts as a lumberjack and is surprised to learn that he has inherited a modiste shon fmm n h
in the Southern city. Determined to
investigate, "Hardwood" John Haynes. the hero, played by Mr. Hart, travels to New OrleanB and there becomes involved in a serlo-comedy of big dra
matic scenes, laughs and a pretty little romance. Mr. Hart is said to be thoroughly at home in this strikingly new type of lOle and to Khinp a. hrlp-htlv in a
dress suit as he, does in the familiar
earu or nis western parts. A good cast was assembled to support him, including Winifred Westover, Walt Whitman, George Webb, Ethel Shannon and Andrew Arbuckle. WASHINGTON Of all the Focial problems that beset Ihe vyorld that of "Sex" is indubitably
the greatest. Thp "mvsterv" of the
sex equation has given rise to innumerable pruderies and pruriencies but the management of the Washington
Theatre has come out flatly with the pronouncement that he haa booked "Sex" the newest J. Parker Read, Jr. special production starring Louise Glaum because of its vast social import and released by W. W. Hodkinson. "Sex" will open Wednesday at the Washington for four days. "In the story of Adrienne Renault," "is a lesson to thousands of frivolous creatures who fool themselves into believing that youth lasta forever,, that Pleasure Is life's chief object and that one can violate the laws that regulate
our domestic lives and get away with it "Adrienne, as Miss Glaum has played her. Is a gorgeous creature of New York's tumultuous night-life who never steals a man's love from anotiier woman oh, no she only 'finds the
love the other woman has lost.' This philosophy, my patrons will agree, is the sophistry that exists in this community as well as in larger or smaller cities among a certain type represent
ed by Adrienne Renault. One of the biggest lessons in 'Sex' is the picture of a woman trying to settle down. It reminds one of the inevitable expression of the man who is going to 'marry and Bettle down.' It can be done, yes, but is there no retribution for the one who has lightly trodden underfoot the principles of 'Sex?' " There is a story embodied In Miss Glaum's new vehicle that she believes is tho most intersting of her career. MURRAY.

FEEL ALL USED UP!
r red Eimm
Lots of Richmond People Do. Does your back ache constantly? Do you have sharp twings when stooping or lifting? Feel all used up as if you could just go no further? Why not look to your kidneys? Why not use Doan's Kidney Pills? Richmond people have done so. They tell you the result. Mrs. N. B. Sanderson, 71 Laural St., Richmond, says: "I have used Doan's Kidney Pills and found them a very
satisfactory remedy. When my kid
neys got out of order and acted irregularly, I had dull backaches and felt run down and languid. Doan's had been used in my family for years, so I took them. They soon
put my kidneys in good order and relieved the troubles." Trice f0c. at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's kidney pills the same that Mrs. Sanderson had. Foster-Milburn Co,, Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. Advertisement.

Telln How to StrenKthm Eyesight 50 Per Out In a Time in Many ItBt Philadelphia. Va. Dr. Iwls. an eyi operlalist of many years' practice, fays
summer time ia hard on eyes t.ecause ; the fflaro of the sun, heat and dust in- j jure and weaken them. lie Bays it is j po5Sible to strengthen eyesight wonder- j fully in a very thort timn by usirtK-; Hon-Opto. He prescribes it freely and further says: "A patient came to rne ' suffering from Blepharitis Marpirtalis. i Her eve had the dull expression mm- I mon to such cases. She used l!on-Opto ! and not only overcame her distressing- : condition, but so strer pthened her eye-j siKht that sho was ahlo to dispense1 With her distarc plasses. Her head- j ache and neuralgia left her. Tn this I instance I should say her evesipht was j improved 100 per cent." The doctor's advice will prove of preat value to t many eye sufferers. Many whose eyes ' were failing say they havo had their I eves restored. One man says after try-! ins it: "I was almost blind; could not! see to read at all. Now I can read ev-j erything- without my plasses and my eyes do not water any more. At nlgrht j they would pain dreadfully; now they i feel fine all tho time. It was like a! miracle to me." A lady who usvl it i says: "The atmosphere seemed hazy; with or without glasses, but after using! this prescription for fifteen days every
thing seemed clear. I can oven read fine print without plasses." It 1 believed that thousands who wear glasses can now- discard them in a reasonable time and snultitude more will b" able to strengthen their eyes so as to be spared the truuh-n and expensa of wetting- -'la.-ses. Kye troubles of many descriptions may be wonderfully benefitted by following the si:i;;-l rules. Go to any active dru? store and get a bottle of Hon -Opto tablets. Drop one r.on-opto tablet in a fourth of a Klass of water and allow to dissolve. With this liquid bathe the eye- t-.o to four times daily. You should not i'-e your eyes clear u: verceptitdv rltrht from the start and inflammation will quickly disappear. If your eyes ar- bothering you even a littlo, t.-xke steps to save them now before it is too lat. Many hopelessly blind mlgrht have Wen saved if they had cared for their yes ia time. NiTR Another prominent Physician to whom the above artb ie was submitted said: "Bon-Opto i: a very remarkable remedy. Its constituent Ingredients are well known to eminent eye specialists and widely prescribed by ttiem.

Do unto others as you would that they
do unto you. Adrienne Renault, divinity of the Frivolity, never inclined toward this theory for the simple reason that she never could imagine herself situated as other women. Yet the eternal problem of sex became Adrienne's problem, too, when fate so ruled, and this wonderful creature of New York's night life, this well-beloved of the most favored men in Manhattan, found herself as incapable of solving tht equation as the veriest novice in the game of love.
