Pepple and Grt-enwabl's "All Girl Rovue", which starts a four-days ensaement at the Orpheum theater today, will prove a real novelty in entertainment. It is a series of specialties all woven together in the form of a revue. Sinfjinp-. dancing and musical selections follow each other in such rapidity that there is not a dull moment in the entire, show. Vaudeville has come to be the favorite form of amusement for a great majority of pleasure seekers and it is spread over the enure country in a network that makes it more popular than even baseball. Of all forms of vaudeville, the most popular with the masses is the all-girl show when it is well arranged as in this case. There is no delay between specialties, just a combination of fun and beauty, a world of feminine loveliness, the pick of fe le talent, combined into a grand display which is sure to delight youns? and old. This seething blast of frivolity is presented in nine magnificent scene surprises. For the last half of the week the vaudeville bill is headed by George Damarel in his new act, "The Little Liar", in which he is' assisted by Myrtle Vail and Rddie Hume. Mr. Damarel's old act played by himself last season ami seen at the Orpheum a few weoks ago with a different cast, vas entitled "Temptation". His new act is said to be even better as a vaudeille delight. Hirschel Hendler, a genial young man ef polished mannerisms, and who is an accomplished pianist, presents an offering which he styles "The Roet of the Piano" in "Rianology". The number introduces Mr. Ilendler in the serio-comis characterization of a foreign tnusir .student. R-K-I srells pep, and that little word is the title of a clever comedy playlet offered by Otto Kocrner and company on the same bill. Mr. Koerner gives a delightful impersonation of an old fossil who is brought rut of his financial rut hy his youthful ward. Doyle and Rlaine. billed as th daffydill pdrls. and the Curtis comedy canines make up the program.

For three years, unsuspecting Americans have been uttering thoughts suggested by and transmitted from Rerlin. Their native shrewdness hat been gulled by rhapsodies upon "German efficiency" to the admiration of which they were so susceptible that It became a habit with some to interpret all German acts anl even atrocities in terms tf superior efficiency.

Rut from now on. there is one rule, anil only one, for the American to apply to any statement or idea, advanced 'from any quarter, which has bearing upon the war: stripped to the core, who is to be the ultimate beneficiary? If it is detected that palliation of -ondonement receives more emphasis than justice, then classify it as a Teutonic proposal. The urgent need for raising a mental line of defense right now is disclosed in tiie fact that Germany, within the past few weeks, has established a new and most dangerous bureau. It is a laboratory of enemy psychology. The headj.i;arters are in Rerlin, with agencies in all neutral countries. "The object of the bureau, and the duty of the aqents," says a dispatch from Perne. Switzerland, "is to catalog continuously the precise psychological status of each of Germany's enemies. Each agent, working in a neutral country adjoining an entente country, must record and forward all available information bearing on the morale of the entente countries and show its fluctuations. German's hopes are concentrated not on the success of the submarine war, but on the pro: able moral collapse of the entente allies." Through these reports, like weather reports, of moral conditions in enemy countries, Rerlin expects to be apprised of recurring "psychological movements" for launching its peace drives. Thee moments are in -pared by persistent, insinuating propapanda. and then. when the aiard is dawn, t lie peace blow is delivered. If Americans fancy that they hae fully dipoed of such a . cril. they shcuhl ponder th scan!al just uncovered in Prance where. ,fter three years of magnificent resistance to the invader, it appears that paid German propaganda ? utilized and entangled a cabinet minister (however innocent his intentions) that it wrought his ignominious downfall. jt them ponder the recent "Stockholm crisis" in Prance; also in England.

The imperial German government understands public psychology, at least that of its own people, as has no other government, perhaps, in the history of the world. It Avas the first government of which we have knowledge scientifically to apply the laws of matter- to mind. It has taken public thought as an entity, as a ponderable, to be separated into its component elements, manipulated and recombined for specific ends. With what miraculous success, the obedience of the German people for the past three years bears witness! Yet deadly as their work has been, they have found less success in neutral and enemy countries. They now realize where they have failed and their new bureau will undertake to ascertain how and why. With which data, they will be armed for more telling advances. In enemy and neutral countries, it has been noted hy observers for the past three years and fleshly reiterated by Elihu Root upon his return from Russia that the German propaganda invariably appeals to the baser motives cupidity, fear, hatred, jealousy and also, invariably, to inertia. This makes it the easier for them to apply physical principles to thought if we imagine thought to have consistency since they work upon the heavier and more malleable ideas. Their method, generally, lias been to keep a steady stream of propaganda wearing upon the thought of neutral and (d'.rect.ly or indirectly i Intervals, this is increased in volume, at times into a deluge. These favorable moments are those which loom up darkest in entente countries, even if from domestic causes, when the public spirit is depressed and the

watchfulness slackened.

I'r

In addition to the bureau of psychology, it has just been announced that eery government department in Rerlin is to have it-; own press bureau for the purpose of tstablishIng "close collaboration on a larger scale with newspaper" relating to the "Germany of world politics and internal reconstruction."

It is then that Rerlin applies the military principle of the surprise attack with her propaganda and simultaneously with entente dejection, the German situation is made to well up most ominously. Time and again, in the blackest hours of the war, Germany has appealed unbeatable, not alone from the facts in hand, but because when the allied determination was most relaxed, that of Germany was skilfully p.irtrayed to seem the more inexora' b . The real purpose of the German pro agenda H simplicity itself; at home, to whip up the spirit on th--people; in enemy couhtrbs. to undermin' the will to war. Rut in the svme degree that the German propaganda waxes powerful and insob-nt i:i siuves--. at critical times it reveals the seed of its own disintegration. Ry learning to examine ;t for the key word, or key phrase, or key Idea, which so freqaently gits it a meaning entirely aprt frm the context, it may '-e possi!!-? to determine whither the German mind and heart are f.-arinir. an l why for this reason, if fr r.. ether, th-- allied pe.rb-s must s.the war through to the :;i.:h. First, the American must be on his .guard. Forewarned. he tan take the time to b..fk into t:i subject further.
