Applications May be, Sent to the City | Clerk--Kingston i¥ Expected to Do Its Duty. J. M. Hughe nan of the Vie- tory Loan Con , has issued a | cirenlar letter signed by himself and | |W. W, Sands, secretary, calling upon | every citizen to subscribe to the loan. | This letter, together with an appli- | i cation form, is being sent to every | home in the city with instructions to | | fill it out for the ainount desired and : mail it to W. W. Sands, city clerk, | | With ten per cent. of the amount. If | { any further information is desired it | | Is only necessary to call at the secre- | tary's office the city hall. i While it is true Ontario has ex- | ceeded her allotment, other parts of | Canada did not do so well, total amount of the loan as at first | { announced has been subscribed and | a further call for $100,000,000 has | been made. This was anticipated if the loan did not drag out, indicating | inability on the part of the people to | take it up. But there is every reason | to believe that this further amount | can easily be obtained. What con- { cerns Kingston most now is the rais- ing of the original allotment, and the chairman is most anxious to be | able to say that Kingston has never | fallen behind any other city in Can- | ada. i Theatrical At The Grand | The Man Beneath," is the title of the latest Robertson-Cole production | that pleased the capacity audience at| | the Grand last night, and will be ree | { peated tonight and Wednesday. Ses- | {sue Hayakawa is starred in this pic-| { ture, and he takes the part of a high {cast Hindy who falls in love with a Scotch girl. Although she really loves | the Oriental, she realizes that mar- | Tuge would make them both outcasts. | | How he saves from death a very dear friend of the girl he loves and de- feats the plans of a gang of black-] { hard conspirators makes a ve ry grip- | jping play. Around this theme re- | jyouves a story of black-hand intrigue, | | Oriental sticism i " exciting | hold the} to the final} Theda Bara in "The Darling | {of Paris" another big feature picture, | wlil be seen, and with the comedies {and reels of Pathe News and an act {#t novel vaudeville, this bill is a very {attractive one.--Advt. | At Griffin's. { A 'highly delighted audience wit- nessed last evening the splendid pro- gramme being shown at Griffin's, which is headlined by that popular star, Wallace Reid, in his new de- lightful comedy drama, "Your're Fir- ed." An ideal portrayer of strong men's parts, Wallace Reid is equally capable in the portraval of ligh. comedy roles. Because of his re- markable versatility he has an en- ormons following of screen fans, who turned out in a goodly number to see him last evening. The unique im- personation he plays in this picture adds another captivating screen port- Tait to Mr. Reid's already crowded gallery of paintings, and that it will appeal to all who see it is an assured fact. A splendid Sunshine comedy is also shown and interesting topics of the day, which proved very popular with the audience last night. Don't miss this bill.--Advt. 'At The Strand. Nazinova, the distinguished Rus- sian actress, was the attraction yes. terday at the Strand Theatre, in the powerful drama, "The Red Lantern" She was seen in a dual role, playing both Mahlee, the Eurasian, and Blanche, the English girl. The roles are of such vastly different character that it was amazing to think that one woman could portray them, both. As Mahlee, Nazimova was supreme ~--depicting the passionate and in- serutable daughter of two races--the child of an English father and a Chinese mother--whose instincts, tra- ditions and emotions surge in con- stant conflict---making of her a men- tal outcast, belonging to neither race. e story reaches dramatic heights when the unhappy girl finds that her yellow blood is an 'insurmountable ier between. a young missionary whom she loves and herself, and that although he is powerfully attracted to! her, this difference of yace can never be overcome. Wild jealousy grips her when she finds that he really loves her half-sister, Blanche, (also played by Nazimova). and in a frenzy she agrees to the proposal of Wang, who loves her, but whom she hates, to go with him and lead yellow races in an uprising against the whites. She assimes the stic title of the Goddess of the {Red Lantern, which thrills the peo- ple to a fgnatic religious frenzy, and they determine to exterminate, "foreign devils." Relentless remorse seizes her for what she has done, and at great risk to her own life she tries to save 'thdse of her father's race whom she loves. 'A tragic end occurs when the girl realizes that she be longs to ! iful contrast to this is the romance of Blanche young missionary. --Advt. : Ig on and Berbisns. The | * And KINGSTON OBSERVED THE KING'S REQUEST Out of respect for sixty thou- sand of Cinada's sons who paid the price in Franders Fields, that Canada might never know the horror of war in her own borders, Kingston stopped work for two minutes on Tuesday, the first anniversary of the signing of the armistice that brought to & conclusion the most horrible War that the . world was ever plunged into. Kingston oclebrat- ed that day, in prayer and in ju- biliation. Again to-day, just one Year after, she again showed her thankfulness by respecting the command of the King, and for two minutes people were asked to cease whatever labor they Were performing and think ef the men who had died that Can- ada might continue ti live, The whistle on the Locomotive Works blew at eleven, and in many firms and factories, all power was shut off, until the whistle blew again at two minutes after eleven. In the Whig, the power was turned off all machines and presses, and remained off until the specified time. ONE YEAR AFTER. November 11th, 1919, A year has gone since "Cease fire!" the message was cabled "The Germans retire", Retire to their homes, cowed, Unable to perform the oath they had vowed; A terrible vow and at terrible cost; But how do they feel now the battle is lost? the order an enemy Their militaty prestige fallen so low, With not even the honors of a worthy foe, Did they call it a fight when to mur- der they came? With no sense of decency, no feeling of shame For the acts which they countenanc- ed, nay more, they created, Such deeds as in history will always be hated. It is sad, though, to think that al land that gave birth To some of the finest men upon earth | Should, in a few years, turn that gold into dust, And bright deeds of the past should | be covered with rust, And tarnish the 'scutcheon, which once was so clean, With the devilish work of the "U™ submarine, We talk of the man who falls from his station, N But is it not worse to fall as a na- tion? o-day all"the Allies will think of their Sons Who fell in the field, or were sunk by the Huns. Not yet can we feel that their deeds are forgiven. It would need a love much closer to Heaven, You can't take away the best of our boys, And shoot them down like so many toys, Then expect in a year that the hearts which were broken Will be healed. and no word or re- proach ever spoken. God gave us our loved ones to care for and cherish, ' It takes lomger than that for their memories to perish.
