J. H. Burton , of New York, the honor flag representative of the Treasury De-partment, announced that the honor flags for communities this time will be based on the quota being subscribed by 20 per cent of the population. Last time it was based on 10 per cent of the population . A blue star will be awarded , in addition to the flag, for each 50 per cent excess of the quota. Last time it was for 100 per cent excess. The following table, suggesting what each person should subscribe, according to his or her weekly wages, and the num-ber of dependents, has been worked out by the Liberty Loan Committee, with the help of labor leaders: Weekly Subscriptions according wages to dependents. 5 or under None 1. 2. 3. 4. over S25 $150 $100 $50 $50 $50 $50 30 200 150 100 100 50 50 35 250 200 150 150 100 100 40 300 250 200 150 100 100 45 350 300 250 200 150 150 50 500 400 300 250 250 200 60 600 500 350 300 300 250 70 700 600 450 400 400 300 80 800 700 600 500 500 400 90 1000 900 800 700 600 500 100 1200 1100 900 900 800 700 120 1500 1400 1300 1200 1100 1000 THE CHILDREN OF AMERICA AND THE LIBERT Y LOAN Back of the trenches of France run our rear-line trenches of America. In them every one of us is a soldier on duty. The Liberty loan is a service in which every man, woman, and child may take part. Children may carry the creed of patrio-tism into their own homes. Because of this influence a child may help sell Lib-erty bonds. I hereby appoint every child of school age in the United States a soldier of the Liberty loan.—W. G. Mc- Adoo. RED CROSS ELECTION OF OFFICERS POSTPONED —f- The regular business meeting and elec-tion of officers of the Hershey Red Cross Branch, which was to be held October 1, was postponed to Tuesday evening, Oc-tober 8, on account of the patriotic meet-ing held at the Y..W.

The fine attendance at all the shows last week proves beyond a doubt that the people of Hershey and surrounding towns want good movies. Pictures of the same calibre are booked foruthe entire winter. The attractions for the coming week are as follows: Friday and Saturday, October 4th and 5th, Screen Classis, Inc., present "TO HELL WITH THE KAISER," featuring Lawrence Grant and Olive Tell. This is the greatest arraignment of Prussiarrism and the moral baseness of the Hohen-zollerns and their kind ever made. It is a magnificent commingling of fact and imagination , showing how Wilhelm, the monster of Europe, signs a pact with Sa-tan for the mastery of the world. This is followed by the wilful destruction of the treaty of Belgium, as a preliminary to the most ghastly crimes the world has ever known. An American Girl, Alice Mun-roe, sets out to avenge the death of her sister, who has trustingly sought the sanc-tuary of a Belgian convent, and is respon-sible for the dramatic climax in which the Kaiser meets the fate he so richly de-serves. Brilliant and effective scenes, in which Olive Tell and Lawrence Grant do wonderfully forceful and realistic work, complete the most amazing screen drama ever presented in connection with this all-important theme. This feature is in 7 acts. A one-reel comedy will also be shown. On account of the seating capa-city at the Central Theatre being limited, we urge as many oi our patrons who can possibly do so, to attend on Friday even-ing, as on Saturday evening, no doubt , many will be turned away, judging from the size of the crowd last Saturday at "My Four Years In Germany." There will be no shows on Monday evenings, until October 28th, when "THE WHIP" will be shown. Wednesday evening, October 9th , Will-iam Fox presents William Farnum in "LES MISERABLES," a stupendous picturization of Victor Hugo's famous story, directed by Frank Lloyd, in 9 acts. "The greatest epic and dramatic work of fiction ever created or conceived ; the epic of a soul transfigured and redeemed , purified by heroism and glorified through suffering; the tragedy and comedy of life at its darkest and its brightest, of human-ity at its best and at its worst."—This is the; verdict of that supreme authority —the Encyclopaedia Britannica . Do not make the mistake of believing that this is just "an ordinary picture." It is not. "To Hell With the Kaiser" It is the most virile, forceful production ever made. Its grandeur has never be-fore been approached . That incompar- ! able actor, William Farnum, undoubtedly I does the best work of his stage or screen : career. His interpretation of "Jean Val-jean" is a living, breathing ideal. He is supported by a notable cast which in-cludes Jewel Carmen, Dorothy Bernard , \ Sonia Markova, Kittens Reichert and ! others. Hearst-Pathe News No. 66 will \ be shown. I A special train on which will be exhib-ited trophies from the battle fields of France, Belgium and other foreign coun-tries will arrive at Hershey on Friday, October 11th, at 9 A.M. and be here un-til 9.50 and will be placed on the siding to the rear of the Freight Station. This train is being operated in the in-terest of the Liberty Loan Committee of the 3rd Federal Reserve District. They will exhibit army tanks and . other war trophies and while the exhibition is going on, speakers accompanying the train will address the crowd and sell Liberty Bonds. The personnel of the party will include Mr. T. P. Myers as the representative of the Liberty Loan Committee, who will have entire charge, four speakers, a guard of eight U. S. Marines and others. Everybody is urged to come out as the exhibit is large and interesting. See War Trophies Train Friday, Oct. 11 The Liberty Loan Rally that was held in the Park Theatre on Tuesday was a wonderful demonstration of the patrio-tism of the people of Hershey. The ar-rangements for the rally were only perj-fected on Monday, and the town was placarded during the afternoon, and it was very gratifying to the committee in charge to see the Park Theatre jammed almost to its full capacity on Tuesday evening. The first speaker was Capt. A. Wells Ingram, of the British Red Cross. The Captain spent many months in Serbia and is familiar with conditions as they existed then and must exist now. He also gave vivid accounts of the sufferings and pri-vations of the people of France, Belgium, Italy and England. The Rev. Dr. Robert Bagnell, of Harj - risburg; who had just returned from Eurl- Liberty Loan Rally Great Success ope, then followed. Owing to the fact that another meeting was scheduled for the same evening at Hummelstown his talk was brief. The audience would have been content to have listened to him for several hours, instead of minutes'. One point that the Dr. emphasized was thai the boys "over there" were watching us "over here" with the same interest that we watch them, and they expect us to go "over the top" for the Fourth Liberty Loan, giving our dollars, as they go "over the top" giving their lives. Four soldiers and a chorus of girls were present, leading the singing, accompanied by the Municipal band of Harrisburg. On Monday and Friday evenings of each week the Hershey Reserves meet on the third floor of the Press building. The number of enrollment has passed the 125 mark. It is the wish oi the men of the organization to have 250 men enrolled, which would put the company at war-strength. Surely, there are 250 red-blooded men in Hershey and vicinity who will hear the call. Make ah effort to bring out a new member on Friday even-ing. Capt. Stine, of the Harrisburg Re-serves, had the sergeants and corporals of the local Reserves on the floor of the i Hershey Men s Club gymnasium on Tues- ; day evening, and he straightened out i some of the military commands for their , benefit , and then put them through the j paces to see that it hadn't gone over their j heads. Capt. Stine, when he was through j with them, said that the Hershey : Re-serves had a splendid lot of officers, and he felt that the organization would short-ly be whipped into shape, and would be a credit to the town of Hershey and-Penn-sylvania. i It is going to take hard work to do this, however, and it can't be done by ; staying at home. Every man in this or- | ganization should be present at least once j a week. j The hour of drill commences at 7.30 | promptly. Be on hand at that time and i Capt . Stout will thank you.
