...course, before going one might know the play ought to be amusing, since Harry Leon Wilson, none other, wrote it. But "Ruggles of Red Gap," also the work of this same man, fell flat, although it had possibilities, and this due to the poor dramatization.

Stanley '17 will strengthen this event considerably if he can get off probation...

...British and Prussian representatives. "Follow Me," showing a soldier leaving for the front; "Remember Belgium," picturing that country in flames and suggesting the possibility of Britain's finding herself in a similar plight; and "There is a place for you in this line, will you fill it?" showing a gap in the ranks, are some of the most striking designs. Lord Kitchener's famous call for volunteers "More men and still more until the enemy is crushed" is depicted on another poster...
