CITY," IN EIGHT CHAPTERS, AND “IRON CLAW,"

MONDAY'S GREAT OFFERING.

Manager Gallagher is sending oilt un nnnolilicemelit oi interest to Prince

Edward patrons, which, oi’ course. means everyone in Cliarlottetown. This indicates a change in the pi'ograin_ules, and ti temporary increase in the price of a portion oi'_ the sertts,»~accounted for _by the unprecedented expensive <lass of pictures which will be offered. The cost _oi’ producing and rentilig the ilrstgrade pictures haaiiicreused beyond all anticipation. more particular- iv what might be termed the De Luxe feature subjects.

While Manager Gallagher' realizes that lie is giving ii mighty creditable

show at the Prince Edward, still continually patrons ask why he has not shown such-and-sucli a picture. A number have instaiiced "Tile Eternal (ity," Grelit 'eight-reel master picture, featuring Pauline Frederick. Gallagher has been quite plain in stating that there are many subjects entirely too expensive for him to show atten cents.

Local motion picture fans have prevailed upon Mr. Gallagher to experi-

ment with an increasedprice for sixweeks, during which time patrons will see some of the best pictures it is possible to procure lit any price. beginning with “'i‘li`e.Eteriial City,f' next Monday and Tuosday,~-ri picture for which 25-cents to $1.00 'has been charged in larger cities. The same being true

hiill will he seen the foilowiii week

of “The Allen,” w f » » K - _

The increased price, which will be for six weeks, as an experiment. will

apply to downstairs only, and will include only adults, while the l118.tIl\€0 prices will 'bb lint-hanged. Thus it will liescen that no lnirdsliip is exacted, and in return local amusement seokerswill not be deprived of any features that are possible to first-class picture houses anywhere. 1770

The following interesting facts

w_ere written by Allan Cole, “Some-'

wiqre in I<‘rarics" t his aunt, Mrs.-

m. Cole, French Pllver:-_~ -- -_

. _ - - Somewhere, in Franco,- .luly 18th 1916. .Dear I Aunt Emnia:--

I. was pleased indeed to

your 'letter of recent date, a suppose before another stlorm, will endeavour to give you -‘some i_'_a of lite.-by the vague iiulnie of- ‘ oine- tiilsare in France." ' _ 1 _ - ,'r even weeks ago we.left Wd bhillnd us, and begin life in w »il_

known as "Suuny~ ix ." - ysii Bhould be termed`,“€l:l§\y&?B'h¥I!§.aot yet discovered. We have had Drac- tlcnliy no summer, and last _ xiigllt

wfas like a night in Qctobe§.‘aI.J10.\Ib0. it is good that this is so.. al- it spell of hot weather here _wquld create danger to the healtth of the men. _lf 5

We are in-our second pobitidninow,

and. preparing to move to a third up in S. A. h. We got it pretty hard, and hole in 114- we got it harder still. We lust got to -_the front in time . for _ the .long contemplated drive, and l am safe to shy that in our seven weeks here. we ,have done more work than lots of _batteries here for a year had done before the “stroft be- gan." We have been in the battle oi' the “Summa” all through and.llave certainly done our bit. ~ _Immediately upon arriving at our position we were set to work. “dig- ging ln"~that_ is providing shelter under ground. We worked day and. riight, day time digging and nt night' time taking iii shells and believe me. it in not an easy job to carry many 100 pounds-shells, especlallly when the ground is slippery after rain. We dug 10 dugouts, 15 feet long, 88 feet wide and 14 feet deep, timbered them to a height oi’ 6 ft. 6 in. and covered the roof over with enrtll, the rest of the way, and piled it three oi' four feet above ground. llere we lived and slept and felt quite secure from shells. We got to learn that the saf- est place to go to when we heard a I-lun’s shell coming was the dugout, and we would run to it. What coiinterl as bravery in olden' times is the height ui’ folly iiowx Besides tiles.. large ones. we had to dig a large num: ber ot’ aniinuiiition pits. _ On_ June 16th we began shooting grallual-ly working up the number of rounds every day, till July lst. Domi~ nion Day, the day oi’ the big “sti"oif" the beginning of the “Somnie"’ but-' tie. Ever since our arrival, there was something in the air about ii com- ing drlve. Twice it was postponed and we began to think it was like the much talked of drive of n year ago which never matei'iali1.ed. But on June 30th the Major called us' in_ and _told us that the next A morning- the f‘s‘tai‘f"’ was oi_i.__We were up at ‘3 and did a little shooting att 5, and tho big bombardment began at 6.25 a. ni.: all the guns along the fline opening

it never ceasing tire till 7:25 that

four guns were supposed to get off 12 rounds in that time. Well number 3 guii, of which l have the honor of being _Sergeant was _the only one to get oil’ the ful-l-number having halt a minute to the good. It was terribly exhausting work and I felt all lil' at the end of it. After 7.25 the rate of fire becoming slower and l went down to the corner where the road from the trenches leads and saw the string of nmbullances conveying 'the wounded. who were hurt in the be- ginning oi' the big drive which is not over yet. We also had the satisfac- tion of seeing a part of the German prisoners as they were halted on the road side.

Well, we got orders to take up a

.new position on July 4th. We got out of S.--- A.-- b.- without a scratch, but have heard since that two nights after we left the garded was shelled from end to end. On July 6th we arrived here. A big ad- vance wns iunde here as you may see when our position is iii advance 'of the old British -fence line t_i'e_nc_lles and we live iir the dugotitii-_iii ‘these ti-ehches. Tho~`counti`~y here looks like a_battle-flelil. It is-torn and scarreti. The hilll in front of us, where "tile

Gtprmarls' front: line trenches were poughed deep with lillells. There ls'

n crater in one place about foity feet deep shaped likéran 1"invere'd core, I looked' do\vii one dug oilt but soon loft as tho odour ‘comiiig up was' awful. A__t'_ellow_ said that there. were eight dead Germans `dowii below and iii_ another one close b_y_ there were thirty-live.

It speaks great for the work _mf the

British, here _when one actually- sees the stron: position -~ they _’3,_5;o,l§"rrt.m the Germans ' '

We have paid the price too. The

P. Ei. island’s casualty list is grow- ing rapidly. ll see by the papers I got on July 12th we lost one man killed and two wounded by a shell. Just an hour ago twu oi' ourrteiiows who were out digging in our new position pass- ed im in-_tle-iainlruiancs. one_wounded in the shoulder; 'elle in the hip. We don’t know yet just how serious they are, but Walter Lanta»was»ins‘taiitly killed. Our new~ position is 'a danger- ous one. hut wo go when called. We have done an awful iot_of work here. especially in the fine days that was Bombardment from July 10th to July 15th. On July 15th we were up at 3 s. m. and by 311. m. had fired 340 rounds, 1': tous 'oi msml. l was nom-

ple_toly faggeiout. 1-ibut these last four days' have"b` n"q iete`r and l`ni lret- ting-_reste__‘d up. This is' no easy life, uiiu the mn who joins me artillery with the ldap -of a siiap is badly mis- ioilton. ' -_\ -lad to say that l_feel fine i\eYe_;"ll&t`er and can stand it with AA.: nw Aus'
