It is the most astound- ing picture of modern warfare that has been, or can be, conceived. Its production cost more than one million dollars. More than a year was required-for its making. Two armies of infantry, cavalry, artillery, fleets of war vessels, battleships, aero- planes, submarines, and every other scien- title. death dEaling device that this cen- tury. has producel, was otijised to make it a battle drama comprehensive and con- vincing.

A I hundred other huge and ori?HHd f-?,aturt?,? make it a cinema spectacle beyond com- parison or d?.?ripdun. While emphasis- ing the incidents of warfare, we must not forget the lighter vein which here and there leavens the production. Bright pas- Ir toral scenes of great beauty; a strong, human story of, exquisite lighting effects are to be commended. Civilisation is what every true Briton is fighting for, and what will, we hope, come when the peace we ara all lookfng forward to is itear. Patrons arc requested to note that only this picture will be shown. Perform- mance will commence each day at 2 o'clock Civilisation will be shown at 2, 4.20, 6.30, and 8.40.

Next week Florence Turner, in Grim Justice," from Rita's novel, and Arms and the Woman," a Pathe Gold Rooster play. Coming shortly, The Ware-Case and Milestones." On Monday the Lasky people have an opportunity of put tting un what has been justly termed "one of the best" at the Lrpsium. "Each Pearl a Tear" is writ- ten round a pearl necklace, which is the cause of many teats, but in the end is the means of smashing up a gang of shady stockbrokers. Tlte lead is played by Fannie Ward. whose delightful person- ality has never been better adapted to a part. "The Purple Domino" reaches its eighth episode, A Secret Adventure The Pathe-colour film, A Pilgrimage to the Crimea'" will recall other fighting days; Ham's Easy Eats is a Ham and Bud comedy," and will no doubt be tasty." For Thursday, another great film (Wm. Fox) will pVovicIe some good fare. "Little Miss. Happiness" is an American drama depicting the old adage "To the pure all things are pure." The stvr artiste is June Caprice. The story centres round a little baby boy who has to struggle down -a grandfather's curses. wait for the protection of a father, who finds it co-nvenient to sink his iden- tity fu- a while. After twelve weeks' run The Girl and the Game will see its close this week. and Helen will bring the crooks to justice and cease her dangerous train jumps. Fun will be afforded in The Honeymoon for Three "—one above tL0 usual number. In Old Britany is interesting Patke-colour. The Graphic will still hold its own.

i ALLOTMENT NOTES IJI
i ALLOTMENT NOTES JI IHINTS FOR SOCIETIES. I By CULTIVATOR. With the passing of midsummer, the pict-holders' main wcrk of cultivation for the year will be finished, and his princi- pal occupation on the plot will be in attending to the standing crops, now growing last, and rapidly approaching maturity. Tho chief matter of importance is to see that whatever requires to be done is dene promptly at the- right time, so that the utmost advantage is taken of the few remaining weeks of growing weather. While the industrious cul tivator is now reaping the reward oi his toil, he will be summing up the results to see how far his efforts at cultivation of the land have been successful, and where his failures are apparent he will naturally enquire into the cause, and whether it arose i through errors in his methods, with a I view to rectifying them next season, or from causes beyond hurr:.a, control. LECTURES BYOPRXPERTS. It is with the first of these causcs that the societies can be of the greatest ser- vice to thedr members, by the arrange- ment of a winter programme of lectures and demonstrations, to be delivered by practical horticulturists of the district, who, I feel sure, if approached, will give lectures or advice on those subjects of which they have special knowledge. In many districts the business of providing lectures is undertaken by the education committep of the County Council. Many of the counties now have a horticultural instructor on the staff of the Education Committee, whose business it is to visit the different districts and give advice on the plot during summer and lectures in- ,doors during winter, and in the counties where these methods have been adopted for several years the standard of cultiva- tion as practised on allotments and cot- tage gardens has reached -a very high level. Gardening as understood by the pro- fessional practitioner is a very wide sub- ject, requiring several years of training in its various branches to become pro-. ficient, but even in its more restricted branch of vegetable culture, as practised on allotments, requires a knowledge which is not acquired without consider- able effort, and many of those who have taken up the cultivation of the land for the first time this year have had to con- fess like Hamlet that "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in-our philosophy." THEORY AND PRACTICE. In drawing up a programme for tho winter the science as well as the practice of the craft should have full recognition. The formation, composition, and cultiva- tion of soils, the science of manuring, the elementary facts of plant growth, .and physiology, fungoid diseases and insects injurious to plant life are all subjects of much importance to those engaged in the cultivation of the land, and if dealt with by those fully conversant with them, cannot fail to be of intense interest. With regard to the practical cide of the subject lectures should be arranged 0Jl the cultivation of the various crops which can be grown on allotments, in addition to the eternal potato, whose importance I do not under-rate, but which can be supple- mnt(, by over 20 other varieties of vege- tables, the explanation of the various manual operations of planting, sowing, etc., the rotation of crops and other sub- jects which have an important bearing on the successful cultivation of the land. HOW AUTHORITIES CAN HELP. Illustrated lectures invariably prove the most attractive, especially when the mem- bers consist mostly of amateurs, and this raises the financial aspect of the question. Before societies can carry out programmes or so comprehensive a character as here suggested it will be necessary for them to have greater financial strength than, I am afraid, most of them at present possess. This could be met by the Education Com- mittee making a grant for the provision of slides to illustrate the lectures and loan- ing them out to the societies when lectures are given on the special subjects. Again, the Education C-ommittee can materially help the work of the societies in allowing them the use of a room in the schools to hold their meetings in in the various dis- tricts where societies exist, and in this way will help considerably to spread the allotment movement which. it is to be hoped, will lave a considerably longer life than the duration of the war. There is also another sphere in which the work of the societies can be made of especial benefit to the individual mem- bers, that is, by the co-operative purchase of seeds and manures. If the societies 'were to make a levy of Is. per week for the next six months, as I believe one or two are already doing, there would be a' the end of that period a gum to the credit of each member for the purchase of seeds or potatoes for planting, the pro- vision of which by easy instalments in advance will be less felt than if the whole had to be provided in .one payment. Not only would this be an advantage, but the society will be better able to buy on advantageous terms by buying a large quantity for ready cash than if each in- dividual member has to buy in the retail shops. This matter is one which requires the close consideration of the societies, and in view of their experience last year in obtaining seed potatoes they will do well to lay their plans well in advance. Also. there is sure to be considerable scarcity in many varieties of seed, and r corresponding advance in prices. Cultivator.

1CYCLING - AND iQTOB I - -…
CYCLING AND iQTOB I CYCLING. A Iier't ou 3 accident to an Ongar iahourer has drawn forcible attention to o?e of the most foolish practices in connection with cycling—that of carrying a parcel swing- ing on the handlebar. In this case tho man was carrying a bottle of milk when it get in the way of his legs so that he I was thrown off his bicycle and rendered unconscious for twenty-four hours. For-! tunately he is now progressing towards recovery. A parcel hanging loose like this, may be carried for a long time with im- punity. But once it will swing back- wll,li j u;;t as the knee is coming up, jani between that knee and the handlebar. and knock the steering-gear round before one has had time to recover. A CYCLING VETERAN. -11 r. Alfred Bird, ii-Lio jcir. I in the meet of veteran cyclists at Stone- bridge a week or two ago, is one of the oldest cyclists of the day and still one of the keenest. Born in 1849, Mr. Bird 11 took to cycling in 1887, and has been a firm adherent of the bicycle ever since. He makes, it a rule to devote at least one day a week to cycling, and last year covered no less than 4,000 iuiles. To this ho ascribes his remarkable good health. He was elected for West Wolverhampton in 1910, ard is a member of the Alpine Cl u b res a corollary -to cycling. He rides the ordinary safety of custom, but has been through all the stages from the bone-shaker." — 0- MOTOR CYCLING. Regular and systematic cleaning of the engine has a great influence upon te satisfactory running of a inci.o.r-eyele. It is rather a tedious than a difficult job, and no one need to be afraid to tackle it. The engine must be dismantled in the first plaoe. The ,pètrol pipe and the carburet- I tcr, with the high tension wire and the inlet pipe alioud be taken off. The hold- ing" bolts must be unscrewed. The pis- ton should be placed at the bottom of the stroke, i.e., the piston of the cylinder on which one is working. By rooking the cylinder the right position for its easy I coming away will be readily found. The piston, cylinder head and the valve parts will require, scraping, for which a long screw-driver ccnies in very 1landy. The rings should be removed and the carbon deposit cleaned off. The utmost care is necessary when handling the cylinder and piston, since damage can be very quickly done, damage, too. that may cost a good deal to repair.
