DURBOROUGH BATTLE FILM'
TO BE SHOWN HE
Invasion of Poland Depicted
"Movies" of Warfare on Eastei
Front?Gayety Even in Berlin.
Views of Kaiser and family
eluded in 8,500 feet of remarlca
photographs. Stirring episodes
the great German offensive agai
Russia; intimate views of Kai
Wilhelm and the royal family i
scenes depicting the economic i
military life of Germany will
thrown on the moving picture scr<
under the auspices of The Press i
Banner at the Opera House.
The films, which are declared
be the most remarkable photogra]
that have come out of Germai
were taken there under special
rangement with the German gove:
ment by W. H. Durborough, pr
photographer, who traversed o^
8,000 miles in securing them a
passed time and again through f
swept regions in an endeavor
get actual scenes from the front J
his American audieng.es.
The Durborough pictures are si
by experienced men who have se
them to show the German army
action as no other series of pictui
Vioiro Hnno Mr FliirKftrnnofh frnvi
sed regions devastated in the ter
ble fighting between the Genna
and the Russians until they reach
the very front on the battle lii
Step by step, the pictures take t
audience from Rotterdam to Berl
unfolding the civic life of the Gi
man nation, depicting personag
like the Kaiser, the kaisering, t
crown prince and crown princes a
men of the German general st?
passing into the war country a
showing the German army advanci
against,the Russians, accompanyi
General von Hindenburg's army
to Warsaw and General von Bei
ler's army- into the triumphant j
sault on our last Russian stroi
hold in Poland, Novo Georgievsk.
"By far the most telling of i
pictures are those that show in
mately the advance of the Germ
army into Russia,' said Mr. Di
borough. "Here are the wreck
homes of the Masurian Lake coi
try, the devastated fields, the rei
gees returning to them, the <
slaught on Novo Georgievsk, pi
haps the most terrible of that i
vance. The action of the great gu
and their effect came strikingly 1
fore the lens of the camera."
"I took 14,000 feet and the G<
man censorship cut out 5,500; t
8,500 feet I have brought back w
me contain some of the most w(
derful disclosures of the methc
used by the German army that it 1
been the luck of any photograpl
to get."
The Durborough films will
shown one day only, Monday, F<
12, from 11 a. m., to 11 p.'m., a
all net profits accruing to The Pr<
and Banner will be turned over
the American Red Cross for use

"DOO-DAD" DEFINED.
Antreville, S. C., Jan. 19, 191'
Editor Press and Banner,
Abbeville, S. C.,
Dear "Bill":?
You published an article last we
in your paper about our trip
Washington in the interest of i
"Doo-Dad.' This article was co:
mented on and afforded our frien
a great deal of amusement,, but yc
I am sure, were not conscious of t
trouble you would cause me by tli
article, for everywhere I go evei
one wants to know wha't a "Dc
Dad" is, and not only this, the ma
come loaded and I have lost so mu
deep answering these letters, a
just on account of this article, th
something must be done, so I a
that you publish this article and ]
the many readers forever know wh
- T\_ Jf) TTI ?J 1,
1 Lfou-uau lb. rur una wuxu u
been misunderstood by your ma:
readers. For example, one fell<
writes as if he thinks it some n<
kind of Jack-Ass and another as
it is some new Steam Engine. I
the inquiries are much varied, i
in self-defense I ask you to publi
the following:
By referring to Webster you w
find the word "Do" (spelt by Cfi
penter "Doo") to mean "to brii
ibout" "to perfect" "to finish," ai
'Dad", by same author, mea
'Father," so when this is coupl
x>gether, you readily see the mea
ng of "Doo-Dad", that I have F
iiered, brought about, perfected ai
inished something and this sped
'Doo-Dad" is a propeller placed
the breast of any make of cotfo
fin and belted to shaft to increa
speed of roll" which does not d
pend on the force of the saws
Irive it, but is independent of sav
:an be run at any speed desired,
fact roll is in motion even wh
breast is raised, so you see y
have a perfect roll system unbrea
able, so I find startling results.
First: Doubles capacity of gi
Second: Prevents cotton accum
lating in ribs, the thing all ginrn
dread; Third: Delints cotton wi
one half revolutions as other gir
Fourth: Makes longer, stronger a
better sample; ' Fifth: Will g
frost-bitten or damp cotton as ft
as other gins will dry cotton; Sixl
Will clean seed better; Sevenl
Will save practically one half fu
Eighth: Will save practically o
half labor; Ninth: Will gin eve
lock cotton that goes in breai
Tenth: Will give customer his oi
seed and not his neighbors run-c
seed; Eleventh: Not necessaryraise
breast in changing from o
bale cotton to another; Twelft
Will take care of roll whether the
is much, little or no cotton in brea
Now, Bill, these are a few thin
that my "Doo-Dad' will do and 01
about half when other alteratio
are made about the cotton gin of 1
day. Hope you will see your w
clear to publish this article, for
am sick and tired answering qu
tions and greatly need sleep.
Yours very truly,
S. J. Wakefield,
Father of the "Doo-Dad.
