ME wi0^?^™ Camouflage Puzzle By HARRY J. SMALLEY The word "camouflage" is, doubtless, familiar to all readers these war-times. It means the art of rendering ground objects invisible to the enemy's aeroplanes. In the following incoherent verse are hidden the letters that compose the surnames of many Motion Picture actors and actresses. Can you find them ? The person who finds the most, and tells us where he or she found them, in the neatest manner, will receive a $5.00 bill. Other successful contestants will receive suitable prizes, if their work warrants it. Address "Camouflage Editor, 175 Duffield St., Brooklyn, N. Y." There was no sill above the door but hay around there flowed, Edge-volumed sighs ignoble came, a Mex. of Tex. I owed. "Ah! fan a draft!" said I, "O'Neil. and I draw thru the raw." Rah !

My own socks knit, do I? Nix! Nit! Ram's wool is hard to shave! At Golden Twilight's Fall By OSCAR H. ROESNER O memories that surge and sing And down the heart's high farways wing, O winds beyond the sunsets blowing, O thoughts of youth forever going To some adventure great and high, To far-off realm and alien sky, 0 youth a-gleam with glowing faith That builds and conquers on mere wraith ! You one and all come back to me With all your loved intensity, When at the golden twilight's fall 1 seek a Motion Picture hall. Then flee the day's turmoil and pain, The sacrifices made in vain, The old regrets, the world's annoy, And in their place come love and joy, Clear sunshine and the April flowers, The rearing of high dream-hued towers, The power to do, the faith to dare And rise triumphant o'er despair — Yea, memories surge and wild winds wing With purple thoughts of youth that sing Of fair untrammeled dreams and far Beyond the sunset and the star — When at the golden twilight's fall I see the movies in some hall.
