Private Feat his own soldier sioay Pertinent Extracts For the Use of EXHIBITORS IN House Programmes or for GENERAL PUBLICITY In the Exploitation of “Private Peat” A Paramount-Artcraft Special Picture When Soldiers May Swear 'T' HOU shalt not swear unless under extra^ ordinary circumstances. And “extraordinary circumstances” csn be defined as moving your tent in the middle of the night under a downpour of rain, seeing your comrade shot, or getting coal oil in your tea. Some of these things are visualized in “Private Peat” which will be shown at this theatre next The Ladies From Hell Marvelous is the endurance, the valor, of the Ladies from Hell. They withstood the gas, and they withstood wave after wave of attacking German hordes. You may see some of them in the great Paramount-Artcraft special picture, “Private Peat” which will be displayed here next Worst Days of War Over The worst days of this war are over. The worst days were those through which we came in the winter of 1914-16. We might lose as many in killed and wounded as we did through that winter; every white man, British, French, American, of military age, may pay the penalty, and yet the worst days have gone by. How these brave men suffered is shown in “Private Peat” the big Paramount-Artcraft special picture which will be displayed at this theatre on next. Who Started the War? Who started the war? There is no room for argument. The Germans started the war. Who will finish the war? There is n^ room for argument. We will finish the war. The truth of these statements is amply proved by “Private Peat,” the great Paramount-Artcraft special picture which will be displayed at this theatre on next. Advice to Soldiers Obedience, a cool head, a clean rifle and a sharp bayonet will carry you far. How Soldier Peat found this to be valuable is shown in “Private Peat,” the big Paramount-Artcraft special which will be displayed at this theatre next The battle scenes are said to be remarkable in their variety and scope. Sure to Get Plugged Every man who goes into the active service of the present war knows that some day, somehow, somewhere, he is going to get plugged. So it was that I “got mine,” wrote Private Peat. A German explosive caught me at Ypres while I was in a lying position. The missile in exploding carried out portions of my lung and bits of bone and flesh. What followed is shown realistically in “Private Peat,” the big Paramount-Artcraft special picture which will be displayed at the theatre next You Can’t Die If you’re wounded and have to lie out in No Man’s Land, then lie out, but don’t be foolish enough to die while you are lying out, because you can’t die once they find you. Private Peat remembered that advice as is shown in “Private Peat,” the great Paramount-Artcraft special picture which will be displayed at this theatre next , and he is alive to tell the tale. The Aim of the Pacifist What is the pacifist in this country doing for peace? Nothing. He is only trying to put off this war for a worse war. Every man, woman, or child who talks peace before the complete defeat of Germany is a Kaiser agent, spreading German poison gas to the injury and possible destruction of his own countrymen. The truth of this statement will be apparent to everyone who sees “Private Peat,” the new Paramount-Artcraft special picture starring Harold R. Peat, which will be displayed at this theatre on next. 18
