SHOW WAR FILMS TOMORROW

PRES. LOWELL TO PRESIDE AT EXHIBITION IN OPERA HOUSE.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The Official French War Pictures will be shown at the Boston Opera House tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock. The pictures were taken by M. Janvier, well-known as the first Frenchman to introduce into France the plays written by Shaw and Ibsen. M. Janvier has been stage manager for many years of the Odeon, one of the theatres controlled by the French Government and has been conected with the Theatre Antoine and Beaux Arts. He is now in the United States and is raising funds for Le Oeuvre Fraternelle des Artistes.

President Lowell will preside and Commandant Azan will speak. It is probable that some of the French officers now helping in the training of the Reserve Officers' Training Corps will be present at the exhibition of the war films.

The meeting is for the benefit of the French Tuberculosis War Victims' Fund and the Edith Wharton War Charities. All the money raised will be divided equally between these two organizations and far the greater part of it will be used to alleviate the suffering which has been caused in France by the rapid spread of tuberculosis. This plague has been greatly increased by the importation of the disease from the German prison camps by those French soldiers who have returned and brought it to their families in France.
