By "united" we do not mean an organization in which aU "is honey and ple.'with never1 a' dirfe'reifce of opinion "to rutile the'serenity of the club, but one In wfifcli men bfc diverse opinions 'can get together with mutual respect and, after considering' all the varied Spfnions and conditions', can dfr clde on a course of action and follow it out to its' accomplishment Division of inieredts means' a pulling apart of the comtlierclal and industrial activities. Unified action means a growth of mutual understanding and decided gains in the strength of com munity action. By touching elbows, men learn thatJtheir fellows have likeable qualities. To dtrthe' greatest possible good for a community, a commer cial organization must be wide in its scope of 'membership. Not only must the privilege of membership tie extended to all In the immediate community who have the Interest of the community at heart, but those from surrounding territory must be invited in.

MOTION PICTURES APPEAL TO WORLD-PUBLIC. i "First of all, should be remembered that no force in the world -i.--jn - iil V -jii'T. .- e :' - ' "m ever lut-me motion picture uusiness, or any ower Dusmess, . one inch SbovVits present status, except the force 'of popiliar de man'd; which mean's your demand, and the demand of all'tlie bet- ter people jpf your community, says the Woman's Home Compan- ionf or April. " 1 "The motion picture deserves the freedom that is accorded the press. While It is an expression of dramatic art, it is also a iind of journalism; for free public discussion. Pure milk, tuber culosis, and the fly nuisance have been discussed on the screen; in like manner, hig moral problems are being discussed at every film show, and at the same time the audience is being entertained. "Another poirit to be kept in mind: Today ali motion pictures are made for a world-public comprising the young and the old, the educated and the ignorant. Until there arises a specialized de mand every motion picture problem must be a compromise be tween the demands of the child and of the adult. " 'The greatest' competitor the motion picture theatre needs to fear for the future is the public school,' said the head of a great distributing organization of films. As soon as the public schools begin to use motion pictures extensively' we will be compelled t"o change the character of our production to a 'considerable extent to meet the demand. The exhibitor will have to make a special effort for child patronage, or lie will lose ground;, His purpose is commercial,' while that of the school Is Idealistic' "In tlie meantime the exhibitor is gathering in the children at the rate of a million a day."

Lincoln Beachey met his expected end. Tho physical daring of the man has been vindicated probably a thousand times, but, ike the pitcher that went once too often to tho well, It came to grief. Lincoln Beachey was a pioneer In modern-day aeronautics. He began his career at the time of the Lewis and Clark exposition and had continued in It assiduously ever since. His aim was to achieve the spectacular and the sensational. It was his purpose always to create me risk of tragedy, and by one of the abnormal bents of human natur6 he made thd business pay. It is a pity that to this sbrt of entertainment, hinging upon orrid and breathless expectancy, and well-developed, cfcar-mlnd- ed American young man possessed of the Beachey ability to do things should submit himself as a Bacrificlal victim.

The end 'was inevitable; and as It was tragic, so is there regret. Telegram.
