FIVE-CENT THEATERS.
V Moving picture theaters may yet be-
. com an aid to education. ' The, 'Chi
cago, Theater Protective association Is
about to cast out all Immoral films.
Why not go a step further? Why not
discard the vulgar and trivial pictures
which abound at these places? These
pictures are not wicked, but mostly
-Ahey are silly and senseless. It Is an
utter waste of time to look at them.
They teach nothing and are really not
entertaining.
Replace thee senseless views with
those which are really1 worth while.
Properly selected, these pictures could
give to thousands of people an oppor
tunity to take a trip around the world.
Typical scenes in Iceland and Ger
many could be portrayrd, the mosues
ot Constantinople, the ancient temples
of India, the pagodas of the Orient
could all be brought before the eye

wonders of our country, ns well a

against the screen.

A few days ago The Observer print
d a short article saying that several
locations, now saloon sites, were want
ed by business men as soon s they
could be vacated. The seme condition
prevails today. The bulldlims on I
pot stn-et and Adams avenue that are
now used for saloons are wanted bad

ness. In one case tht we know of
the ownr of a building has mlsi-rt the

Induction Are That An Scata Will Be
Takea for Organ Recital.
. At this time It seems that every seat
for the organ recital to be held at the
L. D. 8. tabernacle on-Saturday eve
ning will be taken. ' A Denver paper
says of the artist who la coming here
on that date:
"One of the greatest treats that has
been accorded music .lovers of Denver
for some time Is promised for the 28th
of this month, when John McClellan,
the celebrated organist of the Mormon
tabernacle at Salt Lake City, will give
an organ recital at the Central Pres
byterlun church. Mr." McClellan Is
probably one nf the most-famous or
ganists of this country, and at his re
cital hern he will be asslettd by Hugh
Dougall, a baritone singer of note.
One of the highest honors ever paid
to Mr. McClellun was during the
World's fulr at Pt. Louis. The man
agement of that great exposition sent
for him to give some concerts on the
great organ in Festival hall. Ho. was
allowed to name bis own terms, and
his success at these recitals placed him
among the front rank jpf organists of
America. One of the greatest pelas
ures of a visit to Salt Lake City is a
visit to the Mormon tabernacle at the
time of the playing of the great Organ
there, and, In his work at this .great
house of worship Mr. McClellan has
met with unqualified success,"
