' "The church is the greatest dynamic
force for good and philanthropy in. the
world and you young progressive busi
ness men need the church more than
th$ church needs you." asserted Dr.
Joshua Stansfield, pastor of the First
Methodist church of this city, as h
outlined before the Progressive Bus!
ness Men's Club yesterday his theme
for a short talk, his first before any
organization outside his new pastorate
which he has made since coming to
Portland from Indianapolis.
Dr. Stansfield. finding that he was
Introduced as "the new pastor of the
first Methodist church of this city"
and not as "Joshua Stansfield. of
Portland," gave the minister his cue,
he . said, that the club desired to hear
a short address on the church and its
relationship to business.
"Some people say to me," continued
Dr. Stansfield, " 'Don't you think that
the church is less aggressive than it
formerly was?" I reply invariably
that the church is not 'less aggressive
but it is less "pugilistic than it used
to be. The church today is working
out gradually a plan of co-operation.
a plan to make the world better, to
make humanity better. I care not
how many churches you have here in
Portland: in fact, I liaven't had time
yet to find out how' many churches
there are in your no, our beautiful
city. I'm. not so greatlv concerned
about the c,hurch life of this city, but
I'll tell you young men that I am
vitally interested in whether the
church life of Portland is one of co
operation or of "cut-throatism.' That's
what I'm going to find out.
"I stand, too, for the complete sep
aration of church and state, forever,
in this great republic of ours.
Portland Scenery Landed.
"Portland is one of the most beauti
ful cities and one of the most promis
ing cities which it has been my pleas
ure to see in more than a score of
years, and I am here to find out soon
er or later how you are advertising
your fine city, your fine stnt' and
your fine country. Never before last
Saturday had my eyes rested on more
beautiful scenery.-than they did as I
traveled out over that grand Columbia
Highway,
"What is the character of the con
cerns of your city, of your railroads?
Are they co-operating, all to the best
interests of the community and com
monwealth? Have they the right
spirit, the spirit that makes for right
living and success in' business and
community Jife?
."Success in business, directly or in
directly, cannot be found by running
down or picking upon or harassing
your competitor, for in business, pro
fessional and individual life, living
means more than life.
- Danger af Success Discussed.
"Success is a wonderful thing, in
faet, it is the finest thing in life, yet
it is also one of the most dangerous
things in life. So I warn you young
. business men of 'The Danger of Suc
cess" Know your business, master
your , business, but let not your busi
ness master you.
"How many books have you read
since you left college; how many good
books, books that will do you good?
Some of you, probably, not one. Your
answer is that you are too busy in
business. Tes, but let me say to you
that you are missing one of the great
est pleasures of your life.
"So put character first in your busi
ness. Turn out good, reliable goods
and always keep in mind, the danger
of success. I thanlc you."
The club, by resolution, backed up
the City Commissioners in their ef
forts to regulate the Jitneys, follow
ing a short talk by Commissioner
Baker.
President Jaeger announced that the
club had received many commenda
tions on its "Industrial Development
Trips" to various manufacturing sec
tions about the city and spoke in be
half of the trip to be taken by the club
members tomorrow to the Monarch
mills, the stockyards and the ship
yards of the Peninsula.

"HOBO SOCIAL TO REPEAT
Elks Recall Celebration of 1902 and
Plan Another for December.
Some of the older boys around, the
Elks club recently began recalling the
historic "hobo social." given by the
lodge 'way back in 1902. and the mem
ory of that happy event inspired an
other similar celebration.
So another conclave of unwashed
and unfed tramps will take place at the
Armory this year. December 13 is the
date. Every Elk in town will be in
vited to join in the fun, but everyone
will have to appear in a tramp makeup.
The committee in charge of arrange

public.
Manacer TV .T Afvrilr rt fhm r'rtiurr-
bia Theater, is the author of this mo
tion picture innovation, arranging for
regular weekly children's bills at his
playhouse at 11 o'clock each Saturday.
A number of cities of the United
States are consistently catering to the
juvenile population with appropriate
programmes, but this Js the first step
in Portland to offer a regular pro
gramme of film entertainment for
children.
A committee cemposed of the follow
ing women has been chosen to pick the
new Columbia programmes and to act
as patronesses at the opening show to
morrow morning: Mrs. G. J. Frankel,
Mrs. Lee Arnett, Mrs. Cora Lieke, Mrs.
E. LI. Baker, Mrs. F. S. Myers and Mrs.
Oswald-W. Taylor.
Less Than the Dust," the Mary
Pickford feature, will be the first film
presented. Mrs. Frankel will explain
the picture to the children during the
exhibition, while Miss Frances Hanra
han will entertain with a series of
classic dances.
"There has been a strong demand
from the mothers of the city for screen
programmes suitable for the cniiaren,
and the Columbia is going to meet this
demand." says Manager Myrick. "The
entire film market will be culled to
secure the best entertainment for Juveniles."
Columbia,,
At last. Mary Pickford, vice-presi
dent of the Mary Pickford Film Cor
poration, but nevertheless the same lit
tle Marv who has charmed the movie
millions with her characterizations of
humor and pathos, is with us again.
"Less Than the Dust," the seven-reel
super-Pickford film, opened to crowded
houses at the Columbia Theater yes
terday. Although It has boon several months
since Mary Pickford has appeared in
a new picture, her admirers have lost
not a jot of their enthusiasm for the
biggest figure In filmdom. They have
no occasion to abate this entnusiasm.
for "Less Than the Dust" presents
Mary Pickford at her best, in a role
of genuine pathos and humor mat
transcends race, color, or caste.
This .star adds another characteriza
tion to her already !ng list in her
first independent vehicle.. She is a
near-Hindu, a little worshiper of
heathen gods, the sacred cow, and an
occasional inmate of te sacrea Dam.
But she is not a Hindu after all, for
th crirl of the Indian bazaars, the
daughter of the plotting sword-maker,
becomes an English heiress, ana as
such meets the man she loves on a
footing of mora than equality.
There is much humor in the picture.
many of the bits "put ever" by those
intimate Pickfordisms that have so en
deared her to the film world. She dis
covers that some English chairs have
spring seats, makes one chuckle when
she mixes the shoes outside of the
sacred pool, and her mistakes of
etiquette, which include eating her
dinner from her lap and an attempt to
remove her waist, in emulation of a
male passenger-on the ship during the
shuffleboard game, add characteristic
touches which give Miss Pickford a
firm clutch on the sympathies of all.
Of course, Mary is the center of in
terest at all times, but the picture has
merit otherwise. The Indian atmos
phere is well preserved, while the spec
tacular is present in the shape of a
bazaar, a mutiny and its suppression.
The supporting cast includes David
Powell, who was the villain of "Gloria's
Roma ace"; Frank Losee, fosmerly with
Famous Players; Mary Alden, ex of
Triangle; Russell Bassett and Francis
Joyner.
Star.
The Star Theater, once the Star, bpt
more recently the Pickford. opened
yesterday under the new-old name
with Blanche Sweet, perhaps the most
popular of all Lasky feminine stars, in
"Unprotected." With Theodora Rob
erts and Tom Foreman in the support
ing cast this stery of love and the tur
pentine tampa of the South furnishes a
vehicle for a splendid presentation of
Miss Sweet's histrionic ability and
personal charm.
The film is a graphic expose of con
ditions that once ruled prison regimes
of many Southern states. The leasing
of convict labor for private enterprise,
which flourished for so many years, is
pictured in all of its horrors of bru
tallty and mistreatment.
Miss Sweet plays the role, of Bar
bara King, daughter of an artist, who
goes to live with an uncle. He is op
posed to her art studies and forces the
girl to work. She fits up an attio as a
studio and pursues her work. Bar
bara exhibits a statue made by her
father, and through the bit of marble
becomes acquainted with Governor
Carroll and his son, Gordon. The lat
ter is deeply interested in the girl.
The uncle discovers the treasures in
the attic, destroys many of them, and
in a struggle with his niece, who is
trying to. protect her father's statue,
is struck on the head and falls to his
death. The girl, under the name of
Mary Jamlcson, is convicted of murder
and sentenced to 10 years in the peni
tentiary. She is leased to the owner of
a turpentine camp, where convicts are-
brutally treated. The Governor and
his son visit the camp to investigate!
conditions, and the girl, who has been
taken to the camp owner's house. Is In
troduced as his niece. The deception
succeeds until the convicts rise against
their oppressors. Then comes the ex
pose, with Barbara forgiven and find
ing protection in the arms of the man
she loves.
Sellg-Tribune news and a Paramount
cartoon comedy are other subjects
screened.
Sunset.
Douglas Fairbanks is the screen's
greatest -anti-slapstick comedian. He
is to "regular" comedy what Charlie
Chaplin is to the "rough stuff" the
king of them all. "His Picture In the
Papers" is generally rated as Fair
banks' funniest , film vehicle. So the
Sunset Theater, presenting Fairbanks
in this noteworthy Triangle comedy. Is
not violating advertising ethics when
it remarks, via display space. "If you
don't enjoy this, you're sick."
The person who does not thoroughly
enjoy "His Picture in the Papers" pos
sesses a grouch beyond all reason or an
heroically suppressed sense of humor.
It's funny; one of the funniest come
dies ever projected through celluloid.
That wonderful Fairbanks personality
is working at unusual high tension.
while the athletic prowess of this buoy
am cnap is released via prize ring and
a free-for-all scrap that adds a thrill
to the picture.
Fairbanks is presented as a ne'er-do-well
son of a pure food magnate. Fath
er does not value son very highly,
and refuses to take him Into the busi
ness as a partner until he achieves
something and gets his name in the
papers. The girl's parents balk at the
idea of a match with a man with no fu
ture, co it's up to the young fellow to
make good.
First he stages an auto accident, but
fails to annex the desired publicity.
Next he writes a testimonial for a pat
ent medicine, but this only arouses the
ire of his parent, the pure food man
and violent enemy of medicine. Then
the youth becomes a fighter, and has
the champion down and out for the
count when the police raid the boxing
club. Finally ha achieves fame and
incidentally saves the life of his pros
pective father-in-law in a whirlwind
scrap with a gang of crooks.
The picture is full of comedy touches,
not the least of which is Fairbanks'
experience with a goat.
"Better Late Than Never," a Keystone
comedy with Willie Collier as star,
rounds out an all-comedy feature bill.

This five-reel Universal subject.
dealing with birth control, and directed
by Lois Weber, the screen's foremost
woman director, is the picture released
without the sanction of the National
Board of Moving Picture Pevlew. The
board withheld its approval because of
the character of the theme. Just why
this action should be taken. In the face
of an exhibition policy barring those
under 16 years of age. Is difficult to
understand. The film . is frank and
outspoken and deals with a delicate
subject, but the method of handling is
above criticism. There is no appeal
to the coarser fabric, no taint of sug
gestiveness. "Where Are My Children?" sympa
thizes, with birth control,. as applied to
the extremely poor and the physical
and mental defectives, but scathingly
arraigns modern fashionable society
and its childless condition.
Tyrone Power carries the htstrlonlo
