' MUST MOBILIZE THE CONSCIENCE OF MANKIND"
i Those who' sponsored the presentation of "Pygmalion"
here . this week : deserve the commendation not only from
lovers of high class dramatic effort but of every citizen who
desires dean, entertaining and 'elevating plays for ; this city.
' It is regrettable that it is usually difficult to I (attract
sufficient patronage to make 'theatrical entertainniens of
educational value a financial success while the cheap varie
ties respond generally to "over-flow" houses.
To change this condition and to develop in the commun
ity ideals, appreciation for performances which will result in
strong progressive character we should begin with youth.
They are the future theatre goers, the future leaders and
citizens of the community and state. It is a well known fact
that boys and girls given the opportunity and encouraged to
read clean, interesting, vigorous books of real literary and
moral value do not later give themselves up to reading
Worthless and meaningless trash. ' And so it is with tie types
of theatrical entertainment provided. If taught to discrim
inate between the really- good and the trashy anddegrading
types of movies or plays the results will be very generally the
choice of the best quality.'.; ' .!- '
. Hence the presentation . of the best plays and; moving
pictures in this city and everywhere else should be encour
aged. Schools ancl colleges should emphasize these better
entertainments. Teachers should encourage the students to
attend and even devote the following day's English class per
iod to a review of the production. Natural expression may
be thus obtained, literary and dramatic taste and discrimin
ation developed. The wide-awake progressive instructor in
English and Dramatics does not reward the pupils who spend
their time and money to see "Pygmalion", or its equivalent,
with criticism or zeros for English the following day. No
and moral values in the life of the. pupil with the opportunity
and moral values in the life of jthe pupil wth the opportunity
to intellectually absorb and to reproduce through class ex
pression the literary and dramatic content of a masterpiece
well presented from the stage. !
The sponsors of these high grade entertainments should
go a step further. And they should be encouraged generally
in effort to obtain concessions for boys and girls both at
school and at work to avail themselves of high class enter
tainments. Such efforts are immeasurably valuable to the
patronstnd to; the future citizenship of this, city' jbid com
munity.

Several of the subscribers to

asking permission to pay up their
full quota at once. Instead of the
ten percent called) for by -the
board of directors. J The latter
body have not yet deiclded whether
or not the permission will be
granted or whether they will take
only the ten percent in order to
avoid payment'of the seven per
cent interest that is to be made as
soon as the stock ia paid in full.

project may be decided upon.

A Lamp that Burns 94 ( Air
A new oil lamp that gives an
amazingly brilliant, soft, white
light,, even better than gas or elec
tricity, has been tested by the U.
S. Government and 35 leading uni
versities and found to be superior
to 10 ordinary oil lamps. It burns
without odor, smoke or noise no
pumping up, is simple, clean, safe.'
Burns 94 air and 6 common
kerosene (coal oil).
Tli' Inventor, V. M. Johnson,
161 North Union Ave., Portland,
Ore., is offering to send a lamp on
10 days' FREri trial, or even to
give one FREE to the first user in
each locality who will help nim
introduce it. Write him today for
full particulars. Also ask him to
explain how you can get the
agency, and without experience or
money make -5250 to $500 per
month. Adv.

A FUTURE PROBLEM
The farm population of the United States decreased
182,000 or approximately 6 per cent during last year, . At
this rate of migration to the cities the final question will be,
who will produce the food. Even Henry Ford with his pro
posed mechanical bossy cannot produce thus all the if arm ancH
orchard varieties. I
