Thus believes the Heverend Father Neul Dodd, rector of the Church of St. .Mary of the Antiels, Episcopal, and known in the film studios it the "movie" rector, rather Dodd plans to have erected soon a new church in Hollywood, which will cater particularly to the spiritual needs of the fif teen to twenty thousand persons in "moviclund." Kathcr Dodd is widely known for his views on the censorship of motion pictures. Ho has taken the stand that the average Individual "resents cent sorshlp as u repiiKnant manner of taking away his inherited rights." Further discussing his ideas, the licv. Father Dodd said: "The best way to kill objectionable pictures is to refuse to lend them support at the box orficc. it is un-American to have n hoard of censorship tell people what pictures they shall see and what they shall not see. Let the people Judge for themselves. The producer of an offending picture will come in for a reckoning, not only now. hut at a later day, if ho pre sents something offensive to public opinion." Father Dodd believes whatever agitation is back of the Sunday "bine laws" movement is part "of a wave of hysterical reform which has been sweeping the country without thought of its results." '.

The young astronomer bus proved by calculations that the sun the lit tle speck of light around which a liny hadow called the earth revolves is not by any means the center of the universe, but is iiO.000 light years off the center. He litis caused our proud sriiur system to take a long slderal sidestep Into insignificance. "Personally I m glad lo nee man sink into such physleal nothingness." said the scientist, "and it is whole some for humiui beluga to realize of w hat smnll importance they are In comparison with the universe." In fact, Dr. Shnphy appeared en thusiastic over the fact that he haa reduced the tdze uf the earth a thous and times. At the.
