Motion Pictures For
The Public Schools

The Sacramento Bee says that State
Superintendent II, att. in advocating
motion pictures for school use in Cali
fornia, is following the excellent ex-
ample Of a number Of Eastern educa-
tors. The innovation was long ago
advocated in these columns.
Such pictures are already in use in
public schools and Sunday schools in
the East, and their educational value is
high. There are a great number OF
suitable films for school purposes. such
as those which show street scenes in
foreign lands, famous natural objects,
interesting industries, public spectacles
and the like.
Exhibitions of moving pictures would
add much to the attractiveness of the
public schools, and so would tend to in
crease average attendance.
1t would not involve much expense
for each county to have a motion pic.
ture apparatus. which could be used
successfully in each of the public
schools, by regular rotation. Films
may be rented, aud need not be
bought.

 Note-The bonded indebtedness was re- dlced' during the year from S2i,500 to s22,5OO.
 Commissioner James Weatherly nomi- hated MT. Badham. He made one of those witty, breezy speeches for which he Is noted. He said You want man who can retire your bond issue. To do this you want a person who knows all the hooks and crooks of frenzied finance. I have such man in mind.
 Brother Exum and I have had job thrust upon us. We are struggling with soulless corporation with no assets l thinl, we in the city hall need prohibition about as bad as do the Country club to relieve financial difficulties. Talk about a wizard why he will leave you a bonded indebtedness to be paid even by three or four generations. He will do all the slick tricks needed in this work. I don't krow how far Brother Exum and myself will help Judge Lane solve the city's troubles, but Badham will solve the Coun- try club troubles. I therefore nominate Hon. Henry L. Badham of Alabama"
 The nomination of MT. Badham was seconded by President Culpepper Exum of the commission
 The entire club vote was cast for MT. Badham by Secretary McDowell
 Mir. Badham said 'If I had dreamed that I would have been exposed like this by Exum and Weatherly I would have remained away. But when I recall that they have not been allowed to speak for a month I readily forgive them"
 MT. Badham, after digging back at MT. Weatherly and MT. Exum launched into a serious discussion of the club affairs. He said in voting for the board of gov ernors he wished 1t borne in mind to consider the plan of arranging for host or hostess every Saturday night. He also said there should be some attractions inaugurated which would appeal to the wives and daughters of club members.
 He thanked the members for his elec- ton, saying 1t was the realization of an ambition long cherished and he was grateful for the honor.
 E. H. Cabaniss, E. K Campbell and Major Tutwiler were the candidates for vice president. At the meeting MT. Cab- aniss nominated Na tor Tutwiler and MT. Campbell seconded 1t.
 Retiring President William H. Kettig and President Henry L. Badham after the ballots served the members with a stag luncheon, at which sandwiches and other delicate and tempting things were offered those who attended.
 The Country club. by the election of MT. Badham, launches one oe its most successful years. it Is believed Mir Bad ham is president of the Bessemer Coal, Iron and Land company and one of the most widely known industrial men in Birmingham He has ideas about club rule, which if backed up by the board of governors, insures the Country club an unprecedented year of activity.
 The selection of vice president was the most important matter after the presidency, for the club bylaws make 1t imperative that the next president be the rerson who serves as vice president. Maj Edward Tutwier was elected without op- position. as F. K. Campbell and E. IT.. Cabaniss withdrew after the name of Major Tutwiler was offered.

MEXICO CITY BEWILDERED
 BY ATTACK UPON JUAREz
CONTINUED FROM PAGE D

~-----~---~-----~---~---- fore a sentiment of personal vanity to lead the President, to whom power has become more than ever burden of bit ter contravities and immense responsi- bilities, to refuse to yield to the de-
 mand of the insurgents.
 NO, it is the duty-the supreme duty of
 bringing back the country to the sway of law and order at any sacrifice, including that of his life if necessary.
 "Furthermore, to allow the presidency of the republic the supreme authority in the nation, to become the sport of the will and pleasure of more or less armed groups, would not certainly conduce to the restoration of peace, which must ever rest on the foundation of respect for law, but on the contrary would open new and most sinister chapter of anarchy in our history, the persistence and conse- ouences of which it would be impossible to foretell.
 "The president of the republic who thus has the honor of addressing the Mexican people at these solemn moments. will let there be no doubt, retire from power when his conscience tells him that he can do so without giving over the country to anarchy, and he will then retire In the dignifed manner which the nation has
 a right to expect, and to which he him self Is entitled as ruler who may have made many mistakes but who has also fought in defense of his country and has served her with loyal devotion.
 '"rhe failure of the peace negotiations will perhaps entail a renewal and aggra- vation of revolutionary activity. If, un- fortunately should be the case. the gov. ernment on its side, will redouble its ef- forts. relying on the loyalty of our heroic army to uuell the rebellion. But In order | to promptly and efficaciously ward of the dangers which threaten our social fabric and the countries autonomy. the government needs the support of the peo- ples patriotism and cooperating efforts It feels that 1t has that support and with | it, it is confident of saving the nation.

 Step to Reform


 Pekin, May s.--The long-awated edict abolishlng the grand council and substi- tuting constitutional cabinet of 10 mem- bers was issued today.
 The change is in line with the demands of the national assembly for a consti- tutional cabinet responsible to that body instead of to the throne, but in what re- spect the new ministry is made respon- sible to the assembly has not been pro- mulgated.
 Washington, May S.-Wth the substitu- tion of a cabinet composed of Prince Ching and the heads of the 10 executive departments for the old grand council of five persons, long step toward the es- tablishment of a true constitutional gov ernment in China has been taken, it is be- lieved by officials here. It is a part of the plan to make cabinet ministers tenure depend upon the will of a majority in the constituent assembly and since this was one of the principal demands of the lib- eral element, it is expected the action of the government will reduce the prob abilities of an extension of the insurrec- tion in the Canton neighborhood.
