PASTORS DENOUNCE
PLAYS AND POSTERS
OF IMMORAL KIND
Urge People to Shun Those
H.. That Menace Minds
FH of Young.

Urging the members Of their congre-
cations to refrain from witnessing
theatrical performances in which sug-
gestive and immoral topics handled so
frankly are given, many Washington
pastors today followed the example of
the Aloysius Truth Society which last
week appealed to all Catholic and nom
Catholic pastors of the city to take
these steps.
Holding that the Washington theater
owners are not to be blamed for the
character of the shows given at their
respective theaters. the pastors say the
criticism should be centered toward the
big producing managers who have en-
tire control over the performances, and
who say what shows shall be given at
certain houses, and what shall not.
There are posters used in advertis-
ing plays which are unfit for exhibition

gene A. Hannah, pastor of St Martins
Church, tits morning. 1T is amazing

tor of the First Congregational
Church; the Rev. Wallace Radcliffe,
pastor Of the New York Avenue Pres
byterian Church, and the Rev. ]. J.
Muir, pastor of the Temple Baptist
Church, urged their congregations to
decline to patronize plays which were
not In accord with Christian ethics.
The Catholic churches outlined the
teachings of the mother church that
to frequent the occasions of sin" in
itself is sinful. At st. Aloysius'
Church and st. Martins Church
masses were celebrated this morn
ing, and at each service the vast con-
gregations were cautioned to remain
away from certain shows
Father Hannah said:
Real genius is so rare among actors
and actresses that the syndicates con-
trolling the theaters seek meretricious
means Of gaining popularity for their
plays. They sometimes pander to evil
minded persons. These performances
are sensational, are thoroughly adver-
tised and much talked ABOUT SO that
the people seek the salaCious play, be-
cause the salacious lay Is the popular
one. And so 1t goes, from bad to worse
The best way to correct these abuses
10 for decent persons to remain away
from indecent plays and to give their
moral and financial support to the the
aters whose boards are always clean
and whole bills are always unobjection-

THANKSGIVING
PROCLAMATION
PRESIDENT SETS ASIDE DAY FOR
THANKSGIVING AND
PRAYER.
NAMES NOVEMBER 80
SAYS COUNTRY is BLESSED WITH
RICH HARvESTS AND
PEACE ASSURED.

Western Newspaper Union News Service,
Chicago.-Presdent Taft has issued
his annual Thanksgiving proclama-
ton calling on citizens OF the United
States to celebrate Thursday, the 30th
of November next. as a day of
Thanksgiving and prayer The proc
lamation reads as follows:
The people of this land, having by
long sanction and practice set apart
toward the close of each passing year
day on which to cease from their
labors and assemble for the purpose
of giving praise to Him who is the
author of the blessings they have en-
joyed, it is my duty as chief eXecu-
tive to designate at this time the day
for the fulfillment of this devout pur
pose.
Our country has been signally fa-
vored in many ways. The round of
the seasons has brought rich har-
vests Our industries have thriven
FAR beyond our domestic needs, the
products of our labor are daily find
ing enlarged markets abroad. We have
been free from the curses of pesti-
lence, of famine and of war.
Our national councils have fur
thered the cause of peace in other
lands and the spirit of benevolerce
has brought us into closer touch with
other peoples, to the strengthening of
the bonds of fellowship and good will
that link us to our comrades in the
universal brotherhood of nations.
Strong in the sense of our own right
and inspired by as strong sense of
the rights of others, we live in peace
and harmony with the world. Rich in
the priceless possessions and abdn-
dant resources wherewith the un-
stinted bounty of God has endowed
us, we are unselfishly glad when 9TH
er peoples pass onward to prosperity
and peace.
|, That the great privilege We enjoy
may continue and that each coming
/ year may see our country more
firmly established in the regard and
esteem of our fellow-nations, is the
prayer that should rise in every
thankful heart.
| Wherefore, |. William Howard Taft,
| President of the United States of
America, designate Thursday, the 30th
of November next, as day Of
! Thanksgiving and prayer, and l earn
estly call on my countrymen and on
| all that dwell under the flag of our
beloved country, then to meet in
their accustomed places of worship
| to join in offering praise to Almighty
| God and devout thanks for the loving
mercies He has given us.
| In witness thereof l have hereunto
I set my hand and caused the Seal of
the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Chicago. this
| 30th day of October, in the year of
| Our Lord one thousand nine hundred
| and eleven, and of the Independence
| of the United States of America the

this feature. He has a six-year-old.
red headed son that didn't inherit his
fathers economical disposition. Re-
Gently the son was very much in need
of a five-cent piece for soda water
purposes. He went into the dining
rom, where he was free from obser-
walton, and removed his shoe strings
and placed them in his hip pocket for
future reference. Returning to the
office he approached his father and
said:
Pa, give me nickel to get me
palr of shoe strings"
His father glanced down at his
sons shoes, then turning around ap-
preached the office safe and opened
it in silence. He took out the cash
box and raising the lid extracted
pair of new shoe strings, which he
handed to his son without word.
The youngster took the strings with a
crestfallen air and then to the amuse-
ment of the onlookers exclaimed;
