Motion Picture Art
Young, Says Collier

"The motion picture art is mere
child yet. Moving pictures are
now about as printing must have
been few years after Gutenberg
framed up his printing press, says
John Collier, of the National Board
Of Censorship of Motion Pictures in
bulletin just issued.
That the rapidity of development
of the motion picture art will de-
pend largely upon the rapidity with
which schools and social centers
make use of motion pictures is the
opinion of Mr.. Collier.
THE moving picture is cooper
alive affair.", continues Mr.. Collier.
Zone person cannot get moving
pictures and sit down to enjoy
them. One hundred different
groups of people, if they cooperate
can have motion pictures at a price
that is nominal !"
Motion pictures express the Ian
guage of the feelings, and by appeal
ing to mans feelings and spontan-
eous interests we can lead, educate
and socialize him. Motion pictures
make the drama no longer an art
which only Rejane or Bernhard
can give expression to in the pres
ence of fifteen hundred or two
thousand people, but which can be
simultaneously given forth to mil
lions of people from Australia to
Iceland, and from Asia to America.

reluctantly that ex-Sheriff r L Milton

A LETTER FROM
PRESIDENT BARRETT
misunderstanding Between
City and Country DiSap-
peaHngI Says He
To the Members and OFFICERS of the

To the Members and Officers of the
Farmers Union:
Unrest is back of every intellectual
or political crusade or tendency in this
country today.
One need not be a Republican, DEM
ocrat. a Socialist. Republican or a
member Of any other party to realize
that fact.
Look about you and with very few
exceptions you will see few people who
are satisfied with existing conditions.
One party may diagnose the trouble in
it's own particular way, and prescribe
its own particular remedy. Another
party may take an exactly opposite
course.
But the man in the city or the coun-
try, If he reads and thinks and OBJ
serves even a little, realizes that slow
ly, but irresistibly, there is approach
ing a readjustment in America; and in
this readjustment, the main battle cry
will be a more equal distribution of the
burdens and rewards OF the penalties
and the premiums.
The great majority of Americans are
disseminated with the status as it now
is, and the new spirit that is breathing
over the face Of the waters of thought
and sentiment is the genuine and not
the fake, brotherhood of manor at
least a condition nearer approximating
IL than we have seen yet in this nation.
In that day of change. of evolution,
that is coming, IL is to the interest or
both town and country to stand as one.
In the final analysis. we are all Amer
leans.
1t is true, that a few prey upon town
and country alike. 1t is against the
interest OF this few to encourage a
thorough understanding between town
and country.
We must remember in considering
this fact, that the city man of today
was the country man OF yesterday; that
the country man of today is likely to
be the city man of tomorrow that
both are of the same blood, with the
same ties and the identical ultimate in
terest.
1 am glad. as every thinking Amer
lean should be glad. that the era OF
misunderstanding between city and
country is disappearing. Progress in
that direction means that in the ar
duous and delicate solution of the prob
lens that beset our common nation,
town and country will be arrayed CO.
gether and battling intelligently for
human rights, whether in the most
populous city or the most sparsely set
died country.
