BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE.

We don't realize it.
The fact that We live in the midst
of wonders.
Here we are sending wireless mes
sages from coast to coast, cleaving
ing the air and talking over wire to
New York or San Francisco.
We push a button and on goes the
light.
We turn a crank and off we go ca
reening DER hill and dale.
If this had happened fifty years ago
or, rather, if anybody would have
told us it could happen-we'd have
laughed at 'em.
Now we accept it as matter OF
course.
This column referred to "The Sign
at Six" yesterday-a new novel by
Stewart Edward White.
That has for its motif this oblivious
ness to the marvels among which we
live.
And upon which we are so accus
toned to depending that consterna
ton attends their nullity.
One of these wonders is the NOV
ing picture.
Last week in the presentation OF
the dramatization of a classic-"Un
dine and the Knight"-it was brought
to the attention more forcibly than us
ual.
we take the moving picture drama as
a matter of course.
| "Undine," as every one knows, was
a water sprite who, enamored of 6
mortal, was permitted to live on the
eartn for an interval
The story is beautifully presented.
| "Undine" herself was convincing
since the actress who took the role
was canny enough to depict the emo
lions of being not mortal in hel

sive love-making her inability tt
cope with the feminine sophisticatioI
of human woman, her ariel-like re

But it was the, mechanics of the
thing that took the writer's attention
and fixed her fancy.
The melting in and out of "Undine'
and the spirit of the Brook the lat
ter impersonated by an old man, wa:
an exquisite mystery.
These beings, like fairies ant
ghosts, are supposed to take on hu
man shape or elusively shuttle it off
as the occasion demands.
And the manner in which this wa
done in the picture presentation wa
a marvel.

MORMON CHURCH To
RULE GOVERNMENT
Mrs. F. F. McCrea Holds that
Mormon Leaders Have
This Step in View.

The Wednesday nights meeting in
the interest of Home Missions, was
held under the auspices of the affili-
ated women's societies at the First
Presbyterian church, Mrs. F. F. Nc
Crea, of indianapolis, being the speak
err. She took as her subject, Mormon
ism as it Is Today" and treated her
topic as suggesting a home mission
problem. Mrs. S. w. Traum had charge
of the devotional period, Mrs. F. w.
Kruger and Mrs. Fred J. Bartel fur
nished special musical numbers, and
Mrs. l.. H. Bunyan presided.
The meetings tonight will be held
in the several churches instead Of I'M
ion, this being the regular prayer
meeting night The general topic,
which each meeting may adapt to it's
! own needs is home missions.
Mrs. McCrea prefaced her lecture
with the remark that man is a very
credulous creature, which accounts
for his accepting a religion whose
claims are as preposterous as those
of Mormonism She cited the success
sive steps of the development of the
cult, taking up in order the early his
tory of the Smith family, the finding
of the golden plates from which, it is
alleged, the Book of Mormon was
translated, the migrations of the early
Mormons from Pennsylvania to Ohio,
to Missouri, to Illinois, and finally to
Utah.
i To Control Government.
"The time is coming when the
Mormon church will hold the reins of
government" was one of the alarm.
ing statements made by the speaker
This she quoted from a Mormon au.
thority, and gave it as her conviction
that the Mormon priesthood keeps
objective steadily before it. She quot.
ed figures showing the membership in
the West, especially in the great I'm
land Empire aggregating approx.
mately one-half million persons. Con.
sidering their missionary activity, and
their diligence in pressing their
claims, she held Mormonism to be a
menace.
The question of polygamy was dealt
with at some length 1t was contend.
ed that despite the claims to the con-
trary polygamy still flourishes among
these people. Mrs. McCrea having
lived in the West claimed to speak ad.
visedly in preferring such charges
against the leaders of that church.
She called attention to the fact dis
closed in the congressional investiga-
ton of few years ago, that Joseph
F. Smith, president of the church,
was at that time the husband of five
wives and the father of forty-two chill.
dren.
AS to the remedy, it is twofold
First, an amendment to the constitu.
ton of the United States forbidding
polygamy, and second, the taking OF
the gospel to these people.

WONDERS SURROUND us Z:
But We're SO Used to Them We Don't Think Anything
About Them and Go on Our Unheedngs Way -
Too Much Talking in the Offing

dent of the tale demanded, but how
manipulated with the most occult me-
chanical art, or artistic mechanics,
whichever way you care to put it,
These are extraordinary things.
But We think nothing of them
We regard them as indifferently as
we do the marvels of nature-the ris-
ing and setting Of the sun, the bios
soming of the flowers, the budding of
the trees and the onward sweep of
water.
And yet we get it all for FIVE or ten
cents.
The fact should be emphasized that
last week we had the opportunity of
seeing picture drama presentations of
two worlds classics-"Undine and the
knight" at the Murrette. Homer's
Odyssey" at the Palace, and also at
the former theater a dramatization of
The Woman in White" one of the
most famous novels of the famous
English novelist, Wilkie Collins.
Neither should it be overlooked at
almost all of the picture theatres you
will see illustrated current events
and that their presentation is time

In instance a day or so after Mr.
Roosevelt arrived in New York from
Milwaukee his descent from the train
and greeting were recorded by the
film pictures on the screen in a local
picture house.
These current event pictures are of
great educational value.
The easiest way to impress a thing
on the average mind is through the
medium of the pictorial.
Humanity is like a great child
1t loves a picture.
1t is less trouble to absorb through
the eye than through the intellect.
Hence pictures are always more
popular than books, in certain phases
and stages of development.
! That is one reason for the popular
ity of the film drama
| And it is surprising how much can
be conveyed without speech.
Songs without words" are as illu-
minative as those with.
We all talk too much.
It's the cause of half the nervous
prostration in the world.
People wrangle and chatter and
growl and talk and talk and talk
On and on and on.
You've heard 'em many a time.
