He started the sensation by ad-

day school scholar who would bring

and has announced that his next in

He says he is doing these things
to keep the young people from at
tending the moving picture shows on
sunday and he is not ashamed of
anything he has done.
This seems to be carrying matters
considerably too far. 1t is almost as
bad as the preacher who was seen
at horse race. When asked why
he happened to be there. he replied:
Why, | Just came to see how these
iniquitous affairs are conducted so

fortunately, It never lasts very long.
