Motion pictures are not used as much
as they ought to be in public schools and
institutions. A motion picture outfit
wouldn't cost a very great amount of
money to install in every grammar and
high school, and once installed the cost of
maintaining it would be insignificant.
The getting of proper subjects or films
would be an easy matter, especially such
subjects as pertain directly to our school
work.
The works of almost every great author
and poet are now portrayed in motion pic

Publicity in newspapers and maya
zines to the amount of 100000 inches
year on tuberculosis and its preven-
tion is being given by the press OF the
United States, according to an esti'
mate issued recently by the National
Association for the Study and Preven-
ton OF tuberculosis. If all the pub
licity on tuberculosis given by the
press OF this country gathered in one
paper, the National Association esti-
mates 1t would make paper of over
$3.50 pages. In the last four years,
during which time an active publicity
campaign has been carried on, the
National Association estimates that
over 100000 inches, or over 80 miles
OF press notices on tuberculosis have
been published.
Publicity is the very heart of the
educational campaign against -tuber-
culosis," says DR.. Livingston Farrand.
the executive secretary of the national
association. Largely because of the
intelligent cooperation of the press
has the anti-tuberculosis movement in
this country been able to become, as
1t is, the greatest organized movement

What hat had you in mind for Mrs

THAT little gray one over there
would look good on her.

taking the hat from the case. 'Tt

Henry caught sight of the price
mark. 1t was $3.50. He stopped Miss
Morgan with wave of his hand

suit her style of beauty at all. That

Miss Morgan put the blue one on
Mrs. Granmore's head. and as she did
so Henry observed the price ticket.

To exercise his expert judgment he

his head sagely.
II know without her trying this one
on that 1t would make her look too
dark" he said. "She needs a hat to
bring out her natural beauty and not
to hide it."
Mrs. Granmore stood by meekly.
while Henry had hat after hat brought
out for his inspection. One after the
other he condemned. This one had
too wide a brim, that one was too
narrow; this one was overturned,
that one was too plain-but each and
all of them bore pricemarks that gave
Henry chills of the heart.

like it might have been made for her.

"He says it is HAS, papa"
"Then ask him If he doesn't think it

Another moment of silence.
"He says, papa" the silvery voice

Modern Problems.

prosperity win be required to get rid
of it?

one thousand trusts, what would now
be the cost of living if we had two
antitrust laws?

sang in the choir for two
years, and naturally it was
a polite act at the first for him to eff
fer to escort her home after choir
practice.
This got to be a habit with him.
until one evening he experienced
peculiar shock. Another man appear
ed at the choir rehearsal and listened
with evident enjoyment to the sing
ing. and then calmly walked away
with Miss Lewis.
Shocks OF this sort are salutary to
the young man in love. Without them
he takes the affair in too much of a
matter of course way. He simply
drifts.
The drifting lover is not a satisfac-
tory one to girl. The tide of his af-
fection may be smooth enough, but 1t
does not get anywhere. Women like
the ambitious. aggressive man.
And certainly. from the feminine
standpoint, aggressiveness and ambi-
tion are never more aptly exercised
than in the effort to win her hand.
Winning a hand is different from hold
ing it as though it were inherited
property.
The other man was Hollicker. Hol-
Ticker was man who formulated
campaign as soon as he decided upon
its object.
Consequently he had maneuvred SO
that Perkins had had mighty few mo-
ments with Miss Lewis.
And she enjo.ed it. No matter how
much girl thinks of man. she must
enjoy his desperation and despair
when he sees another man apparently
winning her away from him. 1t is this
elusiveness in woman nature that con-
stitutes large part of her human ma
ture.
Perkins wanted to propose now,
badly enough. But he needed the
chance. This Easter morning when
the choir arose to sing the anthem he
looked over the congregation and he
gritted his teeth when he saw Hol-
Ticker sitting right in the Lewis pew.
Mechanically he took up his part of
the anthem, and as he sang an in
spiration came to him. He and Miss

and held all the attention of the audi

and Miss Lewis sang
Instead of the words on the page be-
fore him he touched her elbow with
his and softly sang:
"Am never to have a chance
| Never to have a chance
| A chance to speak to you alone?"

alarm. She could not believe she had
heard him Alright. He returned her
glance and again sang:

MOOSE NOW HAS
SALOON IN CHICAGO

It has been learned that Harry
Moose. former city clerk of Gary and
a star witness for the state in the
bribery trials. who disappeared under
mysterious circumstances last winter,
is now the proprietor OF big saloon
in West Madison street. in Chicago
Besides being owner of the thirst en-
portum Moose is taking a hand in
helping out one of the shifts of bar
tenders and is dealing out cooling
beverages this hot weather. The place
is described as an expensive looking
establishment. Moose acquired the
place following his disappearance
Just where Moose got the money to
carry on his purchasing operations is
a matter not yet disclosed, but he is
said to have been flush with green
backs when he left Detroit and Wis
tied with Mayor Knots. Bill Cain and
others at an Indianapolis hotel just
before the bribery trial ended.
