DR.. WHITE LAUDS
QUO VADIS' FILM
Thanks Georgian for Invitation to
Atlanta Ministers to Witness
Wonderful Picture.
BY REV. JOHN z. WHITE.

l owe The Georgian double thanks for
the letter Of opportunity TO see the
great pictures Of QUO Vadis," because
Ct double value I got out Of it, Every
thing is grist to preachers mill and
] needed the suggestion of "Quo Vadis''
for my sermon Sunday and seized on il
to Illustrate The Inevitable Christ %
who met Peter on the Appian Way and
turned him back to duty and death.
Then I went with my family TO see the
pictures
A friend who is in the picture film
business had told me they marked the
a als achievement in the great mod
ern art Of the movies" ] am pre-
pared to believe II. The pictures them
selves, characterize and matchmaking
the lnterpretative texts, running as a
chain to bind the high points Of the
story together; and the marked religious
purpose Of the drama left nothing want
ing TO the best literature and the best
teaching.
These picures of QUO vadis" along
side OF the recent presentation of The
Manager to the Cross" have impressed
me with the vast possibilities of the
moving pictures as a method Of teach
ing truth. When people can sit for
three hours, with three S-minute oppor-
tunities for going home, 70 follow a
deeply religious presentation and be alb
Sorbed every minute, to the last il
suggests to me that the trouble much
complained Of among the preachers of
slender and sleepy congregations may
be the lack of pictures in our sermons.
The Georgian rendered to the minis
tiers of Atlanta thoughtful and kindly
service. | am glad to acknowledge my
share Of the benefit.

Money isn't everything in the
