NOVEL MOVIE" USES
Films to Be Employed in Educa-
tionaI Work.
Great Railroad Will Use Them TO
Show Result of Workman's Care
lessness-Hope to Get Scenes
Showing Wars Horrors.

The New York Central railroad has
had a moving picture play" construct
ed around the story of a trainman's
carelessness which resulted in an ac-
cident in which he was injured. and
his family left needy. It has been
carted around the great system and
shown to employees, on whom 1t made
a great impression. Other roads are
going to borrow the films and carry
the show over their lines, as a means
OF intoxicating the solid principles and
lessons Of the safety first" campaign.
It is announced that a series OF
moving picture shows will be provided
at the Panama-Pacific exposition In
San Francisco, to illustrate work of
the government departments. The de-
partment of agriculture has for some
time been doing experimental work,
looking to the extensive use of moving
pictures to educate farmers, chicken
raisers. dairymen, and Others in prop
er methods. The public health service
work is especially susceptible to this
kind OF presentation in the effort to
educate the public.
Commercial concerns have been
studying the publicity possibilities Of
the films for a long time, and they
are using them in some ways; but
their use for pure commercial adver-
Using has not thus far been made
very effective 1t is in the realm OF
educational effort that they carry
their lesson most effectively.

Walter Long, One Of the 6est-known
Leading "Heavies," Administers
Rebuke That Must Have Stung.

Walter Long, one OF the leading
"heavies" with the Reliance and Ma
jestic Mutual organizations, believes
that he Is the discoverer of the stingi-
est man in the world.
Long is a powerful swimmer At
the beginning of the summer season
he was named as one of the NUM-
cipal life guards at Ocean park, work
ing on Sundays and holidays when
the crowds at the beach were the
largest.
A swimmer who went out beyond
the breaker line became caught in a
rip tide and shouted for help. Long
went to his assistance. and. after a
hard struggle with the big breakers.
succeeded in bringing the near drown
ing man ashore, where he was revived.
A short time later the rescued man,
nattily dressed in his street clothes
and wearing big diamond. appeared
and thanked Long for saving his life.
Here, have a good cigar on me-" said
the rescued individual as he proffered
Long a dime. Long was on his way to
purchase sandwich and had five-
cent piece In his hand.
He accepted the proffered ten cents
and returned the nickel with the state
ment, Here is your change" The
man whom Long rescued accepted the
FIVE cents and then beat a hasty re-
treat. Long has nailed the dime to
the wall OF his dressing room as a
memento OF the occasion.

WAITS CHANCE TO GET EVEN
Popular Film Actress Is Thinking Up
Schemes for Dire Revenge for
Practical Joke.

Lillian Walker, the athletic girl OF
the Vitagraph company, and Billy
Quirk, the boy comic, are now sworn
enemies, the enmity dating from 90
tober 1. Billy, knowing OF Miss Walk
ers antipathy for snakes, played a
joke on her that resulted in the pres
ent cessation of friendship between
the popular pair. and now, Miss
Walker says, that until she can think
up something severe enough to war
rant retaliation, and carry It through
to success, they will not speak as they
pass by In their automobiles.
Billy secured a property snake,
which was as lifelike as human in
genuity could make 1t. He placed the
imitation snake In the new pump in
the studio yard and, by alluring tales
OF the cooling and refreshing prop
critics OF the water, induced Miss
Walker to pump herself a glass.
It took only few motions of the
pump handle for the snake to ap-
pear and as IL came wiggling from
the spout, Miss Walker emitted a
piercing shrek and. woman-like,
tainted. Billy, frightened at the re-
suit of his joke, ran for help but just
as he returned, Miss Walker revived,
and waving aside Billy's proFered as
sistance, walked majestically to her
dressing-room, where she spent the
rest of the day bordering on the
exact form OF vengeance to be melted
out to her tormentor.

PHONE COMPANIES
ALLOWED To MERGE
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE AT
WASHINGTON GIVES
CONSENT.
UNION DESIRED BY PATRONS
Properties Michigan State Telephone
Co. in Branch and ST. Joseph
Counties to Be Taken over
BY Independent Co.

Lansing-The STATE railroad COM
mission has authorized the merger of
the Michigan State Telephone Co.
properties in Branch and st. Joseph
counties with those of the Southern
Michigan Telephone Co., whereby the
independent company takes over the
interests of the Bell, and the Southern
Michigan comes In control of the tele-
phone business of the counties.
The decision of the railroad commits
sion was based on an opinion received
from the department of justice at
Washington in which the federal de-
partment holds that the merger is
not in violation OF the Sherman anti
trust law and which places the Mich
igan railroad commission in the posi-
tion of being authorized in the future
to allow consultations of telephone
companies without fear of the federal
law.
The opinion of the federal depart
ment gives the railroad commission
one of the most sweeping authorize
tons that has been made in recent
years and paves the way for the
commission to go ahead and allow
mergers that have been tied up for a
year pending the result of the depart
ment of Justices attitude in these
matters.
The merger involves not only the
Michigan State and Southern Michi-
gan properties in the two counties,
but certain properties of the Three
Rivers Telephone Co. and properties
of the five other small companies, all
independently owned.
Several months ago a petition was
received by the railroad commission
signed by over 5000 subscribers of
the companies who desired the COM
mission to authorize the merger on
the grounds that there were to many
companies in the district and one
company would be ample to do the
business.

STATE SUES POSTS ESTATE
Amount of Inheritance Tax Depends
On Residence of Late Millionaire.

Lansing-The state of Michigan
Saturday through Acknowledgement
Fellows started suit by which it hopes
to obtain an amount between $780,
600 and $125,000 or double those
amounts from the seven legatees of
the estate of the late c. w. Post of
Battle Creek, who died in California,
May 9.
The amount rests on whether Mr.
Post was a resident of Michigan, or
Washington, ID. c., as claimed by
those who inherited his estate.
Should it be proved that he is a
nonresident, the state will collect ap-
proximately 100000 to $125,000 and
If IL should be proved that he was a
resident of this state, the state will
collect an amount nearly double that.
The will as filed, shows that Mr..
Post was a resident of Washington,
where he owned a home, yet the state
contends that Michigan was his resi-
dence, despite the fact he owned
home at the national capital. The es-
tate is said to be close to $21, 1000, 900,
of which about $18,00O,OO0 was in
personal property.
The money collected will be turned
over to the primary school fund OF
the state.
