QUO. vAD|S COMING
NEXT WEDNESDAY

Imitation is said to be the sin
cerest fiattery. This is quite true
but cannot always be appreciated by
the public. The George Kleine pro.
duction of the Cines photo-drama
Quo Vadis" achieved a remarkable
success in New York, Philadelphia,
Boston, Chicago, Baltimore and
dozen other cities and inspired a
number of INSCRIPTIONS parties with
the idea of launching a much small
err and insignificant production on
the market and banking upon the
public credulity TO take advantage of
the immense advertising Mr. Kleine's
production has received. AS con-
sequence, many people who have
wished to see the big production
have been unsuspectingly drawn in
to witness the little on and without
thinking have passed judgment, This
is one of those unavoidable condi-
lions that arise under our present
social and legal status, and works
as much harm to the public at large
as it does to the producers who in
vest their fortunes in big enter
prises. The real George Kleine nro
duction of Quo Vadis" is presented
with eight parts or reels that are
divided into three acts and is only
played in the larger high class thea
tiers of the country and never at
prices less than so cents for orches

One of the good uses for moving pic
ture films is for recording historic
events. Not long ago the king of Rou-
mania ordered the production of a
film of no less than three thousand
yards length, this being a reproduction
of the Roumanian- -Russo-Turkish war,
which determined the Independence or
that country. The film will be kept
in the archives of the realm. In or
der to carry this out the army lent
eight thousand men in uniform with
arms and baggage, led by the officers.
Another case is that of the Italian
government, which is collecting all
the films taken during the war In
.rripoli. In England the same thing Is
done for the films of the kings coro-
nation events.

ing under the mayors charge which
would have anything of any amount TO
be purchased. l can find no provision IN
the charter authorizing any onhclal 70
purchase anything for the city with the
exception of the mayor and purchasing
agent, and If the mayor is responsible
for the purchasing department, 1t GER
tainly is not proper for the heads or the
several departments, as well as many OF
the subordinate officers to purchase any
thing and everything and at any time OF
place that they see fit. In this cohnec-
ton 1t would seem proper to suggest q
revision of all the old ordinances ano
the passage of such new ones as nave
been or may be found necessary to the
proper carrying out of the provisons
of our present charter. ,
One very essential one, Which mas
been called to my attention Is an ordl.
nance defining the powers and duties oil
the purchasing agent.
No doubt this and many others nave OF
will occur to you. Just word ABOUT ouf
appropriations. 1 think we should bear
in mind the fact that our expenditures
are increasing faster than our vaIua-
ton, and that our tax rate Is as high as
the majority of our people can pay with
out hardship, but there are other appro,
priations which should be made as liberia
as possible. l refer to schoolS, seWers
and sidewalks. There is tendency
among ala classes of people at the pres
ent time to give the children better ed
ucation. This is shown in our. city by
the increased attendance in all grades
while our population remains about the
same
The sidewalk appropriation should be
larger than last year, as it would seen
to be of much more Importance that oui
sidewalks, which are used by everyone
old and young, should be kept in SAFE
and passable condition before making I'M
provements on our roads, as the pei
centage of people who ride is very sinai
when compared to those who walk.
The sewer appropriation also should ot
larger than last year We have grea
many places In our city that are men
ace to the health of our people, and W.
have been very fortunate in the pas
that we have had no severe epidemics o.
contagious diseases. II while making VI
our appropriations for the year we nne
we can, without increasing the tax rate
make some arrangement whereby oul
main street can be lighted in more sat
isfactory and up-to-date manner thlni
it should be done, IS nearly all oui
neghboring cities have already made de
cided improvements in their lighting sys
TEN. In conclusion would say that
think the fate of commission governmen
in our city depends somewhat upon u
and upon our Interpretation of the char
ter. and as we conduct the affairs of th
CITY for 1914 will determine to some ex
tent what action, if any, will be takel
by the people at the next meeting OF TN
LEGISLATURE.
