Some Urgent Needs of the Capital.

The Army and Navy football game will not be
rlaved in Washington this year. and probably not for
a number of years to come This city might have
been chosen as the permanent place OF contest-al-
most certainly it would have been agreed to play the
game here for the FIVE six years-f the Capt.
tai had been able to offer suitable field with the
necessary seating capacity.
The convention of the Railway Supply Men of the
United States will not be held in Washington next
June, as it probably would have been if the Capital
had been able to offer a hall large enough for the
gathering and the exhibits.
Is it not time for Washington to itself and
take advantage OF the opportunities for material bene
fit which are constantly presenting themselves because
of its position as the Capital of the country? Here
are two important events to be held elsewhere be-
cause Washington is big enough and enterprising
enough to equip itself for the entertainment of the
people who are really anxious to come here The
football game would bring from 10000 to 10000
visitors to Washington, many of whom would take
advantage of the occasion to spend few days or
perhaps a week in the Capital Each year the num-
Der would be likely to increase and the many attrac
tions of Washington a permanent winter resort
would be certain to appeal hundreds of the we-to-
do The convention of the railway supply men also
would have brought here in the spring thousands of
most desirable class of visitors Special efforts
now being made by business men and the public
spirited citizens to induce people who usually spend
the winters abroad to come to the Capital this year.
and these efforts have served emphasize the rea-
sons why the Capital has not yet approached its
rightful position as a great winter gathering place
for people of wealth and fashion Not only is it
lacking in amusements and attractions outside of the
permanent institutions of the government, but it is

CHURCH PICTURE SHOWS.

Among the developments of the present
time one which is so foreign to long
established church custom as naturally
to attract much attention is the apph-
cation for the Incorporation OF COM
many whose purpose Is to furnish moving
pictures for church societies. Among the
incorporators are several prominent di-
vines, and the declared purpose OF the
organization is to give free entertain
ment and instructive moving picture
shows in churches and other places.
That a sentiment favoring the use OF
the moving picture In church work among
the young is growing is evident from
the foregoing action. for the incorpora-
ton OF such a company doubtless comes
II the purpse OF supplying recognized
demand. More advanced thinkers in the
cf urch, realizing the attractiveness to
the children Of the movies believes that
Bible stories may be profitably and con-
yincIngly told through this medium. They
feel that 1t would quicken the interest
in Sunday school teaching as, II has
been shown, has been done In teaching
geography in the public schools.
Then, aside from its educational value,
there is a desire to give the children in
teresting entertainment amid wholesome
surroundings. There has been more or
less criticism against the alleged de-
moralIzing influences OF the films in COM
mercisI picture houses. Doubtless free
picture shows OF highly moral charac-

by European powers with American manufacturers
shows that presently conditions may readjust
themselves by means to the disadvantage of this
