SOUTHERN BISHOP WILL
HEAD MOVIE CONCERN
BUT THE PICTURES WILL BE Ed
TCATIONAL AND INSTRUCTIVE
AND THE CHURCHES AND
SCHOOLS WILL BE HIS PATRONS
WOULD USE MOVIES TO UP
LIFT MASSES.

New York, August lit was an
nounced today at the headquarters of
the Church and School Social Service
uBreau at Is East list Street, that
Rev. E. R. Hendrix, D. D. LII. D., Bish-
op of the Methodist Episcopal Church
South, would be supervisor of the
Biblical Department Of the Advisory
Board of the Bureau. He will be as
ISOLATED with President Hibben of
Princeton University, Supervisor of
the Educational Department; DR.. JOS
iah Strong, head of the Sociological
Department; DR.. Francis Brown, of
the Department of Oriental Manners
and Customs; and Dr. Edward Judson,
of the Missionary Department.
Something of the plan and scope of
the Bureau was outlined by the Duke
of Manchester, who is international
Vice President of the Bureau.
First, you ought to know" said
the Duke, That the Bureau is not at
all commercial enterprise. AS its
name indicates, it it an organization
for Social Service. There is no stock
for public sale, all of it having been
taken up by those who are interested
in the movement. We shall, of course
have to conduct our work on bust
ness basis, but the main object is to
afford to schools and churches the en-
joyment of the social, educational and
religious advantages to be gained by
the use of high class and high art mo-
ton pictures in their work. We will
make the cost to them as low as is
compatible with first class service.
"The money making side of the mo-
ton picture business has been sufici-
emily exploited It's educational pos
sibilities have been neglected. Our
plan is a very comprehensive one. 1t
includes the purchase of a large COL
lection of desirable pictures for rental
and also of several hundred motion
picture machines, as it is our purpose
to install full equipment for -projec-
ton free of cost for those who will use
our films.
AS to the details of our work our
President, DR.. William Carter, can tell
you more than T."
He turned to DR.. Carter who said:
Our main object is to renew the
interest of the people in church work
and to help the church in reaching a
larger number of people.
cat the same time we hope to aid in
making the school more of a social
center and to furnish it with new
means of instruction. We want to aid
religious education and social welfare
workers by putting at their command
the most popular and effective instra-
mentality of our day.
1--WE have already organized a force
Of experts in the various branches Of
the motion picture business who will
look after the details of the service
We are prepared to furnish weekly
program which will consist of FIVE
reels on different subjects; education
al, religion, travel, fiction, comedy,
and high class drama.
In addition to furnishing a com
plete equipment for projection we will
send an expert to install it and teach
some local man to operate 1t.
"As soon as possible we will begin

Vote For Him

He stands for justice to he south: 80.
He IS against Federal Judges holding ONCE
for life.
He advocates better and cheaper credits for
farmers.
He is heartily in favor of Government aid
in building good roads
He is opposed to the Northern Pension
Fraud and against negro holding any office,
He advocates Legislation clearly defining the
Peonaqe statutes SO that the Southern Farmers
will not be subject to Federal prosecutions when
they seek to enforce their rights against shttIess
negro farm labor
Remember he led the fight to abolish Con-
vict leasing and fathered the bill to place Con
victs on the public roads, dealing death blow
to convict competition with Free Labor. He has
left behind him on the statute books the record
of constructive statesman and an honest cour-

General he established prece dent by refusing
to accept special fees for work performed torthe

II is believed here that, if the Ger
mans finally abandon their present
base they are unlikely to attempt to
hold a new line in the north of France.
Their left and left center continues its
efforts against the strong French fort
resses in the eastern frontier region,
plainly with the hope of demolishing
them. so that, if a straight westward
offensive movement is undertaken later
il will not be hampered by the reduc'
tion of fortihcations.

IL was stated at the War Office today
that at the request of the Austrian
commander of Przemysl an armistice of
five hours was granted, during which
time all of the non-combatants left the
city. It is stated that the lombard
meut of the five main forts which fur
nish the chief defenses was then re-
sumed. II is admitted the Austrians
are putting up an excellent defense here
and it viii be a lengthy task to reduce
the forts by bombardment, it being ad-

Other than the election of Major

meeting yesterday afternoon trans
acted little business.
The committee took no action upon
the resignation of General r. Cole

publican National Committee, and it
is not expected that any action will
be taken. The subject was not men
toned at the meeting. Efforts are
being made, 1t is understood, to pre-
vail upon General DUPONT to with
draw his resignation.
An entirely new plan was adopted
for the meetings of the State Com
mittee, and thereafter the committee
will meet in various parts OF the
State so that the members of the
State Committee and the members
Of the local committees may keep in
touch. The first meeting under this
plan will be held in Dover on Oc-

lery is not now in action.
AS a matter of fact there were
more evidences of content and relief
in Paris military circles today than
at any time since the turning point
was reached in the battle of the
Marne. It is declared that the pres
ent situation parallels the last two
days Of the battle OF the Marne, just
before the German center abandoned
its desperate effort to penetrate the
French lines at Vitry-Le-Francois
and began the retreat. There is,
however, no disposition prematurely
to proclaim a victory. 10 Is felt
that the advantage of position now
is with the allies and that if IL is
sustained, the German resistance
must soon lose much of its force.
In fact It is stated positively that
reports of the French-British avi-
ators who have reconnoitered the
German position show indications OF
retrograde movement. The heavy
siege guns have in certain places
been withdrawn to the extreme base
This is plainly precautionary

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu- tional remedies. Deafness is caus- ed by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or i'm perfect hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to it's normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever: nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
 We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir culars free.
