SUPT. WILSON MAKES GOOD REC
oMMENDATioN.

Hon r. II. Wilson, state superin
tendent Of education, has filed his re
port and recommendations with Gov.
elect Williams. Much of the repor,
and most of the recommendations deal
with purely school matters, but there
IL one paragraph in the report which
ought to be read and re-read and then
Given the hearty support Of the public
generally This is the portion of his
report dealing with moving pictures.
Mr.. Wilson recommends
THAT a more rigid censorship be
required OF all moving picture shows
which school children are permitted
to see, and that nothing of licen-
tious or outlawry nature be shown be-
fore the schildren of school age"
The state has been flooded with pic.
lures portraying' such people as AL
Jennings, for the past few months.
Since the publication of jennings
Beating Back" In the Saturday Even
ing Post, and the exhibition of the
Jennings pictures, bank robberies
have increased many fold in this state.
At least one would-be bank robber
confessed, when apprehended, that he
had seen the Jennsings pictures. had
read the Jennings stuff, and thought
that the public regarded Jennings as
hero. He was emulating Jennings.
and frankly stated that he wanted to
be bank robbing hero This was a
poor country boy of eighteen or nine
teen years old. We believe the law
ought to provide against showing pic
turesssof outlawry In this state, and
everyone will agree that licentious pic.
lures ought not to be shown. n.--Musko-
gee Times-Democrat
To all of which we wish to record a
hearty amen" and then some Mr.
Wilson never offered better sugges-
tion and il is to be hoped that the
powers that be will take steps to put il
into effect. The movies are with us
and they are here to stay They havs
become a powerful educational force
Every day millions OF old and young
are influenced by the scenes set forth
by the films. The possibilities ol
these pictures for the good and evi
are almost unlimited. To the impress
sionable mind Of the young the influ
ence Of the kind of pictures which Mr.
Wilson opposes is bound to be demor
alizing. The city and the state ar.
doing nothing more than plain duty

SUBSCRIPTIONS RATES:
BACK ON THE JOB.

After a months vacation we are
back on the job again today and be-
fore entering upon the solemn duties
Of the sanctum we want to adopt a
unanimous vote Of thanks to the
boys" for the good work which they
did during our absence.
Candidly. we can't see that our
readers lost anything while the "ed.
pro TEN" was presiding over the Ex-
press. Among the lessons which We
learn by taking a vacation is one of
increased humility Probably all of US
over-estimate the Importance Of the
place that we fill in this busy world.
1t really isn't surprising when we dip
our finger into the ocean and remove
it to see that the place is Immediately
filled, while the waves and tides go
surging on, apparently taking no no
tice of the incident But sometimes
we are disposed to fancy that we are
indispensable to the work which some
unseen power assigns to us In the
world When we drop out for time
we find that we we're mistaken and
we are forcibly reminded of the fact
that after all every individual, includ-
ing such high and mighty fellow as

Mr.. J. Edwin Pool our genial
oscar" was the man who piloted the
Express during our absence and we
hereby tender to him and his faithful
assistants our heartfelt thanks for
their services. They were sitting
there" all the time and we are proud
Of them
The only fault we have to find with
Oscar is that he failed to carry out
the only positive order that we gave
him. We instructed him to wind up
the war while we were away and every
day we expected to hear that the great
conflict had ben called off. However,
we found it raging briskly everywhere
we went and the warriors are still
at it on our return.
But we are not going to grouchy
over it. No doubt the young man did
the best he could to compose the sit
nation and perhaps we were expect
ing too much of him. II is a pretty
hard job to quell whole continent o.
lunatics. 1t is discouraging and dis
tressing but our readers will have to
put up with 1t and await with all the
unanimity they can command the re
turn of the era of sanity and ciyiliza
ton.

Loclett, Barrett and Palmer Sure
 Two Bid for Other Place.
 New York, April 1.-Information received from Madrid, where the English polo team is practising for the international match with Amer ica, is to the effect that the team is pretty nearly decided on. Capt. Vivian Lockett, back of the last team that came in quest of the cup. will again play in that position, with Capt. Bar rett, No. 3, and Capt. Palmer, No. 2. The No. 1 is still in doubt, with Capt Tomkinson and Capt. Lannowe both candidates.
 It is expected that the team will leave for this country on May 1 and the British hopes of success have grown because of the excellent prac- tice of men and ponies. There were seventy ponies in the string at Mad rid, and these will be culled to fifty of the best to be shipped to this country. The Britishers consider it a good omen that the stiff work at Madrid has been conducted without a single accident. The men have be- come accustomed to each others S style of play, and in this respect will be much more forward than last years team, which had no work of any consequence before coming to America.
