IHAW RECEIVES GREAT OVATION
 IN PITTSBURGH

Pittsburgh, July 19.-Harry K. Thaw is at home tonight for the first time in nine years.
 A tremendous ovation was rendered him on his arrival at 6:25 this even ing, as he emerged from the train from Philadelphia.
 police escort forced a way for him through the cheering crowd to a waiting automobile in which he was driven to his home.
 His mother, attired in an all white gown for the first time since the shooting of Stanford White, received him with open arms. Leaping from the car while the crowd darted across the lawn from all directions, Thaw threw himself into his mothers arms.
 An instant later he was swallowed up in the throng. Fighting his way out, he .beckoned to him the party of newspaper men who had accompanied him from New York.
 'I want to say this," said Thaw. ITO return to Pittsburgh has been my desire for so long, that I do not find words to express myself. Now I am home and also I want to thank my friends, so many of them, for helping toward this success, that nov I can name but one-my mother"

Tho Pineapple In England.

Pineapples. which Londoners can now buy at the cheapest rate within living memor-, first reached England In th> latter part of the seventeenth century. The fruit was thus novelty to Sir Christopher Wren's generation; but he soon recognized its value as an architectural ornament. and copper pineapples about five feet high figure prominently on the towers of St Paul's So highly did Wren esteem the fine proportions and enriched sur face of this fruit that his original de sign for St. Paul's shows an enormous pineapple in the place of the dome Happily his maturer thoughts saved us from that appalling spectacle. Since Wren tho pineapple has been as much at home in our architecture as on our dinner tables. It has descended even to cast iron. and is frequently found in streets. Queen Victoria treasured a seal given by her husband on which pineapple was engraved. together with the motto. "Sa gloire u'est pas 30 couronne." Mall 0e settA

The Growth of the Movie
~ on. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915. by Frank CraneI

A recent resume of the moving picture
business in one of the periodicals states
that during the Worlds Columbian Elk
position of 1893 Edison's kinetoscope,
continuance for showing photographs in
motion to one person only for about 30
seconds at q time, was displayed to the
public. Three years late, Sir Augustus
Harris installed Robert Paul's Theatre
graph" at Olympia, machine funda-
mentally the same as the biosc0pe OF To-
day. Contemporaneously with Mr.. Paurs
efforts French inventors We're developing
the cinematograph, machine which was
installed at the Eden Musee, New York.
during the autumn of 1896.
Only 10 years have passed, therefore,
since the theatrical debut of the motion
picture, yet today the business of pur-
veying motion pictures theatrically to the
American people is computed to be the
fifth largest industry in the United
States. Nearly a million people of all
ages and of both sexes attend daily the
moving picture theatres of Greater New
York alone, the attendance throughout
the other cities of the country being pro-
portionally universal and no hamlet too
small to be the home of movie" thea
ter. Indeed, the motion-picture play. Tar
more than the stage play, has become the
amusement of the nation Beside the cir
culation of a photoplay that of q best
seller" or even that Of popular 10-cent
magazine, becomes insignificant.
There is no more significant subject
than amusements for the publicist to
consider.
People can learn more at play than
they do at work. AS Emerson said, q
boy learns more from the book under the
desk than he learns from the book on the
desk.
Our character is moulded more by
laughter than by tears, more by dreams
than by study.
The photoplay. therefore, is tremen-
dous agency among those activities by
which the people come to self-expression.
! Only by continuously and freely ex-
pressing themselves do people progress.
The theater has always been an impor-
tant factor in the trying out and estab-
fishing of moral convictions.
1t has been condemned because it has
unrestrictedly set forth the whole gamut
of human passions and emotional and
ideal forces. But it has steadily correct
ed ITSELF because evil and destructive
ideas and feelings have only to be openly
portrayed to lose their appeal.
The good lasts. The only evil that re-
tains its fascination is that which is sup
pressed.
Given fair field and no favor, good
and wholesome shows thrive. while NOR
bid and unclean shows pass.
| Good showmen know this.
The social stream purifies itself when
! it is not damned up.
| The movies have permanent and a
deserved place among the amusements
of the public.

Public Speaking Aids Self
Development.
nv n. AoDiNoToN BRUCE.
Author OF The Riddle of Personality"
Psychology and Parcnthood." etc.

Everybody ought to be able to speak fairly
well in public. Most men are not
Their awkwardness is due to timidity and the
timidity in turn Is due to realization that they
do not know how to speak. Few. however. make
any attempt to learn the principles OF public
speaking
ret all OF US should do so. for several reasons.
| Ability TO speak we'll In public is an asset 10
any man. as making him more widely and moro
favorably known.
Enlarging a mans sphere OF influence, II en-.

good OF other people--one OF the fundamental
principles OF human existence.
Also. and OF the highest personal importance,
| THE MENTAL DISCIPLINE NECESSARY
TO ACQUIRE ABILITY IN PUBLIC SPEAK.
| ING MAKES FOR SUPERINTENDENT IN
GENERAL AND MENTAL DEVELOPMENT IN
PARTICULAR
| One OF the first requisites OF a really success
full public speaker is the power to marshal and
| present facts In logical train OF thought. This
is power inherent In the reasoning faculty Of
every normal man. but comparatively few men
make habitual use OF It,
Most men. In fact. are conspicuous for their
deficiency In logical thinking. They seldom
reason closely from cause TO effect. They sell
dom base their judgments on wellreasoned
facts.
Often they form judgments which are faulty
simply because they have not taken the trouble
to think logically about them.
But the public speaker who would speak real
ly well must be logical. Obviously therefore,
the more man. by study and exercise. perfects
himself in logical thinking for the purposes OF
public speech. the more easily and habtually he
will think logically in everyday life.
Still further, TO speak effectively In public,
one must not only think clearly. lie must also
express himself clearly.
IL ne does not he will leave his hearers hope

ly for the meaning Of his words.
Clearness OF expression depends chiefly on
simplicity and directness Of statement. The
man who tries earnestly to gain these qualities
will find that In proportion rs he gains these
he has grown In mental vigor
Clear, accurate speech indeed OF itself makes
for clarity OF thought; so that training in clear.
ness of expression Increases the power OF log
ical thinking.
Finally, a man may be able to think logically
and express himself clearly. but he will never
become a first-class speaker UNLESS HE HAS
SOMETHING WORTH SAYING.
Training for public speaking thus involves the
| exercise Of discriminative judgment with re.
spect to matters which are worth thinking and
talking about.
II consequently enIarges the critical faculty.
and tends TO make a man increasingly appre.
| ciative Of the higher realities Of life. and de-
| creasingly interested in and influenced by the
| petty. the sordid, and the ignoble.
All OF which sssuredly bears out my initial
statement--that everybody ought to be able 10
speak fairly well In public.

The Sugar Industry Makes
Hawaiian Islands Prosperous

One Of Detroit's prominent busi-
ness men has just returned from the
Hawaiian Islands with a fund OF
information not generally known.
He reports the islands as having a
great financial future through the
sugar and pineapple industries and
also the production OF coffee which
Is just beginning TO be cultivated.
Sugar is the main source of rev.
enue and plantations OF 5000 10 T.
600 acres are owned and operated
by different syndicates, the stock
being largely held by the people OF
the Pacific coast.
The crop from 1000 acres will
total $4,000 tons. and while former

the cane was so per cent. the mills
have been so improved by the scien-
tiic vacuum OF boiling that the yield

used for fuel to generate the power
for the mills and nothing is wasted.
The labor employed is almost en-
tirely Chinese and japanese coolie

ploys 1900 men whose average
wage Is s22 per month, rude shacks
being provided for their shelter.

No sugar is refined on the islands
as the climate is not conductive to

The country Is being irrigated

Is Snoozing in the Park An
Offense Against Anybody!

| If you sit down in the park (any PARK
as far as we know be careful not to fall
asleep. Though you may be able to SIT
holt upright and still indulge in little
slumber its AGAINST THE RULES,
and YOU may be snatched in the slack OF

If YOU don'vpstep off lively and not

An innocent looking man had the mis-
fortune to go to sleep on bench yester-
day at noon, and although he was not
intoxicated and seemed perfectly decent,
that is what happened to him.
Perhaps he had no place to sleep; per-
haps the "place" was so uninviting that
he preferred the pure air of the out
doors: perhaps he was worn out or half
sick: perhaps he was just discouraged,
which is the most deadly poison to the
human system that there is-the rule
worked just the same and he was awak-
ened by policeman.
The caretaker of the park said all this
careful attention was given to protect
women and children and respectable
people," but the only way the caretaker
has of distinguishing a MAN from a
TOUGH, it would seem, is by his
clothes.
This mans clothes were old and soiled
but he was as unoffending as the birds
around the fountain.
Respectable people" of the caretak-
er's variety, have places out of doors
where they can breathe the fresh air and
and enjoy little quiet.
The parks are not especially necessary
to them, but to the poor man in a
wretched lodging or with no lodging at
all, they are necessity.
1t is the one place where he can get
back to nature and feel himself man
and not mere atom in the social scheme
which we have evolved and in which he
has lost out.
To what better use can we put the
parks than for places where citizen.
with full power of suffrage, may feel that
he is at home, as long as he does nothing
to offend the public peace?

The Worst Is Behind.

Conservative and radical are beginning
to agree that the nation has emerged
from the darkest of the depression night
mare.
In every line of industry an improve
ment is seen and hundreds of thousands
of workers in the last few weeks have re-
turned to their places
Foreign buying orders started the
movement that has resulted in hundreds
of dark factories being agleam. and in
the greatest agricultural activity in the
nations history.
With industrial affairs and public work
striking their stride, and the greatest
harvest coming in our generation the fu-
ture looks good; if we have learned the
lessons of frugality, household economies
and living within our means, when we
have any, we will have profited much
more than we have lost by the two lean
years.
And if we have learned to live happily
and in content without regarding so
much the accidental chances of material
fortune we have conquered the real prob
lem, for life is more than raiment, and
to live is beyond meat and the swift rush.
