on the films ordinarily eliminate most OF those
which openly offend propriety but there is
less care used to eliminate also the monstrosi-
ties which appeal to the adventurous instincts
of youth and glorify cut-throat deeds and

The moving picture men themselves are
coming to recognize the need of intelligent
censorship and are receding from their atti-
tude of fiat opposition. An evidence of this
is contained in "The Triangle" moving
picture periodical published by the Triangle
Film Company, one of the great producers of
movies. This paper says in recent issue:
''At this time when the question of censor
ship is being agitated so freely, not alone in
the public press, but within the}circes of civic
Improvement leagues and women's clubs
throughout the country, it behooves the ex7
hibitor of motion pictures to be alert to what
is going on In thisa direction, for the history
of censorships has indicated very clearly that
while there are many excellent things to be
done by their aid, the decisions as to what
others may or may not do are not infre9uently
apt to be tinged with certain intolerances that
work harm, not alone to the interests affected,
but to the community at large where they are
operative.
s'Women''s clubs are interesting themselves
in motion pictures, not alone because they
have the interest of the community at heart,
but because they feel that the motion pictures
carry message directly into the home, and
influence the members of the family more than
any publication can possibly do. When there
is Indication of such activity the local motion
picture exhibitors may probably appoint a
committee to discuss the situation with the
women 8 clubs, and by, mutual explanations and
attempts to understand each others view
points, reach an adjustment that will not only
eliminate much dangerous hostility, but make
for better patronage. It is wise always to re-
that 80sper cent of the money expend
ed in maintaining households is expended by
women, and that given proper conditions a
large part Of this may find its way into the box
office of the motion picture theater. Under
standing and Cancellation are far better promo
ters of harmony than attack and antagonism. =

ORDER HAD HIM "IN THE AIR"
5oatswaIn's Mate Considerably Mud. died by Command That Was
 Entirely New to Him.

In all the naval services tradition Is strong. AS Chief Boatswain McCar- thy, U. S. N., has shown in an article in "The Proceedings of the United States Naval Institute" the adherence to cus- tom extends to the manner in which the boatswain's calls are varied for different occasions, and even, in the old navy, at least, it extended to the way in which the officers gave their orders.
 The language used in passing words was the vernacular of the sailor rather than academic English, and the officer who did not know that usually got poor results from the boatswain's mate, who had his own ideas about passing the word, and got muddled in Interpreting any unusual order.
 On one occasion, the officer of the morning watch gave this order: "Boatswain's mate, scrub down with rapidity." This was a new one, and after causing the officer to repeat the order three times, the boatswain's mate become desperate. He grabbed a deck bucket, and forced it into the hand of the nearest apprentice, whom he started on his way with push that sent the youngster reeling, and fol lowed him with this shout: .,
 "Go to the captain of the hold and ask him for a bucketful of it! I never heard of anythingito scrub a deck with but sand and lime, and I don't know anything about these neWs e'soogy- moodgies,' anyway" "-Youth's Com panion. .aseo4s 3.
