In the columns of your Sunday pap

 Sunday entertainment. In the first place unless the film is one that is en- dorsed by the order it should not have any endorsement from members of the order. and in the second place, the order of Knights of Pythias does not endorse or encourage Sunday enter
 tainments of any kind. That the peo-
 ne may know the principles and policy of the order I here quote as much of
 Paragraph 370 of the Supreme Statutes of the order as is applicable: No body

 In Massachusetts money for the roads and the schools is spent with the greatest As little possible wasted. The machinery is efficient that there is little lost motion In California, though schools excellent there is said be characteristic open -handedness that does take close of expenditures. It may be the too for the schools of California and a dollar for the schools of Massachusetts very different pieces o money The difference may be illustrated by the difference prices gasoline in the various tablished by the Standard Oil company.
 The expenditure of $44 per capita in Massachu- ought account for the good schools of that state while in other states where the expenditure of money is not so carefully guarded there is little ton between the of the appropriation for the schools and the excellence of the schools.

A Federal Censorship

There are several reasons why the federal govern ment should establish a censorship of the films which presented to the American people through the moving picture houses. The making and presentation of these pictures has become of the great indus tries of the country and which will increase from year to year. It already involves the investment of many millions of dollars and the expenditure of many more millions annually We do not think federal censorship, for that matter, any censorship is needed much prevent the making of bad inn moral pictures, establish a uniformity of idea throughout the country to what should be shown from the The makers of bad films have already learned that it does pay and moving pic ture houses generally understand that the showing of them is harmful to their general business
 We understand that all of the larger film produc- ing concerns favor the federal censorship for the reason we have mentioned. and to rid themselves the annoying. and often corrupt and foolish. local boards of censors. The larger concerns have tried themselves accomplish this through the National Board of Censors of their creation and therefore not official body. However wise may have been the rulings of the National Board they have not al- ways been accepted but local boards have been ere ated with the result that picture that has been passed by the National may be approved in one locality and rejected in another.
 This at times, has worked a hardship on moving picture houses which have received in it's regular course of circuit some picture which the manager of the movie would rather have received, knowing that it would not win the approval of the local board
 But not that the federal government can replace the local boards with a federal board desirable such thing may be. To attempt to do so may be resented successfully interference with not only state rights but attempt to de- prlve cities and communities of their police powers to create such boards for the safe guarding of the morals of the city community according to the local idea of morality

4 Flat Tire.

When an automobile has flat tire
the driver stops at once and fixes It.
One of the street cars making regG-
lar runs on the line in Waxahachie
has been running and IS still running
on a flat tire. In speaking about
this matter, one of our citizens adj
vanced the idea that this car was
sent here from Dallas being too
noisy for that city. 1t is said that
some of the residents on West Main
street refuse to retire before the se.'-
vice stops at night and arise before
the first car goes out IN the morning.
because they cannot sleep for the
dumping noise it makes.
