G. Bernard Shaw On the Censors.
G. Bernard Shaw, who has written
much in condemnation of censorship
of the stage of England, has some
thing to say about movie censorship.
THE danger of the cinema" says
Shaw, lis not the danger of immoral
ity, but of morality.
People, who, like myself, frequent
the cinemas, testify to their desolating
romantic morality.
There is no comedy, no wit, no
criticism of morals by ridicule or 9TH
erwise, no exposure of the unpleasant
consequences of romantic sentimental
ity and reckless tomfoolery in real
life, nothing that could give dis
agreeable shock to the stupid or shake
the self-complacency of the SNUG.
The leveling down has been thorough
ly accomplished"

AT THE MAJESTIC,

The new Triangle-Fine Arts film,
Sold for Marriage" with Lillian Gish,
to be seen at the Majestic tomorrow,
presents American immigrants in a
rarely sympathetic light; and, if for
no other reason, should carry home a
valuable lesson to all who have the
good fortune TO witness it. There is
entirely too much suspicion and an
tagonism directed toward the helpless
peasant with his queer costume and
heavy carpet-bag, who arrives upon
American shores needing friendly
welcome then more than anything
else; and no better medium than the
screen exists for disseminating that
truth. American freedom is held up
10 oppressed persons abroad as sort
OF panacea for all ills; and it must be
grievous disappointment to those who
see the glory OF promised land be-
hind the famous statue down in New
York harbor to find the happy Amer
