SUNDAY MOVIES.
should They BE Of an Educational
Rather Than Theatrical Characteri

To THE EDiToR OF THE SUN-Sir. ]
do not wish to decry the Sunday movies.
because I know too well the pleasure
these entertainments give to the thou
sands who attend. who, failing the mo-
vles. would find time hanging heavy on
their hands. And furthermore I think
that the movies keep many people away
from associations and environments
which might be more detrimental than
the Sunday moving picture show.
But I am thoroughly convinced. after
a study of the entire situation. that the
exhibitors who have fought censorship 20
hard ought to be willing to concede a
point and consent to q censorship OF their
Sunday shows, at least to the extent that
only pictures Of an informing and edu-
cational character should be exhibited on
Sunday. We get sex problems. birth
control. guttersnipe comedies. mawkish
love stories and crime pictures in every
possible form.
Why can't we have pictures Of travel
in our own and foreign lands. natural
history studies. birds, animals, fishes.
flowers. Industrial studies. showing how
a newspaper Is made. how a pin ID made.
how gold Is mined. how metals are
smelted. real happenings all over the
world?
These pictures would make every mo-
vie theatre on Sunday q centre Of duca-
ton, and people would be interested and
enlightened. There are thousands Of
films Of his character.
