A campaign has been inaugurated
by the state board of administration
to interest some of the larger indus
tries in Kansas in the production of
motion picture films showing Kansas
in its true, economic status, Lee Har-
rison, secretary of the board, an
nounced today. 1t is planned to send
these films to the schools in Kansas
to be used in the work of visual edu-
cation. Many schools have motion
picture machines, it was pointed out,
and the board members plan to es-
tab1ish a circuit so that the educa-
tfonal films may be sent over the en-
tire state and into other states.

coal mining and few know that larger
steam shovels are at work in Kansas
in mining coal than any used in dig

Dr.. Roy B. Guild in Stirring
Sunday Sermon.
Popular Minister to Washburn
Students Today.

Church and state may be separated

Rotarians at the Baptist church last
night TT is up to the United
Churches to get behind the good WORK
that the cities do and only the
churches united can accomplish it

The church cooperation movement

wheel. The rim of the wheel repre-
sents the churches, the hub heaven,
the spokes the roads to heaven. THE
nearer to heaven the roads come the
closer they converge until at last they
are completely submerged in one"
''It is the laymen who must get be-
hind these big community problems"
declared Guild. preachers may come,
and preachers may go, but the lay
men remain forever"

real work of the church today is the

fered a prayer for John Sargent, the
prominent Rotarian, who died Sunday.
During the prayer all Rotarians in the
audience were asked to stand.

The reasons why every town should

reason is unable 10 send q representa-.

cure the location. II our town has a
board OF trade, this concern will Inn
mediately write for information in
regard to It's particular line Of bus

board Of trade, q new industry or fac
tory may be opened In our commu-

OF men. thus helping TO make a great

not such IN organization. the off,
GERS OF this concern Will give no
thought or consideration whatever to
our city. Is not this an important
reason why the board OF trade should
be the pride Of every city?
In the second place. suppose you
are common business man, recently
arrived In the city, and you desire to
sell the goods OF your line to a large
Arm. OF course these people will re-
quire references. and II there is a
board Of trade in your town. whether
you are a member or not, they will
ask for information regarding you.
II you are recommended by the
board Of trade. the Arm will look no
further for references. but will be
willing to transact business with you.
Clarksburg IL well represented
with such an office. and has a man Of
ability in that office, one who is will
ing to work for the prosperity OF our
city. and is always ready to fire the
gun for better Clarksburg.
Clarksburg merchants should be
proud Of having such a man as Mr..
Dudderar in the Office Of the board
Of trade. as secretary, who in a very
few years has done wonders for a
better Clarksburg. and they should
be willing to do anything in their
power to support this organization
for the benefit Of a better and greater
Clarksburg. and in fact, for their own
benefit.

ferred from a Statement
Made by Gary.

NEW YORK. April 6.-what will
mark an historic event in the steel
trade and advance In the price Of
steel rails is confidently expected in
trade circles to take place shortly.
The base price of rails has stood at
S28 ton for more than fifteen years
fixed at about the time the United
States Steel Corporation was organ
lied In 1901 and 1t has never varied.
Wednesday Judge Gilbert H. Gary.
chairman Of the corporation. issued
a statement saying that the rail
making subsidiaries Of the corpora
ton would maintain present prices
until May but would make no
commitments beyond that date. In
view Of the fact that the prices Of
other steel products have been NOV
ing upward and that many independ-
ent rail makers have favored plac-
ing rails on parity with these prod
ucts the announcement Of judge
Gary was generally taken to indicate
that such an advance was contem-
plated after May 1.
Railroads lately have been break
ing all precedents by placing their
rail orders almost year in advance.

total Of 1,052,200 tons, according to

Along with the tireless efforts Of the
secretary of the local board Of trade,
Mr.. Dudderar. the newspapers have
thrown open their valuable columns
to the boosting OF q better Clarks-
burg.
The local people already know and
understand what the office, or rather
organization. Of board Of trade
means to a city or town. but we wish
to call attention to every cause, every
merchant and every loyal citizen Of
Clarksburg, and give Q full explana-
ton why the board Of trade 10 as nee
essary to q small town or city, as It
Is to the largest metropolis OF the
world, and why every town should
have and support such an office.
In 1902. President Ealier was the
honor guest OF the business men,
league Of Paris. and in his speech, he
declared the merchants to be .'the
glory Of every nation" and urged
them to get together and choose .
few men to lead their business, Sc
lecting those familiar with the out
side world. as well as the interests
within their nation.
Two years after this address of
President Falier's. Paris was-and is
today-leading the world in such an
organization. an organization that
has erected for Paris beautiful build
ings and made 1t strong in financial
resources. The board OF trade Of
Paris has capital Of 2,44S.9S francs
in banks, according to the Official
statement Of the organization, and
its officers are continually working
for a better and greater Paris, and
spreading their products all around
the world.
Second to Paris, comes the organi-
cation Of Germany, another great
business center, and the board Of
trade is more responsible than any
other organization in leading that
nation to It's present success, which
has surprised the whole world.
The rest of the nations have fol-
lowed, and now every city one visits
abroad, has the Office Of the board of
trade standing in the center OF the
city, ready to give any information

sounded warning from what he
termed an invasion of robins. Mr..
Phillips said the woods and fields of
this section were filled with more rob-
ins than he had ever seen at this sea-
son before. and unless mulberry and
other trees were planted to give them
food they would attack fruit trees and
become an expensive nuisance. Robins
are protected by state law and have
rapidly increased while the trees upon
whose fruit they formerly fed have
gradually disappeared as the forests
were cut down.
