CLERGYMEN And
CITIZENS PRAISE
DRAMA OF VICE

Run it!
So say the clergymen of Bemidji
regarding the photo-drama, lis Any
Girl Safe?''
This phOt0-drama of vice is to be
Grand theater, and in response to a
special invitation extended by Man.
ager Glen S. Harding of the Grand
and F. A. Wilson, former Bemidji
editor, one of the owners OF the film,
a special showing~of, the picture was
made at $3.50 o'clock this. morning.
Those attending the special per-
formance included Mayor Charles w.
Vandersluis, Chief Of Police Frank
Ripple and clergymen of various de-
nominations, newspaper men and a
few women. Following the perform
ance these expressions were made by
the different minister's:
Rev. l.. P. Warford, First Pres
byterian church.: "Although the
subject handled is admittedly deli
cate, it is handled with exceeding
care and cleverness and the film
maintains strong moral tone
throughout. I was deeply impressed
with the film and it is my belief that
it will exert strong influence for
good on any audience. wish to en-
phasize that the picture is clean and
modest and powerful"
Rev. Father John J. T. Philippe
of St. Philips church said: "The
picture is one that should be seen.
The lesson is made plain and with
1ro OF ~
interest is keen from the beginning,
it seems to me that all who watch
the action of the film must be con-
tinually conscious of the terrible
penalty which must be paid for sin
and satisfaction which comes from
leading a clean life. I would say
without hesitation that much good
must result from showing a film con-
tanning such realistic sermon as this
film does"
Rev. B. D. Hanscom, First Metho-
dist church, said: 1T appeals to me
that Mr.. Wilson should be con-
graduated for putting on a picture
of this kind. I have seen other films
purporting to deal with this subject
but they contained so much of the
coarse and vulgar that the result
was not for the best, while this film
breaches a sermon-with realism,
that is true-but without obnoxious
details. I can enthusiastically say
that the picture impressed me deeply
and believe that it will do the same
thing to others who see it,
Rev. l.. D. Alvord, First Baptist
church: "Your picture is absolutely
true to life. It happens that in my
work once came directly in contact
with the conditions as revealed in
is Any Girl Safe?' and I know that
what is shown in the films exist and
girls are daily trapped, just as the
girls in the picture are trapped and
deceived into the horrors of life
which you paint so vividly."
One of the ladies attending the
special showing remarked: 1T is too
bad that you place the age limit at
16. I wish that my 13-year-old
daughter might see that picture"
Anticipating one of the largest
crowds in the history of that play
house, the management of the Grand
has arranged with "Hak" to photo
graph the crowd in front of the thea
ter tonight during the showing of
''1s Any Girl Safe?'' In order to take
the picture, "Hak' will use his pow
erful electric Photographic light,
placing the camera in front of Bar
ker's and flooding the street and
crowd with a light said to be nearly
sstrong as the suns rays.

Dog Loves Cat

About the funniest combination
in Richmond is the companionship
between a cat and dog whose mas
ter lives in the eastern part of the
city. When the cat was kitten its
mother died, SO the family fed the
little one milk. The dog saw the
care that was bestowed on the lit
tie orphan. 1t formed an attach
ment to the kitten- watching it
carefully, taking it back of the neck
and carrying it into the yard when
the kitten strayed out of the yard.
With age. the attachment between
the cat and dog increased until
now they are inseparable compan-
ions.

Escapes Bullet

The great warrior Oneidas stood
on the highest point of the land in
the Rocky mountains looking far to
the, east at dust cloud. Nearer
and nearer 1t came until at last he
could see that it was not buffaloes.
as he had supposed. but white men.
He ran down the western slope of
the hill and told the Indians in
their cave home the news.
The white men were soon on the
top Of the hill above the Indians.
There were many large boulders on
top of the hill and every white man
got one and rolled 1t down on the
Indians.
All the Indians were killed ex-
cept Oneidas and he was crawling
up the side of the mountain on his
hands and knees until he came in
front of one of the boulders which
the leader of the white men was
sitting on. Oneidas jumped up and
sounded his war whoop for the last
time, and called out, "You have
killed my brothers. Now kill me"
The soldiers were at first SO
astonished that they did not shoot,
ana then they thought 1t was such
brave act that they let him es-
cape down the hill. and he was new.
er seen again.

Something to
Write About

Out at the Glen there is a pitch
fork tree. It Is just west of the
bridge over those little falls by the
pool where the elks drink, and it
looks just exactly as though big
giant had stuck his giant pitchfork
down in the ground when he was
busy working and the handle had
grown into tree trunk, and the
prongs had sprouted and grown into
leafy branches. And I know there
is story about how that pitchfork
tree got there. Can you tell me?

Boy City

And so at the council meeting
Thursday night the boys must be
without their head! Poor Council
men! And all the weighty affairs
of the city, such as children rum
ming across peoples lawns, and the
location of play grounds, settled
all by themselves. No wonder they
want all the boys of the city to
crowd in the gallery and be present;
they need all the encouragement
they can get.
But there is one thing that all
other fellows of Richmond can do,
and that is show your interest in
keeping the city law abiding and
orderly by applying for a job as
Junior Policeman. Think how
grand it would be to wear one of
those shiny little badges and make
everybody do as you say! Apply
right away to Frederick Fromm.
Roland Cutter, or Herschel Nichol-
son, the Police Board, and be sure
your name will be on the list when
they are finally chosen.

to Cincinnati full Of deer skins and
raccoon skins and maple sugar, and
all sorts of things and after about
ten days here the numbering old
wagon would come back again
clear full of salt, which would have
to last the neighborhood for a

Toys for Holiday

The great war. will not prevent
Santa Claus from buying toys for
the little boys and girls this year
Although the big factories have
closed in Germany, Santa Claus has
made arrangements with factories
in the United States and in Japan,
and they will supply him with
enough dolls, horses, arks. tops,
boats and guns so that he will have
enough for all the boys and girls in
this country. Santa Claus was
very much disturbed at the first
Christmas after the war broke out,
for the chances were that he would
not be able to obtain enough toys
for the thousands of boys here and
in the countries where the war is
raging. But now he says he has all
the toys he needs.
