Realism In Honor System"

Much has been said about the
value of the sensational photoplay,
''The Honor System" which will be
seen in this city soon, and in the gen.
eral human sympathy aroused from
this angle one might lost sight of
the other great and distinguishing
qualities of this master drama which
r. A. Walsh directed and which Will
liam Fox is presenting.
Eliminating the great moral story,
the powerful record of human love
and sympathy, and judging it from
the viewpoint of spectacle, one is
forced to the conclusion that it is
one of the finest pieces of realism
the motion picture stage has yet
seen.
True, no great cities tumble. and
now heavens fail, and the bowels of
the earth are not exposed to view,
but this photoplay shows more real,
flat on the earth human existence
than any film story that has yet
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1917-12-13

been made for the amusement Of the
public.
There are scenes depicting the
frontier life of Arizona which are
without parallel on the screen. Mr..
Walsh was born and raised in Ari-
iona and shows it first in his selec-
ton of types. He positively uses no
Bergen, IN. j. cowboys, and, after
all, that's a good start. His men Of
the West breathe, snort and fight
Western fashion. And they love that
way, too.
The most moving scene is when
the cowpunchers and rangers of one
town dash madly on their mustangs
and cayuses to the rescue of their
pals in another border town. 1t has
been raided by Mexican bandits. and
Mr.. Walsh's scene makes Villas Co
lumbus raid look like a game of cro-
quet. The word has been brought to
the boys of Lariat by Joe Stanton,
the hero. In a whilwind of passion,
they ride across the desert. the
American flag at the head, and save
the town.

START INQUIRY IN
BISHOP JONES CASE

New York, Dec. IA special
commission of the House of Bishops
of the Episcopal Church met in this
city today to begin an official in
quiry into certain alleged seditious
utterances of the Rev. Paul Jones,
bishop of the missionary dis
trict of Utah. Bishop Jones has been
instructed to attend the hearing. The
commission consists of the Rt Rev.
Daniel S. futile, bishop of Missouri,
as chairman; Bishop George H. Kim
solving, of Texas, and the Rt. Rev.
Harry S. Longley, sufferagan bishop
of Iowa.
The case of Bishop Jones first at
tanned publicity when he was re-
quested to resign his post, by formal
action taken by the laity of two of
the leading congregations in Salt
Lake City. The charge was that he
was not loyal to his country. as indi-
Gated by his membership in the Peo-
pies Council of America and other
organizations not in sympathy with
the national purpose, and also by his
own criticism of the government.
The accused Bishop has been a So
clalist for some years. His educa-
ton for his calling was gained at the
theological seminary in Cambridge.
Mass. Though a native of Pennsyl-
vania, and educated in the East, he
settled down for his life work in
Utah, in 1906. Eight years later he
was elected to the bishopric.

The river is now closed by ice, with
the exception Of a narrow open place
in the channel over toward the east
shore to within a short distance south
of the old railroad bridge. which is a
rather unusual condition OF affairs in
December, Later in the winter the ice
forms much farther up toward the Au-
gusta dam, but as a rule In December
open water extends for some little dis
lance below the Kennebec bridge. The
present month has been unusually cold
ever since it came in and present indi-
cations are that the record at the end
of the month will show that it has
been the coolest December for years.
