The editor, be it known. however,
has no SORROWS. He is a gay lot upon
the universe, shifting shiftily from one

nothing. daring everything.
The editor fattens upon anonymity
Yet he is human, for when by chance

spelled-ye gods. the masses have their
revenge!

Art of Hanuinu Pictures.

Pictures should have a strong base
below, a large centerpiece above, and
a higher point above this, thereby
meeting architectural demands. A sofa
against the wall, or a bookcase, or a
large table may form the base, with
an important picture as the center
piece, either square or oblong. AT all
events the base should be wider than
the structure above, and there should
be higher point of apex. The best
of ones pictures should be placed
over the fireplace.

The ideas of divine warning, Of di-

widely separate parts of the world,
that many have thought the only ex-

a common memory of primeval man.

took the human race when it was still

NEW YORK March 9.-Motion
picture producers testified here
Thursday before the legislative COM

that two of the most difficult prob

theft OF films and the elimination of

Benjamin =. Hampton declared
immoral films injure the industry
and cannot survive public condem-
nation. He advocated some form of
state regulation similar to that in
effect in this city under the direction
of the commissioner of licenses. He
asserted that all the better elements
in the business favored suCn regu-

Film thefts amount TO millions of
dollars a year Mr.. Hampton said.
The thieves operate, he explained,
by means of a duplicating machine.
by stealing sections of films and 9TH

short film, crowded out by the 'fea-
ture." soon would return to favor.

JAPAN IS DEAD
George w. Guthrie of Pitts
burgh Dies Suddenly of
ApOpIexy at Toxic.

WASHINGTON, March 9.-George
W. Guthrie, American ambassador
TO Japan since 1913. died suddenly
of apoplexy Thursday at Toxic.
Only a brief cablegram announcing
his death, but giving no details. had
reached the state department Thurs
day night. The affairs of the en-
bassy have been taken over by Post
Wheeler, the first secretary, who
will act as charge until a new am
bassador is named.
Mr.. Guthrie, Pittsburgh lawyer
prominent in national democratic
politics for many years. was among
the first diplomatic representatives
appointed by Pres't Wilson. He sail
ed for Japan in July. 1913, and has
been at his post constantly since
that time, except for a short visit
to the United States in 1915. He has
acted for his government in several
important diplomatic exchanges
with Japan, including the California
anti-alien controversy. News of the
ambassadors death coused a shock
al the state department as there
had been no reports indicating fail
ure of his usual health. He was 6S
years old. His last visit to Wash
ington was during his leave of alb
sence in 1915 and then he appeared
particularly well.
The department cabled a message
of coincidence TO Mrs. Guthrie, who
is understood 10 have been with her
husband at the time of his death.
Provision is made in the department
regulations for bringing home the
bodies of diplomatic officers who die
at their posts and this power will
be exercised in the case Of the late
ambassador unless Mrs Guthrie ar
ranges otherwise or decides TO ae-
cept the expected tender of
japanese wRrship.
Mr.. Wheeler. now in charge of
the embassy. has had a wide diplO-
matte experience. and the depart
ment feels that he is fully capable
Of conducting it's business for an
indefinite period pending the ap-
pointment Of a new ambassador. Be
cause of the importance of the rela-
tons with Japan just now il is eX-
nected that Pres't Wilson will exer-
else great elaboration in filling the
vacancy.
