masterful sermon on the Sunday

here by the theater managers. taking
as his topic the managers slogan.

Mr. Westcott's address began with
a compliment to the theater managers
and owners. whom. he said. he liked
very much personally. only they

and that they were not He called
attention TO the county. where New

Sunday movies. whereas seven other
cities do not have them. He called
attention 10 the state, where ten cities
have the Sunday shows and many
times ten cities do not allow them.
He said that the majority OF people
did not always want what was best for
them, demonstrating the point by
calling attention 70 national laws

parts OF the country, where the ma

sired something but are prevented by
federal statutes. which were compiled
TO keep such things down.
Mr.. Westcott's address was deliv-

manner. He did not assail the thea

that an electric machine in the maga-
