More Ministers Needed.

1t is from the families OF the farm
ers and from the parsonage itself that
new preachers come, according to q
survey now heinG taken by the Ameri-
can education department of the Inter-
church World Movement. The farms
lead. The survey shows that out Of
every thousand pupils who enter the
first grade Of our American schools.
only 38 enter college and only II re-
main to complete the course.
1t is fror, these ii that the churches
recruit the great majority of their
ministers. 1t is also disclosed by the
survey that 1t requires about 5000 new
men every year merely to replace the
gaps IN the ranks Of the ministry at

The other is perhaps of equal inn

horror, violence. brutality and law
breaking is vividly shown, all woven
into an enticing mystery too realistic
to be forgotten by the admirers of
this class of pictures.

If those responsible for bringing up

toward much closer censorship of
this class of movies. dire results may
be expected along with an increase
of crime almost directly traceable to

Movie houses put up the defense
that thew are compelled to cater to the
desire of their patrons. From this
viewpoint. if men and corporations

destruction of our youth, then it is
time for such people to close their

The class of people who flock to
see such pictures are the very ones
most susceptible to mental and moral
dancers and degeneration, ready and
willing to WELD to those influences
that break down the teachings of the

EXPLAINS ORIGIN OF "JAzz"
AZ Last the Secret (7) 10 Given to the
World, and by an English
man, Too.

Writing about the jazz reminds me
that long cablegram was recently
sent from London concerning the orr
gin of the word. According to the
cablegram, the secret Is out, and 1t Is
an Englishman who gives us the valu-
able information.
He tells us that. while Englishmen
should not be held responsible for the
vernacular of their brethren In the
Western continent, the word jazz, he
admits. Is now as much a household
word in England as in America. And
then he goes on to say that the word
came from the South and from the ne
groes. Now in the South, he tells us,
there Is germ known as the hook
worm, which affects all true southern
ers. Some unkind employers call 1t
"loafer-itis." The white employer, ac-
cording to the erudite Englishman, In
the South has many thousands Of ne
groes working for him, and conse-
quently many overseers. So, not being
able to remember the names Of all his
foremen, he generally names each man
