IMAGINATION
T SAT the other day In the studio
i of a'great artist and watched him

i Of great artist and watched him
as he made ready 10 begin a picture.
As he placed the canvas upon the
easel asked him what he was to
paint.
The answer that he made 10 me
was so vivid and so striklngly told
that / almost seemed 10 see upon the
blank canvas the finished work.
But l knew what | saw was only
a dim counterpart of the thing that
he saw. for in his Imagination the
whole picture was as plain In It's
form aud as distinct In its colors. In
its then mental existence, as il was
later to be to thousands of admiring
eyes.
This world would be a sad and
desolnte place without imagination.
ART would falter and science would
dry up and blow away.
Imagination is the real mother of
accomplishment.
If the boy did not vision tho man,
did not imagine himself as he VIII
be when he grows up, all the great
Incentives OF youth would vanish and
all its endeavor disappear.
Nothing is SO exhilarating spur
to endeavor as the Imagination of
what will result from effort.
1t Is the imaginings of what money
will buy for us In necessities, com
forts and Injuries that keep us keen
ly at its earning and conscientiously
at fits saving.
1t Is the imagining of what may
be the result that keeps the chemist
in his laboratory through night hours
or the student at his books when ma
ture would send him to bed.
Imagination helps us to live and 1t
not infrequently causes us to die
A felon in an English prison. who
had been sentenced to death, was
made the subject of an experiment
which showed the power of imagined
suffering.
He was blindfolded and 1t was ex-
planned to him that In the place of
the, usual form of execution he was
to be bled to death.
His arm was barred and across the
large vein on the inside of the elbow
joint was drawn. but without max
ing any wound, the edge Of knife,
Immediately there was caused to flow
down his arm stream of blood-warm
water.
Attendants counted his pulse and
carried on a whispered conversation
about the evidences of falling vital
ity.
Slowly the man grew weaker, his
flesh lost its color, and about the
time that man would have bled t
death from such wound actual,
Cflicted the prisoner died from pure
imagination.
Half our ills are no more substan
tal than was the cut in the prison
er's arm, but we, like him, suffe
through our imaginations all the pain
of reality.

the world"
Imagination ruled Napoleon. II

conqueror of Europe.

Editorial
of the Day
MOVING PICTURE CENSORSHIP
From the Oklah0man)

The extreme reformists who are
striving TO place the American people
in moral strait jacket are now at
tacking the moving picture. Because
they have found comparatively few
pictures which they think are bad
they propose to censor all pictures
through city or state censor boards. or
both.
There already is national board
of censors established by the moving
picture men, themselves, Cor the pur-
pose Of preventing the production
of obscene pictures. If this board
has failed to prevent the making OF
obscene pictures, it is probably be-
cause its idea as TO what is obsence
differs from that of the reformers.
Much difference of opinion exists as
to what constitutes an Objectionable
picture. So also is there q difference
OF opinion as to what makes book
Objectionable, painting unfit for
the public 10 see or statuary too
shocking for exhibition. There are
some extremists like Comstock who
would put stockings. shoes, dresses
and cloaks on all the Venus de Milos
in the world, who would tear all nude
painting from books of art and who
would prohibit the sale of literature
dealing with compromising situations.
They would make all girls wear long
skirts-for to see Il feminine leg is,
to their minds, quite shocking.
IT Is just as reasonable to censor
censor moving pictures. Children and
susceptible grown-ups can have their
morals corrupted just as much by
these other attractions as they can
through the movies.
1t is true that obsence movies should
not be allowed any more than should
obsence books and paintings. But
there already is 4 law against OBJ
scenity. Moving picture men who ex-
hibit obsence pictures can be arrested
and prosecuted just as surely as can
persons who write ami circulate OBJ
scene photographs, paintings and
books
There is danger involved in the local
censorship idea and there is no as
surance that it would result in the
showing Of any cleaner pictures. In
some places where censorship boards
have been established, pictures have
been passed for exhibition which
have met the disapprovM of the ex-
treme reformers. Where local censor
boards are established, there is much
room for graft and favoritism. A
few men decide what the community
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1921-02-15

shall or shall not see. They have II
in their power to cripple one company
and aid another. IL they see fit,
they can prevent the showing of ex-
cellent and unobjectionable pictures.
Because their likes and dislikes are
different from those C many people
or because they have Purtanical ideas,
they may force the exhibition of a
dull, uninteresting type of picture
which the public will not pay to see.
Then there is the probability that
no two censorship boards will have
the same ide;, about the many pictures
that are produced. The censorship
board at Tulsa might let picture be
shown which would be prohibited by
the board at Oklahoma City. The
censorship boards in !, ansas might
prohibit the showing Of pictures which
have been exhibited in Ollahclna.
The moving picture business even
tually would be wrecked by this sort
o. thing. To comply with lne IDEAS OF
all the various censorships boards. It
might become necessary to organize
companies TO produce special films for
certain communities. This would make
the price of moving pictures prohi-
bitive
Tue reasonable solution of the ques
t',n would be to leave the censorship
problem in the hands OF the national
Dcard OF censors, and tlcn hold the
moving picture exhibitors and pro,
duc'rs responsible for tne showing of
obscene films. The oIrts are open
fer the prosecution of surn cases.
Py this plan, the people would not be
placed in a moral strait -jacaet in re-
gard to their forms OF entertainment,
ami at the same time those guilty of
exhibiting obsence films would be
punished if convicted after Il fair
trial
