Kansas Woman Censor Culled Two
Bad Scenes From Big Picture
for Whole World,

How Kansas woman edited one of
David Wark Griffith's biggest motion

Kansas is concerned but for the United
States, for Canada and the world at
large was told in Topeka Friday when
a representative of Mr.. Griffith was
here making arrangements for the
showing of Way Down East" at the
Grand the second week of May.
The woman in the case is Mrs. J. NJ
Miller, of Council Grove, chairman of
the Kansas board of review. When
the print to be used in Kansas was
screened in Kansas City for the Kan
sas boards official o. K, Mrs. Miller
made objection to two short bits of
the play. One showed a too passion
ate embrace and the other showed a
woman making an exhibition of her
self with a cigarette.
These cuts were made on the Kan
sas film" said the representative. land
when 1 sent a report on the showing
to Mr.. Griffith, he answered me by
wire that he had taken second look
at those scenes and could not see why
he had not noticed how Objectionable
they really were. He at the same time
informed me that he had given orders
for these two scenes to be eliminated
from every print of Way Down East
now on the road, both in America and

Industrial School Boys Have
Purchased Protector.
Two Shows Per Week Now on
the Permanent Schedule.

Starting this evening, the boys at
the Industrial school are to have their
own movie shows twice a week. That
was the announcement made by Capt.
w. P. MacLean, superintendent of the
school. The announcement followed
the conclusion of a six months saving
campaign on the part of the boys of
the school, to get the necessary money
for the purchase of a movie projection
machine with which the programs are
to be thrown on their own screen from
now on.
These programs are not the first
movie shows that have been given for
the boys of the school, according to
Captain MacLean. Some films have
been loaned the institute by the edu-
cational film department of the state
Hooper of the Orpheum theater. From
now on, however, the movie shows
twice a week are to be a permanent
part of the school life.
The shows on Wednesday nights
will be made up of educational sub
jects and dramatized classical novels,
used in the school work of the boys.
On Saturdays and holidays, the pro-
gram will be furnished by a bureau
in Kansas City and will consist of
comic subjects. travel pictures and
plays of adventure and outdoor life.
