is shown how the lack of college train
ing dooms muHitudes to lifelong me-
diocrity. In an intense moment Henry
N. Snyder, in the role of college presi
dent, is forced to deny admission to
the ambitious mountain youth because
the over-crowded college is unable to
receive him. AS the college president
watches the disappointed boy set out
on the return trip to the dull, cramped
life he has always known, telegram
is received from the mission board OF
his church, stating that the Southern
Methodist church is calling for 400 for
eign missionaries; rs relief workers;
500 home missionaries and 5000 pas.
tors during the next four years, and
asking how many his college can fur
nish.
It is to meet the tragic need which
during the past year forced southern
Methodist schools to deny admission
to 5000 young people on account OF
crowded conditions, that the chris
tan educational movement was
launched. Leaders. in the denomina-
ton say that although southern Meth
odism has SO splendid record as an
educational church, she ranks only
fifth with her sister denominations
in educational holdings. The educa-
tional assets of the Methodist Episco-
pal Church, South, are represented by
ninety-one institutions of learning,
consisting Of universities, colleges, in
dustrial and training schools-an in
vestment of $SO,OO0,00O. Through
the aaristfan education movement,
southern Methodists propose to more
than doubt this investment, enlarg-
ing, wodernizing and stabilizing these
institutions that they may touch ev-
cry phase of life, moral, intellectual,
physical, recreational, thus enabling
them to develop symmetrical chris
tian character.
The closing thought in 'Out of the
Christian College," is that through
large gifts to christian education
men and women may erect for them
selves immortal monuments and thus
continue to live in the lives and deeds
of those whose training they have
made possible.

Christian Education Movement

The christian educational move
ment of the Methodist Episcopa
church, South, is making large use ot
the screen in its educational program
now occupying the attention of the
church. Stereopticon lectures por
tray the work of southern Methodisn
through her schools and colleges
showing what has been done and what
is necessary to be done if the ninety
one institutions Of learning maintain
ed by the church are to be placed on
a permanent foundation beyond the
handicap of need
In addition to these illustrated lee.
lures which are being given at pub
lie meetings all over southern Meth9.
dist territory, a unique and gripping
moving picture, called "Out of the
Christian College," is being shown
with effect at mass-meetings andg
gatherings where facilities can be
obtained for putting on a motion pic
ture.
"Out of the Christian College" is
a four-reel educational drama. The
scenario and supervision are the work
of Elmer T. Clark, Litt.D., and the
photography and mechanical work
we're done by the International Church
Film company, Of New York city. The
picture rights are the exclusive pro-
perty of the christian educational
movement of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, South.
Those who have seen ''Out of the
Christian College," pronounce it most
interesting. 1t shows in a vivid way
that Methodism is the child of chris
tian education, being born in Oxford
university and having built a school
before it ever had a church. The
first general conference ever held in
America projected Cokesbury college.
"Out of the Christian College" por-
trays the environment of we'll
equipped christian college, and the
gradual unfolding of a new world TO
the young girl student, who through
hard study and wholesome recreation
is developed into well-rounded chris
tian wom4nhood. Equally interesting,
but less cheerful, is the reel in which

Weekly American LeeiOn Letter

Weekly American Legion Letter
Ten cents from each member has
been asked by the American Legion to
pay expenses of decoration of graves
of our hero dead in France on May 80.
The adjutant Of the Louisiana de-
partment is still receiving these con-
tributions, though most Of the money
was received before May 5, and las
been RENTED to natl 1nal hetGQuar-
tiers to be sent to 1Ae Legi ms COM
mittees in France. A not inconsider-
able amount already has been contri-
buted by Louisiana veterans.
Parents of dead veterans have been
asked in pleas addressed to the Amer
lean Legion by Thomas Nelson Page
and Owen Wister, writer's, to let them
remain in dignity where they fell ra-
Their than tear them ruthlesly from the
soil for reburial. The Legion has
maintained that it is entirely up to
the parent and urges neither one way
nor the other. It is, however, seeing
that its comrades graves are cared
for.
