Games of Chance at the Fair.
Orleans, VT.
September 20, 1921


Mr.. Editor:
May I ask the courtesy of the col
umns of the Monitor for the following
resolution which was adopted without
a dissenting vote by representative
congregations at Orleans Sunday
morning, Setember 18, 1921, and a,
Bloomington Sunday afternoon the
same day.
"We, the congregations of the
Bloomington and Orleans Congrega-
the financial difficulties in the way OF
conduct the annual fair in Orleans
against the selling out of the midway
ground privileges to fakirs who vio-
late the anti-gambling laws of Yer.
mont, particularly sections TOTS, 7O79
7O89 and 1903 of the Public Statutes
and who entice the patrons of the fair
to like violation of the law, as has
been the case in recent years, includ-
ing the present year of 1921, which
was different from the gross gambling
Of last year only in that thin veneer
was spread over the midway gambling
features. If the Ea.- Association car
sell the use Of its property for such
purposes under the mere assertion
that it is within the law, an asser.
ton that is accepted by the unthink-
ing at it's face value, we see no pro.
lection for our own local communi.
ties against the same thing. From
our point of view no law-abiding in
dividual or community can accept
such a standard of public morality
and we therefore pledge our support
and the support of that body of pub
Tic opinion which we represent to any
person in authority whose duty il
is to enforce the laws of the state
and to conduct prosecutions against
those who violate them.
"Further be it resolved that copies
of this resolution be sent to the sec
retary of the Orleans COUNTY Fair
Association. to the states attorney
for Orleans county. and to the editor
of the Orleans County Monitor"
Sincerely yours.
r. A. Hamilton.
Note: Perhaps it would be public
service for the Fair Association and
the rest of us who have an interest
of the public statutes that deal with
gambling.

223 in Epworth Orphanage, Metho-
dist, Columbia, S. c., $50 in Connie
Maxwell, Baptist, Greenwood, S. c.,
and 315 in Thornwell Orphanage,
Presbyterian, Clinton, S. c. These,
bright sweet children must be fed,
clothed, trained and educated. The
support for their maintenance must
be provided entirely by the church
and individual gifts. All of the insti-
tutions, due to the financial depres-
sion of the past few months, have
suffered from lack of funds and
their needs at present are urgent.
A statewide appeal is therefore
being made for a work-day Thanks
giving offering in- their behalf. You
are asked to contribute at least a
days wages, or the proceeds there
from, to the orphanage Of your Pref
erence. This is small request we are
making for these orphan children, and
one day donated to the 'homes C the
fatherless" will work a hardship upon
no one. Each of ne institutions hopes
to share richly from this Work Day
Thanksgiving appeal. The Metho-
dists in South Carolina are asked to
turn their help to Epworth Orphan
age, the Baptists to Connie Maxwell,
the Episcopalians to the Church Home
while the Presbyterians will give their
aid to Thornwell Orphanage.
The appeal is urgent. The orphans
must be remembered. Send in your
contribution, thereby helping to pro
vide for the care of these boys and
girls and bringing happiness and joy
into their lives.

BEHIND THE LINES
In MOVIE LAND

Picture lovers are always interested
in how motion pictures are made, and
for that reason Elmer Harris, author
and supervisor Of the Realart west
coast studio, in concocting The
Speed Girl" Bebe Daniels latest pic
ture plot, has made the heroine a mo-
tion picture star and many scenes
show her at work in the studio. Thus
the audience is given an interesting
peep behind the scenes of picture
production. This picture will be
shown here Thursday.
1t was, of course, necessary to show
many parts of the Realart studio
which ordinarily never come within
the range of the camera. Sets were
"shot" from the rear instead of the
front, camera "angles" were widened
to include parts of the stage, shops
and dressing rooms.
But, particularly, various official
and technical members of the studio
force were given the opportunity to
enact before the camera the parts
they actually play in every day life.
The assistant casting director, cam
eramen, electricians, even some OF the
clericalsforce turned actors. Some
put on makeup, some did not; some
were bored by the proceeding, others
regarded it as a great lark.
However, Director Maurice Camp
bell says that he uncovered no re-
niarkable new talent among the anna
teur aspirants.
Miss Daniels has in her surround
ing east Theodore Won Eltz, Frank
Elliott, Walter HERS, Norris john
son, Truly Shattuck, Barbara Maier,
and VIM. Courtright. Douglas Doty

NEED MUCH MONEY
TO FINISH PLANT
Citadel to Ask for Appropriation of
Two Hundred and Fifty
Thousand Dollars
The State.

The State.
Charleston, Nov. ia statement
Of much interest was that made by
John P Thomas, a member of the
board of visitors, at the 'pep" meet
ing held by Citadel alumni to stir up
interest in Citadel affairs and espec-
tally in the coming football game with
Carolina Thanksgiving day, when he
said that the greater Citadel project
would need s250,00O from the next
legislature for the purpose of fnanc-
ing the building of officers quarters,
buying equipment and otherwise get
ting the plant into shape for use next
fall.
The three large buildings built On
the Hampton Park site are practically
completed and represent an ex2en-
diture, including money for the mess
hall and kitchen building, and some
other work, of about 100000, but
much has yet to be done before the
great institution can be put into use.
Officers residences must be built, a
hospital erected, and a lot of class
room and laboratory equipment, fur
nishings, and so on, secured, TO make
the new college plant available. 1t is
believed that the request for an ap-
preparation of S250,00 will be granted
readily, in view of the great need for
this amount of money. Otherwise, a
most important educational develop
ment will be seric"sly retarded.
