LOVER THE HILL" At

William Fox usually identified with
colossal spectacles or with photo
dramas OF the red-blooded sort, has
the distinction OF being the one
American picture producer who has

An Unsuitable reader Of poetry, he
INDUCES himself at times in making
into a beautiful picture some well
known poem Usually he expects to
make little money from these poem
pictures; he means them as gentle
method OF educating the world to
love poetry in a day when poetry Is
not as popular as it was in the Vic
torian period of literature.
Mr.. Fox believes that the dreamer
OF verse is the man or woman who
will eventually be the writer Of the
greatest photoplays. He has pro-
duced the following poems in picture
form: Bonnie Annie Laurie" "Ro-
meo and Juliet" Kathleen Mavonr-

out to be the largest money-maker
OF recent years, running one solid

"Over the HILL" the first pictur-

Opinion of Spiritualists.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
In the teachings of Sir A. Conan
Doyle there has come to Washing
ton a hideous thing. According to
your report of an address made by
him at the National Theater. this
city, he is quoted as saying, among
other things that the great Apostle
Paul was a Spiritualist. MI Doyle
certainly knows sothing about the
writings of Paul in order to be
able to make such a statement. un-
less he gets his proof" from some
spirit medium with a forged COM
munication from the apostle. How
many Spiritualists accept the fif-
teenth chapter of 1st Corinthians
as good Spiritualist doctrine? Not
one that ] have ever heard Of Mr..
Doyle says further that there is no
wick edness, no hell, no everlasting
punishment, that the broad way
leads to heaven and the straight
and narrow way to punishment,
and that the obedience required to
the moral code is Incompatible TO
his conception OF the character OF
God In each of these claims he
gives the lie direct to the New
Testament version of the teachings
of St. Paul. whom he claims was
the first great Spiritualist," as
we'll as TO all the teachings of
Jesus Christ. / more than suspect
that his information on these mat
ters is not gotten from the New
Testament itself. but from some
newer testament received at the
hand of some spirit medium.
l do know, on the authority OF
the Word of God direct to mankind
for a period of nearly 5000 years,
by the testimony of Jesus Christ
Himself in all His Teachings prior
to His crucifixion, and by my own
personal knowledge that all these
appearances from the spirit world
and all those communications from
the spirit land were but masterful
impersonations and forgeries by
Satan and his angels. calculated to
destroy the faith of men in the
Word of God, and his accountable
ity to God for the manner of his
life here on earth among mankind.

The surprising course events have taken cannot
justify any conclusion otherwise. District people

House would defeat the amendment. On the con-

Destiny of Races.

To the Editor. The Washington Herald:
Howard Walkers perpetual dis
cussion" of the problem presented
ty our colored brethren suggests
few ideas for their masticstion and
digestion.
Otologically speaking. the whites
and blacks no doubt had the same
origin. although some people once
believed the blacks had no souls.
1t is a peculiar paradox that the
colored people received both op-
preston and civilization in the
South 1t was in the sunny South
that civilization first touched them
with its magic wand, and while.
like some white folks, they do not
know whittier they are going, they
are on their way.
As yet the black race has not
oriented itself. They copy white
folks, and as they become civilized
and educated feel keenly their os-
tracism from social recognition.
This constitutes a complete waste
of time on their part. time better
spent by concentrated effort in
schools, libraries, studios and mu-
seums. There is a better way
toward social recognition than
physically. by law and demand. The
philosophy of Henri Bergson fur
nishes the solution.
In the epistemology of Bergson
there should be consolation for the
colored people when he speaks of
the stream of mentality forcing its
way into the crevices of and con-
trolling matter. Gilpin, the great
negro actor and the negro author
who won the recent prize of the
French Academy for his wonderful
novel, wherein he made literature

of Africa point the way.
II the black race will produce
a Socrates, Plato or Kant, a Homer.
Dante or Shakespeare, a. Rem

of another 100 years there will be
no color line. Why waste time
seeking mere movie" recognition
when they should be digging in
to become great poets, singers,
writers, actors, painters, sculptors,
scientists or statesmen?
Perhaps a better orientation of
their race would be a good thing,
at least that seems to be the idea
of the negro author in France.
Why yearn after the ways of white
folks so much?
Was IT Euripides who said: who
knows that life be not death and

the white race can stand the stern
test of civilization? Just what Is

The Way to Long Life.

THE time is not far distant when every man
i and woman in the United States will live
years. according to Health Commissioner Cope
land, of New York, who is man of vision with
practical ideas.
In fact DR.. Copeland says, the average person
now alive look with reasonable assurance to
such ripe old age if daily habits are regulated on
an orderly schedule. He spoke at the opening Of
National Physical Culture Week, in New York,
Monday.
How to lengthen human life is, to the average
individual, the most Important subject in the world.
Promises of Immortality in another world sound
unreal and fantastic compared with assurance of
longer existence in present familiar surroundings.
DIR. Copeland may be too optimistic. But his
ideas at least are worth a trial They apply to
people in Washington well as to those in New
York, although the lesser nervous strain here re-
duces the significance of of them.
Here is his recipe for long life:
Spend ten minutes each day in setting-up ex-
ercises
Sleep with windows open and secure what SUM-
shine you
Spend a minimum OF ten hours each week in
the open air. Balance work and play.
Walk at least three miles each day.
Treat your stomach with respect. Do not
Eat meat not oftener than day
Balance your meal with fruits, green salads
and other vegetables.
Drink at least eight glasses of pure water daily.
Completely relax for at least fifteen minutes
each day and conserve your nervous energy.
Cultivate happy thoughts. Think in terms of
health. Arrange all plans for the week basis
such that each days activities will be consistent with
the requirements OF keeping fit.

that addition is made by turning a
