covered that literature had been pre-
pared to send broadcast over the
country with this picture and the por-
tiers, asking exhibitors to give prizes to
the young people in their communities

Mrs. Chapman felt that this was a
thing that must be stopped by all
means. she told the young man. and
was backed up in her statements by
the authority Of the commissioner
as she represented three million club
women throughout the United States
and had their confidence in her
ability to SEQ that only the best Of
motion pictures were put before the
young people Of the country. so far
Therefore If he persisted in sending
this jazz propaganda and these post

clearly. But she remembers now That
last winter some friends Of Lindsay's
who had been down on their luck
went up into Canadian lumber
!! camp: that they wrote back jocular
letter suggesting that saving wooo
wasn't SO bad. Told him that they
got their board and lodging and $3.50
a month pay, and said they were go
ing to stick it out until they had
$1,000 apiece saved to go into busl- :
ness for themselves, and suggested
that he might like to go in with them.
"One of them wrote some sort OF
rhyme about It's the first thousand

says that she strongly disapproved OF
the whole scheme, but that Lindsay
seemed much attracted by 1t. She
thinks he tucked that letter away
somewhere. And it looks to me
highly probable that. il he hadn't a
job and couldn't fnd one, that would
be where he'd point.
"She doesn't remember the name OF
the place-just knows that it is a
days journey from Montreal and SIX
or eight hours ride through the
woods after that. Ny dope on this
is that he had already started off on
this Canada proposition; that he
doesn't even know that the robbery
has occurred. And it strikes me that
If Mrs. Lindsay could go over his pa
pcrs and find that letter we'd have a
real clue"
Don't you see. daddy. dear?" She
ran over to put her hand on his arm.
Wont you como along: Won't you,
dear?"
Her enthusiasm was irresistible.
Beecher's scheme didn't sound likely
to the older man: but he realized that,
now the idea was tucked into his
daughters mind. nothing could sat
isfy her except to find out.
He agreed slowly.

noticed a very lurid poster advertis-
ing a motion picture soon to be re-

me feel deeply indignant was the
fact that this poster portrayed the
young people of today in very dis
gusting sports and poses. In the
center of the picture a couple was
'jazzinG" in exaggerated dance pose,
in one corner a group was shooting
craps, in another a couple was
"spooning" and there were several
other groups in similar occupations,
including smoking.
