In these days of triangle, slap-stick and not to mention monotonous banal- ities in motion picture, film like "The Little Minister" shown last night and repeated tonight at the Empress theater, comes like refreshing flower in summer, or the breath of flow-per- fumed air waited up on vagrant breeze. "The Little Minister" is clean, it is wholesome, it is as pure and in vigorating as the crystal waters that leap down from the towering Alaskan hills, bringing with them life and joy. Sir James M. Barrie reached forth, plucked a sprig of heather here and there, delved into the highways and byways of life and selected living, breathing personalities, brought into relief all the human elements that weave a masterpiece, of which there are only too few. Everyone loves each character paraded across the panorama of human emotions, because the delft nuances in process of trans mutation counterbalance and evoke from each scene lit of the tenderest emotions. They awaken anew the past dreams of age and give to youth a substance as real as it Is inspiring and worthy of emulation.
 As long as there are Little Minis ters" to inject the rejuvenating ele- ment the stage and screen will con- tinue to endure.
 When one views "The Little Minis ter" they readily understand whence came the birth of romance and chival- ry and the conditions under which they were nourished and given their motivating perpetuity.
 Wallace Reid, athletic Paramount star, will be seen in another exciting automobile race picture when "Too Much Speed" is shown at the Emprses theater tomorrow night. The picture is exciting from start to finish and there is plenty of enjoyable comedy. Agnes Ayres plays opposite the star and Theodore Roberts, Lucien Little field, Jack Richardson and Guy Oliver are in the cast.

TWO MILLION
 COLLEGE FOR
 CENTRAL N. '.

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Feb. 2.-Central New York, one of the educational cen ters of the East, as it's long list of educational institutions proves, may gain still another university through the establishment of a business and religious college at Binghamton.
 A campaign to raise a $2,O0O,OO( fund for this purpose will be launched this year or early in 1924 at the latest The canvass for the funds will be di rected by the Rev. Dr. John Paul president of Taylor University, at Up land, Indiana.
 Has Many Now
 Central New York already has Syra- cuse University In this city, Cornell University at Hamilton, Hamilton Col lege at Clinton, Wells College at Au- rora, Hobart and William Smith col leges at Hobart, St. Lawrence Univer- sity at Canton, Clarkson College at Potsdam, to say nothing of the vari- ous state college departments affiliat- ed with Syracuse and Cornell.
 Decision to establish the new uni versity at Binghamton results from a joint movement by Taylor University, Ashbury College, of Willmore, Ken lucky, and Central Holiness Univer- sity, of Iowa.
 Big Fund Sought
 Taylor University is now seeking a S1,500,O0O fund, and when it is raised Dr. Paul will resign the presidency to come to New York State for the University campaign. The will be regional one, de- signed to care for New York, Penn sylvania and New England.
 It will be operated under the aus pices of the International Holiness As sociation. The Binghamton site has already been approved by six of the ten members of the board of trustees of that association.
 In outlining the plans for the Blng- hamton University, Dr. Paul discussed his own college (Taylor) as an ex- ample.
 "Taylor University" he said, lis what college men term sentiment and and is intensely Methodist. There is a world in Methodism, and it is well divided. Some units of the church are in one division and some in another.
 "We have come to be known as be- longing to a particular class, because we most positively do not admit the so-called new theology We stay true to the old."

Take traffic accidents. An official report of the Los Angeles Police De, partment shows that 321 persons were killed during 1922 and 6,393 injured in a total of 42,100 accidents This is declared to be a decided in. crease over the record of 1921, which was given as 30,692 accidents with 2S5 fatalities and 6,362 persons in jured. When the 1921 figures were issued they were declared to be astounding
 Of the total killed during 1922 the report shows that 162 were struck by automobile, 51 were in automobile collisions, 2S in automobile and street car smashes, B struck by motor cycles, 2S struck by street cars, IT by wagons and two by airplane crashes.
 Speeders, according to statistics. were responsible for injuries 10 691 persons, and an additional 625 ac- cident cases were attributed to in competent drivers.
 Including all motor vehicle aCci dents, as we'll as railroad and indus trial accidents for 1922, Los Angeles pF 800 in a report made by the Auto mobile Club of Southern California. In this report 412 fatalities for the year were recorded
 Actual property damage to auto mobiles was placed at $S71,245.
 The average economic value of a human life, using the age Of 72 as the maximum limit beyond which the average individual canno. be con- sidered a producer, is $11,57S,, ac- coroding to the Automobile Club re- port, in calculating the value of human life taken in the accident tell.
 Experienced insurance men say there are 125 non-fatal accidents to every fatal accident and that the cost of these non-fatal accidents fig ures three times fatal accidents. With that as working basis, the Automobile Club finds that fatalities during the year represent $4,77O,4 ,45O. The cost of accidents, other than fatal amounts to $14,312,350.
 As for crime, startling increase is seen in a report of conditions for the last six months which has been issued by the District Attorneys of- flee.
 Different crimes, the report shows, total 1895. For the same period last year the total was given as 1,275 cases in which complaints were issued.

at him. They then disappeared on a
fire escape.
The bullets, coming as a climax to
other disturbances, whizzed about the
head of the labor leader of the 1919
steel strike. The audience of which
half were women, leaped to its feet,
shouting and crowding toward a weak
stairway.
Foster quelled the riot with an i'm
FASHIONED speech, declaring: at was
me they were shooting at. They were

finished his talk.
At the start Of the meeting, held
under auspices of the Trades Union

How much ventilation have you
in your churches, your schools. your

your bedroom? Throw open your
windows. Lower the temperature
of your store, your office your home.
Cease to make your body a dollhouse
