Life's Hurdles
You Can Enjoy the Movies,
By L. E. Bisch

Anything that stimulates the
imagination gives pleasure When
we are able to construct mental
images we enjoy it.
All Imagination is not Of the
same kind. There is visual imag-
ination, auditory imagination, OIL
factory, gustatory-to every sense
there is its imaginary counterpart.
When you see a flower the i'm
preston is registered via the visual
sense. Similarly, the odor from the
flower is experienced by means of
the olfactory sense. And the eyes
and nose, in these examples, are
the end-organs that first receive the
impressions.
Having once seen a flower you
can reproduce its image in your
mind-that is, imagine it. You
can also imagine the odor of rose,
the tune of a waltz, the taste Of
fruit. You can imagine everything
with which at SEINE time you have
had actual experience-in whole or
in part!
With but comparatively few ex-
ceptions human beings are primar-
lily visualizers We see more than
we hear, smell, taste or feel!
Musicians are notable exceptions
to this rule. A musician is more
likely to construct auditory images
than visual!
Moving pictures stimulate the
kind Of imagery that comes easiest!
They do not put a strain upon our
Imagination Moving pictures APP
peal because they are visual!
Ordinary pictures appeal to lis as
we'll. We never grow out Of the
picture-book stage entirely. But
most Of our experience is not with
stationary, but with moving things.
Life pulsates with motions. There
fore when pictures move it makes
them seem more natural. That also
helps to enhance the enjoyment OF
the movies.
When we read a story or hear
it told we have to change it about
and translate it into visual imag'
nation. Just that little bit Of diff
ference weighs down the scales in
favor Of the motion picture.
The spoken drama? Yes, the
same rules apply as with pictures.
In fact, hearing as well as seeing
increases the imagery value-hence
the enjoyment!
We'd probably frequent plays rs
much rs motion pictures If they
we're cheaper.

The business of insurance is most obvious in the

admission of pure air, day and
night?
1t isn't necessary to have expen-
sive equipment to make your home
what it should be. You don't need
fans, air conduits and high-priced
machinery to have your room flood
ed with good air.
As a matter Of fact, there is new
er-ending debate over the compare
tive virtues Of natural" ventilation
and mechanical" ventilation. Many
authorities contend that natures
methods continue to surpass the
scientific devices planned to force
ventilation.
We need not enter into this dis
cussion. A reasonable supply OF
fresh air is within your reach with
out great money investment. Open
the window, just a few inches, at
top and bottom both. Guard against
draft by stretching a piece Of cloth
across the window frame in front
of the opening. This will divert
the freeze, causing it to turn up
or down, as the case may be, and
yet preventing it from blowing in
upon the family.
Your own ingenuity will devise
other schemes for admitting the
fresh outside air. 1t is not my pur-
pose to propose a plan of ventila-
ton, but to impress upon you that
good health and long life are to be
had by observing the simplest rules
Of hygiene. One of the most i'm
portant Of these rules demands that
you have fresh air day and night.

THEIR FIRST JOBS

years.
Then he decided that there was

There has been a great church
unification in Canada.
Seven hundred thousand Method
lists, Presbyterians and Congrega-
tionalists united their congregations
and properties under the name of
the United Church of Canada.
This is not a state church. The
movement is purely private.
But it is a step in the right direc-
ton.
Unity is a sign of this day. 1t
means progress and greater eff
cheney.
The various water power and cleo
trio light systems have unified, the
steel companies to large extent
have unified, and other forms of
business have done the same thing.
There is no reason why religious
workers should not initiate their ex-
ample.
The thing that has usually stood
in the way has been the office hold
err. Various denominations give jobs
to many different kinds of people.
These jobs are their sole support
and they do not want to give them
UP. These people are leaders of
the rank and file and are usually
able to dictate the policy of their
organiza ton,

We are approaching the time Of
year when house ventilation is i'm
portant. After the open air life Of
the summer and fall, it is difficult
for the body to adjust itself to the
indoor conditions of cold weather.
Too little attention is given the
ventilation Of the private home.
Building codes demand that public
buildings shall be ventilated. Health
officials watch factories, stores and
loft buildings, to make sure the air
is what it should be.
Hospitals and institutions are
built and equipped with reference to
the cubic air space and the unfail-
ing supply Of an adequate quantity
Of pure air. The police power
places a paddock on a ward or
building violating the accepted
standards.
If the law-making and admins
tratiye bodies are so insistent upon
the enactment and enforcement Of
such laws, why is it that the indi-
yidual men who unite to do these
worthy things are so negligent
sbout the air conditions of their
own homes?
Did / say "air conditions?" I
meant airless conditions.
How many homes have you en-
tered where the first whiff nearly
knocked you down: 1t is scandalous
how lily ventilated many private
dwellings are.
Give a little study to your own
home. Is there provision for the

countless generations of brilliant

mendous treasure-house is yours.
You are master of it. You ned
only unlock the door and enter. Its
priceless contents are at your dis
posal.
That is but a poor and unsatisfac-

kingdom Of the mind. Its bound.
aries, its wealth and its resources
arc beyond human description. You
reign over this kingdom. You are
absolute despot over its revenues. 1t

to make an inventory Of its re-
sources.
AND ALL THOSE RE
SOURCES ARE YOURS!
Yet, angels and saints preserve
us! Many people feel lonesome
They suffer torrents because they
cannot leave their homes and dance
and play and cayort with their fell
low beings.
Many of these lonesome souls feel
happier in a moving picture thea"

some trashy caricature of life por-
trayal upon a glittering screen, not
because the picture appeals to them
or satisfies any craving of their

Religious Unity
BY DIR. FRANK CRANE

1t would be a good thing il the
various Protestant denominations in
the United States were to initiate
their brothers in Canada.
The tendency of Professionalism is
to divide up into numerous sects.
This has been the result of much
thinking on the subject of theology.
When men turn their attention
to religion, however, and the doing
of good to their fellow men, it has
a tendency to unity. They can all
work together as well in time of
peace as they work together on the
battlefields in time of war.
Looking at the question merely
for the benefit of the human race,
we will say that religious unity is
a thing greatly to be desired. 1t is
more important to unity the effort
to uplift men by modern method
than it is to keep hold Of the tradi-
tons of the past.
Most of the divisions Of the sects
do not rest upon differences that
divide men now, but upon historic
differences that used to divide them.
1t is time we quit fighting the
battles Of our fathers and begin ad-
dressing ourselves to the task that
is before us.
