 the subject thoroughly and had no | business trying that stunt in the first place.
 Once before in this column of ours We have referred 10 the persistency l of movie orchestras to force their way into the attentions of the pa i irons who pay their hard earned shekcls for the purpose of viewing, Iundisturbed, a film which has at tracted their interest We arise to repeat.
 Talking aloud in the movies has been satirized by cartoon and from the pulpit; the pest that reads the sub-titles aloud has been flayed from the House of Representatives-al- every species of the movie pest has been wiped out and now We have a new menace, one which promises 10 be worse than all Of the rest put to- get ler-thc all-too- earnest organ ar tist.
 We have in mind one particular film which we witnessed recently. The picture had to do with much shooting and cheering and truck horns blowing and all that sort of thing. We thought the picture was splendid-stop us on the street any time and we'll enthuse for hours over the superior brand of acting we saw. But through it all, swaying and tilting perilously on the bench be- fore the banked keys, Joe Organist tramped his loud way through can tatas and overtures, popular songs and requiems and never once let up on the loud pedal.
 At first we didn't mind it so much. We were sufficiently interested in the picture to ignore the usual bel l0wings which gush out of the ump- teen dollar organ which leads all the rest. Then. as our friend warmed 10 his work, disquiet'ng sounds be- gan to invade the sanctity of our own thoughts. Finally we decided to have headache; then we got nervous and jumpy and towards the end we were tearing handkerchicfs into little bits and swearing slightly.
 The end of the picture boomed its way to a triumphant tinis. The or ganist collapsed over the keys and was borne away while a substitute, Ca rank amateur who contented him. self with playing whimsical little bits in q pleasing Way) took his place. But only for a second. Fortified by nobody knows what, the Tempest re turned, mopping his brow. He gazed at the keyboard with a mighty re- solve. His taloned hands poised above the shrinking worries and then, with toss of his forelock he plung- ed into some stirring thing which, although we don't know just what it was, should have been titled ''Thc Third Day at Nicksburg' or The Troops from Fort Dodge.'
 We stuck it out as long as we could but odds were against us. bugler, joined forces with the organ ist and began 10 let out blats at un- expected times. An unseen man be- hind the wings played Fourth of July with a lot of explosives and a baby a little behind us decided that this was no fun and began to wall.
 We made the street with the help of a solicitous usher. We tottered into a drug store and took a stiff hooker of strawberry soda and after q while our hands stopped thelr shaking. We have yet to look into inc mirror to see if our hair turned white during the awful combat with the keys but we have our own opln- ion that it did.
 If the old hackneyed phrases ever meant what they should mean, the following news items would more than likely occupy large part of the daily sheet:
 The above picture is that Of John, Junior, bouncing baby son Of MT. and Mrs. John B. Goofe of lo' Whaflle street.
