"It Is quite a popular diversion
for nomo to Jump upon tin- news-
Daners." said Dr. Anderson "because
the press columns portrav so much
of the bad side of life. Or in other
words the newspapers are attacked
because they print the news.
Dr. Anderson then went on to ex.
plain to his nudlonc.e what Is news.
"If the papei prints the fact that a
barber shop will open up and shave

the Krijclish that is used is not a1-
an the best either
'Second. I am opposed to the
-5iimla moving picture show and
not on grounds of religion either.
I am opposed to the Sunday show
on the grounds of business. A city
or town is not worth anything to
business If there are no churches
if ou let the picture shows run on
-!umla the will usurp the pince of
tin: rhtiirh.
"I understand that you have pic-
tures running in Hreckev.ridKo on
Siimla when churches are not hold-
nm r ices. Well we are having
m-jps now and they are running.
The trouble about thot plan Is that
they will soon want to run the
whole da j on Sunday.
"Third. I am opposed to the Inde
cent monies as they are shown to-
d.u. You'll .say they are no mort
indecent than the stage. Hut ju
think Su.tiOil.OOO people wiekly it
in nca go to the picture show-
What a tremendous pourr for loiuI
nr iil tin can be and how imn'i
moie important that tlu be ltii
cli .in ami decent.
'L.i-tl in regard to the mowes
from u t-taudpoint of religion. Mo
ing picture .shows are essentlalb an
ainuseiiii nt and when tin v attempt
to teach religion tin ret out of .
their sphere. I
"Did jou ever see a moving pic I
ture preacher? If I efr ste one
well they grossly liiu-ri pri sent the
present day preacher. And the mov-
ing picture conception of religion'
Why I onco saw a picture that
taught that the Romans crucified
rbrist because He was preaching
apalnst Tinman slavery.
Trletids I plead with you for a
square deal to our children your
home nnd to the church nnd the
American home todnv needs Jesus
Christ in order to keep up the high-
er Ideals. If the shows are allowed
to po mi at the present rate nnd It
continues to bo ns easy to lowet
Ideals America will be like France.
And let me tell you. I believe thnt
in twent yiors fJetmati will be In
