HICK TOWNS ARE GONE
DAY OF the hick town has passed foiwvor isolation is no
TI1K more The radio the motor car and othor wonders of this age
of wonders have made the ideas and modes that appear on Ilrondway
one day the fashion and custom in the most remote corner of tho
land on the following day
Provincialism exists to bo sure but It Is not created by the limitations
of apace mid local Ion The teal hicks are us apt to appear iu
the byways VNew York or Chicago as in the remote corners of mountain
regions Provincialism Is a condition of mind rather than nu effect
of geographical location
All this of course should tend to inuke small town life more attractive
than ever botore Time was whon tho brilliant youth folt ho
must leave tho small town in order to como under the stimulus of tin
inteilectual environment No longer is this neessury The bright boy
or girl may make the small elly a place of permanent residence without
any sacrifice of opportunities for Intellectual living
What tho economic and social effect of these changes will be no
man can say There are those who predict that the day or the typlcau
great American city is passing lndutsry will become more decentralized
and tho hulk of the nations population will become small town
people Let us hope that this comes to pass In the wry near future

by the American Presbyterian

Stegall Superintendent
Mr Httgall says We tiro well
equipped here for the showing of
King of Kings In it film and although
we nre in he heart of
i Africa wo have an oxcellent projector
and good current 1 believe
Itlint I can duplicate any successful
showing the rilni has had In
jAiiiorlca whon It comes to crowds
Jnml enthusiastic reception Theie

tit my showings hero In the Valley
of the Kasai I therefore have
them In the open air ln the dark
of thc moon The moon or the
tropics Is ho brilliant as lo sor
lously Interfere with the pictures
My method Is simpfa I simply
stretch a large sheet bctweon two
palm trees nnd the native aud
ienco slls on tho grass I believe
Ithat my system Is unique In that
11 use a thin sheet thus allowing
I the picture to be seen from the
j back as well as from the front In
fact far more people can see It
f from the back thnn Trout From
the back the titles will of course
appear reversed and so cannot he
road Hut none of tho audionco
can read lOngllsh anyway and so
titles are as Intelligible from one
side as the other I bolleve that
our situation llore is unique In
another way That Is in order to
pi event the whole countryside
rrom turning out to see the films
on a given night and thus cause
a stampede we must have our
showings secret to all save a group
chosen for that night Therefore
wo have no regular nights for
showing Herore I developed this
system I have soon such crowds
gather that hundreds were unable
to get dose onougli even to seethe
sheet Tills was < iilto unsatisfactory
bciuise there was much
fighting and some bloodshed

THE TULIA HERALD
What TTzey Are Reading
not ready yet to understand nnd
appreciate The King of Kings
I They had never seen n moving
picture When the first picture wnH
thrown oif the screen It meant
nothing to them It looked to thnn
to be simply a maze of Hhndows
moving about on the sheet They
referred as walking shadown
and that name has clung to them
ever aluce Howovor I was very
fortunate in having some films
mowing animals familiar to the
natvles I had films showing a
baboon an elephant a Hon a dog
nnd a crocodile They quickly recognized
these familiar objiyeta
and with this basis learned
as n
tin a rcnlly short time lo see
the pictures Hut they had to be
educated up to H They will Heed
to see The Kfiig or Kings more
than one time lo begin to grasp
Its significance Ilut my people
here would deem It a privilege to
j be lermitted to see II a dozen
times And I would deem It a
privilege to show it to them a
dozen times The natives fthou
sands of them aie now aide lo
see and understand The King
of Kings They are ready for It
We have preached Jesus to them
for years They do not iindnrstnnd
why It is that although I show
pictures of many oilier men ns
Avell as animals I hnve never
shown pictures of Jesus If He
Is so great that we talk about
Illm nil of the lime why have w >
novor taken Ills picture So runs
tho native thought
Can we picture th < > night The
moon In darkness Suddenly a ray
of light pierces tho blackness of
the jungle A shout goes up from
hundieds or throats Men and women
crowd closer screaming with
laughter They teach many deep
far back Into the jungle A man
they know explains to them that
this is a motion picture lie tolls
them of the world beyond the jun
gJe He tolls them or The King
or Kings Whon we count our
blessings may we think of tin
blackness o he darkness intin
Jungle and of the natives tryhi
to solve the Orrat Truth
Do wo know tlfi truth nlioii
