EDUCATION OF MOVING
PICTURES.'
How. to make use of the moving pic
ture for moral, development Instead of
degradation Is a problem that Is be
ing discussed In every town and ham
let1 where the moving picture Is
shown. "
Not long ago a correspondent writ
ing' to' 'the Bulletin declared his
belief' 'that the moving pictures of
muYaers, robberies, illlcltjove affairs,
and other evil doings dp more barm
than Intoxicating liquors, At the time
the letter was" publlsucj, jnafiy hjcil
!V)Dlo were so overwrought with
i UiJlr discussion of the liquor question
- tl.at the comparison "coutd not be
- treated in an unlmpassloned manner.
There Is no doubt that a great many
intelligent persons believe with the
ro'rreaiwndent referred to. And these
, people are not found only In the clt
of (Honolulu.
Tho protection of youth from the
Influences of evil moving picture
scenes Is fast becoming a national
1 movement. One, magazine', Oood
Housekeeping, has taken 'up tho
cause and some good result Is bound
to 'come of It.
"Mqvlng pictures are more, degrad

William A. McKeever, the well-known
author and philosopher In August

local workers for moral reform
some of the following methods
"1 Choose someone who hns the
clearest Inslghl Into the moral possi
bilities of the movlng-plcture bust
ncss to write a strong article for the
local presB.
"2. Seek to get tho business Into
tho hands of clean, conscientious men
men who will not knowingly tra
duce tho public morals by displaying a
picture that Is suggestive of any kind
of evil.
"3. It may be practicable, In many
Instances, to secure a city ordinance,
authorizing a local censorship of the
movlng-plcture shows.
"4. Send a committee of persons
who understand the psychology of
teaching to attend all the picture
shows In the town for the course." bf a
month, and to take down quietly de
tailed statements of all of an otjec
tlonnble-nnturo-that 4s shown, sold or
done in each of the places, The data
thus gathered will furnish much am
munition for the work of reform.
"By the foregoing means, and oth
ers that will readily be thought of,
there may bo carried on a great ef
fective, movement looking toward , f
purification of the moving plcturo bus
iness. In all of their attempts, how
ever, the workers must not forget to
continue their campaign of education
What the avcrago person noeds to
have shown him Is precisely how the
evil movlng-plcture undermines public
morals; that Is, the worker must bo
specific In his statements and not de
pend simply uion general charges.
"Finally it must be remembered that
,enjoyJng-plcture may be made one
of tho most powerful agencies for the
nioraLand spiritual uplift of any com
