This means that the same care and
elaborateness shown In tho handling of
the Orimth spectacles on their special tours
of the country will ho carried out when
"Inlolerance" Is transferred to the regular

It Is nearly four eara since Mr Orimth
has been a direct contributor 10 the wrcens
of tho representative motion picture the

greater following for his newer form of
art than hnd been dreamed possible In

Plans nrc being mndo by Mr Griffith's
forces to present this production In n way
that will further .uld to the popularity of
tho motion picture art Limited arrange

picture theatres of the principal cities of
the country This opens up a new and
larger field for Mr arlfllth and Is made
posslblo by the mnny splendid picture thea
tres that have been built since ho began
to make his elaborate productions At the
time Clrimth's first big schemes of spectac
ular offerings wero being formulated tho
opportunity to show his productions was
so limited that he was forced to go to the
old line theatres and make a new place foi
the art of photoplnjs Picture theatres
have breasted up with modern requirements
In the new art cilice then and Grllllth's 10

during their first (season that It Is evident
the fill a long noted gap In the musical
activities of the clt It has. therefore,
been determined to contlnuo them
In planning for tho coming season it was
thought that they should fulfill some func
tion other than mere musical events In
this time of national stress it lias been
felt that tho beneficiary should be national
In Its scope No other organisation sup
plies tills object bettor than tho American
Overseas Committee of the 1'mergency Aid,

As one leads H, O. Wells's nctlonal
treatment of his dlscovsry of God one re
ceives tho Impression that ho has discov
ered tho folly of going oft half-cocked. In
'Tho Koul of a Bishop" he. takea back by
Implication much that ho said In "God, the
Invlslblo King." Ills bishop makes the
discovery of God which Mr, Wells made.
In "Mr. Ilrltling Sees It Through," and ex
plained In "God, tho Invisible King." When
that discovery Is projected against the

H. C. WELLS
life it docs not become such a new or
wondeiful thing after all Indeed, In order
to make his story plausible, Mr Wells
has to crcato a bishop who Is a man of
second or third rato Intellect, with th
temperament il characteristics of a "Billy"
Sunday; that Is, nn emotionalist who
nnds himself shipwrecked when ho tries to
do any thinking on his own account, llo is
suffering from neurasthenia when the
storv opens A physician gives him a
m.vstei Ions drug, opium or hashish, or some
other thing which puts him Into a trance
In which he sees things As In his nervous
state he had begun to doubt the value of
the established forms of religions observ
ance his drug-Induced dreams take the
form of a vision of God as the .supreme
ruler of men llo takes n "-ciond dose of
tho drug on the morning of tho day when
ho Is to confirm a class of oung people,
and while still under Its Innuciico ho
preaches a setinnn In which he states his
belief In a God whom he thinks Is different
from the God of the Established Church,
but who will be recognized In millions of
Americans as tho God they have alwavs
worshiped
The bishop finally resigns his honors and
leaves the Church for ho can no longer
participate In Its sen ices Thero must be
no stated times for worship, no piicsts
and no sacraments, and the Individual soul
must get Into direct communion with God.
Ho thought at first, as Mr. Wells himself
thought, that he had made a great dis
covery, and that ho must proclaim a now
religion. But as he thinks further Into his
problem ho learns that ho Is not nlono;
that his Idea of God Is shared by others In
all parts of tho -world. It resembles that
of the Friends so closely that ho aces the
parallel. Yet ho finally discovers that God
has a place for all types of Intellect and
all forms of service.
One can rpad between th,o lines and find
evidence to Justify the conclusion that the
bishop blundered when he left tho Church
and that ho might havo continued to work
and preach with perfect freedom If ho had
onlv been able lo understand that tho vital
matter Is the spirit behind tho forms. It Is
doubtful If Mr Wells Intonded to give this
Impression, hut the loglo of his argument,
such as It Is, forces tho Impression on the
thoughtful reader. Tho book Is the story
of the catastrophe which follow when a
half-baked Intellect grapples with weighty
spiritual problems If Mr Wells had set
out to satirize his discovery of God an
nounced In tho two preceding books, he
could not havo done It better.

Primer for Reporters
Prof M I.yle Sponcer, of the Hngllsh
department of Lawrence College, Appleton,
Wis, and nlo of the Milwaukee Journal,
has been teaching classes In Journalism for
several years. Out of his experience of the
needs of the students he has prepared a
textbook on news writing It contains so
much elementary Instruction In rhetoric
that one Is forced to the conclusion that the
Wisconsin outh do not get a very good
grounding In that subject before they enter
college Tho whole book Is as elementary
as the part dealing with rhetoric It, there
fore, Is an admirable primer for a oung
reporter who has not had tho benefit of In
struction In college classes In Journalism,
although It Is Intended primarily as a class
book The most valuable part of tho book
to the young nows writer Is that devoted to
different tvpes of stories Trofessor I,jlo
has Incorpoiated In tho text a larfce variety
of news articles from representative news
papers In all parts of the country Two or
three arc taken from the Public Ledger
Tho author explains why they aro properly
written One chapter Is devoted to what
are known as 'feature stories" Hern Is
quoted Fiank Ward O'Mnllcy's famous
account of the death of happy Geno hhee
han printed first In the New York Sun, one
of tho finest examples of this type of a
story that has been produced In America.
Tho hook Is the first of Its kind to be pub

of thoroughness

A German Who Deserted
Of all tho flood of war hooks which has
been poured out during tho last two and
a half years, only a very few will outlive the
war Itself. But one of this few Is likely
to bo "A German Deserter's War Experi
ence ' a second edition of which Is now
published as the lesult of a widespread
demand for tho book Tho author of
coulee, has chosen to icmiln nnonjinous,
fearing that tho public itlon of his name
would lead the Prussian war lords to vent
their wrath on his iclatlvcs In Germnnv.
From tho translator ws learn, however, that
ho Is now In this country, and It was In tho
column, of tho New- Yorker Volksreltting. the
prlnclpil organ of tho German-speaking
socialists In tho I'nlted States, tint his
story first appeared. Before the outbreak
of tho confilct ho was a mining engineer,
and his technical training has enabled him
to present a much clearer portrayal of tho
grim machinery of war than could bo given
by the ordinary soldier The story Is a
