One' result was to bring out a slininK dennnrlnliou ot the inovinR-pieliire thriller in the House of'Ttlshops, and the imnni inou.s passage of n resolution by that body condemning the spirit of lawless ness created by thrillers and a sugges tion that Congress nppoint n committee to devise means of curbing the present tendency of the young to go in for crime. Bishop Shajlcr, of N'ebraa, spoke in condemnation of the scenes of vice nnd lawlessness prevented in moving pictures, and attributed to them much of the crimes among the joungor gener ation, nnd which had been very evident In this day. He referred to the mob outrages in Omnha, and said this .in cident had undoubtedly .some influence In inflaming the public mind.

Don't wait un.il the engines wonucnvncincr your rccoras your letters and contracts arc NOW, in advance of the fire TO-DAY is the time to spend an hour in investigating a filing cabinet that will protect your valuable records from thrse 10 tnirty times as well as any other steel cabinet. Most steel cabi nets, you know, are made with plain steel walls, cheaper to make, but more expensive to own. We ourselves make plain-wall cabinets, but for use only where there is no danger from fire. FIRE-WALL STEEL FILING CABINETS have double walls with asbestos inter-lining which makes them three to thirty times as proof against fire and heat as any other steel cabinet. Here's how these better cabinets are built: First there is an outside wall of steel. Then comes a protected air chamber then a layer of asbestos, rAej? another air chamber, and finally a strong inner steel wall. This five-fold, Fire-Wall protection goes all around top, bottom, front, back and sides. "Y and E" Fire-Wall Cabinets are "Built-like-a-Safe", with -the protection that only asbestos can give. , Cost no More - You can buy these better cabinets at the price of the ordinary steel filing cabinets. Since you pay the same price, why not get the proved pro tection of the asbestos construction ? It will pay you to write or 'phone for our ' new booklets "Steel Cabinets that Pro- tecfand'VerticalFilingDown-to-Date." 1013 CHESTNUT ST.
