NATIVES ARE TO TAKE PART World’s Greatest Picture Show to be Presented on Mammoth Screen at Columbus, Ohio, June 20-July 7, Many to Go From Northwest By Auto. What it is planned to make the greatest world exhibition ever con. ceived will be held at Columbus, Chio, dune 20-July 7. Known as the Centenary Celebra- tion, and celebrating jointly the com. pletion of the Methodist centenary’s $105,000,000 campaign for the purpose of rebuilding the world and the cen- tennial of American missions, that is, the 100th anniversary of the establish- ment of Methodist missions in Amer- ica, plans are being made to entertain at least 100,000 Methodists a day. Every phase of mission work in! every country in which Methodism is ! at work will be presented. There will be erected a complete Chinese city with its great. walls and gates; a pagoda, temples, shops, schools, hospital, theater, restaurant, homes, peopled by many native Chi- nese. In like manner will be shown villages from India, Korea, Africa and the Philippines, peopled by groups of natives from those cities which have been brought to America by the Meth- odist Centenary. Motion pictures will be shown in a gigantic oval, where 100,000 people can sit at one time, The picture screen will be the largest in the world, being 125 feet high. 2 Thousands of Natives Take Part. The work of Christianity at home and abroad will be shown in every phase, There will be gigantic pageants participated in by thousands of na- tives. General Leonard Wood will com- mand a regiment of 1,000 Centenary cadets, whose duty will be to guard the exhibits. These young men are now being recruited from every state in the union, High school boys are desired, who have had sufficient mili- tary training so they can participate in military drill, Applications should be sent to Centenary cadets, 111 Fifth avenue, New York. Arrangements have been made for parking 40,000 automobiles for it ds believed that great squadrons. of Methodist automobiles will travel to the celebration, One great caravan of 1,000 automobiles has been already fully made up from Illinois while lowa will send another train of 200 cars in one batch, Hundreds of cars are ex: pected to make the trip from the Pa: cific northwest, leaving as soon as the centenary campaign is completed, Beds For 100,000 People. By means of a tent city to care for 60,000 persons and the general accom- modations of Columbus, 100,000 per- sons per night will be cared for during the celebration. The tent city will be equipped with post office, restaurants, sewerage and all the accommodations of a modern city. It will stand on a beautiful tract of 200 acres, One of the most novel features will be a gigantic liquoriess saloon and a prize is offered by the Centenary cele- bration committee at Columbus for the best snappy, short word to describe such an institution. Not only will all there will be other forms of entertain- | ment not to be found in the original | saloon. Motion pictures, directed by D. W. Griffith will be taken of the celebra- tion, Mr. Griffith will also assist in | the pageants. Speakers of world-wide | MANY INLAND TOWNS TO GET LOWER RATES: Senator Poindexter Seeks to End All Unfair Railroad Freight Charges. INTERIOR POINTS VICTIMS. Have Had to Pay for the Costly Fight of the Railroads Against Water Carriers, Washington, D, C.—(Special) —There is a strong probability that Congress, at its coming session, will enact Sena- tor Poindexter’s bill to amend the long and short haul clause in the Interstate Commerce law, so as to abolish discriminations in railway freight rates, This means that hun- SENATOR POINDEXTER, dreds of inland cities and towns, for the first time in their history, will get a fair deal from the transportation companies. The bill passed the Sen- ate at the last session, but was lost in the House owing to the pressure of war matters and the congestion which developed during the closing: weeks. It is Believed, however, that a large Majority of the members favor its adoption, In an interview today, Major Gen- eral William M. Black said: “The Poindexter bill is a long step in the right direction. The abuses connected with railway freight rates first attracted my attention in connec- tion with army work. In fact, there is no question but what the present raflroad tariffs censtitute one of the grossest impositions ever practiced in this country. “The tariffs for freight are still based upon the old principle of charg- ing all that the traffic will bear, a relic of the days of unregulated mo- hopoly. ‘The railroads have practfcal- kinds of refreshments be served but |ly driven water transportation out of business in many parts of the coun- try, by making low cut rates at com- petitive points where water carriers were trying to do business, Then they made up the losses by overcharg- ing in other localities where there was no such competition. The system was a distinctly selfish one devised for the renown will be heard at the celebra- | tion gatherings, | The Methodist centenary celebra- | tion will be by all odds the greatest religious enterprise ever presented, It is expected to defray its own costs, | Immediately after its conclusion the tribes of natives from different lands will be sent to their homes by the Methodist centenary. CENTENARY MOVE HAS BIG FEATURES The gigantic centennial of the estab- | lishment of Methodist missions in | America, under the form of the Metho- | dist centenary, has a number of re-| markable features. In the first case, it is planned to raise, beginning May 18, a fund of $105,000,000 to be used on a gigantic world program of reconstruction, per- haps the most comprehensive program Oever devised. By that date Methodism will have enrolled also 1,000,000 intercessors, | that is, persons pledged to daily | prayer; 1,000,000 tithers, pledged to | devote one-tenth of their income to the work of Christianity; 53,000 persons who will pledge themselves to devote the balance of their lives to the work of the church, wwhether in America or in. the foreign field. Seventy-five thousand Methodist minute men, lay church members who present the:com- prehensive church program at Sunday | services, have been appointed and form the greatest body of organized speakers in America at this time. They have spoken for the Liberty loan and for the United States em- | ployment service, as well as for other governmental activities, Jj! greater prosperity of the railroads and involved the exercise of autocratic powers which do not rightfully belong to common carriers of goods. “Water transportation can be re- vived in many parts of the United States as a result of proper regulation of railway freight charges. There are many classes of freight which might profitably be sent by water to the benefit of the railroads them- elves,” No “Can’t” in Banking. The vice president of a big San Francisco bank remarked recently that they had run their business without | any bank after the fire of 1906, with- out any money before the issue of } clearing-house certificates in 1907 and without any men in the war-time influ- enza epidemic of 1918, offering further proof, if proof be needed, of the re sourcefulness of bankers.—Pacific Banker, Had a Reason. “What makes you so sleepy around the office?” “It’s my sense of duty, boss,” “Huh?” “I lie awake too much at night thinking about my work.” FOR SALE OR TRADE— four year old.colt.
