AMUSEMENTS. AGGIN s a disagreeable thing to endure and sometimes, per- haps, it is just as disagreeable to the person who has to nag; but domestic history will show many wonderful reforms ac- complished in human character through simply nagging at faults big and little. [t is a human trait also to “slack” a little now and then, cspecially if there be no nagger around to call attention to it. President Will H. Hays of the moving picture industry, doubtles many big things on hand to catch up the little things that creep into his bailiwick from time to time. IHe also has had a taste of nagging. Some- body, however, has to notice the little things. Why? that just as we have succeeded in framing our minds to believe that the movies “zvery day, in every way, are getting better and better,” some- bod. at shakes our confidence? Of course, everybody knows that screen stories arc hard to get. zines devoted to the screen admit that every liitle that cost and even m it cost considerably less, patienc glance recently 1 into the limelight ! but silly of such things wh just a reason “ turns loosc a lot of ductions perhaps et which tax comm over the list of names oi photopl Do they suggest anvthing on carth nd isn't it a erime to waste money on the production n all the world is crying against overtaxation?
