jENSORSHIP boards always
I . take themselves very ser-
iously," said Frank B.
Woods, the supervising director of
the Famous Players-Lasky studio
ifl Hollywood, "and quite often the
! censors make distinctions that are
just a trifle overdrawn, to put it
mildly.
"I recall an occasion when we
were making for. the Majestic com
pany a series of children's pictures
with little Georgie Stone and Violet
Radcliff. In one of the pictures,
Georgie, then about 5 years old,
was sitting on a log with Violet, who
had reached the dangerous age of
7. They were supposed to Je
engaged in love talk. In the back
ground a calf was seen to approach
and. putting its head between the
children, licked Violet's cheek with
its tongue, Violet, without looking
around, protested in a spoken title:
Don t do that, Dan.
"The scene was always good for a
laugh when the picture was exhibit
ed and certainly no one would
imagine the censors could find any
thing to object to. What was my
astonishment, however, to receieve a
letter from the national board a
short time later, couched in these
startling words:
" 'Cut out the subtitle, "Don't do
that, Dan." It indicates passions un
natural in children so young.'
"Did I cut it out? I did not."
"When the Boys Come Home"
will be the next John Emerson
Anita Loos production, with an all
star cast. Further details of it are
given in the section devoted to the
producers.
""The Shepherd of the Hills." in the
world of motion pictures is caus
ing a sensation. The filmatization
has been directed by Harold .Bell
Wright its author personally. As a
novel and a play the work is known
to millions and with the aid of the
camera, Mr. Wright has- visualized
his great mind pictures as mere
words .ould never do. The Shep
erd of the Hills' will be shown at
the Brandcis theater, twice daily all

A Salvation Army picture as yet

Union of South Africa, have been
unearthed, according to a dispatch
to Renter's Limited . today from

TO FORGET THE
LESSONSOFVAR
Is Great to Have Won Fight,
But Just as Important to
Keep It Won, Says
Isaac Marcosson.
A warning against dangerous opti
mism, against too soon forgetting
the war and its lessons, was sound
ed by Isaac F. Marcosson, leading
American journalist, in his talk be
fore the Omaha Society of Fine
Arts, in the Fontenelle Friday af
ternoon. "It is as great a crime to forget as
it would have been not to partici
pate. It's great to have won the
war, but it is just as important to
keep it won," ie emphasized.
Dangers latent in the policies of
freedom of the seas and unrestricted
(immigration were pitfalls ahead of
this nation, according to Marcosson.
Keep Huns Down.
"No altruistic fallacy is greater
Or more costly than the illusion of
a freedom of the seas for the power
that outraged every law that govern
ed it. If Germany is to have un
restricted run of the international
highways of trade, we will be giving
her "first aid" to an economic re
covery which wilt again make her a
menace to the world."
Melting Pot becomes Caldron. '
"No obligation we owe civilization
and permanent peace is greater than
a censorship of immigration. We
must erect a bulwark against the
tide of illicit humanity that has beat
en -on our shores for 40 years. The
melting pot has become a stewing
caldron of unrest. It must become
a straining pot. We must curb the
abuse of citizenship and national
hospitality which made the long and
costly riot of sabotage and anarchy
possible."
Vivid word pictures of the trinity
of allied comanders, Marshal Foch,
Sir Douglas Haig and General Per
shing and of the. three personages
who will dominate the peace confer
ence, David Lloyd George, Clem
enceau and President Wilson, were
given by the noted journalist, who
has had intimate contact with them

Immigration Service"
v to Secure Jobs for
Discharged Soldiers
.United States immigration service
officials in Omaha may take a hand
in the movement to see that return
ing aoldiers get back their former
jobs, or at least have a place created
for them.
It is a known fact that large num
bers of aliens, who are in the coun
try in violation of law, are.employed
in large industrial concerns in .Oma-
j,a, .. -: .Vlli
' Immigration officials "declare that
if returning Sarnhves have any trou
ble landing iabs, a raid will be made
on some of the places where aliens
are employed and the men deported.
"Soldiers first, and if any man in
Uncle Sam's uniform has any trouble
getting a job, we'll run these aliens
back to their own country and cre
ate a lew positions, averrea an im
migration service man stationed in
Omaha.
scenario was writ'ten by Charles
Whittaker, and the production will
be directed by Edward Jose. Com
mander Booth and the members of
the Salvation army appear not as
actors, but in their real roles, and
the picture shows the work done by
this organization in both war and
peace. No more is being announced
concerning this picture at present.
"The Mystery Girl" is a screen
version of George Barr McCutch
eon's novel "Green Fancy." Mr.
McCutcheon is best known as the
author of "Graustark" and- "Brew
ter's Millions."' The screen version
of "Green Fancy" was writtten by
Marion Fairfax. The story is mystery-adventure
material of the best,
in which Ethel Clayton will take
the part of a "Luranian" countess,
operating an ambulance on the
French front and at the same time
working to restore the crown jewels
and state papers to her uncle, Prince
Sebastian, exiled by the Germans.
It will be shown at the Rialto,
January 30.
