Burns, veteran of the Spanish-Amer ican War, has begun the organiza tion of a military company den. Quite the most attractive appeal yet made in the name of Christmas char ity was that of a certain shop win dow on Whitehall street just beyond Hunter Saturday. Few people pass ed without at least a lingering glance. Hundreds went W'ithin the shop to look more closely, or to buy. The window held daintily dressed dolls and other articles whoso pri mary appeal was to women. The. dolls had been dressed and the other arti cles made by members of the Young Girls’ Club of Inman Park, who were Barrett, j in lhe s h 0 p all day waiting on callers. They made an alluring and effective corps of saleswomen, and the purse of their treasurer was fat with the day’s receipts when the shop was closed lute Saturday afternoon. The club is made up of girls and women who live in the Inman T’ark section and who have done consid erable charity work. The proceeds of yesterday’s bazaar will be devoted to the Empty Stocking Fund and to other charities of Christmas time.

That is the opinion of the Wom en’s National Council after viewing in a theate* in New York a series of films that Chicago had barred as Im proper. The activities of Second Deputy of Police M. L. C. Funkhouser and of Sergeant Jeremiah J. O’Connor In putting in jasil a woman w*ho went bathing in bloomers without a skirt, in arresting and fining an art dealer for displaying tlie picture "September Morn" in his window, in barring va rious moving picture films which did not fit their ideas of morality—all these are merely in answer to what Chicago people demand. Easy to Shock Chicago. But in New York an audience made u-« almost entirely of women sit through a long exhibition the oth^r day at which w*ore shown only pic tures barred from Chicago. "What in the world is the matter with these pictures?" the women de manded when they had seen them. "It must be very easy to shock Chi cago.” Miss Kate Davis, chairman of the committee on motion pictures of the National Council of Women, took the films which Chicago had condemned and had charge of the exhibition in New York. The women in the audi ence applauded many of the pictures which Chicago had rejected as im pure. One picture showed a water fight among a score of little boys, and the women laughed delightedly. Chicago had refused it because the little fel lows wore no bathing suits. Toe Dancer Rejected Another showed the 1 eautiful steps of a toe dancer. "Why in the world did Chicago ob ject to that?” asked a woman. "Chicago doesn’t permit toe danc ing in pictures." explained Miss Davis. "I wonder what Chicago would do if anyone put m. a film showing a tango tea,” murmured the woman. "It never would be seen,” Miss Da vis explained. "Out there they sim ply will not allow the modem dances shown.” "Isn’t that funny!” Another picture was a scene from an Igorrot© village, where a cluster of huts stood in front of a grove of co- coanut trees. In the foreground was a dinner party. The father stirred i pot over a fire and the whole family reached in with flngess and took out bits of food and fete it. "What was the matter with that one?” demanded a woman. "They have on clothes and they’re not danc ing, and it’s most interesting. Why did Chicago bar that one?" Because it is dog they are cooking in that pot,” explained Miss Davis, while the entire audience laughed. One picture showed a grave-rob bing scene, in which the body of a beautiful girl is taken from a coffin and carried away in a taxi. That was barred. Miss Davis explained, because Chicago was afraid it w^uld teach Chicago hoys to become grave rob bers. Laugh at Censorship. . Train hold-ups, safe blowings and all manner of happenings of every day life, of which everyone reads ’n the papers, were shown, but Chicago had barred them all on the ground that they "teach crime." The National Council of Women is working toward a full and sane cen sorship of all films, but it had to laugh at the attitude Chicago has as sumed toward pictures which found only favor before the committee of women.

GREAT FIGHT Tl Powerful European Interests Plan to Squeeze Out Americans From That Country. By C. F. BERTELLI. Special Cable to The American. PARIS, Nov. 29.—Europe is on the eve of effecting a corner In Colom bia's oil supply which will effectively squeeze out the Americans in that country If it goes through. Apart from the highly important concession of state petroleum lands to the Pearson interests which the Colombian Congress is about to be asked to ratify, privately owned oil properties of great value also are going Into the hands of European business men.

It is recognized here that the effort* of General Burgos to come to terms with Belgian interests and the fact that several other important groups of European capitalists ara trying to get oil concessions constitute danger to American interests. real 74-Year-Old Woman Starts Cactus Ranch EIS-IT,” for Co Surely Gets Them EL PASO.
