A letter appears in our correspondence columns from the Motion Picture Company, Canton, O., which we publish in full, both in justice to the company and as a warning to other employers. Our Operators’ Register is to benefit the operator and employer by bringing them into touch with each other. We ask references of past employers, and as regards the man mentioned they were satisfactory, and he was admitted to the list. We try to make the register reliable, and to this end we excluded some 27 whose credentials did not come up to the standard we have set. If the Motion Picture Company wrote to the references furnished by Al. Shields, and on the strength of the references employed him, and if these are false, surely the^e is some legal remedy by which the company may be reimbursed for their loss. We are constantly receiving letters from employers, to whom we send the full list of names, and would urge them, in their own interests, for the future to scrutinize very carefully the bona-fides of those they select. We know the value of the list we publish to both parties and are very loath to discontinue its publication because one case has miscarried. We sincerely trust the man will make good his liabilities and improve in his work, and in the near future report successful results. MAILING OF PAPER. Several complaints have been received from subscribers, saying they do not get their copies of the paper regularly. We know they are mailed every Friday, and in the event .of non-receipt of copy, will our readers first ascertain that their own post-office is not at fault, before writing us? We believe we have one of the best systems of mailing, and cannot understand the cause of failure even in a single instance. Please remit by express money order, check, P. O. order or registered letter. All cash enclosed with letter is at the risk of sender. EUROPEAN AGENTS: INTERNATIONAL NEWS COMPANY Breams Building, Chancery Lane, London, E. C.
