THE FILM INDEX. 5 T EDUCATORS' FILHS. Moving pictures are to be turned to the aid of foreign missionaries. Thou TRADE DIRECTORY. sands of yards of film depicting ac¬ tivities in foreign lands have just been purchased by the Foreign Missionary Society, 222 West Fourth street, Cin¬ cinnati, to be used during the next three months in an educational cam¬ paign to be conducted throughout the United States. Sec. Stephen J. Corey of the society said Tuesday: “So far as we know, ours will be the first mission¬ ary society to use the moving pictures to show what is being done in foreign lands. About a year ago three men traveled through foreign countries to [get pictures of the missionaries actually at work, and the result is some very re! markable pictures. We will begin the middle of November sending groups of missionaries with picture machines to various sections of the United States. The campaign will last until March, 11909. By that time we hope to have (covered the United States. “President Archibald McLean of this society will have charge of one group !of mission workers and I will have an¬ other. The Rev. PI. P. Williams, Philip¬ pine missionary and former chaplain in the United States army during the (Spanish war, and now engaged in rais¬ ing $25,000 to educate native evangelists, will be one of the speakers, as will the Rev. W. E. Hanna, Philippine mis¬ sionary; the Rev. H. P. Shaw, Shanghai, md Dr. James Butchart, Lu Cheo Fu, Shina. Dr. Butchart is at the head of pur hospital at Lu Cheo Fu, where 53,000 patients were treated last year. The Rev. M. D. Adams, Belaspur, India, vill be another speaker. The idea is to et the people see what the missionaries lo, how they preach and teach and how hey live. “One picture shows 10,000 Mohamnedans worshipping at Delhi, India. Vnother picture shows the interior of he temple of the Goddess Kali, the joddess of Murder. The temple is seated at Benares, India, and the picure shows the scenes attendant on the acrifice of animals. The priests’ robes rip with blood, and the horror of he scene is indescribable. Another (icture shows the king of East Africa, diose people, fifty years ago, were avages, going happily into his church, regular weekly scene in that country ow. “Children and their mission educaon will not be neglected, and special ictures and lectures are being arranged or them. The price of this entertain¬ ment is to be nominal. We think that me result will be a wider understanding f what is being done by the missionaies.” 1 When they are all in the hometretch, you see to it that you are eek-and-neck ; keep ripe on trade oings by reading THE FILM IHDEX very week — Two Dollars per year, nd it conies to your door.
