ed, the streets being laid out on an 
excellent plan and the temple and 
and tabernacles of the Mormons be- 
ing edifices of remarkable beauty. 
The temple is reserved for the high 
Mormons, but the tabernacles are for 
common use and frequently are put 
to sectarian uses as well as religious. 
Each ward of the city has a church 
which is open seven evenings of the 
week, for religious, social or recrea- 
tive purposes. Dances open with 
prayer and close with a benediction. 
Tt is the belief of the Mormon that 
it is a good thing to know where the 
boys and girls are every evening ; con- 
sequently amtisement is provided for 
them at the churches. 
Missionaries are established in all 
foreign countries and at present are 
securing large numbers of converts 
from the Scandinavian countries and 
from Great Britain. An annual in- 
come tax of 10 percent is levied upon 
male church members with the result 
in some cases that members have left 
the church. These are excomunicated 
and are known as “Jack Mormons.” 
Lists of the excomunicated members 
are published in the Mormon daily 
paper. 
The Mormon church, Mr. Merrill 
said, is losing its grip in Utah. Its 
strength has been largely in its sup- 
pression of the education of its mem- 
bers, but with more enlightment among 
them the church has lost strength. 
Mr. Merrill declared that if the “Gen- 
tiles” get control in politics, there is 
a great future for Utah. 
In Los Angeles, Calif., Mr. Mer- 
rill found the heart of the moving 
picture industry. The city of 600,- 
000 population does little manufac- 
turing, but has countless moving pic- 
ture firms, and unusual and_hair- 
raising stunts are common sights at 
any hour of the day.
