RecitatiOns by Photograph.

Since The beginning OF the year a
photograph has been used in the
theological faculty OF the University
Of Vienna. Prof Swoboda, the head
OF the faculty, had noticed that while
reciting the students always made the
same mistakes, 1t then struck him
that by means Of a phonograph their
mistakes might be demonstrated to
them in a striking manner. The re-
suits exceeded all expectations.
