OF the innovation introduced in the

Oskaloosa boy, the Tribune of Satur'
day says: The first concerted effort
on the part of Chicago public
school to discourage the nickel show
habit" and inspire school children
with a desire for better entertain
ment than that at scent theatres was
inaugurated yesterday with the in
stallation of a new motion picture
equipment at the Audubon school,
$500 North Hoyne avenue. For an
hour $50 pupils were entertained
with an instructive motion picture
exhibition, views of foreign coun.
tries, supplemented with songs and
selections by the eighth grade or.
chestra. I'VE are going to educate the
children to appreciate something bet
ter than the films that are shown in
the scent theatres" said Charles A.
Kent, principal. Every Friday we
will show at least two reels of films.
Now that the school owns the ma.
chine, and most of the pictures are
loaned to us, the expense is very lit
he. One evening each month We
will give a show which the children's
parents may attend" Mr.. Kent
operates the machine himself. THE
Canals of Venice" The Illinois Steel
Mills" and Farming With Dyna-
mite" were films shown yesterday.
The Audubon is the only public
school in Chicago which owns mo-
