Motion Pictures and Education.

From the Springfield Republican.
New fields for the application of the
motion picture to education are being
opened SO rapidly that it is not surprising
that the possibilities of this new develop
ment should seem almost limitless.. Every
subject. in fact. is being reconsidered with
special reference to its possibilities for
exploitation in this form: literature is not
willing to allow that it is behind science,
and perhaps philosophy will soon emulate
geography There is no danger that the
educational value of the movies will be
neglected: the present peril seems to be
rather in a too indiscrininate application
of a highly valuable instrument. 1t is
time, in short to fit this new invention
into the general scheme of education. and
thinking up uses to which it might be put
is only a first step. When 1t has been
shown that thing can be DONE it still
remains to show that 1t is desirable to do
it, and to determine this several consid-
erations must be kept in sight
1t is not enough, for example. to show
that a given subject can be made much
pleasanter and easier by putting instruc-
ton into cinematographic form. for the
pleasantest and easiest kind OF instruc-
ton is not always the best. Nor is it sui1i-
cient to show that the pupil can see ana
comprehend at a glance in the pictures
what he could only make out with long
and painful effort in any other way. This
is to confuse the acquisition Of particu-
lar idea or bit of knowledge with mental
training. That the motion pictures can
be made to give mental training of val
liable sort may readily be granted. A
skilled teacher would find them very valu-
able indeed not only for training the fac
ulty for observation but in getting the
pupil to reflect upon what he has seen
and to endeavor to interpret the pictures
This danger is that in the fascination OF
the passing show this opportunity for
discipline and mental stimulus may be
passed by.

STAGE GHOSTS.
Facts on How Theatrical Appari-
lions Are Produced.

From London Tit-Blts.
Although the ghost Is no longer the
main feature and attraction of stage
representation, as it was fifty or sixty
years ago. it is still an important char
acter, said the manager of a theater
the other day. In very small theaters,
where stage mechanics are conspicuous
by their absence, ghosts are often as
solid and unrealistic as they were in
the days of John kemble and Mrs. Jor-
dan, and it is not unusual for the
ghost of Hamlet's father to be attired
in a suit of real armor. One such
"apparition'= tripped up while coming
on to the stage, and, falling down with
very metallic thud, rolled slowly to-

DOG CUPS HARD TO WIN
That Is, Those offered Under
Conditions Difficult to Meet.

Sporting Editor New-York Tribune.
Sir: VIII you please say a word in
your kennel columns about the ridiculous
conditions which govern the winning OF
many of the trophies offered.
1t is perfectly apparent TO all fanciers
that some Of the valuable prizes which
are put up. ostensibly 10 be won, are
merely exploited to advertise the donor:
that nothing short Of a miracle could
make them the property Of any one per-
son. These are called challenge tro-
phes." which. correctly interpreted
means that the giver challenges all po-
tential recipients to get them away from
the club which is offering them.
How about a cup which is offered for
novices the conditions stating that three
must compete. when every one knows
that there are not three novices Of that
breed in America? How about a cup 10
be competed for annually and to be won
five times by five different dogs? and
there are many such.
You can't put a man in jail for Offering
q trophy which he knows will never be
won. so they keep right on doing II. L
write this more In sorrow than in anger.
