Pictures of the Future.

London, April 10.-Lubin, the Amer
lean moving picture king, is now on
a visit to England. He gave his views
today on the future of the moving
picture industry. He said:
"The thing is capable of infinite
development We are only at the be-
ginning. l am an old man, but | am
looking into the future, and | can see
every school in the world with NOV
ing pictures to teach lessons that can
be a thousand times better taught
by the eye than by the ear. Every
college and university will use the
moving picture in the students
courses.
"My idea of the future of the NOV
ing picture theatre is that before
long we shall have houses devoted to
different lines, just as we have in
the theatrical world today. Some
will show comedy, some melodrama,
some farce, some spectacular, though
we shall always have variety houses
