full OF enthusiasm for Pan-American-
ism and urging closer harmony, politi-

in urging the necessity of q great mer-
chant marine that can serve the ma

Americas into one harmonious whole.
Next in Importance, asserted Mr..
McAdoo, the southern statesmen are

With the exception of the drydock

60 to one of the Star-Bulletin Friday
afternoon educational movie shows at
the Liberty theater.
This feature for the children is one
OF the most popular ever presented to
Honolulu youngsters, and the best of
It Is that the sessions work out an
educational idea. The principal films
shown are travel scenes, films which
the management found not popular
with the night show crowds made up
largely of the old folks.
That's something to bear in mind,
old folks.
These films show scenes in other
countries than the United States.
Interspersed with the educational Sc
ries is one with fun. So the children
do not lack for amusement along with
the education.
To test out the observation powers
Of the children the Star-Bulletin Of
fered substantial prizes to the boys
and girls writing the best description
OF what they saw on the screen. The
returns show that when it comes to
real interest, Charlie Chaplin comics
occasionally cause the children to for
get the educational part
The children sent their stories or
"write-ups' as the reporters would
say, of what they saw, to the Star
Bulletin. Prof edgar Wood and two
OF the teachers of the Normal School
went over these stories and made the
axrfa rdc hn t1rf1 En-,
the girls, Helen Allen, IS; Genevieye
Lee, $3.50; Catherine Ing, 81. The
boys were Edward Thomas, SIS; Rich
ard Comes, $3.50; r. Yuan Fat Lee,
81. The Star-BulIetin photographer
was on hand to snap the prize win
ners when they get their prizes and
he also took in q small section of the
boys who make the welkin ring when
a good live picture is on. There were
1900 children in the house last week
Friday.
What is it that attracts the chill
dren?
Ask trained observer and he viii
tell you that it is action. Action
makes the children yell. That's where
the popularity of Charlie Chaplin
comes in. Prof. Wood called atten-
ton to the fact that the yells and en-.
thusiasm were just as marked when
the horses were coming down the
stretch on an Argentine race track, or
Italian cavalrymen were doing hair
raising stunts, as they were when
Charlie Chaplin was turning three dou-
bic somersaults and landing in some
form of new trouble.
Just notice that the next time you
take in movie show Study it from
your own standpoint Sit down and
write what you remember of the next
movie show, and thus learn whether
it is not action thath arouses your
greatest interest and stays longest in
your memory.
The Star-Bulletin series is giving
the children lots of educational action.
II is mighty good stuff" The children
enjoy it, and the Star-Bulletin is al
ways best satisfied when making 9TH

sia lacked sufficient munitions at the
start of the war. So did the4other
allies. But the difference between
Russia and them was this: They
were great industrial countries and
she was not.
Germany Has Monopoly.
Russia could not remedy this in a
day. Nor even in year. Germany
had had for long time practically
monopoly on manufactured articles,
chemicals and so forth in Russia and,
as former Premier Count Kokovtsow
pointed out this had proved a posi-
tive curse to the empire. When the
war came on, severing all relations
with Russia and her former source
of supplies, she felt pinch.
The worst of this situation so far
as Russia was concerned, was that it
could not be quickly remedied. De-
pending on Germany for manufac-
tured articles, she lacked machinery
to make them. Buying nearly all her
chemicals from Teutonic drummers,
she could not Immediately start
manufacturing them herself. And so
on.
Which brings us to this: The
Russian people, through their Or
ganizations, have accomplished near
miracles, and are still accomplishing
them, making up for past defects.
Through their combined wits and re-
sources, clear on down through to
the furtherest peasant of Siberia, they
have bridged what otherwise might
have been disaster.
The story of some of these citizen
organizations, how they came into
being, how they work and the extent
of their utility for the public good,
| will be told in subsequent articles.
