MUSEUM MOVIES.

The London Geological society has inauEurated
new plan for presenting as fully AZ possible the
appearance and habits of wild animals in their
tive habitats This is the making and keeping on
record for occasional exhibition OF motion pictures
or The beasts Of forest, field and Jungle
Much excellent and successful work has been
the past in improving the presentation Of natural
history specimens IN museums Taxidermy has de-
veoped so greatly that the best exhibits give the IL
fusion OF arrested motion the of living
lures caught and held in one POSITION if by magic
spell. There artists and naturalists who devote
their time to reproducing perfectly the normal
vironment OF birds and animals in the midst Of
which the product Of the taxidernst's skill appears
a. much home as IN real life.
one thing has been lacking in TINS which the
modern IS going supply. That is motion.
Very remarkable still scenes of wild life have been
caught by the camera. The nature photographer
needs only apply the same patience and training
10 the use OF motion picture cameras. to catch the
beaver building his dam. the salmon Ieaping

Such pictures viii be a big help the educational
work OF any museum. bat their use VIII not be con
fined to that field They will be big asset in the
schools. Children love such pictures and follow them
intenJly They understand and remember most OF
what they see deriving great deal more interest
and knowledge from the accurate flm version OF
natural history than from the ordinary text books
