tional lines
From that tentative action Of one man. who
sat unobstrusively as a "chiel amAng ye eakin
notes." there developed an organization for
clearing" such films and distributing them to
every school college and university IN America
The clearing house for the truly educational Air
has been established and the machinery by which
it uses its materials is, IN itself. thing that
cites wonderment
Assume that class in biology desires its lee

Certain texts of book or lecture are carefully
studied by corps Of educators that have been
taken from universities ell over the country; the
best detail for demonstration on the screen Is
segregated by the professional mind, already in
itiated to the mechanical possibilities OF the
camera man The photographer then takes the
material outlined by the academic picture mind
and modiies it again. TO the very best develop

in biology are witnessed under a microscopic
method which slows action that truly no who

This has not been the result Of a days effort,
but Of ten years Of studiOus application, INST on
the part Of a single, inquiring mind actuated by
a creative sense; finally by the cooperation OF
many minds, and the performance has brought
into being pedagogic pursuit. Dozens OF
men and women who have fitted themselves for
teaching careers, will find occupation in this new

Carl Horton Pierce, an educator witnessing

such pictures to the classroom. He appar-

How the Idea Was Crystallized

"Then our soldier boys and our young women
who had gone forth with the Red Cross began TO
arrive home Some were halt, some blind. Blind!
Il was the blind alone, who might not profit by
the plan that was slowly forming in my mind!
The moving pictures should supply such a source
of educational opportunity that those who
might read! The plan crystallzed l edu-
Gator, not business man. and l hardly knew
what to do with the thing l had thought, and
sought counsel"
The immediate result of this mans years Of
assiduous note-taking before moving picture
screens was a conference Of educators. DR..

of the Board of Education Of the City of New
York called a series Of conferences to which

the number OF women competitors Of men in the

An effect Of this preponderance Of women has

out most prominently;
The Domestic Type-The domestic type, fortu-

women belonging to the industrial classes but Is
Getting more and more rare IN the so-cRlled mid
die and upper classes. Real love is the only
power capable Of keeping girl in her home; the
sense OF duty seems powerless 70 do so. The alb

Comparison of Handwritings
Gives Clue That May Bring
Arrest To-day.

Nassau county detectives expect to

received by half dozen women promi-
nent in society in New York and on
Long Island.
For several weeks, it became known
yesterday, these women have been
terrorized by letters demanding pay
ment of thousands of dollars upon
pain of death for refusal. Close watch
has been placed over the women to see
that no harm came to them and DIS
trict Attorney Weeks has had all his
available men at work on the cases.
Among the recipients of the threat
ening missives were Mrs. Eloise Dun
can of Hampstead. widow of the late
Alexander Butler Duncan and noted
horsewoman; Mrs. DevereauX Mil.
burn of Westbury. wife of the polo
star. and Mrs c. w. Stoddard of Gar

Mrs. Duncan received two letters. each
ordering her to put $1,000 in a black
bag and hang it on the front gate of the
Methodist Church In Hampstead. Mrs.
Milburn was instructed TO place $4,000
under a tree on the edge of her West
bury property. Another woman was
told she would be killed unless she pui

In each case the order was complied
with. except that worthless paper was

But no one came.
Yesterday Mrs. Duncan turned over ;o
Ferdinand Miller. n Nassau county de-

a former employee at the Meadows. Mrs
Duncan's country estate. and handwrit-

Mrs. Duncan was impelled TO submit
