LONDON KlDDIES USE MUSEUM
Children Not Only See Interesting
Things but Also Learn
Useful Arts.

ondon.-Museums in the great
American cities might well follow the
example set by those in London,
which on every school holiday or va
cation are filled with children from
the homes of the poor in the neighbor-
hood.
But it must be said that at this
season the children are attracted to
the museums quite as much by the
warmth of the galleries as by the
treasures they contain.
1t is in South Kensington museum
that these children enjoy themselves
most, for not only is there a room
where the things that chiefly interest
them are assembled and an official
children's guide to explain them, hut
at every holiday season classes are
formed.
If child is found, like the small boy
of Z who was making a charcoal draw
ing of Robins "St John"-though this
was an exceptionally ambitious
attempt-there are drawing teachers
who will help him.
Other teachers give up their holidays
to teach small fingers TO do art needle
work or to stencil or to paint designs.

HOME FIRST LINE
OF DEFENSE, WEEKS
by the Associated Pressl


Winona Lake, Ind, May 23.-In
connection with the efforts of the
Presbyterian church to promote uni
yersal peace, John W. Weeks, secre-
tary of war, was asked to present to
the Presbyterian general assembly,
NOW in session here, statement Civ
ing his views regarding the function
of the church in the solution of the
nations problems. As a result, the
following message from Secretary
Weeks was read today to the Pres
byterian commissioners assembled
from all parts of the country:
"The nation is gradually putting It's
house into order, but neither the pres
ident by executive decree nor the
congress by the enactment of legisa-
ton can wholly return the country to
a normal state. The solution of our
problems, both social and industrial,
will not be very difficult when the
citizen himself desires to return to a
state of normally; and it is in this
connection that the church, l think,
has duty to perform, the impor-
tance of which cannot be over empha-
sized.
THE first line of defense of the re-
public from the enemy without and
1he enemy within is not the navy nor
ahe army, but the home. This great
nation was founded on the little group
of sturdy Christian homes that con-
stituted the Plymouth colony, and it
rs to the American home that Ameri-
ga owes its greatness and power, not
TO its commerce. its mighty fleets. or
ats VICTORIOUS armies. 1t is the
source of our strength and we cannot
lessen its influence or Importance
without dangerously weakening the
very foundation Of the republic.

WIFE Or FAMOUS AUTHOR
PROVES THAT WOMEN CAN DIRECT
SCREEN PRODUCTIONS AS WELL AS MEN

NEW YORK. Aug. 11.-It used to
be an old saying that the husband and
wife couldn't both be inordinately
bright This seemed to be especially
true where literary talent was in
volved.
But Mrs. George Randolph Chester
has proved that there is nothn ne I
that notion. For the last years Mrs
Lillian E. Chester has collaborated
with her talented husband in all Of
his books and stories. 1t is the only
case on record Of an international an
thor working in complete collabora-
tion with his wife
1t will probably be of interest to
thousands of readers to know that
Mrs. Chester aided her husband in
writing the famous Wallingford stor-
les. 1t now develops that Mrs. Chester
put many twists into the very original
character of "Blackie Daw"
In one of her husbands stories
there was a wealth of detail regarding
the girls dresses, and many readers
probably remarked that no mere
man could write all these details
about a pretty girls clothes And il
now develops taht it was Mrs. Chester
who supplied the feminine touches
When George Randolph Chester de-
cded to picturize his stories several
years ago and learn the technical part
of the silent drama Mrs. Chester de-
cided also TO take up scenario writ
ing and the making Of movies in the
studios. Like her husband she be-
came pupil in screen and studio
technique. and they have several
screen successes to Their credit.
While American women are enter
ing all fields of activity and enrolling
IN positions formerly held sacred toj
mere men. it has been left TO Mrs.
Chester to set up new record for
women in motion pictures.
In collaboration with Mr.. Chester
she recently wrote the story and Sc
mario of the final episode OF the Wal !
ingford r'es
Then she accompanied her husband
a a California studio and with him
directed II screening of
he story. Mrs Chester carefully

NOT RETROACTIVE

Under the old law there was no
restriction of the number of claims
one person might hold There is
a restriction as to how many acres
man may lease-there is no re-
strlctlon as to how many he may pass
to patent, located prior to Feb. 25
1920.
The leasing bill is not retroac-
tive measure, nor is any part of it
retroactive in intent or in fact 1t
simply grants to certain classes of
applicants preferred rights over
other applicants of different class.
1t does not, in fact, or by infer
ence, in any way affect the rights
of claimants under the old laws, ex-
cepts to define as valid claims up
On which no discovery has been made
It does not in any way add to the
authority of the Secretary of the In
terror over claimants under the old
law, nor does it lay an iota of ad-
ditional burden Or requirements over
them.
The law as to the old claims is
precisely what it has been for fifty
years, except that claims without
discovery are declared valid.
Whenever rules, regulations and
1cf,
ment abridge or materially modify
rights conferred by law upon an in.
