SCHOOL TO USE FILMS >,
IN PREPARATORY COURSE

The Washington Preparatory School
starts an innovation Friday night by
using moving pictures to supplement
class work. An educational film, Ami
mated Geometry" Is to be exhibited to

will be shown in the assembly hall Of
the Central Y: NJ. c. A. building, 1886

Il believe thoroughly In the use Of
the right kind of moving pictures as
an aid to instruction" said Principal
Willard A. Black. There are on the
market today many first Class pictures
which have been scientifically prepared
and which will be of incalculable aid to
students. I do not refer to the popu-
lar hit or miss type Of picture, but
rather to those which have been closely
correlated with the subjects which they
intend to illustrate"

him in any particular the work that

j While Mr.. Sherman declined to talk
about any details Of his work here.
he intimated in reply to pointed
queries that he had made no recon-
that would retard the
school-building program under con-
temptation II approved by what he
termed my superiors." He made
that phase Of the subject rather clear
without any direct comments.
There Is reason to believe that Mr..
Sherman's analysis Of the estimates
will result in a somewhat sub
stantial" cut to carry out the Ad-
ministration's policy to retrench where
consistently possible. However, Mr..
Sherman gave not the slightest mixing
as TO the department. that Will feel
the.ax most keenly. r,.,.

OF Mr.. Sherman gained while he was
chairman Of the District Committee OF
the Senate was taken into considera'
ton by General Dawes in selecting
him to go over the estimates. That

To pine on the shelf;
Since the lovely are empty,
Thou shalt be empty thyself.

With . waiting list Of over 100
before the end Of the first week,
the night school authorities have
already begun to carry out their
retrenchment policy by limiting the

Due to a curtailment Of funds this
year It Is necessary to operate the
night schools on a limited basis and
already many prospective students
have been turned down.
william B. Paterson, superinten-
dent Of night schools, will limit the
enrolment at first to about $500
and later bring II up to about $500
and by the peak months Of December.
January and February bring the
total enrolment for the year UP to
about $500. It is then that the
overflow will have q chance.

MERGER ACTION
NOTL0OkEDFOR
TTH|S SESSION
D. c. Committee OF Meet Mon
day--Minor Bills Will Be
Considered.

. Although the House District Com
mittee will devote the. entire day
Monday to District legislation. mem
bers of the House District Committee
have little hope OF gaining much
Roadway with District bills on this
day. Several bills may be passed,
but none Of them will be Of vast
importance.
1t is possible, but not probable, that
the District Committee will decide to
bring up the Woods railway bill. pro-
viding a solution to the local street
railway problem, as first on the list
Of District legislation. In this even
other District bills are doomed to lay
over for several months, foE II will
take q day and probably longer to
dispose of this piece Of legislation.
For this reason many members OF
the committee believe II would be best
to let the Woods bill be held over
until the next session and to devote
all Of Monday to the many minor
bills that are awaiting action before
the House.
Among the bills which will be
brought up, In event the Woods bill
is held over. are the pawnbrokers'
bill, Juvenile Court bill. a bill making
Lincoln's birthday a holiday and sew
eral insurance bills.
II the committee decides to spend
the time on these and other small
bills, II Is probable that some head.
way will be gained with District legis-
lation. 1t probably will be Saturday
before any decision will be made by
the committee on its program for
Monday.
