An Investigation by Paul Bern,
well known scenario editor shows
that filming Of well known books has
vastly increased their circulation,
The public librarians find that the
screen has done wonders in awaken
ing interest in printed stories, So the
public librarians are pfaising the
screen as an aid in spreading knowl-
edge OF books.

The librarian was asked II the
movies did not encourage the easy
method OF getting a story by the eye
on the screen, rather than by the

Though his music is declared to
be strongly reminiscent of Strauss

that he will yet find himself and de-

But the nedeling's wings were not
long in demonstrating their volani
powers unaided. The lad had passed
his lith birthday when his father
finally allowed a few OF his COM
positions to be printed. Printed, but
not published. for the edition was
limited TO l25 copies, and these
were placed in the hands Of friends
and musicians only. One OF these,
a pantomime called "The Snow

Felix Weingartncr, the famous con-
ductor, who was so reused to ad-
mira,ion by the beauty OF the work
that he insisted on its performance

Then You May Write
By I. r. Mccarthy.


When you know the tragedy OF
the setting sun,
And one day obliterated
For the lousiest OF laborers--
A whole day lost
And the Earth whirling on
Then may you write OF sorrow.
When YOU know the thrill OF the
child
AS the robin sings at sun-up--
The fair bright day for games
And romping and shouting and
laughter
Then you may write OF JOY.
When you have seen
The young girl, new-breasted.
Dancing down the sand against
the sea-
While the crumpled old woman
sits by the window
And watches and dreams and re-
members
Then you may write OF life.
