DITMARS FILM GIVES
LIFE TO PREHISTORIC
Zoo Curator Presents Real
Live Monsters-PastOr Sus-
tains Evolution Theory.

A new method OF creating on the
the great prehistoric monsters
that roamed over the world during the
age of reptiles has been evolved by
Raymond L. Ditmars. curator OF the
New, York Geological Park. 1t was
shown TO the public for the first time
last night in a illustrated lecture on
evolution by Mr.. Ditmars in the parish
house of All Angels Church. west End
avenue and Eighty-first street.
Mr.. Dltmars traced the entire evolu-
ton OF life from the nebular hypothesis
TO the present era. and in discussing
the reptilian age. which he said COW
cred ten million years and existed about
three million years ago. he made use
of motion pictures of various KINDS or
dinosaurs and other animals that have
been reconstructed by scientists from
the fossil remains found in various
parts of the world.
Mr.. Ditrnars's method Of creating these
animals differs from that employed by
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, inasmuch as
actual living animals were used instead
Of mechanical devices that merely give
the appearance of moving monsters.
The great numbering dinosaur that ap-
peared on the screen moving across
plain and scaling a cliff in one leap
was merely a South American lizard
placed against a miniature background
giving the appearance OF trees and
shrubbery. An alligator painted and
camouflaged with aluminium paint gave
the Illusion of a great ninety foot mon
ster placed in its proper. setting.
DIR. S. De Lancey Townsend, pastor
Of the church, was enthusiastic over
Mr.. Ditmars's lectures. He said the
churches could no more combat the
theory of evolution than they could
deny the progress OF human thought.
and he was glad OF the opportunity to
present the views of Mr.. Ditmars to his

counting.

ing that the matter be submitted to

that Mr.. Schnitzer figured In the lar

transaction in the paper company
stock, and the firm In year and a

his partners so, 2,0O0,0 900 was reduced to

PAPER ROBBERS SEE THEIR FINISH
The discovery that wood pulp is no longer neces-
sary in the manufacture of paper carries ray of
sunshine into every home.
The prices that merchants have been compel
led to pay for wrapping paper have reached a
proportion that has actually affected prices in
some commodities
The paper robbery has not been solely news
paper problem though hundreds of publishers
have been driven into bankruptcy by the uncon-
scionabe gouging of paper manufacturers.
Prices have been tilted under every pretext
under the sun. Not more than a month ago pub
fishers were warned of still further advances
Relief however, is in sight Florida saw grass
is being used in newsprint paper manufacture A
great mill at Leesburg is turning out substantial
quantities of paper up to the highest standard.
The Importance of the discovery lies in the fact
that paper can be made now from annual crop.
it axes fifty years to grow pulp wood.
Uu-to-date newspaper publishers have regard
ed the paper situation with dread. They knew
they were in the grip of the manufacturers and
experience has shown they might expect no mer-
ey. Their only hope was governmental interior
ence with further exploitation and with Attorney
General Daugherty in the saddle they had little
hope of relief from that quarter.
However, the reaper now is beginning to take
the place of the lumber jack and old dame nature
puts an end to further public robbery which to
date government has failed to stop.

AlRPLANES MAY AID ELOPERS
hearts Another Way to Trick
Their Irate Parents.

Will modern lovers elope by air?
It is on record that at least one en-
serprising couple have made such an
attempt. Unfortunately the plan was
nfpped in the bud owing to unforeseen
circumstances. But there is little rea-
son to doubt that before long aerial
Don Juans will soar away with their
fair burdens.
1t is interesting to recall the vari-
GUS means of effecting elopements.
They are as old as time. First they
took place on foot with perhaps the
aid of rowing boat to help cross a
river. Horses, too, were in great de-
mand and many happy maid rode
pfllion snatched away from under the
very eyes Of her irate parents. Later
came the coach to aid Romeo and JUL
ct and what a gallant my love against
the world" air it added to the romance.
Trains and automobiles have also
played their part in 'love's young
dream" but the future stunt" will be
to elope by airplane.
The airplane wooer will have to be
on his guard against the vigilance Of
the law which has already found the
flying machine useful in the execution
of justice. Thus a policeman in Los
Angeles attempted to arrest a JAP
anese aviator for debt. The man
promptly few off while the policeman
gave chase In an automobile. The
pursuit continued until the aviator was
compelled to come down through lack
of gasoline.
A somewhat similar occurrence
took place in Florida. A negro serv-
ant In fashionable hotel stole a very
valuable brooch. He ran away but de-
tectives discovered. by means Of wire
less, that he was en- board a ship off
Bermuda. The vessel was delayed a
few days off the coast while it was
decided to bring him back by hydro
plane the machine being offered by
Harold Mccormick. The owner &C.
companied by a detective, acted as
pilot. In a few minutes they were
alongside the ship, the thief was ar

Credits For Music.

The Georgia Federation of Music
Clubs has undertaken an educational
campaign for the introduction of mu-
sic as study in THE public schools
in systematic way and for the giving
OF credits for this study the same as
for other branches 1t is believed that
an early foundation should be laid
for musical knowledge which every
child will be benefited in possessing.
Music should not be considered as a
frill or an ornament. 1t has its place
in the life OF every human being if not
as a means OF expression, then as a
channel by which the emotions and
sentiments OF others may be commun-
icated to the listener as thru another
language and this language can be
learend by study, especially if music
appreciation be part OF the course
as this will serve to interest and slim
