SC MORAL FIBRE :" AT
THE IDAHO THEATRE

An interesting scene in moral
Fibre" the Corinne Griffith produc-
ton which will be shown at the Idaho
theatre, Friday and Saturday, was
filmed from one of the windows of a
residence in Washington square, New
York City. This is on the outskirts
of the famous Greenwich village and
contains the Washington arch, fam
GUS memorial and mecca of many
sightseers.
In the park across the street from
the house in which the scene was
taken an organ grinder, with his mon
key, was busy grinding out popular
music. The children at play sur
rounded this man, doing hand springs
and the like. A few bench sitters
were seen watching the children at
play.
The Vitagraph company landed in
the park early one morning and dis
covered the children dancing about
the organ grinder engaged by Vita
graph especially for the scenes.
These children were enjoying game
of ring acknowledgements. One of
them, a little taller than the rest, was
doing hand springs, and a small boy
on a velocipede was riding around
the ring. The type of individuals
upon the benches in the neighborhood
were suitable for the scene, and with
out any rehearsing Director Webster
Campbell shot the scene that met his
gaze, and it was included in the pic

EDUCATOR SAYS WOMEN
SUPERIOR IN SCHOOL ROOM

San Francisco, Calif-Teaching is
an art rather than a science, and
education is a science rather than
an art, DR.. A. E. Winship, editor Of
the Journal of Education, Boston,
Mass. told the National Council of
Education delegates mere at the Ma
tional Education association conven-
ton. DR.. Winship said:
1.-THE feminine qualities in women
magnify their skill in the art of
teaching. Art in teaching is mea-
sured by the effect upon the child
learning the best things in the best
way when he makes his own choice
of what to learn and how to learn
it. A woman thinks of the child's
tomorrow just as she thinks of the
beautiful fragrant rose when she sees
the bud
Feminine personality is indespens-
able in the elementary grades. A
teacher in the elementary grades
without feminine personality is
professional moron. Feminine per-
sonality without subject method
training is better than subject
method training without feminine
personality. For one who worships
subject methods supremely to try to
teach the art of teaching to women
is a professional tragedy.
For a teacher training institution
to give professional credit for know
ledge of subject methods and refuse
credit for personality in the art of
teaching children in the elementary
grades is a professional crime. To
test and measure children's ability
in subject methods and not test them
for the influence of the teachers per-
sonality is absurd"

NON-TAxABLE SECURITIES.

A large farm mortgage association
of the middle west has printed on it's
stationery the significant statement:
This country cannot exist half
taxed and half tax free" In a cir
cular letter it then points out that
every individual is losing his share
of a national loss of over a million
dollars a day, due to tax exemption
of securities. The circular points out
that shortage of revenue is reported
by many cities and that this will soon
become general as a result of ex-
empting bonds, ETC., from taxation.
If state and municipal bonds are
taxed, it is argued, it will tend to
discourage local extravaganza and it
will increase national and state re-
venue.
A dispatch carried in an Illinois
newspaper, tells of an Illinois city
which finds a shortage of revenue
for the year 1928 over the previous
year, and credits the deficiency to the
conversion of personal property into
non-taxable securities, cutting down
materially the revenue from taxa
ton.
The taxes on farm lands have more
than doubled in the past eight years.
The taxes on the city home have
probably come very near to doubling
in the same period, while millions
upon millions of dollars are being in
vested in non-taxabe securities by the
men who are best able to carry their
share of the tax burden.
1t is a matter to which congress
may well give thoughtful considera-
ton

In time of industrial depression
and unemployment it is the trained
worker who has the best chance to
land a job, says an exchange. That
was illustrated about a year and a
half ago when three to four million
men were out of work in the United
States. At employment bureaus the
report invariably was: We are
finding it possible to place large
numbers Of skilled men, but the I'M
skilled worker is in slight demand"
To a lesser degree the same condi-
ton prevails when business has i'm
proved and labor is called for in
larger quantities. There is illustra-
ton of that fact. also, in a report of
the statistician of the Missouri bureau
of labor. The demand for labor
generally is good today; in some in
dustries the unskilled worker seems
to have an excellent chance Yet, al
though there is no difficulty in plac-
ing the trained man, the call for lab
or in certain lines "seems Inactive
Those are the lines that employ I'M
skilled labor.
