EDUCATORS DECLARE
 VISUAL INSTRUCTION
 OF LIMITED VAL U E
(Ry Associated Pressl

CHICAGO, H., Mar 31-Motion pictures as supplement to existing
 methods of instruction in the class
 room are becoming more popular,
 but there is no basis at present to be- | lieve that the movie will in any way supplant instructors, textbooks or other traditional methods of teach ing, in the opinion of directors of departments in a number of univer- sities which have been experiment. ing with visual education for sev- eral years.
 A recent survey made in the Uni ted States showed that there were
 more than 20 state bureaus of visual instruction in educational institu-
 tions, 16 of which were located in universities.
 Educators generally recognize the value of visual education, but at present the movie lesson is consid cred more or less of an entertain ment period. according to F. Dean
 McClusky of the University of Illi- nois. Prof. Frank N. Freeman of
 the University of Chicago, in an nouncing the results of more than 20 experiments in visual education
 asserted there was no justification for unusual enthusiasm for the movie as a medium of instruction. He said
 however, that Shemotton picture
 does have a value, but it's use re-
 quires the same careful presenta-
 tion as other subject matter in or
 der to be made effective as teaching | devices.

His inven- tion Jagged for eight years. It took him all that time to get the papers ready for the patent office. Car sons diary, which figured in the evidence at the trial, is a long re- cital of semi-starvation, of ill-cloth- ed wanderings during years of re- verses.
 He offered testimony intended to show that his contrivance found in- stant acceptance in smelters and were widely used, while he received no compensation. He said that it was possible under his process to treat TOO tons of ore in a furnace in A hours, whereas under the old system but 240 tons could be treated.

25 years ago." said William H. Dud- ley, chief of the University of Wis consin bureau While visual edu- cation should never and probably will not entirely supplant other me thods of instruction, it will continue to be used more as supplement to discussion and lecture.
 Criticism made again their use because the movie lesson merely ot- fers diversion and amusement to the children is ungrounded when teach CTS will take the proper attitude"
 At Iowa State an entire division of the college is devoted exclusive ly to this work, due to the schools and organizations having learned the benefits to be derived, said Prof. Charles Roach. Consequently the popularity of the service has sub stantially increased. Visual instruc tion offers more spectacular dis play and thru it the instinctive de- sire to see is capitalized, he decla1 ed. Somehow, humans will spend enormous sums and time to see an object. Working on the theory that seeing is believing,' we have en- larged our service"
 In the survey made it was dis closed that the If university librar- ies contained more than 7,SOO reels of film and that 27 per cent could be classified as dealing with enter tainment subjects, 16 per cent in dustrial, 15 per cent literature and the remainder miscellaneous.

Meanwhile Carson continues

Meanwhile Carson continues to live in the modest water front hotel that has lodged him in recent months Since the news of the de- cision has spread, he has been re- ceiving more mail than he can read. He said hewas getting many let ters from women who complained of loneliness aud enclosed addresses and telephone numbers.
 Usually Carson prefers to talk of laboratories, test tubes and such. Lately, since the high court sided with him, he has been more atten- tive to long-neglected social ameni- ties. The walls of his room are adorned with photographs of movie actresses, but that doesn't mean any thing, he explains.
 None of these flappers are going to get me-" he affirms.
 Carson is 5S. At the age of II he ran away from the family farm in Kansas. He had but two years of schooling.
 In 1886 he discovered the Wonder ful mine, a cropping of surface sill yer ore near Clifton, Ariz. He sold his claim for $1,500. In his pros pecting he absorbed great deal of metellurgy and geology.
 For a time he digressed from mining to join an expedition sent into Mexico by the American Geo. graphical Society. He left the eX- petition in the wilds of the Sierra Madre mountains year later and drifted to Chihuahua, where he work ed at the smelling end of mining.
 Later Carson wandered over Colo rado, Idaho and Oregon, following

WEALTHY INVENTOR
 WARNS ALL WOMEN
 THAT HE WON'T WED

SAN FRANCISCO, Mar. 31.-No fiapper is going to snare George Campbell Carson, elderly self-styled desert rat" who became, theoreti- cally at least, a multi-millionaire as inc result of a decision of the Unit ed States Circuit Court of Appeals here recently upholding his claims to profits for the use of inventions for treating copper. Asked what he intended to do with his millions, when he gets them, he said he eX- pected to do lot of things involv- ing chemistry which laymen wouldn't understand, but one thing sure, he wasn't going to get married.
 The decision in favor of Carson was rendered on appeal from a fed eral district court in the state of Washington. He had sued the Am erican Smelling & Refining Company, which he accused of appropriating illegally a patent of his that i'm proves and speeds up the smelling of copper.
 According to counsel in the case, several other companies are involved in the ruling, which, If not upset by the Supreme Court, may net him as high as $2O,OOO,OOO Officials of the American Smelling & Refining companies, however, say that they are not involved to the extent of more than $250,O0o. They expect 10 appeal.
