Chicago, April 5-(AP)-The one

jump were subjects for airing today
at the annual meeting of the nation

Will, having no power to make
rules, the coaches may make sug-

on the question of stalling and the
center jump while it was regarded as
doubtful If the adherents to the one

to turn the vote Of the association in
their favor.

MEMORY TRAINING

If one wishes to have a good men,
DRY, he must be sure that the Incl
dents are strongly impressed upon
the brain IL clear manner. Mem
DRY is not the recording of facts,
but is the ability to recall or rec
ollect these impressions from the
brain at some future time. Not only
must these impressions be within
our brain, but we must develop a
mental force or strength to search
these records and uncover the one
which we need.
First, we must form a clear cut
record in our brain, and secondly, we
must be able to search it out from
among the numerous other records
at just the time that we are in need
of the information. One can i'm
prove the depth of the impressions
in the brain by cultivating a keen
interest in everything that hap
pens. One should practice observ-
ing clearly and distinctly until it be-
comes an unconscious habit. Con-
centrate upon those things which you
wish to remember, and it is we'll to
associate these with many other
ideas and things so that in search
ing for thought, we may discover
it through several different paths.
The brain associates one idea with
another, and most systems of men,
Dry training make use of this fact
by teaching a visualizing process.
AS you look at thing, compare it
with another. Look at it's points of
difference. Consider it's possibilities
OF difference and juggle it about in
your brain until you realize its de-
tails clearly. If you do this, you
will find that in this particular in
stance, you will have a good memory
and be able to recall the incident
years after it has occurred.
You can use special exercises for
developing your memory, but if you
make an effort to thoroughly under
stand every detail of the thing you
are trying to memorize, you will find
that your memory will improve by
this practice alone. A very good
plan is to try to recall the instances
OF the day before you are retiring.
In this way you will be able to re-
member and describe the persons and
things which you have contacted.
You will also find that these exer-
cises develop mental faculties which
you probably did not know existed in
yourself. You will take a new inter-
est in life as you discover that COM
simple things may release
wonderful thoughts which have been
stored away in forgotten corners Of
your brain.
A few people are born with the
happy faculty of memorizing readily,
but the vast majority of people must
pay special attention to developing
this part of their mental faculties.
A brain should certainly be kept as
neatly and orderly as business file.
The impressions and records stored
IN the cells of the brain should be
so clear and distinct that the mind

At the Movies
ELTINGE THEATRE

Thorough experimentation with
makeup was required of Milton Stills
before he could essay his powerful
role as the underworld king in "The
Hawks Nest" the headline at the
Eltinge for Friday and Saturday.
At the opening Of the story he is
a disfieured World war veteran
whose features are thoroughly
SCARED. In this Characterization he
is a gang leader. But when he re-
quires q disguise to enable him to
move in the same company unrec-
onized, he undergoes plastic surgical
treatment which completely changes
his appearance and facial person
atty.
The use Of the unusual makeup
in the beginning was painful but
Stills suffered in silence for the sake
of art. Great scars were put on his
face with . special glue-like prep
aration, the skin being drawn to-
gether, forming seams in his face,
Tightening and distorting the facial
muscles and skin. When this prep
aration was washed off with q mix
ture containing ether, the contrac-
ton was relieved and Sills' face re-
turned to normal.
Doris Kenyon plays opposite Stills
in "The Hawks Nest" The sup.
porting cast includes Montagu Love,
George Kostonaros, Sojin, Frances
Hamilton and Yola d'Avril.

THE INFLUENCE OF THE MOVIE
(St. Louis Globe-Democrat.)

.OemOCT8C.)
Although general approval could hardly be found in
this country for the plan Of the director Of the social
education section of the Japanese ministry of home af
fairs to arouse public opinion in that country as
the necessity for enacting law prohibiting motion pic
ture theaters from admitting children" there will and
should be encouragement for the Japanese program of
establishing film libraries in important cities step
in the plan to provide school children Of the empire
with motion pictures "that will prove helpful rather
than injurious to them.''
Under the system being developed in Tokyo 260 films
have already been selected for the library. about
fifth Of them being American films and nearly all of the
others Of Japanese production. The Libraries will be
used distributing centers for use Of the schools
nominal rental being charged.
While many motion picture films permitted in Japan
may be improper for young children to vew the wrong
method Of correction is being pursued. Regulation Of
the pictures and not of the audiences is the
cedure. For it is quite beyond understanding how a
film may be proper exhibit for mature audience
when it is improper for the young unless instances
should exist where scientific factors prove of educa-
tional value to adults yet dangerous for children.
Japanese officials concerned with the effect upon
children OF improper motion picture subjects would

lea. Though persons will contend that we have by
no means made complete job Of banishing improper
films it must be admitted that appreciate advance
has been made Not through separating audiences but

pE\ALIZING CHILDREN


The records of the California health department will
never again list the word "Illegitmae after the record
of any chld's birth.
"All births are legitimate says ruling from the
board, land all children egitimatey BORN
This follows similar remark by Superior Judge
Leon Yankwch Of Los Angeles, who was hearing SUIT
in which one of the figures child born to unnar-
rcd parents References by the contending lawyers
to the egtiacy Of the child rked the Judge, and at
last he burst OUT
"There are no iegtimate chidren-only legtmate
parents
And the health board issued the following statement
explaining its rule:
If there is any egmacy involved in the process it
pertains to the parents and not to the children There
may be egtmate parents but is to be deplored hat
many sections of our so-caed civilized society still in
sist on stgmatzng the children This is relic OF the
dark ages and should be abrogated without further de-
lay from minds and actions"
That's all perfectly true and we can hope that other
states follow suit. Penazing child tor the mis-
deeds of its parents is pretty shoddy stuff.
But The matter Of llegtmacy isn't the only one in
which chdre have pay for what their parents have
done have left undone.
Go through any city and make little tour Of in
spection. VISIT first the "beter class" residence dis
tricts. You'll big, roomy houses shaded by elms
and naples with smooth lawns where kids and
tumble and play all day long, enjoying sunlight and
fresh air and good health and safety These kids get
plenty to eat and have nice cool places to sleep; when
they're sick they get the best medical care and they
have lots Of nice shiny toys to play with Their fathers
you see successful and have plenty Of money
Then down to the poorer quarters. You won't have
any trouble finding them, in this great and pros
erous age. There aren't any smooth lawns big
aade trees there. The children play in the hot dirty
:rees, and now and then another Of them gets
life crushed out by truck. In the the kids
swelter and fret at night maybe sleeping out fire
escapes to get little breeze If they get sick they're
apt to be out of luck; maybe the doctor can't be called
until it's too late if at ALL
What have these children done, that they should
much less than the othe-s? Nothing they just hap
pen to have fathers who don't much money as
the other chdrens fathers They're being penalized
dreadful way, for the shortcomings or hard luck of
their parents.
Don't ask US what the solution is. We don't know.
And don't get to thinking about it much YOU
may get notions that are too radical for con.
tented and wealthy nation like ours.
