MOVING PICTURES
By Alice Judson peale

Jty Alice JuuSOn Iedle
The movies have been blamed for
a good deal. They arc said to stimu-
late an unwholcsome interest in
crime, brutality, horror and sex. A
recent study OF school children
show that these darker aspects of
human behavior are not the most
impressive ones. A great deal which
seems sinister and distastefully sug-
gestive TO the adult scarcely touches
the child's consciousness.
The vast ma jority of children pre-
ferrcd the comedy and adventure
films, particularly the wild west
stories. These preferences may BIZ
neither noble nor cdifying. but what
the child takes from them probably
does him no harm: very likely It
does him good since it gives him so
much pleasure.
What a joy it must be to an audi
ence of children dominated by a
world of groWnups to see various
important persons whackcd. tripped

the use OF the bark Of ciuchcna to

lished in 1899 by one DE Jcs4i,n.
This writer stated that the town OF
LoNa. Peru, was using the bark as
early as 1900, when an Indian chief
that the bark was of value fcg the
treatment of intermittent fever.
The bark was called ouina-quina,
which meant bark of barlls, which
shows that the Indians attached
special value to the preparation.
According to G. J. s. Thompson,
the first authentic record OF the
use Of cinchona in the treatment of
disease was its application to the
wife Of the fourth count OF chin-
chon in Lima in 1888. After that
time various treatises were written
OIL the subject. the first mention in
England being published in 1868.
In 1852 a book about the bark
was published under the title: "rhc

and Feavers." Tabor, who was an
itinerant doctor trained as an
apothecary had studied Peruvian
bark and had used it in restoring
health to King Charles II. when
the latter was seized with intermit-

they had disappeared. they never
came back. At first. Black Pussy
had been blamed. But then 1t was
noticed that these disappearances
kept right on when Black Pussy
seldom came to the barn.
Then there began to be a story 70
around all through the barn. 1t
was whispered in every Nibbler
rome. 1t was talked about in every
Rat home. There wasn't Rat or u
Mouse who had not heard Of the
terrible shadow in the barn. A num-
Der Of frightened Mice had seen it..
1t made no sound. 1t seemed to just
float. But down from it would reace
great claws and seize an unlucky
Mouse or young Rat. 1t became
spoken Of as the terrible shadow

fewer Mice and fewer Rats and
every day there was greater fear In

is TO train the children to watch out

It was in the early evening Of

Spooky didn't recognize him as a

sull offers or requests, but this is
laughed at by the experts here, who
point out that there is no way to
hold him to the promise, and that it
would not change the situation if
West picked someone else to hand
out the power to insult.
West is also involved in scandal
over the taking of valuable lands
from the Pueblo Indians and hand

After the second motion to force
publication of the vote of conforma-

resumed open sessions. Senator
Deneen, republican, Illinois, who
handled the fight for West, declined
to comment on the action of the
senate, saying "the vote speaks for
itself"
West was nominated last fall after
the resignation of DR.. Hubert Work,
who left the interior department to
become chairman of the republican
national committee. He was for
merly secretary of the committee
and prominent in Illinois republican
politics.
The nomination was referred to
the public lands committee for in
vestigation shortly after congress
convened in December.
The committee voted, 9 to 4, for
favorable report on the nomina-

business to dispose of the case. 1t
was defended by Senators Deneen
