CONSOLIDATION OF SCHOOLS
Millington Schools May be Conso-

A radical departure from the
educational policy Of Maryland
counties will be made in Kent
county, Maryland, if a recommen-
cation of Louis c. Robinson, coun-
ty superintendent with headquar
ters at Chestertown, Md, is car
iied out by the county board Of
education. The local educator has
written letters to members of the
board urging that thirteen schools
be consolidated with other nearby
schools and pupils transferred to
the larger school. The following
Encouragement is recommended:
Milington high schol to be consol-
idated with Galena high school;
Colt one-teacher school with Mas
sey; Sassafras one-teacher school
with aGlena elementary school;
Locust Grove with Galena; Turn
er's Creek with Kennedyvllle; jan

the centers to which pupils would
be transferred, according to the
superintendent, and the salaries Of
one high school teacher and nine
elementary school teachers would
be saved the county taxpayers.
The saving in salaries would ex-
ceed the additional cost of trans
portation in buses by $2,14Q and
other reductions in the cost of
maintenance would be: S1,775 for
repair and upkeep Of buildings and
grounds and 81 300 for repair and
replacement of equipment. The
county has ben losing, Robinson
said, $1,000 from the State each
year in State aid because the Mill
ington school has not had the nee
essary enrolment required of first
group high schools. Among the
other benefits that would result,
stated the educator, would be less
risk of fire hazards in uninsured
one-teacher schools, advantages to
pupils going to better equipped
and larger schols, better working
conditions for teachers and pupils
longer periods of study, fewer
changes in the teaching staff, fewer
school centers and concentration
of effort on the part of school SUI
pervisors. The school board has
taken the recommendation under
advisement.

ably the most satisfactory attempt
so far to connect sound and color
on the screen. The setting required
is hugh piano. From a mechani-
cal standpoint, this scene is a Won
der. And the number has been
faithfully recorded.
1 believe that 1 am safe in telling
you that 1.-The King of jazz is the
most ambitious revue from a stage
and scenic standpoint that the
screen has had.
Whiteman and his band have al
ways had a certain refinement and
personality and they have carried
those two attributes to the sound
screen.
I am confident that no picture
has ever had a better musical
background. From a comedy stand
point this movie revue relies mostly
upon sketches, very short in length
with knockout climax to put over
the comedy punch.
Any picture having John Boles as
the chief singer is safe right from
the start. Boles has many song
numbers and each one has merit
especially his Song of the Dawn,
done with a large male chorus.
Laura La Plante, Jeanette Loft,
the Brox Sisters and Glenn Tryon
are among the big individual names
in the cast.
King of JAZZ" is gigantic enter
tainment from a scenic and nov
city standpoint. The box Office will
tell us whether we have changed our

Short" Forced or not, these two
handed me many a laugh in this
movie. 1t is true the story as
played by Marie and Polly is just
plain hokum dished up in the pc
culiar style that these two fun
makers use In putting over their
fun. All I have to do is just to
look at Marie DRESSER, watch her
face, and off 1 go laughing.
In Caught Short" Marie and
Polly are running rival boarding
houses and these two quarrel over
their respective children, and even
the time Of day.
Polly suddenly gets wealthy play
ing the market, and she immediate
ly starts putting the ritz on poor
cid Marie. Polly develops an accent
which Marie hates and resents.
Then foot after foot of quarrelS.
They always make up, and when
Marie plays the market and gets
suddenly rich Marie begins to show
up Polly's accent.
The end is that the market goes
wrong, they are cut short and both
go back to their boarding house du-
ties.
1t seems to me that they have
put the soft pedal on Marie's souse
scenes. In this picture they are
more indicated than fully developed.
Probably not a great picture, but
it did hand me the laughs. I told
you in the beginning that one of my
weaknesses is my love for Marie
