Study Effect Results of photoplay appreciation experiments were presented by Mr. William Lewin of Weequahic High School, Newark, N.J. He declared that "pupils unled guidance show 85 per cent. superiority in reporting exâ€" amples of films that have influenced their behavior, the chief influence beâ€" ing in the direction of higher ideals." He added that "if our millons of high school students can be taught standards for judging motion pictures, it is likely that a movement to make boys and girls intelligently critical of current photoplays would succeed in raising the level of taste among moâ€" tion picturegoers. 2.

Motherless Jill Merridew becomes, on the death of her father, ownerâ€"of a conâ€" siderable farm. She decides to take her father‘s place. She counts on Mark Hanson, head man, to assist her. Mark resents some remarks made by a stranâ€" ger, Phillip barbour, who visits the farm and professes to be investigating the history of old county families. On the following day Jifl asked him to attend the cattle market in Denâ€" bridge, a nearby market town. He was surprised at the request, for Denâ€" bridge was the auction which Jill best liked attending. She had numerous friends among the farmers there, and enjoyed the jovial banter to which they always treated her. She pleaded a headache to Mark, but, although he could not bring himâ€" self to think her capable of subterâ€" fuge, he did not feel happy about the occasion. a caller such as Barbour, and partly something which she did not care to analyze. At the back of her mind she was angry with herself and would have been angrier still had she thought that her heart was governing her on such an occasion. It was with many misgivings that, a little later, she bade Mark goodbye as he drove away in the wellâ€"worn general purposes car which probably relished a run on the open road after the rough lanes and fields which were its customary places of activity. But if Jill thought she had appeasea Mark by the gracious use of his Chrisâ€" tian name, she was mistaken. Mark had seen too much on the previous evening for that. His temporary elaâ€" tion subsided as soon as he had left her and his mind had turned again to Phillip Barbour. . His fears were not illâ€"grounded. Jill had found herself unable to risk missing Phillip when he paid his secâ€" ond visit to inspect the coatâ€"ofâ€"arms. Her reason was partly the novelty of The auction at Denbridge was as picturesque as any to be found. One entering it through the great coachâ€" ing archway of the King‘s Arms Hoâ€" tel, a halfâ€"timbered hostelry in the main street. One found oneself in a wide cobbled space, divided by iron rails into a number of square recâ€" tangular pens in each of which were "lots" of various animals awaiting the time when the burly auctioneer, in his grey bowler hat should ask for bids. Mr. Hilshore was a character at the auction and his jokes made many a rustic side ache with laughter. Meanâ€" while farmers and butchers prodded the sides of the animals with their sticks, the butchers knowing almost to a pound the equivalent in beef, pork and mutton of the cows, pigs and sheep. Mark first entered the cosy bar of the hotel where, on his visits to Denâ€" bridge, he was sure of finding a few friends. On this day he was not disâ€" appointed, though it would have been better for his peace of mind had he not come in, for the greeting accorded him was tinctured with halfâ€"expressed laughter. Mark looked puzzled. _ "Rival? What do you mean?" he asked, though a sudden suspicion of the truth had flashed into his mind. "Well, it‘s like this, Mark," said the other. â€" "There‘s been a fine, goodâ€" looking fellow in Denbridge, and he‘s been asking the missus here quite a lot of questions about that young woâ€" man of yours at Stone Town." "They tell me you‘ve got a rival, Master Mark," quipped an old farmer near the firs. "Tell him, Joe," said the old farmer to another. "Really?" exclaimed Mark with feigned nonchalance. "Well, I wish him luck." Mark was acustomed to being chaffâ€" ed about Jill,.and, in truth, rather liked it, for Jill was remarkably popuâ€" lar among the farmers and he took & mild pride of proprietorship in her when she was mentioned in his presâ€" énce, though not on this éccasion. "What sort of questiona?" "Oh, about Miss Merridew and the farm, and who was looking after poor old Jasper‘s affairs in a lawyer kind of way. Better watch your step, young man, for he was an uncommon goodâ€" looker. Stayed here a night orâ€"two, so they tell me." The farmer had told the truth; inâ€" deed a little more than he imagined, for, at that moment, Phillip Barbour was actually on his way to Stone Town. Barbour would probably have been annoyed had he overheard the conversation, for he had asked his questions of the landlady in & confiâ€" dential manner. â€" But, although he knew a great deal, he understood very little about the virility of country "Is he staying here now?" asked Mark, thinking that too much indifferâ€" ence might cause suspicion. The anâ€" swer he received was negative. Mark affected amusement, and presâ€" ently left the company to join the others in the avction. _/ 0f,9;7¢,,¢;,7,¢!,¢.,0, 0.; ,.,!,,¢,¢0¢,0.C¢.C .

A ROMANCE By Kennaway James Presently she produced the piece of leather bearing the coatâ€"ofâ€"arms, and gave it to him to examine. "Most interesting," he said, "I have seen many, but never one like this," whereupon he reeled out a number of technical details contérning it, Then he added: "But I am boring you with technicalities. _ Kindly allow me to take a few notes of it, and then I will let you know all about it. I hope you will permit me to call again?" After they had chatted before the pineâ€"log fire, and Jill had offered him the usual hospitality of the countryâ€" side in the form of a glass of homeâ€" made wineâ€"cowslip on this occasionâ€" she took him up to the room which her father had used as a kind of study, for old Jasper Merridew had spent a great deal of time in reading and writing behind the old oak door which Barbour was now admiring. "Those are the names of apples, l suppose?" said Barbour as they enterâ€" e the house, at her suggestion. "What a romantic life you lead, to be sure." She ceased work when he entered the farmyard and went to meet him, holding out a hand which was damp and fragrant with apple juice. "Excuse my hand," she said laughâ€" ingly, "but it‘s only appleâ€"juice, and the best at thatâ€"William Pips, Tom Putts and a few others." Meanwhile Phillip Barbour had paid his promised visit to Jill. He found her helping with the ciderâ€"making, where she rmade an attractive picture as she moved among the more sombreâ€" Iy clad workers. Her claretâ€"colored shirt was the only splash of color on this grey November day. Jill could not refuse, even had she wished. Further, Sshe was rather reâ€" lieved that he had not again brought up the subject of her father‘s papers. Mark had much to divert his mind from Barbour during the next few hours, and it was not until the end of the auction that he became again the victim of gloomy foreboding. curiosity. ‘He as quite unaware that by asking a few questions about Jill he had made himself the subject of much speculation in the hotel. _"Of course," she said. "And now perhaps you would like to look round my farm?" ; my farm?" Barbour expressed delight at the idea, and soon the pair were wanderâ€" ing around one Oof the bestâ€"kept farms in the country. There were many winks and rods among the workers in the farmyard, and o:d George forâ€" got to stamp his cold feet as he watchâ€" ed the couple until they were out of sight. "Dear me dear me," he said to those around him, "what a thing it would be if I had to help to draw them from the church to Stone Town like I did her father when he was wed." "Hold your noise, you mischievous old devil," said one of the men, and soon the cider work had begun again. Meanwhile Phillip was telling Jill that he was going back to London within an hour or so, and that one of the first things he would do would be to visit the College of Heralds on her behalf. But in this Mr. Barbour was not telling the truth, for the first thing he did when he reached London was to go to a dingy little restaurant in the foreign quarter of Soho, where, passing through to a private room at the back, he was greeted by two disâ€" tinctly foreignâ€"looking me who were evidently expecting him. Densti‘s Cafe in Soho, at which Phillip Barbour arrived on his return from Jill‘s country, was indistinguishâ€" able from others of its kind in that eccentric locality. It had a ridicuâ€" lously short frontage and, judging from a framed card by the door, a ridiculously long menu, There were, or at least, so one guessed, two similar soups and ten different entres, The element of doubt lay in the transitory quality of the ink in which these pleasures of within were announced to those without. It was kept by one named Denstanâ€" duros who, apart from his ingratiatâ€" ing manner, was not at all a bad felâ€" low.

He did well in his cafe, but he did almost better in his little back room where the gentlemen â€"such nice gentlemen, yes?â€"used to meet and talk about thir business. They bought much wine, and many of his cigars. And sometimes when their business was good and their hearts were warm, they would give him one, two, or three pounds for himself. What was their business How did it matter? It was not his affair. He greeted Barbour on his arrival. "Ha!l Mr. Barbour," he cried with glee. "You are back again. You will find your friends in the backâ€"M. Merâ€" tens, M. Barhold and Mr. Dogsbody, as you call him. They already have the wine and are waiting for you." Barbour gave him a friendly pat on CHAPTER III.

Cambridge, Eng.â€"Cambridge Uniâ€" versity has formulated & plan for giving monetary help to indigent stuâ€" dents. It has been found possible to take this step owing to the improveâ€" ment in the financial situation during the past year. The government‘s annual grani has not been reduced, as seemed at one. time likely, while the fall in the uniâ€" versity‘s income has been less than was expected. A surplus of income over expenditure is therefore availâ€" able. This surplus is to be used to create a loan fund, from which underâ€" graduates already in residence who might experience financial difficulty in finishing their corses, will receive assistance. Cambridge Assists Students Cambridge University has more than 5,000 students, and it is estiâ€" mated that more than 40 per cent. of these are only enabled to attend the university by means of external finanâ€" cial â€" helpâ€"scholarships, â€" bursaries, government grants, and other similar aids.

A New Device is Designed to Save Space in Libraries Lord Bryce once wrote that if the ancient Greeks and Egyptians had relied on the printed word for recordâ€" ing historic events we would know little of their civilization. Stone enâ€" dures, paper crumbles. On the other hand, it wou‘ld take a square mile of carved stone obelisks to tell us as much about ancient Egypt as we fird in a single printed volume. _ Despite their compactness, printed books accumuiate so rapidly that our libraries must of necessity become imposing structures. Hence the in ventions which have been discussed in the last twentyâ€"five years for saving space. The latest of these was anâ€" nounced last week in Chicago before the Special Libraries Association by Charles Z. Case .of the Eastman Koâ€" dak Company. The main feature of the Eastman method is, of course, a camera. Like other cameras designed for the same purpose, it can photograph more than eight fullâ€"size newspaper pages on a strip of film 1% inches by 12 inches a. d a month of fiftyâ€"page papers on a single reel less than 4 inches in diaâ€" meter. The film thus prepared is to be read in newspaper offices or public librar ies on a simple viewing device by which the tiny page images are enâ€" larged to half again the size of the original newspaper. Articles from the files may either be read from the viewing device or copied full size on photographic paper. In addition to saving space, the film partly overcomes the difficulty preâ€" sented by the deterioration of the ground woodâ€"pulp on which most newspapers are printed. Film is chemically more stable than newsâ€" print, but it cracks and crumbles unâ€" less kept in a humidor. mtaffeful 1t â€"â€" â€"â€"~~â€"â€"â€"nâ€"ene Save on Ties For Christmas The famous LONGERLYFE (for Longer Life) Handâ€"made, Silkâ€" faced tiee worth $2.50.

With regard to apples, the United States is the world‘s largest exporter, Canada holds second place, and Ausâ€" tralia third. "Statistics of fruit proâ€" duction," says the report, "are too imperfect in too many countries.£or any measurement,. of changes in che world output of the various fruits to be possible. There can be little doubt, however, that production of nearly all fruits has tended to expand during the past decade, more Aoticeably perâ€" haps in countries whica grow fruit extensively tor export that where it is grown solely for the domestic marâ€" ket. But in addition there is a tenâ€" dency, generally prevalent, towards improved methods of production and marketing. Even in countries where aggregate production appears not to have increased, there has been a defâ€" inite move towards the production of more commercially marketable fruit. Concentration Upon Commercial Orchards The commercial production of ap» ples in the British Dominions has inâ€" creased materially; in the United States and the United Kingdom the numbers of apple trees have declined (in the United States by as much as 100 million between 1910 and 1930), but the trees are now more concenâ€" trated in commercial orchards and the greater care and attention they receive has resulted in no diminution in the quantity of fruit produced and a marked improvement in its average of quality. In Europe generally much the same change has occurred, and in several countries farm orchards are steadily being displaced by commercial orchards, more carefully tended, and planted with varieties of apples more suited to modern market requireâ€" ments. In the aggregate, however, the increase in the worlid production of apples is probably of no very great dimensions when compared with the increase that has taken place in most agricultural products. But such expedients are only of & temporary character it was contendâ€" ed at the conference, "It is a signiâ€" fieant fact," said Miss Caroline Hasâ€" lett, Honorary Secretary of the society, "that during this period of world industrial depression, women in the engineering world, having made good in the work they have taken up, have maintained their posiâ€" tion solely on the grounds of their merit, and the fact that their servâ€" ices are of definite value." She told too of how, when she wrote & book on commercial flying, she was informed by ber publisher that n# such work would be acceptable if written by a woman, and so had to give way and make reluctant use of a male pseudonym. She told of how, in order to make & start, she and her sister found it necessary to "gateâ€"crash" into De Havilland‘s airplane factory, and then be content to work as fabric hands, and afterwards ag hand in the engine shop, where they only "stampâ€" ed numbers on different componp» ents," before they eveneutlly reachâ€" ed something more adventurous.
