Writer Sees Vast Possibi'itirs for
Moving Pictures.
"P
Visualized Geography and History v,
Among Subjects Which Would ro
Claim the Eager Attention of uj.
Pupils of All Grades. jec
Visualized geography, it Is believed. fin,
will heat the maps a I den! fur- (0(
ther than a live bird he:*ts a stuffed ?r
one. :
Likewise, visualized history, it is ex- j ers
pected, will beat the narratives of the J ff.r
^^ooks. which we sometimes say, when j fhi
""W.ey are written by a graphic writer. j.1(
make the dead past live again. hut it vve
is visualized history that will indeed ne!
resurrect the >a*t. so far as a moving his
x picture can make a scene that Is past wa
and gone real again. For these terms, pfl
' visualized geography and visualized ce
history, are used with reference to the wh
possibilities and the development of
the moving picture. wn
The president of one of the big mov- ^
Ing picture companies has been talk- m,,
ing very eloquently about the use of hoi
the film in the schools and surely he fev
brines before our imagination a thou- fre
sand school hooms full, not of languid co,
but of eager pupils, educators are w;i
thinking about the same thing, and we an,
may be thankful that ^ey are. for 0f
more of fact, Information and lnstruc- CHI
Hon in the film service to this age, Cj(]
and less, of hysteria, emotionalism. <}al
cheap farce and thrill is a desideratum, ajv
asserts Omaha World-Herald. ^V1
The classes in geography will see an,
| the mountains, the plains, the rivers, js
animated by such life as is peculiar ]
to them. They will see the natural CU]
products of various countries being ev(
cultivated or gathered. Before them
will appear companies of the inhabit- ca,
ants of each. In front of the eyes will .
troop the wild animals of which they s^(
see only the flat prints in the books. vjs
They will see exports moviog out ann 1
imports moving In, the work at the as
wharves, the carrying to the seaboard, gu|
the laden ships plowing the ocean. It
will he like taking them traveling over .
the earth to learn what it looks like, ?j-,
and they will get the vivid impression .je
that is made on the eye. and their jpi
memory will be associated as by a vo
personal recollection. * ,
As for history, millions have been
able to see on the screen the momentous
history that has been in the
making during the last few years?the
camps and cantonments, the marching
columns, the moving ocean transports,
the busy shipyards, the construction ei
and factory work of the war, the batteries
In action, the destroyed cities, ,h<
the flight of refugees, the command- ve'
log figures whether on the field or In to]
the government cabinet?all the scenes Pa
of war, of war-swept countries, ne
glimpses of wretchedness and the mln- ne
istratlons of comfort and mercy- Here- nli

historical events will be kept for thl

and the Instruction of after genera- mj
tlons. ?c
It Is going to be a big work to get
the moving picture Installed as a com- **I
mon equipment for educational work Wi
In the schools. Schools will have to Iot
have the films and the machines, and '
they will require men. teachers or not. ag
to operate them. This signifies that a
great development of moving picture ou
facility will have to be made in all ge:
the appliances and technique connected
with the exhibition of the pictures.
The moving picture will overflow from *,
the theater Into the schools, for It ..Q
would be Impossible for the theater* ]0,
alone to do the work. It will also be ^
necessary to Improve the production ^
of the pictures on the screen so that 0j(
there will be no problem of vision and ^
no over-stralulng of the eyes of <fhil- cg,
, dren?a difficulty not yet overcome ,
save when equipment and operation agj
are the very best. (

Bald Eagles Photographed.
A. S. Dockham, photographer of the ut
h Lafayette National park, has succeed- jnj
ed in making a photograph of two ?
young bald eagles in their nest near gp,
Eagle lake, Maine, In the top of a high ta
maple, 50 feet from the ground. Mr. Dockham
erected a platform on which gei
a ladder was raised. The ladder top jDj
was 00 feet above the ground and
commanded a fine view of the nest. qU
He clamped his camera on the ladder wc
and led a siring from the shutter to
the CTOtch of the tree about L'O feet tei
lower. Here he remained and watched ujj
the nest. In order to obtain the pho- <
tographs he was forced to remain In me
the tree for five hours. ?
Milwaukee's "Medicinal" Water.
The city of Milwaukee has been
greatly bothered with a peculiar taste
in its drinking water. The water is ~ ,
obtained from the lake and Is chlorinated
before distribution. At first It
was thought that the chlorine produced flr
the taste, but a series of tests proved
that this was not the source of con- ,H!S
tamination. There seems to he some Yc
connection between the intensity of
the taste and the direction of the j
wind, and finally the source of trouble m(.
was located in a couple of plants, ope of
l three miles away and the other eight e(j
miles away. which were producingcoal .

DOLLIE'S CURE
By MILDRED WHITE.
?
"And so." finished Aunt Abigail,

bonds so stroni: as the weakness
th which an invalid holds her sub t.
'Douglas has tried one nurse after
other; capable, charming women.
>, but not one could bring his mothto
any degree of helpfulness to herf.
Mrs. Cameron relies upon oth;
for her slightest need, and all are In
Tor of her hysterical outbursts. Not
it Celia Cameron is noisy in her nt ks,
but her silent and prolonged
eping wears more I think upon one's
:ves. Her husband spoiled her by
; unreasoning devotion, and Douglas
s forced to continue the slavery,
rdon me, my dear, much as I love
lia Cameron, slavery is the word
ich expresses her exactions. And
en it became evident that Douglas
s paying attention to yourself, my
iscience chided nie for being the
ans of bringing you together. It is
nest of him to ask you to spend a
v weeks at his home in bis mother's
tful society before urging yon to bene
engaged to him. He certainly
nts you to know what you are about,
il from what Huldnh White told me
her experience as nurse there I
i foresee that your visit will be de- j
ledlv short. You have neither Hill- |
h's patience nor endurance. You've j
cays been humored yourself, Doilie.
ften I try to fancy Douglas' mother
d you in the same house?the thing
impossible."
Doilie clasped her arms about her
rl.v head, and into the china-bine
?s which had caused her family to |
stow upon her the name of Dolly j
me an Inscrutible light. I,
'Yet..I am going to marry Douglas," j
p said, "and I'm going to make that
:it." tj
Douglas himself looked apprehensive |
he met his sweetheart at the
hurbnn station and drove her out to
s fine old home.

Dolfie agreed wi?h a doubtful smile

"I get tired" of talking myself," she
d the Invalid sadly, "it ruffles my

"Nerves!" cried the other, and she
ined o?gerly forward. #
"My doctor forbids the subject, and
e nurses were like sticks when I
ntured a thought. It will be comrttng
at least to talk to one who sym-'
thetically understands. Douglas
ver told me that you also suffer from
rves. Now, do you have wakeful
jhts, and crying turns, and?"
"I often cry," admitted Dollle, "if
ings don't go my way. And?I just
n't fuss doing every little thing for

"Douglas brings the reclining chair

Jumping into it, Dollie closed her

"Oh, dear!" moaned the girl, tears

lids.
"If you cry," Mrs. Cameron said
erulously, "I shall leave you. It

"What," asked Dollle suddenly ln ested,
"do you do when you feel
e crying?"
"Some one usually tries to distract
the Invalid replied.
"But how?" Dollie persisted.
"Miss White used to tell me stories,"
e said at last.
Dollie reclined again with a relieved

"Suppose," she suggested, "that you

st starred off to school, and?some
his naughtiness, too. I?love Doug??more
than any one In the world,

Light of reminiscence shone in the i

happy memory curved her restrain- '
Hps.
"There was the time," she began,
d then she told her story. v
As his mother moved houseward,
dlle's blue eyes opened to twinkle
Douglas' perplexity.
"All she wanted was some one to
in and think for. You were too big

She sprang lightly out of her chair.
"Oh: I can see," said Dollie, that
