The use of the current magazines as text books Is growing In popularity, hut. more slowly than It is desirable that it shoald. Few young people are given to read- ing the news of the day concerning subjects of national Interest and im- .'» portancc. Few have developed the habit of reading magazines except for the stories which they contain. In few homes are the questions of the day discussed. There is really no op- portunity for the boys and girls just at the age of looking out after new interests, to find those subjects which tell the story of today which will be the history of tomorrow. Proper, use of the magazine text books requires wise instruction. Partisanship, political bias, an inabil- ity to discern the vital in the multl- I plicity of events, these in the teacher far more than offset any advantage to be gained from the study and dis- cussion of live topics of the day. Given ' the wise instructor and guide, one .... 1 cannot overestimate the value of teaching the .youth in the high and college preparatory schools to dis- cover something of the age in which they live through the discussion of the events as they occur. = =5= 5==E But unfortunately there is little n son to expect diplomacy, tact, or even good judgment when Ve former *ec retary of state launches out on his chosen sea of oratory. We can only expect him to forget on obligation to respect the confidence which was once reposed In.him. We have reason to fear that a well meant errand for the furtherance of brotherly love and peace in Europe would, If it had any affect at all. simply serve to compli- cate our already tangled relations with European governments. If Mr. Bryan matt talk, he had bet- ter talk at home, where we know how to measure what he says. ___ ____fegg OUR REPUTATION ESTABLISHED.

It is Battering to find there listed that films showing "good drama" are most in demand, and the most serious cause for complaint "too many theaters." The two react, the one upon the other. The demand for good drama necessitates the exhibition of expen sive films. The multiplicity of thea- ters limits the territory from which patronage can be drawn. The strength, of the demand is revealed In the neces- sity which the producer feels to yield to it Having satisfied oneself with Chi- cago's reputation for discrimination and good taste in the film drama, one naturally seeks a basis of comparison with some other city, whose ideals are recognized and whoso reputation is established. Boston satisfies the conditions, and It is with complacency and content that one finds Boston's demand to be for "features," and the complaint "a lack of comedy."
