He had caught the youngster with a maga- | zine and had presumably judged its | contents by the flamboyant young! lady on the cover. The boy is a nice | boy. but when you come right down | to it, grandfathers don't know every- | thing. 1\ “Bulwer? 1 see myself: Why. I get | more meat out of this fellow’s ex- perience in wircless than in all the string of books Bulwer ever wrote. All right for his generation. of course. but this is another one. And I am it. What we want today is close-ups — movies, headlines and live stuff that doesn’t make you wade up to your neck in descriptions that take i the | snap out of a climax. Yes.

You folks brag| about Scott and Dickens and the rest.! but let me tell you something: You have to read little old Walter an hour before you can get into the atmos- phere of his dialect; Dickens puts enough people in every book to stock two orphan asylums, one good ized poorhouse and a row of hotels. all of them good in their time. but time didn't mean hours and minutes like it does today. If those old writers want to keep from joining the dead languages they will have to be con- densed into scenario. And let me tell you something else. sir—when it comes to u good movie with thrills to it there isn't a Vie- torian along the line that can hold a candle to Miss Braddon—and you know how English critics gave her the silent treatment because Wilkie Colllns, Charles Read and the rest were jealous of the old girl. As Mol- le says'— 5 3 Mollie being a blonde girl who lives in the samc apartment, it is possible that Mies Braddon's belated promo- tion above her scorning cotempo- raries was due to admiration of a girl | yather than appreciation of a writer, | still— It makes a good little tip for those booksellers who have been trying to get at a reason why ctorian fiction is being so literally gpelved by read- ers of today. HISTOR\' repeats herself, but child- hood is always original. A kinder- garten teacher who loves children told her pupils that she would take them on a spring outing and that they must bring their paint boxes along. They started on a day that might have been made expressiy for children by a fairy queen, and when they got a place of trees and fields and sandy beach. the teacher decided that their picture would be a marine. “Children, we will paint the rive And before she could get in a word of instruction_every crumb of a_child Was romping down to the beach.
