EDUCATION METHODS HIT BY SCIENTISTS Dr. Hrdlicka One of Group to Re- port Results of Society’s Intellec- tual Stock Taking. By the Associated Press. PHILADELPHIA, April 16.— Criti- cism of present methods of education was voiced by two eminent scientists | from widely separated points in letters | made public yesterday by the American | Philosophical Socigty in connection with its intellectual stock taking. Dr. Ales Hrdlicka, curator of the Division of Physical Anthropology of the National Museum, Washington, said he believes the weakness of the present system lies in the lack of thoroughly instructed and experienced | teachers. ~ Sir William Matthew Flind-, ers Petrie, professor of London University, writing from South Palestine, thinks a change of ideals of | teaching is needed. Dr. Henry Crew, professor of hnlu at Northwestern University, | the younger generation needed l mnre liberal and more cosmopolitan training and an education that would me-uuu integrity, good will and justice. To be freed of pseudo-scientific scholasticism is the world’s need, ac- cording to Dr. Wilhelm Ostwald, Uni- | versity of Leipzig, and Dr. Leslie W. Miller, Philadelphia, declared the world's greatest intellectual need was “a more complete understanding of the human mind itself.” BELASCO—“Paclo and Francesca.” WMII' Jane ‘notsble company in her port reveal the stark tragedy of “Pacle and Prancesoa,” | ¢ relieved in detafl, but not in spirit by the poetry of Stephen Phillip's: lines, leaves the impression that the much- malighed “happy ending” made ine cvmbu by the modern movie director its f. points after all, In the un century a tragedy was a tragedy, and even when Phillips retold an old smr{ he wrote his flly for a theater that believed in seeing thlngs through to the bitter end; that thought' nothing could be beautiful thut ‘wasn't sad and felt that a dead maiden was much more attractive than a live one. There are modern tragedies as moy- ing’as “Paola and Francesca,” but they have resort to the more subtle method of leaving, in the minds of those with a Pollyanna outlook on life, some small loovhole through which there can be pe, if one is, in thought, so inclined. But not s0 in “Paolo and Francesca.” Nothing is left to the imagination; not even the e. A funereal atmosphere descends like a wet blanket in the first act and remains to the bitter end. Miss Cowl's Francesca is grief- stricken from the beginning, but exhib- iting a flash of intuitive sophistication now and then that saves her from be- coming merely an attractive but rather colorless part of the furnishing. In her meeting with Paolo in the garden— which, by the way, is worth any three other scenes of the play put together— she makes the most of her opportunity to give full and rich expression to the beautiful Roel.ry of the dialogue. Only once is s o«ummkm h to do m“’w does it exceedingly well, Phfl:g Merivale's Paolo is a good mate for the lilylike mneem Katherine Emmet credit for her fine chmeueflutlan o( Lucrezia, & woman, by the way, who should afford intense delight to the psychomc busy at his work, of dis- NA'I‘IONAI:—“The Skull.” Fittingly enough, an old New England chureh, deserted since the organist was | . murdered in the chancel 10 years ago is the scene of tne unquumn-b!y startling action of “The Skull,” a mystery play in three acts being pre- sented in the National Theater this week by the National Theater Players. Bernard J. McOwen and Harry E. Humphrey, co-authors, have concocted as thrilling a mystery play as any one could hope to see. It is sufficient to say that the story deals with the evil machinations of an arch crook and the efforts, suc- cessful in the end, of a detective and ;;x assistant district attorney to catch Im. ‘The tongueless church bell tolls, the organ, silent ever since the death of the organist, gives forth the old familiar hymns in haunting tones, belfry bats with human skulls for heads flutter in able to free herself from |the background, and a legion of de- the lamblike submission of Prancesca !parted souls hovers just above the A Woman’s Wealth It MAY bring her worry and perplexity about matters strange to her—investment matters and the like.
