Preview of Films % . By Teachers Urged Los Angles, July 3. --The Na- tional Education Association con- vention was urged recently to es- tablish a system of motion pic- ture previews through which all teachers might see pictures be- fore they are released and de- termine which are best sufted fer students. In an address before the con- vention, Carl E. Milliken, execu- tive secretary of the Motion Pie- ture Producers and distributors of America, stressed the impor- tance of such a system and said that the teachers of America "hold the key to the cultural op- portunities created by the ma- chine age." Children must be trained for leisure as well as work, and in this training lies the secret of ae- complishment, Milliken said Educators can make two uses of the films,' he said. 'The first is by making the screen a tool of education--by using = pedagogic pictures designed especially for classroom use," he explained, "The second and more immedi- ately practical way is by direet- ing school attendance to enter- tainment films shown in your lo- cal theatres which in themselves contain subject matter of educa- tional interest." Coal Price War Has Commenced in Halifax Halifax, N.8., July 3. ~--Something in the nature of a cecal price war started in Halifnx as a result of advertisements Sat- urday in which the Dominion Coal Company. a subsidiary of the Dominion Steel and Coal Cor- peration, advertised its product fer direct sale to the consumer instead of through local dealers. Effective July 1 the company will sell Dominion screened coal from ite yard at a local pier at the rate ofl eight dollars a ton at the chute and nine dollars delivered, a de- crease of two dollars from the previous price of eleven dollars YOU KNOW by reomoE Ir UNDERSENS i Qou are TALLER IN THE MORNING THAN AT .

At the ' conference in Sydney last week of District 26, United Mine Workers of America, one delegate protested against what he termed too great a spread in the cost of coal at the Springhill pithead and the retail selling price. It cost four dollars a ton to mine the coal at Springhill and two dollars to ship it to Halifax, where it retailed for $12, he said Halifax dealers subsequently as- serted their price was $10.50. Zionists to Decide Colonization Policy Basle, Switzerland, July 3 The lines of battle were drawn recently for the opening Tues- day of the 17th Zion congress, which will debate the question of policy in continuation of coloni- zation in Palestine, Although no official action has been taken, the congress already has begun negotiations and pre- parations for what appears likely to he a heated controversy be- twocn the so-called Labor faction and the Revisionist party, aided by. most ot the American delega- tion. The Labor faction strongly fa- vors continued co-operation with Great Britain in the Palestine de- velopment, practical abandon- ment of political activity in Pal- estine and concentration on con- structive work, with Dr. Chaim Weizmann or some other leader with the same viewpoint, heading the movement, The Revisionist group, aided by the American delegation under Rabbi Stephen Wise, favors a new relation with Britain, which Lolds the Palestine mandate, and a program of political activity as opposed to concentration on an economic program. They oppose the leadership of Dr. Weizmann. nN FLOWERS To keep flower gardens looking their best all dying bloom must be removed. Once a plant starts to develop seed pods bloom soon ceases. The easiest way of doing thie with such things as Alyssum, phlox and petunias, which pro- duce very short-stemmed individ- ual bowers, is to use a pair of hand shears. In a couple of weeks after clipping the plants will be covered with a profusion of new bloom. In dry weather it fa advisable to water after this shearing. Tt is also a good thing to pinch back rank growing flow- ers to encourage sturdy growth and early blooming, while all sur- plus growth on those trained plants, such as dahlias, rose bush- es and climbers should be re- moved regularly and before the unneeded stems attain such size that their cutting away will prove shock to the rest of the plant. uquets for indoors should be cuf\ hefore all the buds are open and\these will likely keep coming out Yor a week.

Flier Acts As Lookout for Sword Fisherman Montauk Point, L, I, July 3 -- Something new in sword fishing methods was tried with great suc- cess 30 miles off Montauk Point when Col. O. R. Seagrave flew out to the fishing grounds with his auto gyro plane, located a sword fish and signalled to a boat, whose crew gave chase and landed the sword fish af- ter a 15-minute chase. Capt.

Seagrave took off from the Montauk Yacht Club at 2 o'clock and .was back at his hotel at 3.15 with the news that Captain, Thom=~- son had landed a sword fish about ten feet long. The sword fish was about four miles due east of Capt. Thompson's boat when sighted by Col. Seagrave. he plane returned to the fishing boat and hovering over it at a height of 50 feet signalled the di- rection of the fish. Col. Seagrave idled his plane and watched Capt. Thompson harpoon the fish and fin- ish it with several rifle shots, Col. Sagrave flew low, signalled congrat- ulations and was back at the Mon- tauk Yacht Club in one hour and 15 minutes from the time he- left.
