GERMANS PREPARE TO IMPROVE SCHOOLS (Correspondence of The Associated Press.) BERLIN, Sept. 10. The German government is planning to provide edu cational moving pictures for the schools. The theory is that children of the cities never have a chance to study zoology, botany, meteorology, or geol ogy. -It is believed they can lie helped immensely by films on these subjects A big German film company has ar ranged with a Major Krieger to pre pare, under the superintendency of nu merous educators and scientists, a large number of scientific films which can be inserted in the curriculum of the schools and intensify the interest in the studies. The dullest subjects of study, such as the caterpillar, it is planned to illustrate and make vivid. Similarly the film will be used wherever possible .in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and will, it is be lieved, supplant much expensive ap paratus, time-stealing experiments and trips of investigation and study. The difficulty seems to lie in the pro duction of the films, but this is thought to be solved. SENATOR COLON . E. EBFRHARD ' EXPLAINS NEW LAW.
