Trust that such a fraud could not be allowed ia gone now and its going sets back in a deplorable condition the high standard for education as wall aa entertainment that the public bad begun to feel existed in motion picture productions. Responsible motion picture cor porations should demand that no By OLIVE DOAK Expvjsuro of fraud in the much heralded motion picture "Ingagi" brings into the open a vital situa tion in the life of everyday people. Educators have been slowly, very slowly, arriving at the con clusion for the past several score of years that people learn through seeing things done much more quickly than by reading about how things are done. With the advent of motion pic tures came a practical means for education for the masses. First it was rather a poor kind of educa tion, but as the vision of the peo ple behind the productions broad ened through an appreciation of what could be done with pictures, and as necessity grew for new plots to hold the attention of the public, the whole field of human existence has become the hunting ground for motion picture produ cers. The result or this is that the public is being treated to short courses in natural history, an cient history, science, art. liter ature, music and as the "appeal" in all this there Is the continaaliy intriguing relationship of man and woman. So long as this short course in pictorial education is based on something like facts which may be observed and carried away as an accurate portrayal of the theme filched from the heritage of the past and the realm of, present there Is nothing to be said but good the world needs enlighten ment. There is sufficient misinfor mation and superstition to be found. "Ingagi" taught of life in Af rica. It purported to be a true picture of the queer and myster ious relationship of human be ings and animals and to draw box office receipts it showed this re lationship in a manner most dis gusting when it became public that the greater part of the whole thing was farce. Mr. Hayes let this fraud get a long way toward paying the cost of production before he discovered its falsity. A situation was cre ated through this unfortunate "oversight" that spells broken faith with the public. The picture came out under the head of au thority.
