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. Those who saw it and
doubted it hesitated to say so be-
