Printed Word is Conquering Movie. That the printed word has caused the downfall of the movies Is the un- usual etateimont of Perclval Renters, of Boston. "The first public exhibition of mo- tion pictures at Koster & Dials' Music Hall, In 1896, whe^reln Anabelle, the dancer, and the surf at Dover sihared tho applause of a silk-hatted audience," he writes, "was a demonstration of pure pictorial language. The spec- tators in the front rows who started to leave for fear of a wetting from the waves and returned for Anabelle need- ed no titles to spur their reactions. The message of the pictures was direct and unmistakable as the voice of an Italian stage prompter. "Steadily, in the ensuing thirty years, the motion plctvu^ lost Its In- dependence. As soon as some clever fellow In the studios discovered that something resembling the King's Eng- lish could bo used in printed titles to effect short cuts In the story and a The first roadside tree planting^ In England on an extensive scale haa been accomplished by the County of Middlesex. Five miles of trees ex- ' tend alonfc the sides of the Great West Road, and 13 miles of trees have recently been planted on other now arterial roads, such as the great Oambriifce Road, the North Circular ; Road, and the Great West Road Ex- ' tension. j Elvery mile of tho Great West Road haa a difTercmt kind oif tree. In years to come, therefore, a magnifi- cent av«'nuc of varying: foliage wiH b© seen; of beech, maple, linne, chest- ; nut and plane trees. They are planted 60 feet apart on a carpet of grass 25 feet wide. Some day the i planters hope, people will go to see that avenue of trees as they go to : see the chestnuts In Bushey Park- The Middlesex authorities h&ve ' tried to put color into their roadside vista. Along the other new arterial roads have been planted red and white chestriut trees, beech and cop- per beech, scarlet tipped limes, Nor- way maples, Cornish elms, scarlet oak, purkey oak, and common ash. Only forest trees have been planted, because of their slow growth. The planters do not want to have to lop their trees. People have wondered why laburnham and alnvond trees have not been chosen, but their size makes them impossible even for a road 100 feet wide. PLANTING IN TOYKO. Toyko, which has been planting trees in the streets since the begin- ning of the seventeenth century, held a conference in 1907 on the trees suitable for street planting. The superintendent of parks in Toyko was in London recently and left the London County Council a report of his city's experience in planting street trees. He takes us back to the World Exposition in Vienna in 1875, when a visitor from Japan saw Trees of Heaven and locust trees and brought them to Toyko. It was curl- ooi that h« should have gone so iar> tor the Heaven Tree, for it belongi to China, The earthquake in 1928 destroyed 14,800 of Toyko's trees, leaving 10,- .'iOO. A partially new start could therefore be made and there are now 16,800 trees in the streets. They Include two of the best English street trees â€" the plane and a tree similar to the English acacia â€" Sophora Jiu ponica. The Heaven Tree also flour- ishes, and, of course, the flowering cherry. Last spring Toyko sent London 30 species of flowering cher- ries and plums among nearly 1,000 other trees, planted mostly in Peck- ham Rye Park. The Japanese plant the weeping willow in their streets, but it does not "weep" so much as the English variety. The trees are planted on the sidewalks 24 feet apart in roads over 18 feet wide. Some of the new roads have two or three lines of trees. But there is no grass at their roots; Japan canrot grow grass be- cause of the dry climate. ENGUSH OAKS SENT. English oak trees found an ad- mirer in the Japanese park super- intendent, and 100 little oaks iiave been sent by the London County Council in exchange for the Japan- ese trees. These are for one of tho r.jrfks. It was the superintenjont'a idea to have the British Amba.';sador plant them in one of the parks. English visitors to Japanese pr.rks will also presently see their own flowers, such as canterbury bells, del- phinium, foxgloves, hollyhocks, hon- esty, clarkia, campanula, and asters. Altogether, 271 English trees and shrubs in 21 varieties have gone to Toyko, and a large collection of seeds. Toyko sent in exchange seeds of 55 varieties of trees and shrubs, and these are being culti- vated at Kew Gardens and other bo- tanical centres, as well as at the liOndon County Council Nursery at Avery Hill. Lord Haldane's Mother. "Few families have been united by bonds BO close as those of the Hal- danes of doan. The tie between a mother 'and a famous eon has given rise to many tender and beautiful pages In history, but no page more ten- der and more beautiful than that tie betweea Lord Haldano and his'^other. Her© again we tread on ground too intimate for public gaz«. In a dally oorrespondenoe of more than fifty years no pressure of public business or of abstract thought stood between, savings in pictorial phraseology, the 'the letter which, written nightly by Jig was up. "Come tho dawn" and tho son from tho heart of affairs In "Later" and "No placo to go" were tokens of tho surrender of pure pic- torial drama to tho helpful ministra- tions of an older form of expression. In 1S09 or thereabouts these etock titles comprised less than one twelfth of the nim footage. By 1926 the art of expresaion by moving pictorial images had made such rapid strides backward that for one fourth and often one third of tho nmning time of a film It called upon thf> aid of tho printed word. A few more titles per thousand f<v6t of film and the twenty miUlons who have heretofore been class'lfled as motion-picture fans will become an enormous addition to the reading pub- lic."
