I Editorial m A Word or Two More W TE have increased our pages by fifty per cent in this issue in the vain J\i effort to include all the material in hand for June. Further, the regular ' * departments "Among the Magazines" and "The News Chat" have m temporarily omitted. In spite of these heroic measures, however, we have been forced regret- ly to several omissions, chiefly the new department devoted to the activities Club, Church and Community, which must be postponed to the September mber. We had hoped also to use a page or two for some of the things it have been said about the Educational Screen by editors, educators, and nmercial leaders. > OR a limited time, for such new subscribers as desire it, we can date sub- scriptions from the first number, making possible a complete file of The Educational Screen at no extra charge.

The unquestioned authority of Mr. Fiske in matters theatrical and dramatic makes his condemnation of the theatrical een particularly significant. In the fall we plan to present the same question from quite another gle. An article by Donald Clive Stuart, Professor of Dramatic Litera- te at Princeton University, will discuss greater possibilities of the otoplay, arriving at conclusions rather different from those of Mr. Fiske, d somewhat more favorable to the much-scorned motion picture. 4 MONG the contents for September will be "Limitations of the Motion A Picture," by Professor Richard Burton of the University of Minnesota, -** widely known as a lecturer and essayist, and author of important works the drama.
