The basic principle of filming books is much the same as that used in making motion pictures, Dr. Bishop pointed out. It merely entails run- ning a strip or roll of film repro- ducing pages of a book through a A Good Definition Of News-Memory Authority. Forgets When an authority on the subject of memory forgets, well, that's news. It all began way back in the early days of the Republic, when a group of homesick pilgrims invented a day of thanksgiving, on which they could feast on turkey and cranberry sauce, and be mutually sympathetic over their respective stomach-aches. On Nov. 28 in the year 1935, a cer- tain elementary psychology class in the University of Michigan was scheduled to study the field of mem- ory, but it developed that that day was Thanksgiving. Dr. George Mey- ers, instructor of the class and au- thority on memory, decided to have a makeup section in the subject on the afternoon of the following Saturday, in order to maintain the regular schedule. Per agreement, the stu- dents assembled in the classroom on Saturday afternoon and waited for the instructor to appear. He never showed up. He had failed to remem- ber an appointment for a lecture on memory. Is it any wonder then, that on the following Tuesday, when the class belatedly buckled down to the study, of memory, Dr. Meyers seemed a bit reluctant to give any positive prin- ciples or laws as to the most efficient way to remember. All he had to say about the whole affair was, "Oh, the irony of it all." Prof. Bredvold Talks Over Air On Literature Faculty Member Discusses And Interprets Writings Of 18th Century "Eighteenth Century Literature" was the topic of a lecture given yes- terday by Professor Louis I. Bredvold of the English department over the University Broadcasting Service. Explaining first that in order to understand history we must not only know what man was but what he wanted and tried to be, Professor Bredvold declared the eighteenth cen- tury can be understood best by know- ing what its ideals were. "The ideals of that period were in many respects very different from those of our own." He said that these were composed of desires for beauty, perfection, and elegance. The custom of men wearing wigs, silver buckles on the shoes, a suit of peach- colored velvet, and lace display well the elaborateness of the age, he con- tinued. The manners. too, were quite gracious and elaborate, as seen in the novels of Jane Austen, Professor Bredvold sid. The furniture and the architecture, the colonial architecture widely im- itated in our modern buildings, which is concerned "with the perfection and symmetry of design, in the most ex- quisite and pleasing proportions, in beauty of geometrical purity," as il- lustrations of the taste of the eigh- teenth century, the speaker =com- mented. Professor Bredvold illustrated these ideals from the literature of the pe- riod, in which be believes is "the same desire for beauty, for perfection, and for elegance." Welfare Bureau's Work Described (Continued on Page 2) agencies is duplicated because they believe the system of distributing the case loads is haphazardly arranged," Miss Valentine said, "but this year we have established a clearing bureau at the Salvation Army quarters in order to avoid this overlapping of work." Before taking over any case, the wel- fare agencies in the city call the bu- reau, which has records of the case loads of each organization to find out if the particular family is being cared for by some other agency. Financial guidance is one of the services rendered by the Bureau, Miss Valentine said. In many cases where the father gets a job after having been unemployed for a long time, the family sometimes will spend his sal- ary on needless luxuries, without real- izing that they must have money for - 1 FOUNTAIN PENS and PENCILS - Desk bases, desk sets.

"We try to help them by drawing up budgets, or by giving them advice as to how they can best manage on what they have," she stated, "although we do not force them to follow our advice." However, although service is the primary aim of the Bureau, it is coupled with financial aid. The Bu- reau receives $9,000 a year from the Community Fund with which its work can be carried on.
