Not with shouts and hoorays, we may be sure of that, but presumably with a childish confidence that in taking' their pleasuro away we were doing our best for them.
WHAT A CHILD! What a child is this. For if any joy, surely, is to be killed it is that of the child deprived of his de lighted gurgle over Mickey Mouse. Flip the Frog, the glorious animal life, the wonderful trains, airplanes, mountains, skies, fights, adventures and swordplay which we all, out of our childishness, enjoy.

"goodness," beauty and truth will be put before, child- ren, as Mackenzie proposes, Such. a child would be un adult of almost priggish philosophie bearing.
But, assuming such a child came into being, and films of such a kind were demanded by them, ther Mr. Mackenzie has my assuranes that the film world would be the Arst to supply the demand. When a children's cinema is really want- ed it will be found. In Amerien, for example, children have not taken kindly to sound filhos, and producers are striving to find pic- tures which will please them,
