What a force to be reckoned with would be the combined efforts of
school, library and cinema as factors in education. These two former
sections have become more united during the last few years. It is only
recently that the activities of the Public Library Authorities have
been fully appreciated by the Education Authorities. The outlook is
now brighter, and a recognized harmony exists; their efforts now being
united for the furtherance of educational ideals.
All educational aims should be to broaden, deepen, improve and
strengthen the childish imagination, both sympathetic and intellectual.
If used without proper supervision, there is not a more harmful agency
than the cinema.
Mention is made elsewhere of the Cinema Commission, the London County
Council, and the Birmingham Education Committee and what they are
undertaking on behalf of the school.
