moving picture films mentioned elsewhere in this issue. This publica- 

 tion, and a previous report by Dr. D. D. Jackson on Water Pollution,

The Bulletin of the Committee of One Hundred on National 

 Health is a 2-page leaflet published monthly from 69 Church St., New

 cism on its technical excellence, but the inspiration is certainly a happy 

 one, and the reader is attracting much attention. It will doubtless 

 contribute to the circus habit.
