ART AND THE FILM.
“All through the ages the artist has struggled to share with other men that which he has received. He has beaten passionately against tlje walls of that prison-house that isolates every human sonlr IVe may say that to the artist there is nothing common or unclean, nothing that cannot be made to serve the ends of nobility mediated through the human consciousness. The flint and its mechanical accessories aie a new medium in the hands of an artist. That it has been a plaything unintelligently used is no argument against its ultimate greatness. As well to have said that because the first music "of the reed was made by children at play it could never, as n mighty organ, grow into the most majestic of musical instruments.” —“TTrbanns” in the “Church Times.”
