42 Pathex Motion Pictures Bringing Sacred and Historic Spots Into Your Own Home Travel and Exploration Films "The Acropolis of Athens" No. T 1 One Reel $1.00 Centuries before the Christian era, Greek Athens gave the world a new range of wisdom and new perceptions of beauty. This picture shows much of the ancient city, now reduced to ruins. "Antique Athens" No. T 2 One Reel $1.00 This might be screened with the preceding film. It shows the Roman Agora or market place and many other interesting views. "Arab Women" No. T 3 One Reel $1.00 Women's rights definitely shoved into the background and the inferiority complex, or something, most unhappily present in this exposition of the costumes and customs of the North African natives. "Arab Milliners" No. T 4 One Reel $1.00 A film which should interest child-labor experts. Arab children are shown plaiting and weaving the strips of palm leaf from which are made the immense hats, worn in the desert as protection against the beating sun. "A Trip Into Alsace" No. T 5 One Reel $1.00 Whether under French or German rule, Alsace always has been Alsace; that is part of its pride. As in other French provinces, Alsace has its own characteristic garb; and it is not only picturesque but beautiful. "A Visit to Strasburg" No. T 6 One Reel $1.00 The interesting old city which has figured in several modern wars. A surprising number of views have been collected on this little film — including the former Kaiser's Palace. Mil pp["*«S tin fauffh.J*» ^ ^Mc9 Willi, kESmh ■m
