of water skiis. Speeding to Japan, the camera man catches a few shots of roosters with tails twelve feet long.
The picture closes with a thrilling underwater scene depicting a fight between a starfish and a haliotis (no relation to halitosis). An exceptional amount of entertainment and education condensed into one reel.

HAIR RAISING MOMENTS
Once in a lifetime a camera man happens to be on hand with his ec[uipment all ready at a time when some thrilling or breath-taking event occurs. A number of such hair-raising incidents have been collected and compiled in this one reel of excitement and interest. The first shot shows six men making parachute jumps from airplanes at the same time. Another astounding view is of a river of lava from a volcano destroying a large building. A man confined in a straightjacket hangs head downward from the undercarriage of an airplane and frees himself. Planes do all sorts of death-defying stunts, including flying for a considerable distance upside down.
U. S. IN FIVE EASY MINUTES is the title of another subject on the same reel. It includes points of interest from Brooklyn Bridge to the Big Trees of California.
This reel also includes a sequence in which an automobile turns a somersault while another car slides beneath it, and a thrilling game of automobile push ball.

SACRED TEMPLES OF JAPAN
COLORFUL NARA PARK
FROM COCOON TO KIMONA
TEAK LOGGING WITH ELEPHANTS IN SIAM
Reflecting the exotic mystery of Japan, this film opens with a view of Nikko, the sacred bridge over which only the Emperor and the Empress are allowed to pass. The visitor sees several unusual sights, including the most beautiful shrine in the world, built between 842 and 854 A. D.
Colorful Nara Park is full of tame deer about which an interesting legend is told. In this park there is a huge bell weighing 60 tons. The great Diabutsa statue at Kaurakara, erected in 152, has eyes four feet long, made of solid gold.
From Cocoon to Kimona shows clearly how silk is produced. Japan's annual production of cocoons is twenty million bushels. We see the tiny worms from the time they are hatched until the cocoons are unravelled, forming the raw silk of commerce.
Teak Logging with Elephants in Siam illustrates how elephants are trained to work powerfully and intelligently piling massive logs of teak wood.
All four of these travelogues are highlv interesting and educational.
