22 SECTION I. (a) Travel and Geographical (Cont.) of tlicsc nomads there are scenes of business dealings, gambling, fortune telling and, as a terrific climax, a wild tribal dance. 1705 Marseilles 1 Reel Here is another miniature epic by Maholj'-Nagy, Seen through this artist's cnxs, the Vieux Port district of Marseilles assumes a peculiar beauty. Nothing is glossed over, nothing that portrays the character of this quarter is dubbed unimj^ortant. A film not to be missed. 3059 When Winter Comes in the Yosemite 1 Reel Entering through El Portal we travel fifteen miles down to the floor of the valley. Then a climb of nearly 2,000 ft. brings us to El Capitan. We see winter sports in progress. Other points of interest are the Happy Isles, North Dome, Mirror Lake, Royal Arches, Sentinel Rock and Cathedral Spires. 3100 The Philippine Islands 1 Reel This film shows the city of Manila and the main industries of the islands, sugar and coconut growing and the cultivation of rice and hemp. 3103 The Panama Canal 1 Reel Scenes and animations show the importance of the Panama Canal and picture the gigantic task of sanitation and construction undertaken to shorten the route to the Pacific. Many fine scenes of the canal to-day are supplemented by historic views of its construction. 3106 Hawaiian Islands 1 Reel Portrays Honolulu and its surroundings — the pineapple and sugar industries, native life and the seething molten lava of Kilauea. 3108 Mohawk Valley 1 Reel Pioneer days on this important route from the Eastern coast of the U.S.A. to the Middle West and the great Lakes are contrasted with modem scenes including a number of typical industries and places of interest. 3126 Alaska 1 Reel Depicts the scenery, industries and hfe of Alaska, including gold mining, salmon fishing, seal hunting, whaling, native life and schools and the prosperous farms of American settlers. This film helps to dispel the belief that Alaska is a country of nothing but ice and snow. Order by numbers. FOR PRICES SEE PAGE 3
