Manners and Customs 27 customs. ^ Glaciers and crevasses are shown and a terrific climb to the summit by an intrepid woman and two guides keeps the spectator breathless with apprehension. 287 feet Rental $1.00 1064 Code CAMU Gardening for Gold Chester A trip to Alaska with a party of campers in search of gold. The journey is made by boat, by auto, by horse and on foot. Wonderful views of icebergs, glaciers, snow-capped mountains and mile after mile of rugged Alaskan forests which the campers penetrate to the headwaters of the Simms River. Though unsuccessful in their quest for gold the campers find an abundance of caribou, mountain sheep and other game, and finally return to civilization with their pack horses loaded with trophies of the hunt. 278 feet Rental $1.00 1065 Code CAMAR Cold Shoulders and Warm Welcomes Chester A visit to St. Croix in the West Indies. Upon our arrival in this beautiful harbor we are met by native boatmen who bring their oxen with them to help land the small boats. In the market place we see the natives in gala attire, and then go on into the sugar fields where we watch them gathering sugar cane. This country produces the finest sugar in the whole world. The cane is put on small cars on little sugar railroads which bring the stalks from the fields right into the refineries. Some of the cars are pulled by mules and others by little engines. The old and new methods of crushing sugar cane and extracting the juice are illustrated. Later we are privileged to see a hunting party with hounds and horses which, being unsuccessful in its quest of a fox, resorts to a sport peculiar to this island, and decidedly surprising to the onlooker. After enjoying a dance at the hotel in the evening we see from the hotel porch a native dance on the hotel lawn. We prefer the hotel dance, thank you, but are glad to have seen the other as well. Very excellent photography. 328 feet Rental $1.25 1067 Code CAMIR Mississippi's Water Baby Chester A trip to Lake Itasca, Minnesota, the source of the great Missisippi River. /n the beginning of this picture are some of the most beautiful cloud efifects that have ever been filmed. The country is wild and lovely and abounds in game, some of which is kept in great game preserves. In one of these we see deer making remarkable jumps over a high rail fence. They seem to float thru the air and are wonderfully graceful. On a small bay a flock of wild ducks are swimming; near by is an Indian Reservation ; still further on we see beavers industriously building their dams and houses. Then we have a thrill — a forest fire approaches and we follow its deadly course, watching the attempts to check it and seeing it drive the unsuccessful fighters from their homes. This film is well worth while. Not only does it oflfer beautiful scenery and good photography, but some unusual sights as well. 276 feet Rental $1.00 1068 Code CAMOR The Happy DufTer Sport Pictorial Golf is featured as the national game, and we follow, through a day's sport.
