17 CLASS 1 — Travel, Sports, Manners and Customs REEL NO. TITLE PRODUCER other buildings and in our trip about the city we see these as well as the more modern ones. First comes the Parthenon, built about the Sixth Century B. C. and called the "most perfect monument of ancient art." Then comes the Stadium, 330 B. C, built of Pentellic marble. This huge structure was the original site of the Olympic games and seats 50.000 people. We visit also the Place de la Constitution, Boulevard de l'Universite, Academy of Science and the University. On account of its fascinating history this Greek city is of interest to the whole world and one's studies in ancient history are vividly recalled by the scenes in this film. 878 feet standard length Rental $1.25 1013 Code CACO Children of Roumania Post Despite the fact that for years the children of Roumania have been victims of neglect and poverty, they are bright and very responsive. As a rule they know far more of work than of play. They are too valuable as workers to be forced to go to school and only those who want to go to school do so. If they don't like the teacher they stay away. Each home has its own small flock of sheep which are generally tended by the children, and some of the happiest of the Roumanian youngsters are the boy shepherds up in the remote parts of Transylvania. The farm houses are made of brick and mortared with mud. The bricks are moulded by girls, who after becoming expert, can make as many as 200 in a day. The moulded bricks are baked in the sun. Brick making is hard work for a girl, but the Roumanian youngsters are used to hard work. We are given other views of them carrying heavy burdens, and have an opportunity of seeing many types of children at work and at play. 862 feet standard length Rental $1.25 1014 Code CACU Children of Scandinavia Post These children are characteristically blond, rather slow in action but not in mind. Many beautiful pictures of lovely little children in the most bizarre costumes imaginable. Children of different parts of Scandinavia are shown. Sharp contrast is drawn between the Lapp children dwelling in the far North, and very modern looking Boy Scouts in Southern Sweden. There are several interesting scenes of folk dancing in which the Scandinavians excel. 832 feet standard length Rental $1.25 1015 Code CACAR Norway Post Norway is the second Scandinavian country in size.
