27 CLASS 1 — Travel, Sports, Manners and Customs REEL NO. TITLE PRODUCER every man must engage in ten different branches of sport, studying each intensively for a period of six weeks. In addition to views of the cadets on dress parade and at their setting-up exercises, we see them boxing, fencing, wrestling, swimming and riding, as well as at mess. To see this subject is to feel a patriotic pride in our wonderful Military Academy and the men that it develops. 819 feet standard length Rental $1.25 1056 Code CAKER Mont Blanc Burlingham Mont Banc, the "Fool Killer," in the Swiss Alps, is 15,781 feet high. With Frederick Burlingham, who has scaled it four times, we set out from Chamonix toward the Great Mules, or rock pyramids at its base, passing first the Glacier des Bossons and then the Arve, an icy river flowing from the Mer de Glace. Climbing the Brevent on mules and stopping en route to pick huckleberries we come to the Aiguille du Midi, which is over 12,000 feet high and is part of the same chain as Mont Blanc. We are now at the level where the snow never melts, but keep on and after much effort attain our objective. A final view through a telescope shows us climbers attaining a hazardous position at the very summit of the rocky peak. 767 feet standard length Rental $1.25 1058 Code CAKOR They Grow Everywhere Chester-Outing A visit to the fascinating Islands of Japan where our wanderings take us among the Japanese children of all ages. "Little mothers" of eight or ten years are playing with their baby brothers or sisters strapped on their backs. Other little Jap girls are having a dancing lesson, still other youngsters playing chess, balancing on a swinging log, etc. Two little rich girls go thru the formality of eating supper under the watchful eye of their governess and then their couch is brought in and spread upon the floor and they go to bed with their heads uncomfortably propped up on a high bolster so that their hair will not be disarranged. 719 feet standard length Rental $1.00 1062 Code CAMI Among the Araucanians Chester This is a tribe of Indians dwelling back from the seashore in the mountains of Chile. The subject opens with several views of the boat starting to visit the land of the Araucanians. Leaving the ship and climbing into the mountains, we see first very large herds of sheep and then reach the village of thatched huts which is the home of the tribe. Their home life is portrayed and several views quite interestingly show the various stages in the making of large earthenware jars. Next we witness a fiesta, which is given to celebrate the initiation of a medicine woman of the tribe. Coarse jewelry made by the natives from the silver mined in the neighborhood is of passing interest, but the most interesting scenes are the weaving of native baskets in a very skillful and highly artistic manner.
