63 CLASS I — Travel, Sports, Manners and Customs REEL NO. TITLE PRODUCER the railroad, we travel for days with pack animals until we reach a country so wild and broken that only human bearers can penetrate it. At last we arrive and, having indicated that our mission is peaceful, we make friends by giving trinkets and can view the natives at close quarters. Their main activity is warfare with neighboring tribes for possession of their only treasure — their women! In this picture one wonders why they should consider it worth while! The winner takes the loser's head and, by a traditional process, dries and shrinks it for a trophy of his prowess. 976 feet standard length Rental $1.25 1121 Code CEDE Jungles of the Amazon Fox Varieties A rare opportunity to join Mr. and Mrs. Herbert S. Dickey exploring the wild and little known tropical jungles of Peru, Ecuador and Brazil. A visit to the primitive Jivero Indians is brought to an abrupt end as the natives make preparations for another of their endless wars on neighboring tribes. So we journey afoot through trackless and almost impenetrable forests toward the Atlantic Ocean 3,000 miles away. After weeks of danger and privation, we reach a village of friendly natives, from whom we obtain canoes in which to continue our way. Great skill is shown in navigating the many rapids of the rivers tributary to the Amazon, but our spectacular efforts are successful and at last we reach the broad waters of this mighty river, on which the journey is continued until civilization is reached at Manaos, Brazil, still a thousand miles inland from the mouth of the river. 995 feet standard length Rental $1.25 1122 Code CEDI Ship Ahoy! Fox Varieties A series of beautiful scenes of large sailing vessels under many differing conditions of wind and weather. Some show the setting of sails and others the furling of them in heavy weather. Pictures taken from the deck and also from aloft, show the sailors at their hazardous duties. There are also night scenes. This subject will thrill and delight every spectator who is fond of the sea and its rapidly disappearing sailing ships. 839 feet standard length Rental $1.25 1123 Code CEDO On a South Sea Shore Fox Varieties Tutuila, one of the fair Isles of Samoa, is a land of sun and laughter, inhabited by a lovable and carefree people. We enter Pago Pago Bay, the best harbor in the South Seas, and go ashore to visit some of the natives. These simple people still preserve their old custom of sending their maidens to the shore to call the Surf God, and the pounding waves appear to be a response to their call. We watch the natives pounding Taro-root, gathering cocoanuts and shell-fish, and preparing a formal feast at which later the native chiefs discuss For maximum enjoyment
