Oyster and Shrimp Fishing New Plan of Production and Distribution The new plan of production and distribution of the Ford Educational Library places visual instruction within easy reach of all communities. Suitable subjects are now ready for the schools and will be distributed direct to them. Each school may now have a film library from which the subjects may be selected at the time when needed. The new plan costs less than the present rent and trans- portation of films. Organized Visual Instruction Visual instruction to function in education must be or- ganized in each community. There are many ways to organize to obtain the advantages of the Ford Educa- tional Library. One method that has been successful, where small schools are near together, is to form a Ford Educational Library Association, which purchases all of the Library subjects. This provides at small cost to all schools carefully organized material in modern visual in- struction. It is easy for each school in the Association to raise the necessary funds by giving exhibits or special evening entertainments, charging a small admission. Buying Better Than Renting Each new subject in the Ford Educational Library is five cents per foot, or $50 for each 1,000-foot reel. With each new subject bought, two used reels are sent on a long loan. The cost of the three reels is lower than renting. This plan gives a school or group of schools an Educa- tional Film Library always ready for use. The subject may be shown until its lesson is familiar to the pupil. The new plan eliminates delays of the renting circuit. If each community invests the sum now expended for rent and transportation in volumes of the Ford Educational Library, it will soon have a film collection that will be- come a vital aid in school work. New Subjects Before May, 1922, 20 new subjects will be ready. These will cover many subjects to be edited for public school pupils. Educational experts and teachers who have defi- nite ideas concerning new volumes in the Ford Educa- tional Library are urged to correspond with us, so we may provide material to aid their program in visual in- struction.
