The film shows first the pitiable condition of the lepers as outcasts, then shows how the leper colony brings them into a happy environment, ministers to their physi- cal need, teaches them a trade and evangelizes them. The picture is excellently filmed, and is realistic without being gruesome or harrow- ing. Some beautiful shots of African scenery. . 'voo^i for general study of mission work '".Africa as well as for specific study of work with the lepers. Suitable for young people and *",?''•? J*"° possibly junior and senior high school boys and girls." Dr Vieth's committee Uses as its subject the work done in a leper colony in South Africa. The photography IS good; the continuity of the picture is ex- cellent; the film dramaticaJly plays the great need of those aflflicted with this disease and effectively shows the work done by a par- ticular church organizattion to alleviate the suffering of the afOlcted people. The picture is a bit gruesome and leaves one with the feel- ing that a work is being done among a most needy people. 1 i T"^^^? film titles are exceptionally well se- lected. It IS obviously a picture developed for the purpose of getting aid, flnanciallv and otherwise, for the work being done in this piissionary enterprise."

(Passing * parade ser.) lOmin 16-sd-apply TFC 616.9 el-jh-sh-c-trade-adult An MGM production available only to schools "Pictures first an advancing shadow cover- ing the map of Europe. From the plague of smallpox, sixty million persons died in one century for there was no remedy but charms and superstitions. "In England, Dr. Jenner is a country doctor. Before a pest house, guarded by sol- diers, Jenner meets a widow whose child is inside. He enters to help, but the child is dead. He walks through the town to the dairy whose workers, strangely, are immune, although sometimes affected by the mild disease of cow- pox. While there, he notes that one of the town boys, whose hand had been cut, had an attack of cowpox. And, Jenner ponders, the boy had probably held the infected hand of his dairymaid sweetheart and thus unknowingly saved himself from smallpox. "Later, in the doctor's home, the widow fears for the health of her remaining child but is assured by the doctor that it is only stomach ache. Jenner determines to give the child cow- pox and to do it by scratching the skin. He therefore takes the disease from the dairy- maid's skin and vaccinates the child. Jenner offers free vaccinations to the townspeople, but is distrusted and his home is stoned. His announcement to the doctors of London is ridiculed, and he returns home. But the plagrue returns and many dead are again carried away. "To test his theory of immunity, he injects smallpox germa into the widow's boy, pre- viously vaccinated, and then keeps the boy under his own roof to note the results. . . On the tenth day the mother tells where her son is. A group of neighbors march in a body to the doctor's home, determined to investigate. But Dr Jenner appears in the doorway, the widow's healthy boy by his side. "The shadow of the plague withdraws from the map. Recommended for general sci- ence classes in the junior and senior high school. Also of value for college courses in public health and health education." Advisory committee "An excellent film, well dramatized and beautifully photographed. [Particularly useful fori public health and general science."
