58 CLASS 3 — Popular Science, Useful Arts and Natural History REEL NO. TITLE PkUUUCEK of El Capitan which is three times as large as Gibraltar. Over all is a mantle of snow which makes a Fairyland of this always beautiful country. Opposite El Capitan rise the Three Graces, and going on we see the beautiful Yosemite Falls, the highest in the world. At the Half Dome we stop. Here winter sports are in progress; skating, tobogganing, snowshoeing and a snowball fight. A touch of Alaska is given by a dog-sledge and team of malamutes. Other points which will be recalled by tourists are the Happy Isles, North Dome, Mirror Lake, Royal Arches, Sentinel Rock, Cathedral Spires and finally El Capitan, which we see again just at the close of a perfect day, 782 feet standard length Rental $1,00 3062 Code FAMI The Square-Tails of Drowning River From Field and Stream Series of Sport Pictures A splendid outdoor life picture. Drowning River is one of a network in northern Ontario, that drain into Hudson Bay, Starting out in canoes, we travel for three days thru picturesque rapids and beautiful rivers and over back-breaking portages until we come to our objective, the home of those game fish, the Square-tails. Here is a river full of real fighting fish waiting to be caught. How they can fight! What skill we need to work them up to the landing net! But when the zestful day is done and we return to camp and feast on Square-tails what a real tang there is to living, 981 feet standard length Rental $1.25 Wild Creatures in Captivity Many pictures have been made of the ivild creatures in various Zoological Gardens in this country and abroad. The folloimng views are probably the finest in existence and we are fortunate in having them in the Kodascope Library. Not only have they great educational value but real interest due to the fine specimens shoivn and the excellent photography employed. These five reels may be used in any order. Each is complete in itself. 3063 Code FAMO Wild Creatures in Captivity Independent Canines and Felines Who does not love to see the lions and the wolves and the other wild animals? Nobody? Well, here are a lot of them in a Zoological Park. The animals shown are Wild Dogs, Timber Wolves, Red Foxes, Lions, Tigers, Leopards, Cheetahs, Jaguars, and Alountain Lions. There are several different species of some of them. As our visit occurs during feeding time we have a splendid opportunity to watch the action of the animals w^hile they are anxiously awaiting their food and while they are fiercely enjoying it. We are also fortunate enough to be present during the dangerous operation of clipping the claws of a huge Barbary Lion. It doesn't hurt him, but he doesn't like to have it done, and we are mighty glad those bars are so strong ! 910 feet standard length Rental $1.50 To secure subjects of your own choice
