Educational film guide (1945)

664-664.1 EDUCATIONAL FILM GUIDE 1945 EDITION JERRY PULLS THE STRINGS— Continued ern coffee-packing plant in operation. No brands are mentioned, and the vacuum tins used are simply marked "Coffee" "Does not fit curriculum. Might go in puppet study. Useless for coffee study." Collaborator "Indirect advertising not in least objectionable, unless the whole subject of coffee is not to be studied by children. An excellently produced story picture, embodying two educational objectives: the story of coffee and Its place in modern world (very good), and an exciting introduction to puppet construction and manipulation. Our art classes reacted unusually well. Method of presentation is unique, and particularly adaptable to junior high school students." J. Frederic Andrews ft 664 Foods GREEN GIANT. 40min 16-sd-color-loan 1940 Minn valley canning co 664 jh-sh-adult "This film gives a very complete account of the entire process of canning peas and corn, from the growing and breeding of select seed stock to the planting, harvesting and actual canning of the corn and peas. The use of color adds to the effectiveness of the film. I felt, however, the very thoroughness of the film made it drag in places and the general effectiveness of the movie was thereby reduced." Harold B. Jensen "A rather good color film dealing with each step of growing and canning of peas and corn. Many of these steps are well handled and should especially interest agricultural classes. The film is lengthened by much emphasis on technical improvements which are not adequately explained. Some of the color work is excellent. Continued use of trade names not as detracting as overlong shots of the canned and labelled products." J.

Death of the prosperous industry as a result of disease and insect attacks until in 1926 the growing of sugar cane in Louisiana was almost at an end. Attack of the problem by development of new breeds is then considered and the methods of developing these is carefully shown. "Then comes a general outline of cane growing practices, harvesting methods, and refining of sugar. This is a well photographed and well edited film.
