24 The Educational Screen INDUSTRIAL Hides—and Go Seek (E F C)—Another of the Hudson's Bay Travel Series, showing trapping methods in the Far North, filmed in the Atha- bascan region of northern Canada. Typical views of a trading post, and "shots" of the Indian fur men bringing in pelts to exchange for supplies—all this hundreds of miles from the outskirts of civilization. Felling Forest Giants (P)—Monarchs of the forests of North Carolina are followed pictori- ally from forest down the river to portable saw- mill. The scene changes to the Northwest, giv- ing the cameraman an opportunity to photo- graph big trees in spectacular fashion from a height of 200 feet. Apples and Other Crops (U S Agric)—The latter including truck garden products; celery, cabbage, carrots, lettuce and beets. Modern Concrete Road Construction (U S Agric)—How this king of building materials is used in the making of a modern highway and the film shows the machinery and processes in- volved. The Story of Asbestos (4 reels) (U S Mines) —A detailed film account of the production and manufacture of this most useful material. Oper- ations are carried on at the Johns-Manville Co. plant. The Story of Sulphur (US Mines)—From the sinking of the well and the pumping of sulphur to the breaking up of 100,000 ton blocks pre- paratory to shipping. MISCELLANEOUS Deliverance (Kleine) 7 reels.—A filming of the life story of Helen Keller, showing her first as a child, then in young womanhood, and last as she is today. An absorbing account of her heroic struggle against overwhelming obstacles, not without its dramatic moments. Athletic Movements Analyzed (2 reels.) (P)— Calculated to appeal especially to those inter- ested in physical training. By use of the ultra- rapid camera, movements- are slowed down to Y° normal speed. Reel I analyzes muscle play common in walking, running, jumping, shot-put- ting and wrestling. The second reel is devoted to more complex movements involved in play- ing baseball, pole-vaulting, hurdling and diving. "Hats Off!" A Story of the Flag (Society for Visual Education)—A primary lesson in loyalty ■ and patriotism. Incidents from history show the inspiration the Stars and Stripes have brought to the hearts of true Americans from 1776 to the present day. Uncle Sam—Insurance Agent (Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Treasury Dep't)—Of particular interest to five million service men and their dependents, showing the opportunity, advantages and provisions of permanent U. S. Government Insurance. Exchanges (Write to your nearest exchange; U. S. BUREAU OF EDUCATION Qualified State Distributing Centers Agricultural College, Miss A. & M. ColUj Agricultural College, N.
