May, 1923 217 DeVry Around ^ World THERE is something romantic in the thought that, with the eflRcient little DeVry, motion pictures have girdled the world. Down in the heart of Africa, mid teeming jungles, the DeVry has projected pictures under conditions almost unsurmountable. In the far north, where the mercury dropped 10-20-30 degrees below zero, the DeVry projected pictures before frightened Eskimos, who saw with amazement, towering skyscrapers, speeding trains and streets crowded with people. Under the warm skies of Japan, DeVrys are teaching religious lessons in Buddhist temples, while the Mexican Government is using DeVrys to educate the masses of the people who cannot even read or write. Romantic and interesting as these facts are, their significance is even more important — they have a real bearing upon the projector you buy. If a DeVry can stand the dampteeming mists of the jungle — the arid heat of Mexico — the sub-zero cold of the far North — if it can be operated successfully day in and day out — 4,000 miles from supplies and repairs, it stands to reason that a DeVry will serve you satisfactorily. For beauty of pictures — for ruggedness of service— for genuine satisfaction — purchase a DeVry. The DeVry Corporation 1248 Marianna Street CHICAGO, ILL.
