404 School Department The Educational Screen Perfect Slide Projection— for Class Room or Auditorium The Model BB Balopticon gives the most pleasing dissolving effects, one picture blending with the next — the best way to show slides.

The scene in the market place is well enacted, however, and the dramatic moment loses little of its force. In closing, the reel shows views of Altdorf in the fertile valley, the monastery above the town, and street scenes in the village itself. Here, too, is a monument to Tell. The reel should furnish a valuable piece of concrete background to any study of this classic story. TRAVEL AND SCENIC Yellowstone National Park, 2 reels (De Vry Circulations) — A scenic tour starting at Gardiner and visiting the famous spots of this most popular of our National Parks. Eagle Nest Rock, Mammoth Hotel and its neighboring camp, the swimming pool, the terraces of Mammoth Hot Springs, Jupiter and Angel Terraces, Golden Gate Canyon, fine views of the geysers. Gibbon Falls, the cascades of the Firehole, and the strange bubbling mud of the Mammoth Paint Pots — all are shown in excellent scenes which do full justice to their natural beauty. Giant Geyser is not overlooked — and Old Faithful comes in for its share of attention. A bit less usual are views of the Obsidian Cliff — of black volcanic glass, used by the Indians for arrowheads. The well known bears play a considerable part — and the reels close with a brief cartoon in animation to warn against feeding the pet animals of the Park. Produced by the Northern Pacific Railroad. Leaves from a Ranger's Notebook (DeVry Circulations) — Produced by the Motion Picture Bureau of the Canadian Government, it tells the story of the day-by-day job of the Mounted Patrol in the western Canadian Rockies, recording incidentally much of the scenically beautiful in this region of snow fields and mountain peaks. For intimate acquaintance with precipitous heights, beautiful waterfalls, mountain lakes, and close views of glaciers it can hardly be surpassed. An exceptional film of its kind. Lake Louise (De Vry Circulations) — A collection of interesting views of this famous locality — including of course the beautiful lake itself and the hotel nearby. Tourists are seen in the open tram car designed for sight-seeing, and starting out on a motor trip on a mile-high boulevard.
