The Educational screen (c1922-c1956])

January, 1936 Project Pictures from the With the Quickly Set'Up, Adjustable DA-LITE PROJECTOR STAND! The projector should be placed higher than the heads of the students . . . not down on a desk or table, (where those seated in direct line with the screen can interfere with the showing of the picture.) With the Da-Lite Projector Stand you can always project pictures from the right height; and you can place the students in the best position for seeing the picture . . . that is in direct line with the screen. The Da-Lite Projector Stand is easily and quickly set up. It has a tilting platform with worm gear control for silent projectors, or can be furnished with a non-tilting base for sound and slide projectors. Both are inter-changeable. For complete freedom from delays, visual education classes need the Da-Lite Challenger Screen as well as the projector stand. The Challenger has a tripod attached to the case and can be set up any- where. Ask your dealer about these Da-Lite accessories or write us for full details!

Da-Lite Screens AND MOVIE ACCESSORIES Among the Magazines and Books (Concluded from page 15) viewed in the May 1935 issue of The Educational Screen. These small books are illustrated with "three-dimen- sional" pictures of habitat groups of mammals ex- hibited in Field Museum. The pictures are printed by the "Orthovis" process which makes the illustrations stand out from the page and appear to be in three dimensions like the groups they depict, when they are viewed through the "ortho-scope," an optical device which accompanies each copy. The page borders con- tain sketches of the footprints of various animals, and silhouette drawings showing them in characteristic ac- tions. The text of the books is by H. B. Harte of the Field Museum staff, and has been prepared in a style suitable for children from about eight to fourteen years of age. The publishers report that these books are being widely taken up as supplementary reading in schools, and in a number of states have been placed on the official lists of such material recommended to prin- cipals and teachers. In order to assist teachers in making the best use of them, two manuals for teachers, illustrating various ways in which the books can be adapted to schoolroom use, have been issued.
