Films on Leprosy The American Mission to Lepers has regional offices across the country, and those interested in securing any of the following motion pictures should write to 156 Fifth Ave., New York, and ask about the office nearest to them. Tlie Healing of M'Vondo, Happy Village and Lonely Journey are 20-minute color films available for a two-dollar service charge and transportation. The first of the trilogy is especially suitable for children. Chandkuri's Children and Colony Vacations are 10minute color films available at half the above fee plus transportation. Million Dollar Pig and Song After Sorrow are 20-minute black and white films and are free except for transportation. Since the worldwide work of the AML is non-sectarian and non-denominational, every local church has a stake in its work and can easily use these films in telling its people about the fight which modern science and Christianity are making against this worldwide disease. Adventure in Inter-Racial Education Any school or church — and there should be many — looking for an inspiring story of inter-racial education can find it in the kodachrome slide presentation, The Stranger Within Thy Gates. Within the scope of 80 excellent slides and a well-written script is reported the venture of a Congregational minister of Vermont in bringing some of Harlem's children up to spend the summer with his parishioners. The whole story is presented — from the day Ritchie Low presents the idea to his wife to the evening he drove back down the country road after putting the children on the train for New York. J. L. Johnstone did the photography and Virginia Wells the script, available in either printed form or on two 78rpm records. The narration is by Will Greer. William Meeder gives the musical background. It was produced by the Department of Visual Aids of the Congregational-Christian Churches (287 Fourth Ave., N.Y. 10). (Continued on next page) Children of Harlem on a summer vacation — a scene from "The Stranger Within Thy Gates". How Many of Your Class Rooms Would One Set of Pakfolds Darken? The Draper Portable Pakfold can lake if — easy lo transport from room to room where needed. To apply this darkening shade or remove it, simply lift its supporting pulley from the pulley bracket, by use of the Draper Pulley Fork. No screws to remove— no ladder to climb. When the Pakfold hangs over a double roller shade, as illustrated, both shades hanging on the face of casings or wall — a pair of Pakfold Spring Clips will hold the cloth close fitting arouna the double roller assembly, eliminating interference of the two shades and giving excellent darkening. When not in use, the Pakfold is rolled up in a neat roll, with cover fastened by turn-buttons to keep it clean and in good condition, as illustrated. Pakfolds are practical in all sizes. For large windows of unusual width or length Pakfolds are made with two sets of pulleys and cords. LUTHER O. DRAPER Shade Company Dept.
