We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

COMPREHENSIVE LIST OF EDUCATIONAL FILMS WITH DESCRIPTIVE NOTES * These films are in addition to the films used in the film libraries given in Chapter II of this book, and where more than the three reels per week of the One Hundred Twenty Reel Library are desired, these additional films may be ordered from the addresses given. The films are divided into three main groups : Free Films, Rental Films, and Purchase Films. Prices are occasionally given from as authentic sources as we were able to obtain, but they are not guaranteed, as there is little constancy in such matters among exchanges. The classifications used are those of the regular school studies, and the arrangement is alphabetical within each subject. The descriptive notes indicate in a general way the content and character of the film. Films starred (*) are accompanied with synopses and teachers' notes. * Abbreviations occurring most frequently in this list: U. S. Ag Office of Motion Pictures, Extension Service, United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C. Many of these Government films are handled by State Universities and other educational film distribution centers. Bu. Mines Bureau of Mines (U. S.), Pittsburgh, Pa. N. C.
