An Expedition to the South Pole — in Pictures
"The Bottom of the World," a vivid portrayal of Sir Ernest Shackleton's famous South Pole exploring expedition, which resulted in achievements of great value to the scientific world, has been obtained by the Robertson-Cole Company for release in the near future. Realizing the immense drawing power and the unlimited exploitation and publicity angles of this production, Robertson-Cole includes the acquisition of the Shackleton drama among its startling announcements.
The picture comprises a complete record of the expedition, from the time it left civilization until the arrival back at Valparaiso, after being shut off for nearly two years from the outside world. Not

only is it a most interesting and vivid portrayal of the antarctic expedition, but from an educational and entertaining standpoint it would be difficult to surpass. The film, according to the announcement, contains everything that is desired in a successful dramatic production, with the added value of picturesque, natural scenery such as could be found in no other part of the world.
Replete with thrills, pathos and humor it tells a true story that is stranger than fiction — the story of a mere handful of brave men who fought the unknown perils of the Antarctic, the southermost point of the world, to add to the knowledge of the world of science. The picture tells the story of the suffering and hardships undergone by the members of the expedition as it could be told in no other way. In other words, it is a brilliant portrayal of Shackleton's now famous book of the journey to the land where the sun shines only a few short months a year and where night stays night for months at a time.
Moving Pictures Help "Keeping Fit" Campaign
The Pasadena (Cal.) Health Department found motion pictures a great help in reaching boys 10 to 20 years of age in its recent "Keeping Fit" campaign. Four reels on "How Life Began," one reel on "The Trump Card," and one "The Error of Omission" were shown. All charts, slides and films were censored. This was a part of a national campaign conducted by the United States Public Health Service to reach 3,000,000 boys between the ages of 15 and 20 years, who it is said comprise 50 per cent of the boy population of the United States. In California alone there are said to be 30,000 boys of the "keeping fit" age in schools, 58,000 employed and 19,000 rural boys.
