how we iNoiMlif success at last 1o your Screen EXACTLY one week after the terrible disaster at Pueblo INTERNATIONAL flashed on the screens of the country pictures of this great catastrophe for your patrons to gape at. How did we do it? Because, as always, we had a man on the job— and because, as always, the man made good. Taking the pictures was easy — getting them to the laboratory was the hard job. They started east first by aeroplane — but the aeroplane was forced down. Nothing daunted, INTERNATIONAL'S man jumped into a motor-car — only to be stopped by washouts. Stumped for a moment, he commandeered a motor-cycle and then struck a real stump, and — wecked the machine. . What then? A packhorse — and success at last. We don't say that this is a world's record in showing pictures of a great catastrophe. We simply give you the story to show you the lengths to which INTERNATIONAL goes in putting its news on your screen. We think that vou'll agree with us that a NEWS SERVICE that regularly triumphs over every difficulty and turns UD smiling at the end is the best one to serve you and your expectant patrons. Sign that INTERNATIONAL contract today. mum iielessed thru UNIVERSAL [June 25, 1921]
