THE RITTER DENTAL MFG. CO. SALESMEN REPORT SUCCESS Our salesman takes the Ue Vry into his prospect's store, and as it is all read3' to operate, it takes him but a minute to put the canvas up and in this way he can tell the entii'e selling story of Finck's "DetroitSpecial" Overalls, in an interesting way. The men who have had t'nis machine report unusually good success with it, both in its operation and in the obtaining of orders. W. M. FINCK & COMPANY. CONVINCES THE PROSPECT \A"hen they see our machinery in operation on the screen they are convinced that the machinery does the work automatically and we have found it much easier to do business with them. It also gives the impression that we are wide awakes, and using the latest devices in introducing our goods. THE RAYMOND W. DULL COMPANY. REFER TO PACKARD Should there be anyone that you know who is in doubt of what to think of the De Vry — ask him to write me a letter and I will tell him what we have gone through before we decided. Motion Picture Sept., PACKARD MOTOR CAR COMPANY. WANTS OTHERS TO KNOW As stated above, we can only tell you how this machine appeals to us, and it is possible that we-have gone into this more loquaciously than is necessary, but the writer is and has been for the past eight months, very enthusiastic about this apparatus and thinks that other people should know of the good that it can do. WELLER MANUFACTURING CO. GENUINELY PORTABLE T used your type C-2 machine in presenting Moving Pictures of our Trip from Detroit to Duluth and return, first using it in window work and later in showing our trip before Chambers of Commerce, Rotary Clubs, Real Estate Boards, Associations, etc., through the states of Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, and Pennsylvania, and it proved very satisfactory, giving a good, clear picture and was especially serviceable on account of its portability and universal connection with Electric outlets. NORTHERN NAVIGATION COMPANY. ENTIRELY SATISFIED Would advise that we are entirely satisfied with the service it is giving and are very much pleased with the machine. ILLINOIS STEEL COMPANY. NEVER OUT OF ORDER The De Vry Projector has given entire satisfaction at our Paulist Settlement House. We have never had to return it to the factory for repairs in the year we have owned it. The children, who are good critics of the "movies," consider the pictures clear and satisfactory, so we are satisfied. With sincere good wishes, THE PAULIST SETTLEMENT HOUSE. STANDS UP UNDER STRESS I have used the De Vry Portable Projector in home, shop, theater, auditorium and outside work, and have found it to meet every need. The educational value which this machine has had in our work cannot be overestimated, because it has been one of the chief methods of attracting the general laity. With the De Vry equipment, I have been able to. get in touch with a larger group of people than would have otherwise been possible. The mechanism of the machine is very simple and still very complete. It has stood up under this stress and Strain which, undoubtedly, it could not have done had it not been constructed in the best manner. THE WISCONSIN ANTI-TUBERCULOSIS ASSN. SUCCESSFUL IN SCHOOLS I wish to state that your little portable machine serves a very important place in our school organization. We have four centers equipped for use of motion pictures. At two of these centers we use standard machines, at two others we use machines which require a special film. The use of special films, of course, is not always satisfactory. The De Vry Machine makes it possible to use standard film in a very satisfactory way at the school where we do not have a standard machine. The De Vry machine can play a very important part in the educational program of any school. GARY PUBLIC SCHOOLS. FORD HAS 50 DE VRY'S Please be advised that we have experienced excellent results from the De Vry Projector. Vv'e have fifty of theni in use under varied conditions and have yet to receive a serious complaint in regard to any of them. We have utilized one machine to the extent of projecting 50,000 feet of film through it each week, and under this severe test the machine stands up admirably. We have used the machines just about a year. FORD MOTOR COMPANY. THE GREAT MAYO CLINIC We feel that the De Vry Portable Projector is all you claim for it. MAYO CLINIC.
