48 REELandSLIDE PERFECTED PROJECTION THE simplicity, and attention to detail, which mark the construction of the DeVry Portable Projector throughout each and every part, are features which commend the DeVry for use in any class of service. The projector is entirely self contained; there are no parts to be lost or left behind. All working parts are made of cold rolled steel — the metal at once the ligfitest in weight and the greatest in tensile strength. The wonderfully efficient motor with which the DeVry is equipped is of the universal type, operating on either alternating or direct current, so that it is only necessary to attach the projector to an ordinary light socket and touch a button. The projector practically runs itself. It is the combination of these features — the easy portability, simplicity of construction — which has made the DeVry the choice of the Y. M. C. A. and the Red Cross as the projector best suited to meet the varied needs and purposes of the war work in which these splendid institutions are engaged. The DeVry serves not only in helping to entertain the boys in the rest billets back of the lines and to cheer the convalescent men in the hospitals, but also in the instructions given the recruits in soldiering. More than 300 DeVry Projectors are "enlisted" in war work. The DeVry Corporation 117 North Wells Street Chicago, Illinois DE
