Movies In the Schools

70 the Editor Of the Evening Public Ledger:
Sir--Your remarks as to movies in
the schools seem to invite some informa-
tion on the matter. The need for
projection apparatus in such pace" war
foreseen some years ago and supplied By
small machines using films OF acetate
of cellulOse instead OF celluioid. These
films are both narrower and shorter
than the regular. They are produced
Of a reducer. The cost is slightly more
per foot but is less per film.
Not only is the film mon -intlam-
mable," but the lamps are of lCSS
power. If left on the film, they cause
Il to shrivel and curl. but it does not
blaze. The width and porforationS be-
ing different prevent the use of the
professional films. The>e small ma
chimes are admitted to be safe to use
without booths or with eighteen year
old licensed operators. On this account
they can be moved from room to room
and used where desired. This makes
them we'll adapted for schools and
small societies like churches and SUNDAY
schools.
The big argument against them i"
that the libraries which supply then
less true every day. Several sources of
supply are available at very reasona-
bic rates. 1t may be true that they
nre not 50 up TO dutr rs the profess
sionaIs. but educative things do not get
old 50 fast that this is an objection. As
the demand grows the supply will BE-
at hand. Since both are made from
the same negative, there is no reason
to prevent
The above is the result Of more than
q year Of use in Sunday school work.
I will gladly give more definite infor-
nation on application. ] have no con =
nection with the trade.
