Of these, the traveling motion picture show seems to have been longest in the field. Many state health departments and state tuberculosis associations have been and still are conducting a part of their educational work by this means. Recently the Red Cross has carried the story of its overseas work into remote rural districts in a certain section of the country by means of a truck equipped with pictures and machine. A returned overseas worker travels with the truck and gives talks about past achievements and future plans. An organization interested in promoting the use of commercial and industrial films has a number of well equipped trucks which are sent to city parks as well as country districts to give open-air entertainments. A TYPICAL MOTION PICTURE MOTOR TOUR The North Carolina State Board of Health has used a health car equipped with electric lighting plant, motion picture machine and accessories, together with a large selection of health and comic films, all in charge of a lecturer and machinist. This car was sent out in response to invitations to give health entertainments in co-operation with local committees, the latter sharing the expense. The plan was to give substantially the same program in a different place in the county each day during one week. Each of these places then received a return visit during each of two succeeding weeks with a complete change of program. A single program usually consisted of five or six reels of motion pictures, including three health films and scenic and comedy films. A victrola was carried with the car to provide a preliminary musical program and a musical accompaniment with the comic films. While the health films were being shown, the lecturer made running comments. Free health literature was on display at a convenient place to be given out in response to requests. The programs were given in the school house, church hall or outdoors. Where special illumination was needed strings of incandescent lights were provided. The staff carried with them a complete camping, cooking, and sleeping outfit.[4] Their schedule usually included two programs a day and 12 visits to as many places during a week.
