C. Francis Jenkins

L. C. Porter

With the death of C. Francis Jenkins, June 6, 1934, our Society lost not only its founder, but also one of the inventors of the motion picture projector, around which the entire industry has been built up. Those of us who had the privilege of knowing Mr. Jenkins intimately knew him as a man of great imagination and boundless energy, evidenced by something over four hundred patents in his own name, both here and abroad.
