Secondly, everyone has to be thoroughly interested and full of his job, and, thirdly, they must feel within them the competitive spirit that makes each and everyone concerned keen to beat all opponents in the quality, interest and speed of the ‘‘ News "items. These are the prime factors in the successful manufacture of a ‘* News ”’ film, all of which are to be found in the Pathé Gazette through its employees.
