CAIRNS & MORRISON LlMfTED 33 PERCY ST., LONDON, W.I titles, but in practice we have found tliat titles made with the ordinary stock are fully satisfactory. There is a tremendous difference in speed between the two kinds of film, the H. & D. speed of positive film varying between 30 and 60. The H, & D. figures for Kodak panchromatic are 750 and Selo about 300, so you see that a very different exposure must be given. C. E. H. (Darlington) writes : " (1) Can you tell me how to make film cement Jor saJety film ? (2) Does any other firm sell negative 16-mm. cine film without right to development and print besides Selo ? " Ansicers. — (1) Film cement for .safety film is best purchased ready-made from such firms as Kodak, Ensign, etc. However, if you care to make it yourself the best way is to take some old film, scrape off the gelatine surface (you can do this best by wetting the film first) and when it is quite clean and dry cut it up into small pieces and dissolve it in acetone or amyl acetate. The solution should not be made too treacly. A consistency of thin cream is about right. (2) Negative 16-mm. film without right to free development and print is obtained from Messrs. Gevaert, Ltd., of 11,5, Walmer Road, W.IO. We have tested this film and have found it quite satisfactory, (See this month's test reports.) J. D. L. (Devon) writes : " In your article on " Home Talkies " in your new magazine, it is mentioned at the end that apparatus is also available for 9.5-mm. machines — running the professional 16 inch discs. Could you please give me the address of any firms from which this apparatus is available ? " Answer. — At the present time the only home talkie machines available in this country for use with 9.5-mm. projectors are those utilising the ordinary record speed of 7S or 80 revolutions per minute. In the United States, however, the Pathe Company have marketed for some time 9.5-mm. talkie apparatus and films (also available for hire) using the standard 16 inch discs.
