MOVIES WITHOUT REGRET Must your pleasure from your fine black and white and color "shots'* be spoiled by your regret at seeing them ravaged by time and climate, blemished by fingermarks, moisture, oil and dirt, scratched and worn in projection ? No ! There is a vapor which can replace those few precious drops of so easily evaporated water which keep your film pliable— a vapor which can't itself dry out. There is another vapor which toughens gelatin against scratches^— seals in the first vapor -■ seals out damaging moisture— seals out oil and dirt, and stains from fingerprints. There is a third vapor which invisibly lubricates film to ease projection. These three vapors are forced between the coils of your tightly wound film by clever, ingenious machines; the vapors reach all of the film surfaces-^ chemically and permanently safeguarding the gelatin and emulsion. All this is done right on your own reel, without unwinding your film, so there can be no damage. It is safe, sure "the vapors do not change the density, transparency or appearance of either black and white, or color film. These vapors, applied in these machines, are the universally accepted protection used by R. K. O., Twentieth-Century Fox, Columbia, United Artists and other leading theatrical and nontheatrical producers for over 500 million feet of entertainment, educational, and industrial films annually. The special machinery assures safe, uniform, 24 hour service at VAPORATE CO. 130 W, 46th St. New York, and at BELL & HOWELL, 1801 Larchmont Ave., Chicago : and 716 North La Brea Ave., Hollywood, Cal. Large volume and labor-saving machinery make possible the fraction-of-a-cent-afoot cost of VapOratc film protection. ^ our best pictures cannot be replaced, so they must be protected. Today you have them; tomorrow they may be gone beyond recall. Take your films to your dealer now-— VapOrate them and assure yourself that you will have them when you want them most.

Crusader tO fair Following a precedent which proved extremely popular on the occasion of the photographic exposition last year, the firm of Klein & Goodman, 18 South 10th Street, Philadelphia, Pa., has decided to charter a special train to bring still and movie fans to the New York World's Fair. According to Ben Klein, head of the firm and master of ceremonies, the special B. & 0. train, The Crusader, will leave Philadelphia at ten minutes to eight on the morning of May 28. Arriving in New York about nine thirty, the filmers will board special buses which will take them directly to the fair gates. The party will converge at the Eastman Kodak Building inside the fair and will then spend the day absorbing and recording the sights. Late in the evening, the party will again board the buses which will connect with the home going train, a good time having been had by all.
