LOADING THE CAMERA

The Cadet Camera requires no special
precautions for loading except that direct
it should always be avoided when
placing film in the camera or removing it
after exposure. If it is not convenient to load
the camera in the house, step under the shade
of @ veranda or of a tree, of turn so as to
shade the operation with your own body.
First, open the back by lifting the catch on
top near the handle. Now, holding the cam-
era as shown in Illustration Two, remove the
cone by pulling out the winding knob so that
it disengages from the slot in the end of film
spool inside. As you take out the cone, note
its position, so that when it is returned to the
camera with a new film, the winding knob
will engage with the slot of the empty spool.
