LOADING THE CAMERA

‘The Shur-Shot Special can be loaded with
film practically anywhere except in direct
sunlight. This should always be avoided
when placing the film in the camera or re-
after exposure. If it is not con-
venient to load the camera in the house,
step under the shade of a tree or 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 key 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 key will
engage with the slot of the empty spool,

One of the outstanding features of this cam-
era is that either full or half-size pictures
may be made with it.
