              what is equally important in a small camera,
               a sufficientlength of focus to avoid distortion.

I'VERY   negative that is worth mak-
 -E.  ing is worth a date and title.  The
placesyou visit-interesting  dates and
facts about the children, their age at the
time the pictures were made-the  auto'
graphs of friends you photograph-
thesenotationsadd to the value of every
picture you make. Architects, engineers
and contractorswho make photographic
records of progressive work, can add
greatly to their value by adding notes
and dates permanently on the negatittes
by means of the Autographic Kodak.
The amateur photographer who wants
to improve the quality of his work can
make notations on his negatives,of the
light conditions, stop and exposure.
  Just release a rtop and a little dooropens  in the back
of  the Kodak    ; write whatever  notation you want, on
the red paper of the Autographic   Film  Cartridge  with
a pencil  or  stylus  ; expose from 2 to 5 seconds;  close
the door and you are ready for the next exposure.  On
the margins  betw€en the negatives will  appear a per-
manent photographic  reproduction  of the notation you
made.     It    ii  not a part  of the Autographic   plan  to
have this writing  appear in the print  itself, but simply
rhat   it be kept  as a record,of  date and  title  on  the
negative.     It  is obvious, however, that  it  is no trouble
to include   it on the print when desired,

lnches wide and  8/a  incb.es higt..     It may be conven-

this camera, anct they are fine.    It has a genudne lenc (not
a pin hole, as do many cheap cameras), and pictures are
taken by the snap-shot or time exposuret as desired.    It
uses glass plates, which  give the best results, and  pro-
duces a larger and  better  picture  than  any  low-priced
c&mera now on the morket.     It  is very simple and easy
to  operate-any     chiltl  who  will   follow  the  directions
given can use it successfully, taking  first-class pictures of
