Text Appearing Before Image: f paper and cardboard has beenplaced in the plate-holder first, the negative plate will bepressed up against the taking screen and perfect contact willbe secured. A little experimenting will determine the proper amount ofbacking to use in the plate-holder. Care must be taken not touse too much, as too great pressure will break the negativeplate or the taking screen. With a little practice the wholeoperation can be performed very quickly and easily. As oneside of a kit is usually beveled in order to make it fit in theplate-holder it may be necessary to bevel the other side with asharp knife in order to make it fit upside down. I have loadedplate-holders in this manner in daylight by using an ordinaryblack loading bag. Great care had to be exercised, however, inorder to be sure to get the film side of the negative plate nextto the film side of the taking screen. Another difficulty that many encounter in manipulating thePaget process is to get the positive plate and the viewing screen 56 Text Appearing After Image: w V t-lo O oH <O O wo Q glued together in perfect register. This can be done veryeasily by the following method: After one has succeeded ingetting the two plates in perfect register by following theprinted directions found in every box of plates, catch the twoplates which form the picture in the center between the thumband fingers of one hand. Have a pointed match stick and anopen bottle of glue handy. With the free hand dip the pointof the match stick into the glue and touch the edges of theplates in a number of places with the glue on all four sides.Now, carefully lay the transparency down on a flat surfaceand allow it to dry. After a half hour or so it may be exam-ined. If the registry is perfect, it can be allowed to dry thor-oughly and bound as a lantern slide. If the registry is notperfect, the glue will still be soft enough so that the plates canstill be moved just enough to throw them into perfect registry.Color work is so much more fascinating than black andwhite that one
