MOVIES FOR THE HOME

POPULARITY OF "AGFA."

"Your own Cinema at home" is the new vogue which, like radio and the gramophone, is now at- taining the widest popularity. Surely there is nothing more de- lightful than to bring back to visible life all the happy moments, interesting experiences and strange sights in foreign countries. Al- inost everyone can take up a new and interesting hobby by joining the army of Ciné amateurs.

How valuable are those living records for anyone who has child- rea, likes to travel, is a lover of sports or is interested in scientific matters. Many who go on furlough to the old country will surprise their friends with sparkling pic tares of native life on the screen... How much joy can be created by sending a spool of film picturing your family to your relatives at home. A thousand possibilities turn up to enrich your spare time with pleasure.

All that has been made possible by the progress of science and the rationalization of the photo indus- try. The manufacture of amateur movie cameras, projectors, etc, has been. cheapened to such an extent that cinema cameras can be had at a price not very much above the ordinary quarterplate-camera.

Furthermore shooting the pic turo" has been made so simple that it is easier to make an attractive movie than a good still picture. There is no bother about the deve lopment of the films, which is done. in Shanghai, London "or other im portant places, where there are special developing stationa: This work is carried out free of charge,

trouble had been taken with it, and it is at its best if it is not, too fussy. A very good way to have an after- noon dress made is to allow the fussiness to be in the material itself. It is in this connection that broderie anglaise comes in so efficaciously. As usual, a connected colour-scheme is chosen-hades of blue, brown, and beige, what not. The brown and beige afternoon toilette can consist of a skirt, tight round the hips and full round the skirts, which might reach to rather above the ankles. The longer skirts are much less worn than is

The roke-line of the blouse is picked out in broderie anglaise." These checks are pick- ed up by means of a brown straw hat, sometimes lined, with the beige, and 'finpping on the side of the face like the wings of a heron, and there should be a button-hole-preferably of an orange Lower.
