place of two and a quarter, the speed being only about double that of 

 normal. 



In this way, at this speed of projection, we may assume — as you 

 shall see for yourselves — that Cinematography in natural colours is 

 practically solved. 



Objects projected in Natural Colours. 



Amongst the objects projected in natural colours were the 

 marvellous and picturesquely coloured moth Urania, and butterflies 

 of tlie genera KaUinia, Morpho, and Apatura. The moth and butter- 

 flies themselves were first shown in a strong Ijeam of light, so that 

 the audience could compare the originals with the reproduction. 

 Especially noteworthy was the reproduction of the marvellous iri- 

 descence of the wings of the genus Morpho. In addition a series of 

 flowers, moving on a rotating disc, were projected in their natural 

 colours.
