Now place the filmin the bowl or pail of water, immersing it ?fully but not folding it tightly so as to crack. III. Cover up the bowl or pail with a piece of brown paperto keep out the light from the lamp. (Iven the colored light ofa dark room lamp will fog the film if it is exposed too long to it.) lY. Prepare 8 ounces of developer and pour into one ofthe i6 EASTMAN KODAK COMPANY. V. Now pass the film through the developer in the samemanner as described for wetting it and shown in cut. Keep itconstantly in motion and inabout one minute the high lightswill begin to darken and youwill readily be able to distin-guish the unexposed sectionsbetween the negatives.
