PRESENT-DAY APPARATUS. 1G7 messagers is described as a Maltese-cross motion is constructed by AUbert, and was exhibited at EarlsCourt. MAZOS compact machine with cross-actuated intermittentmotion, capable of serving both for photography andprojection. THE INVICTA Noakes and Normans machine is shown inFig. 184. The filmis actuated by a pin-or claw-motion, andin adjustment onlyrequires to be fedinto the machine,when it is automati-cally seized. There isno sprocket-wheel fordriving the film. Anew machine on adifferent principle isin preparation, butis not sufficiently ad-vanced for publication yig. the THE PRESTWICH MACHINES. Of many patterns placed on the market by thePrestwich Manufacturing Company, space permits thedescription of but a few. Fig. 185 shows Model 3Projector, the film being intermittently actuated by adog-motion. This machine is fitted with automaticfeed and take-up attachments, the spools being capableof accommodating up to 2,000 feet of film.

The simplerforms of camera are providedwith focal-plane shutters, inter-mittent motion being secured byan epicyclic sprocket,such as was shownin Fig. 127.
