Abstract
THE use of the lantern in one of its many forms has become more and more general. In our younger days it was a great and exceptional treat to see a magic lantern entertainment, but now there are kinematograph theatres in all our main streets, and lanterns for the teaching of history, geography, and science in our schools, so that the younger generation look upon the lantern as a matter of course, and even the poorest of them go (perhaps too frequently) to the picture palaces.
