New York Commercial Advertiser
Mackenzie Bell, the London littera teur,
whose poetcal works were reviewed in the
Commercial Advertiser some months ago,
sounds a note of warning on the danger
of celluloid. Writing TO the St. James s
Gazette he says You spoke the other
day of the danger OF using celluloid in the
jubilee decorations. but neither you nor the
medical contemporary TO which you re-
ferred emphasized sufficiently the terrible
danger which may arise when using this
material Not only is celluloid most infiam-
mahle, but it is absolutely ineXtingulshable,
as will be seen if a match is brought into
contact with celluloid paper knife. With
a noise like the fizzing of squib it then
burn until totally destroyed. This perilous
substance is said. though I know not on
what authority TO be largely answerabla
for the tragedy of the Partisan bazaar, the
ruins of which some of us have recently
visited. The spectators of the jubilee pro-
eession ougkt not 10 be exposed to the risk
of CONGREGATIONS through the use of cellu-
lOid .
