There's one picture at the Nickel theatre

step in the process OF making a modern

essary in making n newspaper. This pic
ture is quite a long picture but Il held the
undivided attention OF everyone. But there
were other good pictures, too. The Col

film, and THE Burglar and a Baby" is
q pretty dramatic film showing how n lit
