/. Do not laugh loud and do not
prolong the laughter, for the char
acters are still talking in the pic
.ure and others cannot hear and do
not care to lose the connection in
The picture.
2. Do rot come to the picture show
o engage in loud conversation and
laughter and Keep others from hear
ing. While you may not be enioy-
ing the picture or may be waiting
for another picture later, keep quiet
and let the others hear and eniov.
3. Do not ask questions of your
partner, or anyone else out loud if
you do not understand something
Whisper, for it disturbs everyone
around you.
4. Do not by all means explain
the picture and express the next
move or conclusions of the charac-
tiers. Let each one have the pleas
ure OF finding it out and coming to
1t for themselves and they will en-
JOY it better If you must, whisper.
5. Do not come to the show with
your dirty clothes on just from
work.
3. Do not wear large or high
hat unless you take it off. 1t will
keep someone from seeing the pic
ture without leaning uncomfortable
to see around your hat.
