1. set-background(color="no") That instruction could not be carried out: color must be a colour name such as "navy" or "ivory", or a hex code such as "#1b2a5a"; got 'no'
2. set-text(text="It is not possible to travel faster than light.") Slide 1: text added.
3. Set a slide in the lantern, and let the spectators see it; then write the text underneath. Take out the slide, and write "End-deck" at the bottom of the page. Proceed in the same manner with all the slides you make. That instruction could not be carried out: not a command: 'Set a slide in the lantern, and let the spectators see it; then write the text underneath. Take out the slide, and write "End-deck" at the bottom of the page. Proceed in the same manner with all the slides you make.'
4. This concludes the deck; but do not stop here: continue to make more slides, and write them down as before, each under its own separate text, until you have a sufficient number. Then fasten the slips together, and the resulting pile will be a complete slide lecture on the question: Can men travel faster than light?

5. Setting up a Slide Lecture. That instruction could not be carried out: not a command: 'Setting up a Slide Lecture.'
6. Set-up a slide lecture is to fasten the slides together into a connected series, so that they may be shown in succession, and may make an intelligible story. The best way to do this is to paste them, face downwards, on sheets of plain white paper, in such order that each shall follow plainly and clearly after the other. Leave a small margin at top and bottom; then turn up the corners, and tie the sheets into a neat little book. The leaves must not be too many, or the lecture will become tedious to look at. From ten to twenty slides are quite enough for one exhibition. Slides so put together are called a set-up slide lecture.

15. Lantern Management. That instruction could not be carried out: not a command: 'Lantern Management.'
16. To show slides in a lantern, first see that the instrument is in proper order. Trim the lamp well, and let it burn for a minute or two, to make sure that all is right; then close the door, and turn the handle very slowly, until the picture appears upon the wall. Slides must be set upright in the grooves, so that their tops may be uppermost; and each slide must be pushed fairly home, so as to touch the next. Slides are shown best in a darkened room; but if shown in daylight, they must be shaded from strong sunshine. Let the spectators view them quietly, and at leisure; do not hurry them, nor try to make them cheer. A plain description of each picture is all that is needed from the lecturer; let him remember to mention the title plainly, and to avoid all unnecessary words. Slides must not be kept too long before the spectators; change them speedily, but not too quickly. At the end of the exhibition, put out the light, and remove the slides.
