These four frames depict the creation of a fake ice pond at a movie studio lot. Three of the frames show how the chemicals are being mixed, and the frame at lower right shows the finished product. The product is called "Hypo-Ice", and is a mixture of chemicals that is later spread onto a wire mesh. The actors could then ice skate on this chemically prepared ice rink.
