Using a plus slide, dip the slide into the water bath then add a small drop of Elmer's glue at one end and spread the glue with your finger along the length of the slide so that there is a thin film of glue. While the glue is still wet, add your sections and they should stay on through staining.

We mount them on positive slides, air dry for about an hour but they still fall off. Any insight on the subject would be greatly appreciated.
