rhode island and duncan phyfe in new york but phyfe worked late in the eight eenth century arid into the first three decades of the nineteenth and it is reasonable to suppose that a wealthy city like new york had cabinet makers of ability during the earlier part of the eighteenth cen tury since records show that com paratively little furniture was im ported observes a writer in the new york herald tribune early records of new york dis- close- interesting facts about joshua ueiaplane a cabinet maker wko was born in 1690 and died in 1771 and who made furniture for many of the first families of new york he was one of the earliest cabinet mak ers whose records show that he worked extensively io mahogany in 1734 he made a mahogany dressing table for 2 in 1739 a mahogany tri angle tabic for 3 and in 1737 a mahogany chest for 11 10s table making was apparently his specialty and his records show a wide variety of tables ranging from such simple pieces as an ironing table in 1740 for which he charged 9s to a mahogany dining table made in 1753 which cost 8 10s and was 5 feet 3 inches in length and had eight legs and two drawers goldbeaters skin made from cattles intestine goldbeaters skin is a fine mem brane made of the outer coat of the intestine of cattle and is used by goldbeaters to separate the leaves of metal during the last and most difficult stages of hammering out goldleaf the intestine after be ing put through several processes is cut into pieces about five inches square its tenacity and powers of resistance are so great that it will resist the continuous pounding of a heavy hammer for several months goldbeaters do their work by hand as they did in ancient times notes a writer in the indianapolis news a large number of leaves are beaten at the same time and hammers ranging in weight from seven to twenty pounds are used gold is the most malleable of all metals and the minimum thickness to which it can be beaten with pa tience and skill is not known tor certain a single grain of gold has been beaten into a leaf having an area of 75 square inches and a thick ness of less than 1368000 of an inch commercial gold leal ranges from 1200000 to 1250000 of an inch in

phillips and hinckley forest fires in wisconsin in 1894 was so dense on the great lakes that it interfered seriously with the movement of vessels dur ing the silvertorr fire of 1885 in oregon the air was filled as though with a dense fog and there were eight to ten inches of ashes on the burned areas which covered prob ably 1000000 acres settlers in sil- verton read newspapers at night by the light of this conflagration says the american wildlife institute the year 1910 is historic throughout the west as one of unprecedented forest fires washington and oregon lost millions of acres the wind was so strong that in some cases the fire was actually blown out smoke was sighted 300 miles out at sea and a british ship reported the smell of smoke 500 miles west of san fran cisco and a haze

something that does not exist scientists at new york university found by test that wind does not produce chap ping or redness of the skin but that it merely makes the action of the sun greater by reducing the mois ture oi the skin wind itself does not redden the skin but it helps the tun to do it the ultraviolet rays of the sun cause sunburn and these act more violently on skin that has been

outdoor silhouettes are easy with sun behind subject indoors with artificial light they are just as simple silhouettes offer many chances for interesting decora uve pictures and are easy to take indoors or out outdoors place your subject on high ground with the sun squarely behind him and shoot from a low camera position use a smaller lens opening than usual to provide less- tbannormal exposure and to enh- due shadow detail indoors there are two simple methods for one use a largeelse photo bulb in cardboard reflector place it ou the floor a few feet from one wall and pointed toward the vail this creates a bright spot darken the rest of the room let the subject stand in shadow between the camera and bright spot and shoot another method permits unusual stlhooettee for this stretch white sheet smoothly across an open doorway- leaving no wrinkles place a strong light such as a photo bulb in reflector five feet behind it in the other room pose your subject about two feet in front of the brightly illuminated sheet and ore away with the sheet novel effects are possible for example you can show a person juggling any number of tennis bails or bottles with most of them in midair actually they are just cot out of black paper and pinned to the sheet but in the pic ture they look quite real exposure time for silhouettes va ries with the strength of the light with a box camera and one large photo bulb in cardboard reflector try time exposures of one to three seconds keep the camera on a firm support and be careful not to move it during exposure usually silhouette subjects should be shown in profile the room in which the camera is used must be kept as dark as possible anyone can acquire the knack of silhouettemaking and it ls great fuh out storytelling ideas for this type of snapshot try some and youll find they offer delightful pastime for the long evenings 218 john van guilder cftr time table 84 i 1 passenger and mali mb pan passenger sunday 114 pjtt saturdays
