collection of the insects for its biolo gy department to pay the tuition of his eldest son that seemed like a good idea dr wehr said so when my next son was ready for college i sent a similar but more complete collec tion to adelbert college of western reserve university in cleveland my alma mater dr wehr began his collection of butterflies which now numbers more than 10 000 when he was put in charge of a summer camp while btill a medical student among the campers were many high school students who had been instructed by their biology teachers to collect and mount specimens of any insects they could find dr wehr said i became so interested that i decided to start a collection of my own that was in the sum mer of 1900 and 1 m still at it and as interested as ever dr wehr s collection includes specimens from all over the world a butterfly collector must have friends all over the world if his col lection is to be complete he said the philippine section of my col lection was

shutters bave broadened the field ot winter sport photography summer or winter the methods of action photography are much the same and its a to actlv ity regardless of the season but to get pictures ot swift genuine action you must hare a camera with the proper shatter equipment that is a top speed of 1100 sec ond 1800 or faster shutters even faster are made but the action experts prefer to use the lowest speed that the action al lows because then tbey can use a relatively smaller lens opening which gives a deeper tone of sharp focus that insures a sharp picture even when the subject is a bit nearer the camera or a bit farther away this is oue reason why so many fast action shots are taken with the subjects eomlns toward the the motion la less rapid comi to a suheet shooting straight

calls for a fat shutter but when the subjects come dlaa onatly toward the camera the shutter apeed can ba slower than for a broadside view thla diagonal view also yields more pleasing picture in front of the lens and so a slow er shutter speed can be used a degree diagonal view of a mortae subject calls for a shatter speed only half as rapid compared to the same subject in a broadsus view there s another reason too ttui diagonal or quartering view offers a more pleasing effect wjth most subjects the picture above shows a diagonal view the camera was also held low to outline the bub- jects
