Well, no---dont tell anybody, but it was snapped at 1/25 second, approximately box-camera shutter speed. The athlete simply held still for a moment. Any athlete, proud of his muscles ; and uniform, should be glad to "hold it" a moment for you. And small boys on neighborhood baseball di*> monds cheer when they see a camera coming. They'll hold any poi|- r you want them to. The low viewpoint Is best for ;• tlon pictures, with the camera tilted slightly upward so that the sky forms the picture background.

Miss Taylor stated, however, that employers may obtain copies of reguj lations, rules and certain report forms I not requiring addressographed account numbers, from the local office of the Illinois State Employment Pure Black Impossible Pure black is practically an topossibility and all the blacks most of us have ever seen are mixtures with some visible color. It is impossible to see black, asserts a writer in Pearson's London Weekly. This is because pure black absorbs absolutely all the light rays that fall upon it, and reflects none to the eye. Since vision depends upon reflected rays o^ light, there would be none in the case of pure black. If an object were pure black, we would see the outline of it because of the lighter shades around it, but the black itself would not be visible. has been Uncle Sam's best tax collector. * "Now our State wants to add a stamp for State taxes.
