Tljis force can be one of the most important assets ior Channel ,11 and should fc made the basis for a major part of its programing. Aside from th --'relaxation' and 'escape' benefit? accruing from the transitory en tertainment being predominantly oifered by commercial television jaw, there is little motivatior t.cward self-improvement.

"Television is destined to pro \ de greater knowledge to large. : ambers of people and in so doing • /ill play an importan t role in th : ,a.uring of the public intellect.

The Importance of Composition VETS LIST METHODS FOR DISPOSING OF DEAD ANIMALS Stata law requires that all dead animals be burned, burled or hauled away by a licensed rendering company. Here are some suggestions for safe disposal, given by veterinarians: 1. Bury the animal at least six feet deep. Cover the carcass with a layer of quicklime to speed decomposition. Do not bury animals ;n awampy land near streams or on a hillside. When you can, bury the animal where you find it. 2. Or you can cremate the carcaas. Dig two trenches two feet wWe and 18 inches deep in the form of a cross. Cover with a metal grating or green posts. Heap several layers of dry timber on the gTates and lay the carcass on top. Start the fire with straw soaked in kerosene and add fuel as it is needed. Another successful cremation method is to cover the carcase COMPOSITION is important In every kind of picture taking, because it is the way the subject matter of a picture is arranged. When all of the elements in a picture are arranged in a pleasing fashion, then you have a picture that's pleasant to look at and I'm sure that's what we all want in our snapshooting. A picture that is well composed tells just one story, and tells it so well that a glance will tell you why the picture was taken. This means that you must study the scene carefully in the camera's viewfadsr so that you don't get parts of two or three other stories in it When you take a picture of a little girl playing in the backyard aaadbox, and oa one side you see a neighbor hanging out the family wash and on the other side you have half of a man changing a tire on an automobile -- that's a picture that has parts of several stories and kills the punch of the main story you want to telL It is as though you had taken an article from this newspaper, cut the paragraphs apart, and inserted at random, lines from other unrelated stories. Obviously, it would be a very garbled hodge-podge. And some pictures I've seen are just that! In taking the lime picture, if the photographer moved in closer to the little girl and her playing in the sandbox--chances are good he'd have a pleasing picture that tells its story simply welL In no case is composition more important than in scenic views. Sometimes, if the action is sufficiently meaningful or the person involved very interesting, we can forgive a certain amount of error in composition in some picture types. But in a scenic view, if it isn't well composed you just don t have anything at alL Probably the greatest difficulty in composing a scenic view is being able to separate what we can see with our eyes from what we can see in the camera's viewfinder. A little concentration is the answer. If you really look at the scene through the viewfinder, with your mind as well as your eye, then you will know just what is going to appear on your picture and will take it accordingly. --John Van Guilder THE LOST VIRUS '< T v> by Science Features A lbrrugated paper tar fotf&t more than 30 years after it was lost in a University of Michigan laboratory has yielded what may be an important clue in solving the riddle of the virus. For the virtu, smallest of all known disease organisms, is one of the largest unsolved problems of science. Viruses cause such diseases as infantile paralysis and influenza. The story begins 44 years ago--. in 1909. Dr. Frederick G. Novy, Michigan's famed bacteriologist, Aas conducting experiments with k powerful virus fatal to rats. The ii us, kept constantly supplied with he living tirSue believed necessary or its existence, was studied for Jti years. In 1919 the test tubes containing the virus were lost. Thirty-two years passed. 'then, in 1951, workers cleaning N.e laboratory found a corrugated ;iper box hidden in one corner-^- md inside with the lost test tubes. Meanwhile, scientists had greatly added to their knowledge about viruses through use of the electron microscope and other new devices. They believed that the rat virus so lonjr neglected would be dead. _ Instead, it was deadly. When the test tubes and their brown deposits were ground up and injected into healthy rats, 75 per cent of the experimental animals died within three to eleven days. Dr. Novy, who retired in 1935, came out of retirement to prepare a scientific report on the lost--but still very much alive--virus. As a result of this discovery, scientists are investigating the possibility that other viruses, perhaps those which cause human disease, may be capable of long periods of survival without a living "host" on which to feed.

Disposal of animals that die of anthrax disease must be conducted under the supervision of a veterinarian. Proper disposal of dead animals is a major factor in the control of animal disease in your herds. Keeping your own herds healthy will contribute toward preventing serious animal health problems in your community. ° Seft Telears Soft velours are being used ta many of the new hats.
