The Truth About Color Slidei F' YOU haven't tried making color transparencies, you really should. Otherwise, you're going to find yourself way behind the times in your picture taking. Becsiuse that's the kind of snapshooting that's growing in popularity by leaps and bounds. And their pop- Hilarity is well deserved. • They are such wonderfully aatis- ' ffcctory pictures. Seeing a favorite person, a familiar scene appear in 'full color on your screen, is really thrilling. . Because color transparencies are SO beautiful, many people have the idea that they are difficult to make and very expensive. These people are so very wrong oh both scores. There was a time when the miniature cameras with which color transparencies are made were expensive-- but not any more. You can get a good one in the $30-$35 price range--and that certainly isn't a high price for a good camera. At first thought you'may think the film is expensive, but remember, the price includes processing, and you receive the slides all ready to view. Actually, when you use 36-exposure film, your slides will be costing you only 15 cents apiece; < If the idea of having to take 36 pictures before you can see them doesn't fit into your way of thinking, you can get a 20-exposure roll for the 35mm cameras. And, if you're the kind of snapshooter who likes to take a whole roll of pictures in an afternoon so you can mail it for processing right away, you'll be interested in the miniature cameras which use 828 film. In this size you get 8 color transparencies per roll. An important thing to remember in making color shots is that for best results you need to be more accurate in your exposure than you do for black-and-white. But you won't find determining the exposure a problem, because there are so many things to help you do it. Some of the inexpensive miniatures have the basic exposures marked right on the camera in red. The charts that are packed with your film tell you which exposures to use for various types of weather. And, if you want always to have exposure data at your fingertips, you can buy a 25-cent pocket-size guide. These are ingenious little cardboard gadgets that enable you to dial the correct exposure. --John Van Guilder ADVERTISE IN THE PLAINDEALER Don't Risk Tire Trouble!

Prop*. Reports of 162,077 accidents were received by the Division of Highways last year, in compliance with the Illinois Traffic Act. Compared with the 166,163 accidents so reported in 1952, this- is a decline of 2 per cent. Despite the receipt of fewer reports, the traffic accident count has been running slightly higher in 1953 than in 1952. This apparent contradiction has an interesting explanation. Suppose a. driver is waiting for a traffic signal to change from red to green and a boy on a bi cycle rides into his car and is injured. The driver takes care of the boy and files an accident report to indicate that he is cov eied by insurance. This counts as a report received but does not count as an accident since there must be a motor vehicle in motion for an event to be called a traffic accident. This report ia not required by law. A great many drivers report accidents in which there were no injuries and no vehicle repairs amounting- to as much as $100. Apparently they do this to show that they were covered by insurance and to forestall any later involvement. There are instances when persons in the cars seem not to be hurt at the time of the accident but present claims for injuries at a later date. So long as the injuries are not reported to the Division of Highways this will count as a report but not as an accident. The statistics of Illinois traffic accidents exclude reports which tell of circumstances that are not traffic accidents and also all reports of traffic accidents resulting in only minor property damage. The fact that there could be more accidents with fewer reports In 1953 indicates that the public more accurately reported accidents as required by law. The statute requires that motor vehicle accidents shall be reported by drivers or owners of vehicles Involved in any way if; the accident results ih: 1. Death of any person" 2. Injury to any person v 3. Property damage in eXceafc of $100 to any person Some drivers fail to report serious accidents especially if only their own car was involved. These should be reported as they help in making analyses for the purpose of reducing the muntoet of accidents. Whenever information is received concerning serious accidents which have iiot been reported, drivers are requested to submit the NjMttU iequired by law. , » S26 Main Street Phone 294 or" $9&J West MefTenrj Save Time Peeling Onions "A good cook knows Her onions." But when she has a lot of them to peel she often wtshe* someone else would do it. Students in the home economics cafeteria at the Uhiversity of Illinois felt much the same way until one of them developed a simplified method of doing the job. With the new method it takes only about ten minutes for one person to peel five pounds of onions. A wooden ©topping block, a French knife and a paring knife are used for the commercial operation, says Jean Vevtovec, production manager of the cafeteria. With the large knife, cut off both ends of the onion. Then, placing one cut end on the board, cut the option into' quarters. It then becomes easy to remove the peel from each quarter with the paring knife. As you go shopping this week* end, dont forget that onions are reasonably priced again thla month. USe the big white "Spanish" onions if you , want a mild flavor; the smaller "YelloMr Globes" have a slightly stronger taste. There are a lot of the small-sized onions from 1 to 2 inches in diameter -- en the market. The folks in the' vegetable trade call, them "boilers" because they arc* such a nice size for cooking whole.
