PLAINDEALER When this family visited St. Anne de Beaupre, father snapped this pictare. The silhouetted back view of the mother and children looking at the famous shrine adds interest to the picture and personalizes H as well. There's a Time When a Back View Is Best ^ l^ES, there is a time when a back view of the people in your pictyre is the very best. That is the time when they aren't the primary subject of your picture, but are there to add interest or to serve as a means of establishing size or perspective. On vacation trips is one of the times when you'll be taking a number of pictures of this type-- or you will be if you want to bring home really good pictures of the wiews you admired, the places you visited. Several years ago 1 heard a comedian quip that tourists are people who drive thousands of iniles to have their pictures taken beside their cars. I'm afraid he nad a point there, judging from a number of vacation picture series I've seen. Of course, there is nothing wrong with making a snapshot like that if you wish. I'm fully in ^avor of people picturing what they want. But, just don't limit your vacation snapshooting to that kind ©f picture. Scenery is a part of almost every vacation snapshot record. Including members of your party in the pictures gives thefn life, and interest, and make them definitely say that you were there. In other Words, it takes them out of the post, card class, turns them from a general interest picture into one of highly personal importance. However, one of the quickest ways,-to ruin a good scenic picture is to place one or more people in the foreground and have them look into the camera. Ahyone looking at the resulting snapshot will see the person ... and interest in the view will be entirely secondary. However, if you make the people turn their backs on the camera and face the v^ew which caught your fancy, they will be adding emphasis to the scene. Their interest in looking at it will enhance its importance. When you are combining people and scenery in your vacation pictures, decide which is the., more important in each snapshot. Sometimes it will be one, sometimes the other. But do decide, and compose each picture to feature the subject that's more important at the moment. --John Van Guilder Wheal Compliance Bules Axe Changed £» "There is a change from previous practice in the determination off wheat acreages which may somewhat affect the operations of many farmers in this area," John L. Slavin, officer manager for the McHenry County ASC, says. Under previous programs a fraction of an acre, grown in excess of the allotment or the 15 «res permitted, was disregarded determining soil bank eligibility and marketing quota penalty. Excess plantings of less than one acre over the allotment were also ignored in determining compliance for price support purposes. However, beginning with the 1957 program, acreages will be computed in acres and tenths of acres, and for the purposes of "Our Lives Are But Marches to the Grave!' * (Author's name below) The nurnb^T of years you are going to live has been added to by the medical research that is rapidly discovering how- to slow down our "March" to a gehtle stroll. You can live longer and healthier if you wish. Proper diet, plenty of rest and right thinking are all important.

Riverside Dr. McHenry, ID PROSCRIPTION CHEMISTS •Quotation by John Fletcher (1620) the above eligibility determinations^, a farm will be deemed in violation if the measured acreage is onef-tenth acre or more over the* allotment or permitted- acreage, whichever is applicable. Mr. Slavin also called attention to the fact that farmers may dispose of excess acreage by cutting or pasturing the wheat or turning it under sufficiently to prevent maturity.
