Success Secret Double Birthday Celebration Miss Violet Crowley was hostess at a double birthday celebration for Bob and Frank Crowley at her cottage on the river last week. Those attending were Mrs. Agnes Crowley and daughter, Mary, the Tom Smith family, Bill Mclnnes, the Harry Crowleys, the Bob Crowleys, Frank and Chester Crowley and the Rollo Smiths. JWST the other evening I heard pi conversation that is undoubtedly repeated time and again when people are looking at each other's pictures. On this occasion two people had brought slides to show at an informal gathering of a group of old friends who hadn't seen each other lot? a long time. The young lady showed her slides first. The presentation was punctuated by admiring comments on the photographic quality in addition to the exclamations about the subject matter. When she had finished showing her pictures the man remarked th^t he was embarrassed to show hisi slides. "Why, every single one in your collection is goodJ" he exclaimed. "The exposure is right every time and so is the composition. What kind of camera do you use? How do you do it?" Her answer was a simple one. "Oh, it's easy," she said, "I only keep the good ones. The others go in the wastebasket unless the subject has some special personal value. In that case I put them aside for my personal enjoyment But when I show my slides, I only show the good ones." Now there is a big secret of a photographic success. Unfortunately, very few of us have the ability to throw away a picture we've made. We can see how bad it is. We apologize every time we show it--whether it's a color transparency or a snapshot print. But we just can't seem to bring ourselves to part with it. If you have picturei of this kind in your collection-- and it is a rare snapshooter indeed who hasn't--at least take a cue from the young lady and put them aside. Don't inflict them on your friends. There are many mistakes we can't hide, but it is easy to destroy evidence of our photographic failures. --John van Guilder Stationary Bike Offered I received a very nice phone call from Mrs. Bob Crowley last week. You will remember her son, Harry, was a victim of polio not too long ago. She has a stationary bike with foot hold on pedals and strong steel stand.
