She is a patient in the Port Perry Hospital and get- ting along as well as can be expected. During the Christmas holidays our teacher, Miss Laird, met with an ac- cident while tobogganing, which re- sulted in injury to her right arm.

Friends here were sorry to hear of the los¢ Mr. Earl Beadle, of Ashburn, sustained on Thursday morning whén a coal oil stove he had in his barn to heat water for picking fowl exploded and the flames spread so rapidly that his garage and barn were soon a mass of ruins. This is unfortunate for Mr. Beadle as he had only recently bought this property to go more extensively into the chicken business. In attempting to throw the stove outside Mr, Beadle received painful burn to his hands and face. Snow and water were thrown on the adjoining buildings by a bucket brigade and they were saved.

There is an agitation on foot with the Railway Board to cancel the ser- vice on the C.N.R. between Whithy Town and Cresswell. At present the business people of Port Perry and vicinity are offering strong objection to this niove, as it is by this means of transportation they receive their coaol and other commodities. At one time there was considerable busi- ness done here besides the passenger and school traffic, but service event- ually got so poor that the business now goes by C.P.R., truck and bus.

An address "My Favorite '| Author" and a synopgis:of one of his or her books," which was to have been given by Miss Florence Carter, was very interestingly given by Miss F. Elford 'who carried' us in thought through the story of "Fortune's Fool" by Raefal Sabatine, and no doubt Sag those of us who have not already read the book will look forward %o that pleasure in the near future. In the absence of Miss Clara Hardy who was to have given a demonstration on the art of button-hole making, a short but pleasant time was spent in community singing after which Miss Inez Fralick led the way in a contest on "What do you know about Canada" which most assuredly revealed to us how much, or in many cases how little we really know about our own Country. Misses Leona Prentice and Florence Elford proved to us that their knowledge of | Canada was more adequate than the rest of us, they being able to an- swer correctly all' questions but one, ' Mrs. George Samells then favored us with a much appreciated piano selec-: 1 tion, after which all' joined in a geography contest which was won by Miss Helen Carter, with Mrs. George Samells a close second.

Mr. Albert Wilson was elected as trustee for the Manchester school for the next' thred years, Don't think for one min- ute that you cannot use your box camera In the winter, The snow gcene was snapped with a box camera, using the sec- ond stop. In the fire-side scene a time exposure of one second was made, using the largest stop, with the ald of three photofiood lamps. "J HOUSANDS of people of all ages, : are very much interested in the fascinating hobby of picture taking, own box cameras but, believe it or not, have permitted an inferiority complex to creep upon them, as far ag respect for the performance of their cameras is concerned. Now that really sounds ridiculous. It is true, nevertheless, Readers have written to the Snapshot Guild with a tale of woe about waiting for spring to arrive to make a concerted effort to improve their pictures. So many owners of box cameras seem to be of the opinion that the sun must be shining like blazes before they should try to take a picture. What is to follow is directed right straight at you, and you and you . "with. :8 box camera. If it is hibernat- . ing in 'peaceful slumber on the closet shelf awaiting the arrival of spring and. bright sunshine, go get-it, dust it off--and be sure you wipe off the lens carefully with a soft, dry cloth --aget yourself a roll of film and start "shooting. There are more interest. ing winter pictures waiting. to be made with a box camera"than you -will ever be able to take if you live to be as old as Methuselah. Remem- ber, too, that the: old Biblical pas- sage still holds good--*Seek and ye "shall find"--and it will not take much seeking if your eyes are open. Under: ordinary. conditions you can take Instantaneous snapshots _, outdoors in: the winter. or. if the day is too dark and dreary, there £5 always the old reliable time ex- posure: If the day is clear and bright you can take action pictures providing you snap the picture at the right angle and are not too close to the subject. Pictures can be taken indoors at night with a box camera if you use one of the inexpensive photofiash lamps A little experimenting may be necessary until you know what vou can and cennot expect from your box camein. and if you are a real amateur you will get a lot of pleas- ure ont of the experimenting The fellow with a lot of fine equip- ment doesn't deserve half the praise for an unusual picture as the real amateur, who owns a box cam- era and who, through perseverance and thought, gets a "knockout" pic- ture under adverse conditions. Look at the heading of this column this week. If you have belittled your camera by discarding it for the, winter you owe it an apology for forcing it into the army of unem- ployed. The average box camera on sale today has two stops and a time ex- posure adjustment, The stop open- ings control the amount of light passing through the lens. Number one--the larger stop, or opening, is for snapshots of ordinary subjects in sunlight. The second opening, or smaller stop, is for snapshots of distant views, beach scenes, snow without prominent dark objects in the foreground, and clouds, only, in bright sunlight. During the winter, on days with hazy sunlight it is best to use the' first, or large stop. and on dark days use the sec- ond stop and a very short: time ex- posure. } When akin: time exposures the 'camera must be placed on a tripod, table, fence or something solid so that the camera will not move When the picture is taken. 2s You are overlooking a lot of pleas ure if you are not making use of your box camera, so get it out. If you are really interested you can stop in 'most any store that sells cameras and photographic supplies and get free literature on taking pictures at night indoors during these long winter evenings, and you will find it is one type of indoor sport the entire family will enjoy. And speaking of the family--that's a hunch for a mighty important pic- ture. You will have a lot of fun taking a picture of the family group and in later years the result will be numbered among your prize posses sions. Try it JOHN VAN GUILDER.
