What Does 1936 hold in Store for you. Today we stand on the threshold of a brand new year, Not for several years has one appeared so rich as this with promise. a cloud on the horizon and we are stepping out into a future of un- bounded confidence. Business con- ditions are extremely bright on all sides and captains of industry predict that we are on the verge of happy days once more. There was a time, not long since, when there were more jobs than men, and those days are fast approaching once more, What is to be our attitude when they come? We can waste our opportunities when they arrive or we can make the most of them. Let us live the best lives that it is possible to live, and give every flying minute something "to keep in store. Remember: Life is a mirror for king or for slave, Then give to the world the best that you have And the best will come back to you.

Photographically it is an excellent picture and this Guild member i8 to be congratulated on his work, To the Snapshot Guild, however, _ Ahis picture represents much more than an example of guod photogra- phy. It tells a real story. As we visu- alize the story behind this picture it takes us into the homes of thou- sands of typical Canadian family groups gathered at the home of parents for the day or evening. It 1s just such pictures that add interest and value to your snapshot collection and every year, as the children "grow up," you will cherish such snapshots more and more. Record pictures, such as scenes, buildings, monuments and other places of interest you snap in your travels are important and interest- ing, but don't overlook the innumer- able opportunities for intimate, story-telling pictures of the family, With present day film and Photo- flash or Photofiood bulbs you can take indoor pictures with any camera equipped for "time" exposure. The picture above was taken with an or- dinary camera with the aid of a No. 20 Photoflash bulb, ; * Here is what you do. Place-your camera on a'fripod, table or some- thing solid so that there will be no movement of the camera when the picture is taken. Locate your sub- jects, or group in the finder. At arm's length to the side of your camera place an ordinary floor lamp; to get full efficiency from the light, remove the 'shade and hold a white card or a pillow case in back of it to serve as a reflector. If in a group picture of this kind you find that the distance at which the Photoflash will be placed is about 10 feet from the group use stop 7.11 with an anastig- mat lens or No. 1 stop on single lens cameras or box cameras. With double 1énses not of the anastigmat / ee Family gatherings offer unusual opportunities for story-telling pictures. type, use the largest stop. 'With the current in the lamp twmed off re: place the home bulb with the Photo- flash bulb. Set your camera for a time exposure; open the shutter and - instantly "turn on" the Phatoflash bulb which you have placed in the floor lamp. There will be a vivid, in- stantaneous flash of light. Immedi.. ately after this flash close the shutter of your camera and you have your picture. : It you prefer you can take a snap- shot of such_a group, providing you have a camera with an 7.6.3 lens or taster, using Photoflood bulbs, It will be necessary to employ two floor lamps; place one lamp about 5 feet in front and a. little to the right of your subjects; place lamp number two about six feet to the - front and left of the group. Tilt the shades on the lamps so that the light is cast over the entire group. Place two Photoflood bulbs in the lamp to the left and one or two in the one to the right. Be sure to use super-sensitive panchromatic film tor best results for snapshots with this kind of a set-up. With film slower than super-sensitive short time exposures can be made with Photofiood bulbs. Set the diaphragm at 7.6.3 and the shutter speed at 1/26 of a second; turn on your Photoflood lamps and-- ~ snap--you have made a snapshot at night indoors. ; : When shades on home lamps can- not be tilted or are of a kind that does not permit directing the light on the subject, remove the shade. In such casés, some kind of reflector back of the lights' will throw con- siderably more light forward. . Don't forget these important pic- tures around the home. Get some' Photoflash or Photoflood bulbs (they can be purchased 'in almost any store where they sell photographic supplies), load your camera With giiper-sensitive panchromatic film 'and take a few snapshots at night - indoors. It's a lot of fun.
