The chances are that the majority have been so busy watching the antics of the little rascals that they have completely overlooked the fact that babies have a habit of growing up _and changing right before parents' fond eyes. without their seeing the f change--in' size, disposition, looks Cute things the baby may do today the youngster but for the most part make an effort to snap the baby When h T isn't necessary to check back over vital statistics or do any re search work to know that thousands ~~ -of new babies made their debut into this world during the past few -months. In fact, a lot of babies were may be completely forgotten by him napshot would pre- e baby. gesture for years to come, Of course. you want "many so-called "record" pictures of | he is doing something. Sooner or later he will discover that he has toes to play with. Snap a picture of him when his tiny little o hands have a "strangle hold" on his » ---chubby foot. You will cherish that 'picture in years to come. In a baby's life there is the first time for everything. There's his first smile; the first time he reaches out 'his little arms to be taken from his the first time he pulls himself "up to the side of a chair and then his first step. By all means don't fail _to get a picture of his first excursion : to his "high chair" to join the family > for his first méal at the table. Make it a practice, or better yet, a duty to have your camera loaded at all times and ready for action. At i L ER ® susJeCT. @ LIEN ) Plctures llke this never lose Inter- est. least he prepared tp make one day a week a picture taking day and then watch for that picture making opportunity. A ploture such as the one above is quite simple to make with the aid of three Photoflood bulbs providing you have a camera with an 1.6.3 or faster lens. Place an ordinary floor lamp ahout three feet to the back and to the left of your subject as shown in diagram above. Floor lamp "B"" should be placed as shown in the diagram" about five feet away with both shades tilted upward so as to throw the light directly on-your subject. You should have two Photoflood bulbs in lamp "A" and in lamp "B." : Set the diaphragm at 7.6.3 and shutter speed at 1/25 of a second. Focus the camera properly, turn on your Photoflood bulbs, snap the pic- ture--and there you are. with a slower lens you can make a flashlight picture with the aid of a Photoflash' bulb. With a Photoflash bulb' you will need but the one lamp. Place your camera on a table or some solid object and set it for "time." Within arm's length and at your side, place a floor lamp with the shade removed. Remove the home light bulb and replace with the Pho-' toflash bulb, Now--open the shutter of your camera, switch on the cur- - rent for the Photoflash bulb, which will give a vivid, instantaneous flash of light, Immediately after the flash close the shutter of your camera. You will get a lot of fun out of taking pictures of your baby and in years to come these pictures will prove to be a real treastre chest of memories. Start today.

ALBERT a the Men's Class on Sunday, Mr. 'the League was held last Wednes- day night and was opened by the sing- ing of "Ihe League Hymn". . The editor read the second edition ofthe "Keyhold News" which was fine, A number of contributors had sent mn some excellent articles. 'A debate fol: lowed; sthe subject being "Resolved that the misér does a greater injury to society and to himself, than does the spend-thrift." Miss L. Murphy and Murray Luke defended the nega- tive against our regular debating team Ww. Lyle and A, Harper. The judges | were Mrs. A. Jeffrey, Mr. C. Clark and Mr, A. Bond.

Croskery, Agricultural Represent- ative of Ontario County, on Thursday ot last week 'at Oshawa. Mr. Frank Mason presided, and the banquet was attended by representatives of all pub- lic organizations and groups in the County. Dr, Christie, of the O. A. C. said that the gathering indeed was an outstanding event not only in Ontario County but also in the Province. It .| was not possible to read the names of the organizations co-operating in the arrangements and not realize that the affair was unique. In fact he did not know where it could be duplicated. The outstanding feature of Mr. Croskery's work in Ontario County has been the inspiration he gave to the junior farmers to undertake prac- tical plans for the eradication of -pests and che development of a better class of farm products. His manner has been most kindly, and he was ever impressed with the value of encour- aging the young people to take the lead in farm bettérment, rather than displaying his own knowledge and authority,| Mr. Innes, who succeeds Mr, Cros- kery, enters upon a well cultivated field where enthusiastic and: capable people are eager to be of service, He will need to be 'on his toes' 'if he is to keep Ontario County progress- ing in_agricultural development. He has good backing, and. we wish him success. In saying "good bye" to Mr. Cros- kery we wish to thank him for his kindly and intelligent interest; and hope that he will long enjoy good health, a clear mind, and the kind of success that crowned his efforts in Ontario County.

L. Bailey as was also the equally fine and very necessary "gong". Mr, Jack Smith made a splendid Major Bowes, having had some experience: along this line when he was invited to preside over Ennis- killen's first amateur night a few weeks ago. The studio of BLAK looked very smart with its shaded floor lamps and lovely plants and flowers.

During the evening he handed to the Major a telegram which stated that the program was going into Francis Werry's large poultry house at Enniskillen with such splendid reception: that the laying production was greatly augmented, ene bird having laid the second time. From time to time all the various activities of Blackstock were given, their due amount of advertising, very amusing, and for which the Major mildly hinted at a charge of one- dollar by-the firms interested but which was as mildly forgotten. The various items on the program were as follows: 3 duet by Madeline and Gil- bert Marlow, of Nestleton, each play- ing a mouth organ and guitar; a solo "The Lost Chord" by Arthur Staples, of Cadmus; a piano accordion selection (Military Mme) by Leah "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling" by Pauline Ferguson, Blackstock, a piano solo, "Let Me Call You Sweetheart" and a mouth organ solo "I Love You Truly" by Louis Watson of Caesarea; a solo by Anna Thomson, "When tion on the bones and mouth organ by Joe Lucas of Scugog; tap dance by solo "The Lilac Tree" and a recitation "Leap Year" by Jean Marlow of Nestleton; an exhibition by thfee Boy Scouts, Ray Graham, Harold Craw- nouncer was kept busy but was equal} which, if not altogether accurate, was|. a very worried look crossed the face of the Major, and only disappeared when he noticed the missing part of his gong protruding from the pocket of one of the mémbers of the quartet. Birdie - Gibson of Cadmus «played a piano solo, a waltz by Choppin; Har- vey Thompson and Jack Marlow play- 'ed "The Golden Slipper" and' "Twenty- One Years" on the accordion, guitar and . mouth organ.

Mr. Parker gave a short talk which was listened to with inter est. The first number after inter- mission was certainly an amateur number, it being a solo "The Wreck of the No. 9", by Stanley Williams who performed for the first time in public and who said he was afraid the song might be a wreck, but except that he had a bad case of stage fright he got along just fine.
