LINDSAY STAYS WET; DRAYTON DRYS VICTORS Beverage rooms will remain open in Lindsay, but will be closed in Drayton as a result of two plebiscites held on July 16th, In a third vote Schreiber decided to remain dry. Lindsay wets scored a decisive viec- tory, but in Drayton drys polled 16 votes more than the two-thirds™ re- quired to close -the beverage rooms. Beverage rooms will continue in the Town of Lindsay, the citizens decided in a vote on the question. At the close of nine hours of voting, 1659 people had indicated they wished the parlors to remain, while 1609 voted "nay". The vote was first scheduled for June 28, 1936, following signing of a petition:by soine 1700 citizens. It was held. up by a court injunction, when charges of irregularities in the peti- tion, and regarding interpretation of "the Liquor Control Act, were made. A second petition was taken last fall, but action was delayed pending special legislation to be brought down by the Ontario Government. There are five beverage rooms in Lindsay, jneluding the club room of the Corian Legion, - One room was closed by the Liquor Control Board . two weeks ago pending appointment of a new manager. 'Temperance forces headed by most of the ministers in the town, led the fight against the beverage rooms. The Moderation League favored their con- tinuance. 'Barbury, A La) .

He many times have you heard the expression "Don't te take a pic- ture with your camera facing the sun"? It's 'one of the old beliefs in - amateur. photography 'that has been handed down from year to.year to every new snapshooter. 'While this is good advice for the beginner it is not necessary to for- ever abide by this rule, Those of us who like to'try breaking such rules 'have found that mast of the work of which we are proud has heen pro- duced under other lightings. The im- "portant thing to remember is that you must never stand so that. sun- light will strike into the lens. The lighting of the subject has much to do with gecuring that qual- ity sometimes called "atmosphere" in a picture, There are a number of ways in which a photograph may be given apparent depth or "third di- mension." Taking the picture when there are long shadows, getting a reflection in the foreground, using strong sidelighting or backlighting, and timing the exposure just right 'go that the detail of objects in shadow is not blocked out, are pre- cautions that contribute to the de- sired effect. Let us consider each of these separately. Shadows, thrown in long drawn- out splotches "across walls and walks, more than anything else make one feel that he is "looking into" a picture instead of "looking on" a flat piece of paper carrying 'the images of the objects recorded. OT CUILDy. BA DIMENSION + Above -- Heavy shadows contribute much to third di- mension quality. Left -- Contrast in tones and unusual top lighting contrib- ute to the rare ster- oscopic effect. + The foreground should be well broken up with shadows so that there is not too much contrast be- tween it and the rest of the picture. When a body of water can be in- cluded as a part of the foreground, then there are wonderful opportuni- ties for adding depth. The reflection will carry one's attention back and away from the foreground--into the picture--and lead to the principal point of coniposition. Reflections often serve as an avenue, to lead back from the foreground 'of a set- ting. The only precaution necessary when dealing with a water fore- ground in strong sunlight is to watch | that a swell or wave does not throw reflected light sparkles upon the lens, as that may fog the picture. Side-lighting, where the source of fllumination comes from the side of the object. or scene, and back-light- ing, where the light comes from the rear, are not difficult to handle if the. lens {is protected from the light coming toward it, Shade the lens with the hand, or stand in the pro: tecting shadow of a tree to make the exposure, Also, you should time the exposure more for the parts in shadow than for those that are high- lighted. 5 Don't be discouraged if you fail to gét the desired appearance of ¢apth or "third dimension" In your first attenfpt. If at first you don't succeed watch for your contrasts and shad- ows and try, try again.
