The "maglec chalr' will prove to be a popular at- traction. HER SoME people just naturally frown on the idea of doing anything un- usual or different, but he that as it may, here's a suggestion for a new kind of party. A "Snapshots at Night Party" and the chances are it will be voted by those who are fortunate enough to be invited as an outstand- ing success. To further add to the merriment of the party you might have your guests come in costume. Tell them to come dressed as their favorite movie star, some famous person of history, a character from one of the "nursery rhymes, or, you might sim- "plify the matter of costumes and make it a regular "Kid Party," all guests dressing as children. Setting the stage for your Snap- shots at Night Party is very simple and can be done before your guests arrive. . Here is what you do. Place a chair in an out-of-the-way part of the room so that it will not .be dis- turbed by the guests as they arrive. Close to the back and to the right of the chair place a floor lamp so that "the light bulb is about two feet from the back of the chair. Now tilt the shade slightly upward so that it will throw the light directly over. and down on the shoulders and head of the person sitting in the chair. About three feet directly in front of the chair place another floor lamp with its shade tilted to throw the light directly on the front of your subject and chair. You now have one floor lamp back of and to the - right of the chair and another one three feet in front of the chair or subject. =) ph With the lamps in this position you will have to take the picture from the side; so place your camera on a table or some firm support at a point where you can see all of your subject in the finder. If you have a folding camera with an 1.6.3 lens open it to this aperture and set the shutter speed at 1/25 of a second. With supersensitive panchromatic film in your camera and two Photo- flood bulbs in the lamp facing the subject and one in the lamp back of the chair you are ready for the ar- . rival of your guests and fascinating indoor snapshots at night. In placing your camera be sure that neither of the lights shines di rectly into the lens of the camera or shows in your finder. After your guests have arrived lead them one by one to the "magic chair," switch on the Photoflood lamps, and--snap--you have the pic ture. And 'you can count on muc} merriment as each faces the camera - Suppose you do not have a4 camers with a lens as fast as 7.6.3. You capo have your party and take picture: with any camera just the same, You can take a short time exposure with out any change in your set-up. "In taking either a snapshot a: night at 1/26 of a second or a time exposure picture, caution your gues: not to move when the picture i: actually being taken. You and your guests will have fun at a Snapshots at Night party and in.turn you will have some highly interesting pictures to enjoy look: ing at for many years to come. 69 JOHN VAN GUILDER. CALL HOME "on those Sundays away-from Home! Jim Howard looks forward to the week-ends. He likes to spend them at home in the bosom of his family. So, "when a prolonged business trip found him at loose ends in a strange town that sunny Sunday morning, his cup of sorrow and discontent was overflowing -- until he suddenly thought of Long Distance and the new Low Sunday Rates. "It will be almost as. good as being with them" thought Jim as he briskly stepped \ to the telephone. @®0n both "Anyone" and "Porson: Person", calls, Low Night Rates apply after 7 p.m, and ALL DAY SUNDAY, Narrow Escape from Death | Frank Whitfield, Port Party; had a narrow escape from death about five a.m. on November 7th, when he made a mistake in the turn in a road and his car plunged into the harbor at Beaver- ton. In some way he managed to get on the top of the car just allowing his head to be above water. Aftey calling for 'help for half an hour provincial and local constables succeeded in 'get- ting him to shore. Whitfield is ap- parently none the worse after his early morning plunge. Mr. Whitfield was to meet some friends who were coming to Beaverton by train, but as that train had been cut off and did not arrive, Whitfield turned around and left the station, On making the turn he got on the wrong road which led him to the lake, where he was not acquainted and unfortun- ately drove off the wharf. go 'County Council COUNTY OF ONTARIO A meeting of the County Council of the Corporation of the County of Ontario will be held pursuant to ad- journment in the Council Chamber in the Court House in the Town of Whitby, on Monday, the 16th day of November, 1936, at the hour of two | o'clock in the afternoon.
