ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO HOT CARE WHAT PEOPLE THINK* Whenever any one declares that he does not give a hoot for what people think of him, he is merely trying to cover his unsatisfied desire to have people think well of him. One of the strongest human instincts is that desire for approval by others. Nobody can change that very much; and nobody should try. Of course, we cannot please everybody, but we can please those who are our ideals. People who try to bluff that they don't care what anyone thinks of them should read Dale Carnegie's book, "How to Win Friends and In- Suence People." (Public UOin-1WNU fcnlNJ RlNGWOOD Mr. and Mrs. B.

A charming snap--and you might get it with a box camera. But with a faster lens, you could use a higher shutter speed, and b* sure of a sharp picture even if the subject moved. That's just one advantage of a fast lens. E^1V ERYONE, of course, knows that the lens of a fine camera is "faster" than the lens of an Inexpensive model. But the question Sometimes arises: Just how much (aster . . . and what is the main value of this extra speed? Such a question is timely now-- tor we are at the season of shorter days and duller weather, when a fast lens is most desirable . . . and absolutely necessary for ' some Shots! Here, then, are the major advantages of a fast lens. First, It helps Insure clear, fully-exposed snapshots when light is poor--on dull days, cloudy-bright days, in the rain or snow. Second, in conjunction with a fast shutter, it enables you to get sharp, properly-exposed action shots. Third, it enables you to take snapshots at night with less light-- sometimes just by ordinary home lighting. Those advantages simply mean that, when you have a fast lens, you're better equipped to cope with any picture opportunity--whether conditions are good or bad. In winter or summer, day or night, fast lenses "get the picture" ... often in sitoations where slower lenses would mean failure. How fast is a "fast lens"? That can be answered only by compart* sons. For example, an f/7.7 anastig* mat lens is four times as fast as the meniscus lens of an inexpensive box camera. An t/6.3 lens is six times as fast as the box-camera lens; an f/4.5 eleven times as fast, and au f/3.5, eighteen times as fast. And a line f/2 lens, such as on cor* tain de-luxe miniature cameras,'la flfty slx times as speedy as the box camera lens! In practical terms, this means that the f/7.7 lens Vfll get good snapshots on dsys when box-camera snaps would be seriously underexposed. It means that with the f/CS you're equipped for snapshots on dull days; with the f'4.5 or f/3.5, action shots under adverse conditions; with the f/2, almost anything, day or night. Putting it in a nutshell--the faster your lens, the wider your picture range, and the more subjects you can tackle with assurance o: good results. If you're getting gocd pictures now with an inexpensive camera, rest assured that yocr next camera--If equipped with fast tens, --will serve you .even better. * John van Gui\d^p*,v SMy Neighbor v Says: If the compost pile is turned over from time to time during the fall and winter the ground under the pile will freeze and destroy all insects," their eggs and larvae. * • • Never leave fish, unless salted, soaking in water.
