Watch for th®fl^~ n* and let your subject be his natural self. VEMM J. mi ATTORNEY AT LAW Pries Bldg. OFFICE HOUBS - ITS easy enough to get good baby pictures--it you go at it the right way. The secret of the whole matter is to pick your subject when he's in a good mood--and just let him be natural. Give him a toy-- something bright, something that's colorful and maybe new to him, and hell provide the expressions you want. This is one ease where you don't need to worry about small details of the poBe, or about special lighting effects. Good expression -- a genuine, natural effect--is more important. And the best lighting is simple -- a soft, overall lighting, with plenty of illumination in the shadows. Indoors, you get this type of lighting by proper placing of your photo lights. Space them rather well apart -- one toward the subject's left, one over toward the right. If you have a third light, it may often be used to brighten up the background, producing 9kS light, cheerful effect that is so desirable in a baby picture. The third light, if used only for the background, will make no practical difference in' the exposure. Very satisfactory snapshots Of babies and small children can be made with a box camera or a simple folding model. However, if I were choosing a camera especially for these pictures, 1 would want a shutter with speeds up to at least 1/100 second, so that when the subject was lively and active I could still get good sharp snapshots. And I would want an eye-level view finder--I find it the most convenient type for these shots. But whatever camera you use, remember thf points above--balance your lighting for soft shadows, let the child be natural, and watch for good expressions. Do that, and you'll get satisfying pictures. John van Guilder ANOTHER AMERICAN MIRACLE WABXSp 't;-.. /. %!S Geerf* Park Recently we had something to say abtfut the defense program and its temporary beneficial effect on industry. Wfe sounded a note of warning as to what would happen when the defense program was finished unless definite plans are made now or in the •ery near future to take up the slack as industry is forced to lay off men working on armaments and army supplies. History shows that huge sums spent for war or for defense are a temporay stimulant to business but drastic economic collapse follows in the wake thereof. We Americans are noted for our ingenuity. We have done a lot of things heretofore considered impossible of accomplishment. If we once again call upon the brains of the nation and put them to work on this problem, we can perform another miracle and once again astound the world. We need not have a depression after the defense program is completed. Faced with the definite knowledge that two years hence, millions of men now working on defense orders, will be thrown out of work, let's begin to do something about it right now. Let's plan it that way. , With this in mind, not so long ago, we recommended an extension of the housing program. At the risk of seeming to be a bit redundant, permit us to repeat that from 1929 till the out-break of war, England by means of a home-building program, lifted herself up by the boot-straps out of the slough of depression. And further, this was done by free private enterprise, encouraged and guided, but not assisted financially by the English government. The national income for 1941 is expected to reach 85 billion dollars, the largest in our history and due to a great extent to the defense prograss. That income can be jacked up to over the 100 billion mark for 1942 if we launch a home-building program in real earnest. America needs millions of new homes and these rtew homes will require new furnishings of all kinds. So, not only would there be an increased demand for building materials such as steel, brick, mortar, lumber, pluihbing supplies, etc., but industries manufacturing furniture, textiles, and house furnishings of all kinds, would be speeded up. Americans need the homes--America needs a larger national income. Building the former will bring the latter. Let's show the world that America can finish its defense program without going into a financial tail-spin. Mr. Roosevelt, here is your chance --your golden opportunity. Call some more business men to Washington to plan and get under way an extended home-building program. You will find these men ready and eager to tackle the job. , .

MUSTARD GAS IS HOT y POISONOUS _ Because mustard gas was one of the most devastating gases used during the 1914 World war, it has commonly been believed that it is a deadly poison. It is a powerful irritant to the skin and membranes, and caused great suffering to all who encounter it. If it is breathed into the lungs, Us irritating effect is so great that fatal inflammation of the respiratory passages may result, or the lungs may be impaired so that other infections get an easier foothold. It is a powerful irritant, not a poison.
