"J^f ANY things go into the making of an appealing picture -- and not the leaat important is point ot view. You can simplify backgrounds, eliminate undesirable parts of a scene, control arrangement-- all by morlng left or right, forward or backward, or pointing the camera up or down. Consider a picture of a person outdoors. Stand back seteral feet and you get a landscape view with a figure in the foreground. Stand only a few feet from the subject and you get an informal portrait with a minimum of background. In other words, if you want to feature a person--get close; if it is a landscape you want--stand back. A straight-on front view ot a person is all right at times. A diagonal, quarter view, or a side view, however, will usually yield a mere appealing picture. Ot course If there Is a real reason tor taking a frost view, by all means take it.

A new cement walk and curbing has been laid In front of the C. w. Stenger home on Main Street on the 'West side, an improvement which still farther enhances the beauty of the place. The employes of the Terra Cotta factory are now being given a whole day of grace on Saturdays. Howard Wattles and Fred Nickels left this village Tuesday on a several weeks' auto tour through Wisconsin. The trip is being made in Mr. Nickels' -?ewk touring ear. l%e Selective Service Act The prpposal to extend the service of the conscripted soldiers for a period greater than that of twelve menths and to permit their service beyoad the confines of the Wesem Hemisphere is stirring up a great ! controversy on Capitol Hill. General George C. Marshall, Army Chief of Staff, || testffylnig before the Senate MiHtar? Affair* Ctusmtttoe, stated that tile Army SN^I be fnsitlf evippMI at the end W the twelve months period with the discharge of many thousands of men at that time. This was to be expected, but ft is Just as the Army officials insisted that they wanted it St the time the Comtcription law was/passed. It was my contention then, and it still is, that the twelve months period should be for training only; that tile Selectees THIRTY YEARS AGO Among the many improvements that have been made in the village during the past year there is none that has been more- noticeable than the remodeling and rebuilding of the old Gilbert block on the West side, which was accomplished through the expenditure of about $3,000 by the present owiler, Theo. Schiessle. Butter was declared firm at 24 cents on the Elgin board of trade Monday.1 Electric fans are being used more extensively in McHenry this summer than ever before. W. A. Fisher has opened an ic% cream parlor and_confectionery store in the Buch block on Water street. A $200 pearl was taken from a clam fished out of Fox river near thia village one day last week. FORTY YIJARS A0O Peter's at the Fisher % Mark L. Salamon has the record for catching big bass at Pistakee Bay, for last Sunday he landed one that weighed six pounds and two ounces, just in front of his cottage. The storm last Friday was the fiercest we ever had here. About eight windmills, near Johnsburg were blown down. The McHenfy Military Band, under the leadership,.of J. E. Pratt, is coming to the fifont rapidly, and is rendering some high grade music. Mr. Pratt informs as that they are fully prepared and are perfectly willing to give concerts in the park once a week, if the citizens will furnish a few gasoline torches. FIFTT_i*ARS AGO?

Owing to the sudden storm that came up the Mary Griswold" did not reach the Lotus beds as intended. One of {he severest Storms of wind, rain, thunder and lightning that we ever experienced,; passed over this place on Thursday night last. It was almost one constant flash of lightning, the thunder was terrific and the rain fell in torrents. Joseph Frett has leased the Howe building, formerly used as a billiard hall near the southeast corner of the public square, has repainted and renovated it in a substantial manner, and will on Saturday next, open it as a should be taken at Staggered inter vals in order that the terms at no large group would expire at one time, and that those who had completed their training would then form tits nucleus of * gfreat Citisen Army which could be called into service whenever Cori^tetts tfMmed it necessary. By such a method we would continually be building op a great reserve Strength, McDonald's ^Tavern, of trained men and we would not be " ' *" ~ discriminating between one group of selectees and another. The Army officials insisted that the law be in the form that it now is, and a majority of Congress yielded to their insistence. They now demand that the Legislative branch of our Government declare an emergency and that the power be given to the President to keep the present selectees in service for as long a time as might be necessary in the interest of national defense. As your Representative I am unconvinced that a greater emergency exists today than did a year ago. We have made rapid strides in strengthening our 'own defenses. Our production Of munitions, planes, tanks and other war materials is increasing day by day. Hitler has taken on a powerful foe in Soviet Russia, which event has eased the military situation in Western Europe. It is my opinion that, unless a REAL EMERGENCY exists, the Congress is not justified in declaring one in order to create a subterfuge for the purpose of keeping in the military service those who were led to believe that their tenure would expire in twelve months. While I have always favored ADEQUATE national defense I do not favor IN PEACE TIME a large regular standing army of several million men. A standing army of several millions of men IN PEACE TIME is always a threat to democratic government and an encouragement to send an expeditionary force to foreign i battlefields. A trained citizenry, available ONLY upon the call of the people's representatives in the Congress of the United States is our best assurance against the threat of foreign aggressors on the one hand and the menace of a military dictatorship on the other. National Daylight Saving Time In a recent message to the Congress the President has requested the enactment of legislation which would permit him to prescribe daylight saving time upon such a regional or national basis and for such parts of the year as he may deem necessary in the interest of national defense. In his message the President pointed out that the electrical energy of the nation is, to a large extent, the prime energy of our national defense; that it is essential that electricity be conserved in all possible ways, and that daylight saving time is a practicable method of conserving electrical energy. ' Hitler's Rival Adolf Hitler has a rival fOT the of and recognition as the world's meanest man. The German dictator's .* competitor, unknown to his victim and so far to police, recently stole a specially constructed ^Tieel chair -owned and used by Congressman Joseph J. Mansfield of Texas, a cripple. The chair was of a special type necessary for the Texas legislator who has been unable to walk for the past twenty years. It is believed that like his German rival, the thief's greed and boldness will eventually be his downfall. tr -*•0' Property Owners Assn. of McCulloa Lake.

GET OUT" OF fW FL0WEI2 (SARDEN, SCAT/ Angle shots often result in dra> matic pictures and they attract attention because of their unusual* . ness. The illustration above, for ces- ' ample, was made with the camera at a low level, and pointed up» wards. With the sky serving as a plain background, made possible by the point ot view, the boy and girl "standout" and become the prin» clpal interest in the picture. Other subjects may be j^lctured |better with the camera at a^slight elevation, pointed downward. This angle is often helpful in showing details ot subjects where the component parts need to be clearly separated. The next time you're taking pictures, try shooting the same subject from sevf ral different viewpoints. Then compare the pictures. Youll readily see how a careful choice ot viewpoint yields more appealing pictures. John van Guilder mmmip wiiyAi^w-nfwii ' < Sundays^ 8:00 and 10:00. Holy Days: 6:30 and 9:00. Weekdays: 8:00.
