Camera CM Tskes First PtoM Trip The first field trip of the Ringwood Camera club took the group down to the dam last week. Passers-by who thought that there were some pretty high Jinks going on can set their fears at rest. That man forcing fully matured jlrls where he wanted it to grow was just a photographer trying out effects. And that other chap who carefully put a heavy rock on the end of his fly rod and then leaned back to pull the rod into the taut position normally associated with a "big one". He was a photographer, too, and was only posing to aid his friends. And the dainty gal who posed with one bare toe in the water to create a few cheese-ckke effects, she's a photographer, too, and it was all , done in the name of photo graphy. The snap-happy group was composed of Roy and Alice Noren, Wonder Lake, Helen Stoff„el, McHenry; Walter Zahray and Harold Podall, Woodstock. Instructors on the trip arho gave advice on composition, background and light, were Philip J. Malmstedt, Lake Geneva, salesmanager of Edwal Laboratories; Thomas T. Hill, • Des ' Plaines, chief chemist for Edwal; and Shujikimura Kimura, Oak Park, research chemist in the photografic division of the company and photo enthusiast.

"Holidays are hazard days", said Ned H. Dearborn, president of the telephone conversations; and mic-( Council. "When you take a chance rowave which carries television and telephone conversations without wires by "narrowcasting" the tiny electrical waves from to tower across the country, SAFETY COUNCIL PREDICTS INCREASE IN TRAFFIC DEATHS Don't make your steering wheel a wheel of chance--because yon bet your life! That advice came from the National Safety Council as the nation approached the Fourth of July holiday, one of the most dangerous periods of the year. With traffic fatalities on the increase this year--up 9 per cent so far--the Council is coordinating a nationwide' campaign to hold down the usual upsurge in Independence Day accidental deaths. One hundred and sixty-three national organizations, as well as state and city public officials, are cooperating in the efforts Last Fourth of July almost '700 persons were killed by accidents of all kinds during the three-day holiday. Many more died later as 1Kb result of injuries received during the celebration. Traffic accidents were the chief killer, alone accounting for about 300 deaths. The Council expects more pleasure- seeking motorists to pile into more cars and roll up more miles on this holiday and the week-end preceding it than ever before In the country's history. For many it will be a four-day vacation. More than thirty-six million motor vehicles will be on the move. The increasing number of new on the highway you are gambling --and the stakes are human lives. You can't afford to lose in this game. "Police and those who have authoritative control over public safety will be especially alert an^ vigorous in their enforcement of sane ruleB of public behavior. But f they can't police every mile of „ every highway. The individual must police himself. "It everyone would keep In mind the words 'Take It Easy on the Fourth--Be Alive on the Fifth', this Fourth of July would bring much less tragedy and much more pleasure." ^ FIVE copiis Of LINCOLN SPEECH COME TO CHICAGO To celebrate the "four score and seven years" anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, the Chicago Historical Society will bring together In November all five copies of the speech In Lincoln's own handwriting.
