Next Monday the club will meet This ia one of the pictures used in "How to Make Good Pictures** to illustrate the point on back-lighting. Here's "How to Make Good Picture*" *pODAY I want to tell you about ••• a new book that's just now coming on the market--or, to be more accurate, a new version of an old favorite. It's tfie 29th edition of "How to Make Good Pictures," published by the Eastman Kodak Company. This new book is a friendly guide rather than a textbook. I've never seen a photographic handbook quite like it. It's written for pleasant reading as well as easy learning ... shows the reader picture opportunities wherever he or she happens to be, and then shows how to make the most of these opportunities. The book opens with a chapter made up entirely of pictures and captions. It's titled "Let's Make a Picture" and shows step-by-step how an experienced picture-taker selects a subject and camera position, and makes a series of pictures. Then there's a long picturecaption chapter comparing "good" and "better" pictures of many types, pointing out details that make a picture better, and listing basic "points to remember." The mid-section of the book is a picture-taking tour, taking the reader through examples of snapshooting opportunties "Right Around Home," "Around Town,." "In the Country," "From the Air," "At School," and so on. Practically every field of picture- taking is covered -- pictures on vacations and holidays, family events, children and pets, adults at work and at play, pictures after dark, sports and action, flowers, and trick and stunt pictures. All in all, its a great big dollar's worth of simple, down-to-earth advice on picture making. Here are some sample "points to remember": "Sunshine lends sparkle to an outdoor portrait -- but keep the sun out of your subject's eyes." "Avoid noon sun. Mid-morning or mid-afternoon sun tends to give a pleasing 45-degree lighting." "Back lighting and 'open shade", are very pleasant for pictures of children--and adults with blonde hair. Give about twice the normal direct sunshine exposure.'7, --John van Guilder / Vacations In order to be of greatest benefit to any person, child, adolescent or adult, a vacation1 should be enjoyed away from the so-called daily grind--the everyday routine of ordinary living. "" Everyone needs a change, according to a HEALTH TALK issued by the educational committee of th<= Illinois Medical society. This doesn't mean, necessarily, an expensive change, but in the busy adult, burdened with the details of responsibility, a new perspective is essential. "The w o r k - a - d a y " _ l i f e can bring about great fatigue of mind and body. The interruptions caused by telephone bells, visitors and heavy mail, necessary to a position of activity, can become a disturbance to a tired mind .in urban life.. The early rising and the wearying routine of a farmer can, because of its sameness, fatigue him into a state of irritation where his innate love of the land ; temporarily takes flight. Vacations are necessary to bring back zest. For some persons, an automobile trip brings relaxation. In others, a trip to another city, seeing new things, is just the medium necessary to put the mind and body at rest. Again, there are still others who derive great enjoyment from exercise, such as golf, tennis, swimming and all other activities of outdoor life. ; . Whatever your pleasures are, indulge them when it comes to| a vacation. Bear in mind, however, the need for good sanitation. Living quarters where food is prepared. A vacation will be wasted if you become sick from impure drinking water, milk that has not been pasteurized and contamination from, improper sewage disposal. Then it is well to remember the hazards frequently encountered on a vacation. There is the danger of taking too much sun in outdoor activities, of playing too much golf, of camping hear unsanitary water and of eating improperly prepared food. Trying to crowd a lot into a short time is responsible for inadequate sleep. Taking chances is wrong when driving a car. Automobile accidents with their accompanying tragedies spoil many vacations. Everyone needs a vacation, but, Nearly half of all pedestrian deaths occur away from the corner or marked crosswalks. Crossing where motorists expect pedestrians to cross may save your life.
