MARK ZIMMERMAN WINS SECOND IN SPEECH CONTEST Mark Zimmerman, McHenry chapter F.F.A. vice-president, won a second place ribbon in the Section 6 public speaking contest held at Harvard last Thursday night.

What better way to show appreciation of small fry art work than to take a picture of it? Flash on camera makes this type of picture taking easy, indeed. Flasl;! And You've a Picture for Remembering Flash photography makes picture taking indoors easier than if you were snapshooting outdoors on a summer day! That's because the sun, while a wonderful source of light, is a variable one. It is not always easy to be sure just how much light there is on your subject. But, with the ;ight all sealed up in a flash bulb, you know exactly how much there is. All you have to do is rollow the iiytructions (those racked with your film and on the lash bulb carton) and you can't £o wrong. Another advantage--you can put the subject in any spot you wish without any concern as to the direction of the light. One of the latest developments in the realm of flash photography has made it more convenient than ever before. People sometimes complain that flasholders are bulky, inconvenient to carry around-- with the same being said for the flash bulbs. But that needn't hold you back any longer. Because now, both come in a midget size. The bulbs are so small that many people call them "peanut" bulbs--but. actually, we've seen bigger peanuts (in the shell, that is). The midget flasholder even comes apart nicely, for slipping into pocket or handbag. That's what the mother in the above picture is using as she snaps a picture of George Washington's birthday art work that has just come home from kindergarten. Keeping camera, flash attachment and bulbs handy pays off in wonderful snapshots for remembering. --John Van Guilder b <J\ C,AlD<pr\e^) "H~0 These Marching Feet Will Lead To Grew St. 118 Where A New Family Shoe Stove Will Open Soon!

CSfgssb St. OLD GAME, NEW FAVORITE One of the most profound changes in the character of our population in recent years has been the steady increase in the number of persons 65 years of age. and over. In 1900 there were only aboijt three million sons in this age category but by 1950 this number h a d i n • creased to twelve and a half million and it is expected t o r e a c h nearly sixteen million by 1960. One of the unusual ways in which this change is manifest is a fitrge of interest in that old favorite card game, Solitaire. Although it is played by card players of all ages, Solitaire has always been especially popular with invalids and older people with time on their hands--those who have no one to join them in a two-handed game. Solitaire fans will advance many reasons for their devotion to thf game but the chief one seems to be that it eases tension and prevents boredom by occupying the handa as well as the mind. Whatever the reason, Solitaire has become so popular that manufacturers have brought out a special Solitaire package consisting of a double deck of playing cards and a colorful, illustrated booklet, "150 Ways to Play Solitaire." One of the most popular of these versions and 9 particular favorite of the latePresident Roosevelt is Spider. To play this game,' two regular decks are shuffled together and dealt out to form a row of ten cards face down. Then three more rows are added face down on the first, followed by four more cards face down, one on each of the first four piles, making in all forty-four cards. Now deal a row of ten face up on the Placards may be built on each other downward, regardless of suit. The sequence ends with the Aoe. The King may not be built on it. A group on top of'a pile, in correct sequence and also in suit, may be moved in whole or in part. Thus there is a premium upon making the "natural" builds in suit, when possible. On removing the last face-up card from a pile, turn up the top facedown card, which then becomes available. Object of play is to assemble an entire suit of thirteen cards in ascending sequence from Ace to King, from top card to bottom. Whenever . this is accomplished, it may be lifted off and discarded. Game is won when all eight suits are so assembled and discarded. The many devotees of Spider claim it is the best of all Solitaires because it provides extraordinary opportunities to overcome the bad luck of the deal by skillful manipulation. LADIES!
