IL VEALEProprietor ana Editor PHONES;—Tribune Office, 1» - Rmidence, 44*A — Member of — The Canadian Weekly Newspapers* A viation THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, NOV. 16,1939 THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16th, 1939 Ontario To Consume 100,000 Bbbls. Apples Meant For Britain Ontario housewives and apple consumers in general can confidently look forward to a continuous fall and winter supply of the "king of fruits” such as has not graced local markets for some time. Ontario apple growers have in the past carefully built up an excell­ ent overseas business, which, of course, has now been lost owing to war conditions and the need of boat apace for war necessities. This means that Ontario teeth will replace British molars when it comes to munching rich, red Ontario Spies, McIntosh, Snows and Delicious this apple year. What British consumers lose in the way of quality apples, Ontario consumers will gain. To make doubly sure that Ontario consumers will gain nothing but the best, the Ontario Department of Agriculture, working with Ottawa, has eliminated all windfalls and No. 3 grade apples from sale. In other words it is a punishable offence by law to offer for sale poor grade apples. The fine is from $10 to $50.Last year Ontario shipped some 100,000 barrels apples to Great Britain out of an 800,000 barrel crop. This year the crop is about the same. Eastern Ontario crop is not quite so large, but Western Ontario or­ chards are heavier: The Ontario Government estim­ ate is that there will be another 800,000 barrel crop with the overseas quota of 100,000 barrels being used right in Ontario and Quebec as according to an agreement with the federal government Ontario grow­ ers cannot ship beyond the borders of their own province and Quebec, leaving the Canadian West to British Columbia growers. Apple growers are being reminded that all open packages of apples must have the same markings as closed packages. This means that in addition to the growers* names, each basket or package must have the variety of apple and grade stamped on it in letters of at least one-quarter inch in height. The grade will be No. 1 and Domestic. The leading difference between a No. 1 apple and Domestic grade is color. In all red varieties, No. l*s must have 40 per cent color, while the Domestic grade requires but 15 per cent In other words, a No. 1 basket must contain all highly colored apples. It is not only healthy but patriotic to eat apples, not once a week but every day. It’s still true what they say about the apple and the doctor. Individualism in BuiinesaThe Matus of the small, independent merchant inour present ootnmerei*] structure to a subject which has received much attention of late from economists and students of business problems. The question whether he has a secure, position in the development of business is being answered emphatically in the affirm­ ative^ The resourcefulness and freedom of action of the individual will always go far toward offsetting the advantage of large-scale operations of the more complicated organizations. The independent business man with reasonable capital willing to utilize new methods and take advantage of new conditions has a greater opportunity today than ever before. Of course in this era of changing business methods the merchant who refuses to consider the new order of things must give ground to his more efficient com­ petitor. The independent merchant who functions intelli­ gently as purchasing agent for his community has a distinct opportunity to render a real social service with profit to himself. The principal innovation in­ troduced by the large * corporation is the newer type of management and the recognized value of large scale economies; but big business has no copyright on profitable methods and mere bulk is by no means necessarily synonymous with efficiency. LOOKING BACK 23 YEARS From the Files of The Oxford Tribune, Ingersoll, Canada, Thursday, Nov. 16th, 1916 On Monday afternoon, fire destroyed the large “L” shaped burn on the farm of Bert Nancekivell, Dereham Township. The damage to estimated at $4,000 and is partially covered by insurance. The two-story stone house of Michael Shannon, West Oxford Township, three miles southeast of Inger­ soll, together with all the content*, was destroyed by fire at an early hour on Monday evening. Mrs. La Penotiere was hostess to the Women’s Music Club on Monday afternoon. Those contribut­ ing to the program were Mrs. Geo. H. Mason, Misses Richardson and Parker, Mrs. R. J. M/ Perkins, Mrs. La Penotierq^ Miss Rumsey and Mrs. Gordon Ellis. On Friday last, the A. O. U. W. lodge rooms were the scene of a pleasant social evening. The prizes for euchre went to Misses Alma Stadelbauer and Jean O’Meara for the ladies, and Meesrs. W. Redhead and R. Taylor for the gentlemen. I Dm'fMte ISALADA’ i S TA M P CLU B ; i" DRAMA STAMPS" ! g l CFRBL-------------------- Legion Auxiliary Urge Registration of Local Women A meeting under the auspices of the Ingersoll Branch of the Ladies* Auxiliary to the Canadian Legion, held in the council chamber on Thursday evening for the voluntary registration of women over 16 years in connection with war work was very poorly attended. Mrs. L. Leivers of Woodstock, was the guest speaker and gave a very interesting talk on how women can be of service to their country, and also outlined the details of the form which deals with this registration. The Auxiliary members wish to ex­ plain that this is an entirely different registration to what has previously taken place. Letters and forms have been sent out to various organiza­ tions of the town so that they may understand perfectly what to expect­ ed in this undertaking. Another meet­ ing will be held in the near future, when Mrs. G. A P. Brickenden of London, will be tire speaker. The Auxiliary stresses the need for women of Ingersoll and surrounding districts to come forward and regis­ ter, for it to in this way that much assistance can be given where it is most needed, and where they can help to win the war by sharing the work with the men. 2 <lr Paper Containers Wooden boxes and barrels are not so common around the home as they used to be. That is the im­ pression the man of the house gets when he is looking for kindling in order to start the furnace going these late fall months, before the fire is finally built never to go out, if possible, until the break-up comes. Look­ ing for kindling, he is confronted with an amazing array of paper boxes, most of them corrugated. Some of the bigger ones may be of wood, but here again there, is a new technique. They are bound with wire rivetted to the thin planking. They are quite difficult to detach. Before the wire binding came into being plain wood with short nails were the vogue, and there was not much difficulty. Today even the fruit boxes and baskets have become less' easy to crush and throw into the furnace. The paper containers are everywhere. We use them as drinking cups, and have overcome mostly the old dipper habit. It may not have been hygienic enough -to satisfy the doctors but there was something friendly about it There was plenty of romance in going to the well when just the right maid was ready to accom­ pany the carrier of the woodenpail. We are getting away from these old things at a fast clip. Note what statistics tell us—that the output of paper boxes and bags has a factory value of over $30,000,000 each year, roughly speaking nearly $3 per capita. One-third of the lot are corrugated boxes and one-fifth of them folding boxes. Paper clothes are in the offing, but that is another story.

One Must Be Careful Every Canadian citizen should'take heed of the following provision of the Defence of Canada regu­ lations which are now applicable throughout the Do­ minion: “No person shall by word of mouth spread reports or make statements, false or otherwise, in­ tended or likely to cause disaffection to His Majesty or to interfere with the success of His Majesty’s forces or of the forces of any allied or associated powers or to prejudice His Majesty’s relations with foreign powers, or spread reports or make statements false or otherwise intended or likely to prejudice the recruiting, training, discipline or administration of any of His Majesty’s forces.” Already there have been' a number of prosecutions in various parts of the country for infraction of this regulation by persons who were careless, intentionally or otherwise, in their references to the war situation. Of course the regula­tions apply likewise to the printed word. Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Magee had the pleasure of celebrating their 45th wedding anniversary on Nov. 13th.

Garfield Hcsscnaur of Aylmer, is spending the week with her mother, Mrs. Cotter, Albert street Cosmetic* Praised Physicians are divided as to whether young women should uae cosmetics, and certain hard-heartedburi- ness executives say there’s too much powdering in between times—too much rouging and lip-sticking and fussing and fixing, nevertheless, the director of one of tiie biggest American life insurance companies, employing thousands of girls, tells us this: “We encourage the use of cosmetics among our girls within reasonable limitations. Heightened effect­ iveness, assurance and general'’competence may bo gained by skillful makeup. If a girl feels that she is attractive and personable, then fear, awkwardness and self-consriousa ess juw lessened, and she is apt to be a much better worker, with greater chances of success. Most girts, we find, are intelligent about •deh things, and all they need is a little sensible guidance.” Mr. J. G. Gibson of Toronto, spent the week-end in town at the hopie of his parents, Mr. and Mra. Joseph Gibson. Mra. Borrowman of St Catharines, was a recent visitor at the homes ol her daughter, Mra A O.

The president, James M. Malcolm, occupied the chair and the assistant secretary for the past year, Mrs. Verne Meek, acted as sec­ retary for the meeting. Mr. Malcolm in reviewing the work of the Trust for the past year, paid tribute to the co-operation ho had received from the members and the personal interest they had taken in the affaire of the hospital. He referr­ ed to the great loss sustained by the Trust in the passing of Mr. Fred N. Horton, who had served as a mem­ ber and secretary for some twelve years. The work of T. N. Dunn, chairman of the Property Committee came in for a greait deal of pratic. Mr. Malcolm thanked the superin­ tendent* Mrs. Elizabeth D. Duff for the very fine way she and her, effic­ ient staff lead carried on their work and he also mentioned the work of Miss Loretta Anglin, who was in charge during the absence of Mrs. Duff through illness. The reports of the Assistant Secre­ tary, Treasurer and Hospital Superin­ tendent, are given in detail below. The election of members to The Trust for the ensuing year was held and they will meet at an early date to select the officers for the year.

This year the trust suffered a great loss in the passing of one of its members, F. -N. Horton, who ^was a faithful supporter of our hospital and secretary of the trust for 12 years. It is with a great feeling of regret and humility that I attempt to present this report. “During the past year there have been 12 regular meetings of the Trust with an average attendance of 10 end one special meeting with nine members present At the beginning of the year an extensive program of improvements to our hospital was recommended by the superintendent and by the medical staff. The Trust have not been able to carry out all these recommendations but have car­ ried out some of them and have done the usual-necessary repairs to the equipment and building.. « QQJnfi 1'ufl “An electric call-bell system has been installed, a mobile X-ray ma­ chine purchased and in connection with this machine the Trust are most appreciative of the efforts of the Legion to raise funds for its purchase. Acting on the recommenda­ tion from thp inspector of hospitals, the clothes-chutes have been lined with metal and safety locks installed on the elevator. The men’s ward has been redecorated and two Gatz beds have been installed there by the Women’s Auxiliary, made possible by the annual donations of the Lady Dufferin LO.D.E. x“I would like to suggest that any of you who have not already d'ofie so, read the annual reports of the Women's Auxiliary, published re­ cently. Then you will realize the great assistance that organization gives to the Trust in the managing of our hospital. The need for an ob- stcrical bed was pointed 'out to the Trust and the purchase is under consideration.

President Fred Bigham was in the chair and the guest speaker was Col. Francis B. Ware of London, Secre­ tary of the Christmas Seal Committee of the Queen Alexandra Sanitarium, Byron. Two members of the London Lions Club were guesta at the meet­ ing arid the members were entertain­ ed with violin selections by Ted Sharpe, twho was accompanied at the piano by Lioo Victor G. Shipton. Lion H. K. Edward introduced Col. Ware to the gathering. The speaker gave a most interesting talk and his address was well received. He traced Che growth of Queen Alexandra Sani­ tarium from the time it was founded :in 1909, by the late Sir Adam Beck I as a 42 bed hospital to the present ' time "when there is accommodation for upwards of 700 patient;. The work of the hospi.al in spon­ soring travelling clinics that visit numerous towns and cit’es in the counties <rf Western Ontario each month, :was a most valuable service to the communities concerned, Col. Ware declared. The London Health Association who operate Queen Alex- andra^Sflnitorium, jire co-operating with'other institutions of a like na­ ture in public educational campaigns so that the public may know the ser­ ious effects of the dreaded disease of tuberculosis. He cited means by which the disease is transmitted from one perron to another and explained that it was not heridatory. Col. Ware said the travelling clin­ ics were doing a most wonderful work and that they were being car­ ried on through the generosity of the public in purchasing Christmas seals. Last year no less than 5021 men, .women and childern in Western Ontario had received free examina­ tions at no cost to themselves, and in cases where the disease was noted in its early stages, treatment had re­ sulted in changing the lives of those afflicted from one of sorrow and despair to one of health and happi­ ness. The Christmas Seal Campaign covered seven counties, served by the London Institution and Col. Ware appealed to his hearers to givo their best possible support to this year's appeal by purchasng Christmas seals during the next six weeks and to give all possible publicity to the Christinas Seal Campaign. He ex­ pressed the thanks of his committee to The Ingersoll Tribune for the fine co-operation given the campaign last year and mentioned that Ingersoll as a result had increased'its givings by over 45% over the-previous year. The thanks of the club were ten­ dered the speaker by Lion J. Ferris David. Six new members were re­ ceived during the meeting, Dr. A. W. Waring, Wilfred S. Ashman, John E. Borland, Moran Haycock, Stanley R. Moon and Herb. White. They were welcomed by Prekident Fred Bigham. ALEX. ROSE LICENSED AUCTIONEER for theCounty of Oxford.

Any appropriate snapshot can be made into a Christmas card . . .but the best cards are those witha picture especially made for the purpose. For example, a snapshot of the family carrying Christmas tree ornaments, hanging up stock­ings, or putting a Christmas wreath on the door. Bach pictures can, of course, be taken long before Christmas. The most ingenious pictures in­ clude the greeting. Thus, Johnnycan be shown writing "Merry Christmas” on his own blackboard ... or on a frosty windowpane. Thebaby can be shown building a greet­ ing with his A-B-C blocks. Of course, you build the greeting, then step aside—but that doesn't show in thepicture. Cards can be simple, or quite elaborate. The simplest type 1* an inexpensive cut-out mat or mask,behind which the snapshot is pasted. In another type, the picture and greeting are printed together on one sheet of photographic paper.You can do this with one of the Christmas card kits sold at camera stores, or any photoflnlsher can do itfor you at modest cost. And—speak­ ing of cost —photographic cards run no higher than ordinary printed or engraved greetings that have far less personal quality. Now is the time to start on your1939 cards. Do it early—while you bavb plenty of time to do It well— and it will be twice the fun. John van Guilder F.

Marriage makespeople unhappy Look at your life.Look at Daddy and Mother Do you think I'd dare? But there havebeen great friendships, like the one’swe've read about We might neversee each other, but we could write,and it would be wonderful." "More than wonderful." So it was agreed. They would write, but they would keep apart.Charles would go on With his book,and Anne would find some work tofill the emptiness of her days "But they will not be emptynow.” she told hint as he left her. "Nor will mine." he said in amoved voice Marmot Patterson rode often inthe park. She was al her best onhorseback, and she loved the rhythm of it. The old nursery rhyme wasrunning in her mind this morningin the midst of the whirling storm."The north wind doth blow and weshall have snow” How well sheremembered her old English nurse teaching her that song as they hadwatched the snow from the window. She thought of herself as a child.A pretty child. Spoiled Not by hernurse, but by- her mother and father. And then in later years by Charles.That had been the trouble. If hehad bossed her or bullied her therewould have been at least the excite-n:ent Well she had excitement enoughwith J rt. His youth and energyhad kept her on her toes. That was am tarred with the same brush asher parents." “You mean you love her?" sheasked incredulously. “I am not here to discuss that." he said. He left her then He had givenher what she asked, but she was notsatisfied. In three weeks she andBart would be married and would beoff to London on Charles* money. Bart had no money of his own. On Christmas Day Charles hadwritten to Anne: “Last night as 1 stood tnfront of my log fire, the scentof the woodsmoke brought back to m? the night when you cameto me through the moonlightHow little 1 knew when Ilighted that fire in the meadow tlut it was a sacred flame, sym­bolizing all that was to comeafter Perhaps that thought isn’tclear, but I am trying to saythat there are things we can’texplain, but which are as defin­ itely a part of us as the ’reali­ ties' of which we moderns talkso much. The moonlight, thestars, the woodsmoke rising,these are all as tangible to you and me who love beauty as are bricks and mortar and sticksand stones to those with lessimagination." And Anne, writing on the samehigh note, said: "Ail my world is wonderfulbecause I know that you arein it" For months their letters went back and forth. Charles was free,but that fact did ribt change the quality of his friendship with Anne.They were content to share at longdistance the ecstasies which belongto those who soar above the earth to skies that reach to far horizons. Charles, swayed by deep emotionand inspired by Anne’s belief in him,found his book gaining in <’eptb andstrength. And Anne, eager to matchhis endeavors with her own, planned with Vicky to open a school for the countryside children who needed morning, more than ever like th« fairy princess in their story books The children danced until theywere tired, then were put to restwhile Anne and Vicky went back toset forth on a long table fruit and sandwiches and milk. Thus it happened that the chil­ dren, wide-eyed, were the first tosee a slender dark-haired man de­scend from a shining roadster andwalk towards them. “Where is Miss Ordway?" asked the man. "Over there," said one of thechildren, pointing. "She said shewas expecting a gentleman.” Then Anne came running up. "Garry!” she said. "Where in theworld did you come from?" "I’m just back from Italy. I calledup your father and got your address,then motored down to Vicky's, and they directed me here." Anne's mind was in a turmoilWhat meddlesome fate had broughtGarry here on this day which wasto have been Charles* own? She found herself saying "We’re having a picnic lunch and you musthelp us eat it." "It is not of food 1 am thinking.Anne, why didn’t you answer myletter?" "I told you not to write. I wantedto be away from everything." “And everbody—including my­self? Well you needn’t think you can lose me^I’ve come back morein love with you than ever, my dar­ling.” “I'm not your darling." "You have always been. You can’t make it different by saying so. And now. when are you coming home?" “Home?" "To Carroll County." “I’m not coming back." "But you can’t bury yourself hereforever." "I’m not buried. And 1 meanwhat I say—that I am never goingback to Mother and Daddy. I amdone with them.” "Anne, how can you be so hard?” There w m a good attendance atthe regular meeting of the “Cheer­ful Workers” Class of the BaptistChurch Sunday School held at thehome of the teacher, Mrs, B.

Willed Weld, Ann street The Effect of Boiling Wool “Wool, Is an animal fibre, Boiling animal fibre kills it—in fact, ruins it and deadens the whole structure. After wool is boiled, it loses all its characteristics which are: 1. Redlence and Elasticity—(this as you know, is its ability to rtretch and contract.) 2. Body—(its fed and general spongy texture.) 3. Softness. 4. Life—durability.) “In the processing of wool all, pro­ cesses up to the dyeing process, are developed to avoid extreme heat and none can go as high as boiling tem­ perature. It is not possible to avoid boiling with all dyes and those where boiling is necessary show that the wool has deteriorated and is not nearly of the same quality as yarns where dyes can be used at lower temperature. “Wool fibre is wool fibre regard­ less of its quality. Boiling causes much greater shrinkage in fine Bot­ any yarns thun in the coarser wool. It therefore stands to reason that with the coarse wool, such as is being used for service socks there is less need to avoid shrinkage than if a fine yarn like a .Botany were used. In abort boiling of any wool is definitely harmful as anyone, with any knowledge of wool, will sub­ stantiate. the charm of him. He dominated,and even made her doubtful of herpower to hold him. She had neverbeen doubtful of Charles. So she had let him go. He still, she was sure, loved her.She could have him back when shewanted. But she did not want him. She wanted Bart. And as she rode on through the snow her thoughtsran ahead of her to meeting himthat night at dinner and a danceafterwards. . She rounded the top of a hill andlooking down saw a car with thesnow falling heavily about it andas if to provide for her the excite­ment which Charles had always failed to provide, the wind suddenlyblew the snow away and showedher husband, and against his shoul­der the head of a girl. She had thought Charles inconsol­ able, And here he was consoling himself with youth and beauty! Thetemptation was great to confronthim now, but she thought better ofit and rode on, her mindAiot on Bart but on Charles and the girl in hisarms. f - She did not see Chyles again un­til after the decree warranted and she was a free woman. She met him in the office of his lawyer. She wasasking for a lump sum of money inlieu of alimony, so that she mighthave a gay and gorgeous season in London and in raris.

Already the Fertilizer Supply Com­ mittee haa investigated the prospect­ ive supply of fertilizer in Canada and the present indications are that there is a sufficient quantity avail­ able for war requirements, except perhaps potash. Normally about half the supply of potash used in the Dominion comes from Europe, the other half from the United States. It may be difficult to obtain potash in Europe while the war is on and production in the United States is not yet equal to the needs of that country. For 1940 ti would appear that Can­ ada has about 70 per cent of ito pot­ ash requirements already available, and by 1941’ it is hoped that arrange­ ments will be made for substantial importations. The Dominion Depart- Pri. | ment of Mines and Resources is in­ vestigating the possibilities of locate ing supplies of potash in Canada. Subsequent to the war of 1914-18, large potash deposits were found in New Mexico and California, even more than the known deposits in Eur­ ope. There is some hope thst deposits may be found in Nova Scuta and other parts of the Domi.ru n. Owing to the prospect of an exces­ sive demand for fertilizers manufac­ tured in Canada such as sulphate of ammonia, ammonium phosphate, sup­ erphosphate and mixed fertilizers, an Order in Council has been passed prohibiting exports except with” the approval of the Minister of Agricul­ ture. The permits for export are issued by the District Supervisor of the Plant Products Division, Domin­ ion Department of Agriculture Thfe provision to regulate exports has been considered necessary mainly due to the depreciation of Canadian funds in the export markets and the greater demand on the North Amer­ ican continont for fertilizer chemicals due to the curtailment of European supplies. The Order in Council abo gives the Provincial Departments of Agri­ culture the right to state analyses of mixed fertilizers that should be manufactured and sold within the respective province. The recommen­ dation of the provinces will be ac­ cepted as the basis of registration for issuing permits under the Fertil­ izer Act for tiie duration of the war. The purpose of this is to eliminate from manufacture and sale all analy­ ses of mixed fertilizer not essential for soil and crop requirements, there­ by reducing the cost of production and distribution; to permit the prov­ ince to decide as to analyses of fertil­ izer so as to tie in with promotional activities for a greater production campaign that may be necessary for war purposes and to simplify the Members* of the Kiwanis Calf Club ware guests of their spon­ sors, the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club, at a supper meeting held in the Ingersoll Inn on Thursday evening. Kiwanian Dr. C. A. Osborn, the club president occupied the chair and the speaker of the evening was Kenneth R. Wil­ son of Toronto associate edit I of the Financial Post, who was a i Mem­ ber of the press party that toured Canada in May and June on the Press Pilot train at the time of the visit of King George VI and Queen Eliza­ beth to Canada and the United States. Mr. Wilson’s subject was “When Royalty Came." Introduced by Kiwanian Royden G. Start Mr. Wilson said that the Royal visit was for Canada and Can­ adians a happy dream and a fantasy. Coming before the present war, it was a factor in cementing the Em­ pire ties between Canada and the Motherland. As the result of the visit to Canada the high place and pur­ pose of kingship to the people of the British Empire was recognized more than ever before. The speaker described some of the interesting facts in connection with the make-up of the Royal train. Some of the highlights of the trip across Canada and back were reviewed, and Mr. Wilson dwelt on the ovation and applause that greeted the Royal couple at their every appearance. Speaking of His Majesty, Mr. Wil­ son said, “I marvelled at the thor­ ough and efficient success he was making of himself over the tour. When we stop to think of his back­ ground—that of a serious, shy younger son in place behind the Prince of Wales, always in the back­ ground and then suddenly to be thrust headlong into prominence at such short notice and now to see and know him to be a very conscientious, hard-working chap with a kingly pur­ pose, filling a colossal position with dignity, with thoroughness; awell in­ formed man if ever there was one. We should be thankful for such a king and ruler. I believe he is one of the best-informed men of the whole world and he has been very much concerned lest he waste the lime of his country’s leaders because he him­ self might not have been as well in­ formed on many subjects as he thought he should be! It is a lesson we might all well take to ourselves, for so often we do not take the time nor the trouble to inform ourselves on things that we alone should be re­ sponsible for without troubling others. “As to Queen Elizabeth, she is one of the most genuinely attractive women in the world,” declared Mr. Wilson. “She has that delightful fac­ ulty of putting herself in other people's positions and, if she were ’plain Mrs. Jones’, she would endear herself to all by her amazing sense of intuition for she seems to know h> stinctively what to do and when to Boys’ KEEPS MEFEELING LIKEA MILLION DOLLARS Time to start on your hand-madegifts, and here are suggestions from the Art Needlework De­ partment. .The Young People’s League washeld on Thursday evening of lastweek, with the /Vice-president, BillMorris in charge and Misa Ruth Jol-liffe as pianist.

DORCHESTER THURTELL’S Port Office-Drag Store "We Know Drugs”9782. Thia comes from an English paper There was once an American lady travelling in a London bus. She nursed an extremely homely child that proved to be a most hypnotic attraction for an old gentleman seated opposite her. The American lady was naturally indignant. “Rubber!” she said. The gentleman appeared vusUy relieved. “Thank God!” he said. “I thought it was real” A simple “tabla-top” .hot, thia football hero would add fun to any album.Try .table-top photography—you’ll Ilka It, ^SNAPSHOT GUILD TABLE-TOP PICTURES Now in Stock...

It’s printed here just to give yon an idea of the fun thatcan be bad from table-top photog­ raphy. A "table-top" picture Is a small scene or set-up which you arrange—then photograph. Such' pictures ^*c*a be either serious or humorous, f according to your fancy. And theycan be quite simple—or, if you pre­ fer, the scene can be worked ont elaborately down to the last detail.All sorts of materials can ba used—toys, odds and e^ds around the house, bits of carpet for grassylawn, fluffy cotton tor snow, salt or huger to imitate either sparkling now or a sandy desert Small fig­ures you can make yourself—from vegetables, bits of stiff wire, pipecleaners, wood—and dress them in scrape of cloth or fur. Indeed, the Ingenious photographer win findhere an unlimited field.Our football hero, above, is a very simple set-up. The ball was propped up on a table, a blanket arranged at the bottom, a helmeton top. The eyes are paper circles with Inked pupils; the mouth, a paste-up of gray, black, and white paper. ,For light, two photo bulbswere used in cardboard reflectors four feet from the subject. Thislighting would enable you to take a snapshot with' a box camera, using high-speed film.Try your hand at 'ttable-topping” this winter. It's great camera fun —‘both in arranging the subject,and In shooting it. And everybody likes a good table-top picture.
