And what a car it is! It can stand examination with s critical eye— surely it seems as if the mechanial road millenium has dawned. The sighs o f those who bemoan the passing o f old craftsmanship— o f what avail are they in the ¿ c e o f this miracle wrought by auto- r is tic machines and mass p>oduc- t'o n ? N ot fo r $10,000 could the old artisans have produced this yrace- fu ' efficient and com fortable vehicle costing less on an average than $800. F or these reasons the 1935 auto mobile shows assume an extraor dinary economic importance. The new cars meet the requirements o f a diminished national income and •till come up to the higher stan dards set by the car-buying public. T h ey conform to changed conditions Four or fiv e years a g o the poor est car could find en ugh buyers to net its makers a profit. Today the m arket is sm aller and knows good auto flesh.

Avoid atilt poeee such aa the picture te the righ t S TH E R E any form of amusement older than story telling? From the cradle to the grave wo hear stories—and like them. Before you were able to toddle, you were bear ing about "Th is little pig went to market, etc.," while mother gently pulled each toe as a matter of illus trating her story. Hundreds of thousands of Juvenile story books are sold every year snd the ones ws lovs most tn our young- er years were those translated Into pictures, because they had a human appeal. All through our lives ws re tain our Interest In plcturs storiss. It Is this appeal that takes ns to the movlee and c a u s e s us to look through the pages of dally newspa pers and mags sines for pictures that tell stories of human activities. Bat when It comes to snapshots, so many seem to forget how much they enjoy looking at story-telling pictures. They pick up their cam eras and Just shoot, seemingly satie- fled to get any picture at all. as It was tn the old days o t "Yon Press The Button And W s Do The R e s t* There Is a better way to take plo- turee. K you want some good laughs look over tome of the plctnres yon have taken. Unless you are an exception, and let's hope you are, yon will prob ably find a picture of Uncle Louie standing as straight as a plumb-bob Una, backed up against a tree or the garage door, and appearing to be facing the firing squad ready to be shot at sunriaa. If Unde Louie can’t do anything else, the chances are he can read a newspaper, so why not have him do that You will have a plctare that tella some sort of a story at least, and Is seasoned with that human Interest touch that should be In every film you expoee. You go out on a picnic with your I friends. What do you do? The chances are that you Una np the gang, you snap the camera and again bate Just another plctare when It would be lust as easy to hate the crowd enjoying the Innch and perhape one member busily en gaged in the act of "exterminating" a luscious ear of corn or doing a "boarding bouae reach" tor the po tato salad. If you were making motlee. would you take foot after toot of Him with your actors d o i n g nothing? O f course n ot and It lan't a bad Idea to think of your "s till" camera as a m otle camera filming a drama. Oat action and meaning.

Just take a look through a newspaper or megaxlne and notice which please yon more— pictures of people merw- ly looking at the camera or pictures of people doing something humanly interesting and significant Chances are that the story-telling picture* will be your choice, and you'll make np your mind that hereafter that’s the kind you'll aim to taka Good luck!

There have been great changes taking place in the tim e since I came o f age, but nowhere has g i eater revolution taken place than in Woman's en tire sphere. But I ’ll be getting into deep w ater if 1 d~n't watch m y step. Which re minds me o f the picture o f a lad with an astonished look on hi* face lyin g sprawled out fla t on the ground— a picture that appeared in on* o f my old reading books. Un der it was the caption o f the reed lug books. Under it was the cap tion o f the reading lesson. “ Mind Your Step.’’ The story told o f how the lad had been heedlessly |n pur suit o f a bu tterfly and had tripped just as he swooped down on the insect, a* he thought. But in real ity he fe ll fla t on his chest. And speaking of the changes that have taken place, perhaps some of the heedlewmesa of modem | 700th. The old reailers told fables, every one with a moral. They told unlikely stories but they were al w a y« chmaxed witfii that mythical quantity, poetic justice. Perhaps and then . again, perhaps. But if ><-u K N O W , you know more tihaa I do and honestly, just between you and me— I wouldn't want you to breathe a word o f it, but I think I know quite a lot. Some confession I ’ll be forced to admit, in this age when modesty is a t a premium and the A y . bashful boy is forced to the front but the conceited jacks napes is prom ptly sat on. I started to tell o f the old faah- i( ned quilting», but I do not think I'd better tell you much about them, the truth is that I never did know r.uch about them. Only I do know that loggin g bees and quiltings s<ri o f teamed together. But husk- inf, bees were fo r the your.g folk » ard who ever knew o f any i f the young who could quilt? It takes years o f practice with a needle fc_> require that fa cility o f even stitch es, and keeping to the special de sign that on « has to follow . As th « poet sings. “ For ways that are dark and fo r tricks that arc vain, th « heathen Chinee is peculiar.” N ow I know a fellow v ho was my brother-in-law but who just seemed a wee bit pecu liar to us. Father had taught us to look fo r quality when making purchases. Perhaps that ia why I am wearing the same overcoat I purchased in 1914, and a suit o f cloth «* has to last four, aix or e- wen eigh t years!
