BIRTHS SCHWICHTENBERG--On Satur- day, January 26, 1963, in Southampton General Hos- pital, to Mr, and Mrs. Wil- bert Schwichtenberg (Mar- jorie Coultes) a daughter, Lori Jane, SMITH—In Halifax Hospital on January 18, 1963, to Mr. and Mrs. Donald Smith, a daughter, another great- grandchild for Mr. and Mrs. Gershom Johnston. dren grow up quickly, but photos keep them young for- ever, Families separate, as children mature and move away from home, but they're always together in your snapshot album That's why, on Sunday after- noon outings, your camera should be as much a part of your equipment as a road map. And it's easy to picture family history indoors as well as out. Add a flashbulb to your cam- era and, in effect, you bring the sun indoors to light your picture -taking. Just remember that natural expressions are all important. When bleary-eyed Junior feeds the baby, when Mary dresses in mother's clothes for a "pretend" tea party, in fact, whenever your children do something cute, that's the time to take a picture. These are the snaps that will be viewed time and again in the years to come, ra- ther than formal shots of the youngsters staring blankly at the camera. Then, too, the best family shots are generally close-ups; they bring you right up to the subject and let you see the de- tails. And they are simple; they concentrate only on the persons you want photographed, and tell only one story, but tell it well. Be sure to shoot more than one picture. Take several, and select the best for your family records. Catching revealing shots of your family is a matter of ob- servation and quick action. Be ready to snap the shutter and preserve the laughs and fleet- ing expressions that are charac- teristic of your family. Legion Plans 4 Pilgrimages OTTAWA—The Royal Can- adian Legion has announced that some 320 Canadian par- ents will have a chance to visit graves of next of kin killed in World War II and buried in Holland. Four pilgrimages are being organized this year to war cemeteries in The Nether- lands. The pilgrimages are organiz- ed rganized by the Netherlands War Graves Committee, a volun- tary organization. The Legion acts as an agent for the Dutch group, which has been provid- ing extra care for Canadian graves since the war. Chairman of the Committee Save Your Sight and Share It, Promotion of Wise Owl Club With White Cane Week dedi- cated to prevention of blind- ness, E. F. Wheeler, district field secretary of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, saluted the Wise Owl Club of Canada. "Since CNIB took over the Club 18 months ago, 450 in- dustrial workers have received awards for saving their eyes from injury or blindness by wearing safety glasses when on- the-job accidents occurred". The Club was begun in a United States City in 1947, when an industrial worker drop- ped the idea into his company's suggestion box. His suggestion went into effect at once and met with over -night success. Other plants in the same city took up the program and soon the Wise Owl movement began to spread across America. When it took on national proportions, industry invited the National Society for Preven- tion of Blindness, New York, to take over administration of the awards. By the mid 1950s the movement had entered Canada through United States firms with Canadian branches. In 1961 CNIB became responsible for the Canadian Club which became known as the Wise Owl Club of Canada. "Safety glasses really per- form miracles," the CNIB rep- resentative said. "Accidents happen in a split second. One minute everything is undercon- trol and the next, an accident is taking place." He spoke of one man who was digging a manhole on a city street with his head and shoulders above the ground. A stone from a passing car shattered the right lens of his safety glasses.

Herman Goetzen said in Otta- wa: " The people of the Nether- lands are extremely pleased to be able to offer accommoda- tions and hospitality to four groups this year". The quotas for the 1963 pil- grimages have already been filled from applications re- ceived last year. Successful applicants for the first pilgrim- age will be announced shortly, explained D. M. Thompson, Legion Dominion Secretary. Cost to the pilgrims is $205. This includes return air fare from Montreal. accident was unexpected and one of those which most people would say "It can't happen to ° *VILA me." Another man, a label machine operator, had a direct hit on the right lens of his safety glasses when a jammed bottle broke. His glasses pre- vented what would undoubtedly have been a lost eye. White Cane Week is under way. Do your part to prevent accidents. Save your sight and share it with those who cannot see.
