Then try developing your own films. It's easy, and you can learn to do.it in very little time. • FREQUIDNTLY I've been asked the question: "How can I de- velop and print 7ny own pictures?" It's a good query—one that many or you probably have been wonder- ing abont—so I'm going to answer it today. Developing and printing, yon see, are in a way the finiehing touches In a photographer's education. Whem he first learns how to make his camera operate, It's as if he were going to elementary school. DIscovering 'what Makes "a .good picture aubiect is comparable to high school. And learning how to develop a print is •equivalent—in the photographic sense—to a col- lege edueation. It means you're hav- ing more fun too. To Mart your own developing the best thing is to purchase an inex- pensive developing and printing kit, You can get them—One might sag —hi alt shapes and sizes. That isn't important, but what really Is Important is that every set contains all you'll need in the way of chemi- cals and equipnient. And inducted in each set is an inatruotion beak - let which explains clearly and concisely the steps to follow in de. veloping a dint and maid)* a print. Such a leek le Invaluable lt an experienced photographer,isn't at , hand to help you get stared. But whatever kit you get—and the inexpensive ones will do nicely at first—you're going to need a darkroom to workin. A large, empty closet will be sufficient, al- though many photographers prefer to work in a larger space—such as a bathroom or kitchen 'which has been made lighttight by heavy cur- tains Over the door and windowe. Or perhaps you'd prefer to puild a regular darkroom of yout own either in the cellar or MU°. In any event when yon're estab- lished and ready to- begin work, you Won't have any trouble if 'you' fol- lew directioni. iaat's the secret of produaing high quality prints and negatives. Just follow the dire°, tion, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. However, here are a few tips. Keep your equipment and develop- ing solutions spotlessly clean; , watch eolution temperatures care- fully and don't work when they're below 60 or above 75 degrees; keep agitating your films and prints dur- ing development; and, finally, waeh everything -- prints and negatives ' —thoroUghlit--at least 20 minutes In running water. c 369 John van Guildee • Recruiting At Hins, Mark London Depot Reports Highest Monthly for More than a Year • LONDON,—The highest:, ,monthey total of enlistmenits in more than a year In military district No. 1 was recorded daring the ancigth of Janu- ary, when 987 men were e7d6sted for • active service in the Canadian army.
