The hectic rush andbustle at breakfast, the patter of small feet down long school halls as class bells ring, and much poring over texts and note- books under the living -room lamp at night. A new season—and a new field for the camera. How many of us have good roller- tions of sohool-day snapshots—plc- tures of our own school days, or our children's? Most albums reveal too few, and the chance to make others *ill not return. Look at Johnny as be tightens the strap about iris books, and goes whistling down the walk to another day of classes.

Do you have agood "off to school" snap of the children, showing them as they turn at the gate to wave goodbye? Probably not—yet it would bo se easy to bring out the camera any sunny morning and catch a quick anapehot you would any snapshots around the school grounds—at the tennis court, the outdoor drinking fountain, the swings and seesaws, and other places where children gather? Pic- ture your children there, and later on your snapshots will help them re.• call the good times they and their young friends had at school. - When the children are old enough, they should have cameras of their own. A good box type camera will serve their needs admirably, and it, is hard to imagine a better gift. The growing boy or girl will delight in picturing Mende, school activities, school scenes — and inexpensive cameras are so simple now that any child can operate them. At borne at eight, "study" pic- tures are worth while, and you can make them with any camera, All you need is a couple of inexpensive photo bulbs, and a toll of fast super sensitive panchromatic film, Why not try to keep the full story of the sehool year in pictures? Sone day these sohool-time sleepshots will be highly Valued possessions. 20? John van.
