eSNAPSNOT GUILD
CREATING PICTURE CHANCES
A "created" picture—the photographer spilled the milk, and the kitten did
the rest. Develop natural situations to get more interesting shots.
IT'S tun to look for picture oppor-
tunities but lt's more inn to
create them. And many of the finest
picture chances are created deliber-
ately by the photographer.
It you watt for things to arrange
themselves for a picture, you're just
treating to luck, and you may have
s long wait. But it you take a few
steps to create a situation, you'll
find it easier to get juet the picture
you want—when you want it.
For example, look at the picture
above. Is there any point in waiting
for such a situation to occur natur
ally? Not a bit. It's much simpler to
spill the milk right where you want
it—place the kitten where you wish
—and shoot, A kitten knows What to
do when he's face to face with milk,
There are many suet occasions
where a little arrangement is a big
help. Use a bait to tempt a pet to the
beat allot for a picture. Give the
baby an amusing toy—or plate an
automatic music -box beside lem—
and he'll pose, completely Unaware
of the bathers. Provide some action

In shooting outdoor scenes or
landscape pictures, try having a
friend stand in the forage -end, look-
ing at the scene you plea to picture.
Such a figure adds foreground inter-

scene beyond. In picturing snow
scenes, tramp out a path leading into
the scene where it will help the com-
position of the picture. Such devices
often add better pictorial quality
to your shots.
to taking action shote, don't trust

Then you can focus in advance, and
be all ready to shoot. For example,
to get a good shot of a sled spill,
arrange for Johnny to flip his sled
over at a selected spot near the bot-
tom of the hill. This idea also works
for many other sports—summer and

New Songs
of Canadian Life
Set to tunes from the Old World
Two pages of the new book of Canadian ballade by John Murray Gibbon and published' by
Singing of
Canada -sixty
new songs of
Canada have
come to life
over the past
few months
and now they
are given to
the world in
John Mur;ly
Gibbon's new-
est book "New
World Bal-
lads" which
J. M. GIBBON has just' come
from the Ryer-
son Press, Toronto. It is a most
attractive little book, beautifully
printed and illustrated and for
each ballad there is a pleasant
singable old tune that Mr. Gibbon
has dug from somewhere out of
the past.
The 'songs are gathered into ten
groups which, in a general way,
cover different periods of Cana-
dian history such as "The Pion-
eers" and "Settlement & Indepen-
dence", while others sing of moun-
tains, rivers and prairies — Then
too, there are ballads of the canoe,
of the trail and of the seasons —
ia'short it is a very comprehen-
sive book of Canadian song which
should meet with a hearty wel-
come from Canadians everywhere.
Tact tunes selected and printed
with the ballads are lovelyy old
melodies which have been brought
to Canada by settlers from the
British Isles and from Europe.
Some of these are dance tunes,
some are tunes of which the
words are no longer generally
known or which belong to a lan-
guage that is not English, Mr.
Gibbon bas written the ballads
especially for these tunes.
The writing of ballads to fit old
and well loved tunes dates from
the time of Shakespeare. When
Queen Elizabeth came to the
throne of England in 1558, the
the Ryerson Press, Toronto
balladmonger sang at the fair, the
words of broadsheets which he
sold for a penny. Shakespeare
knew them, and fn the snatches
of song in "Hamlet", "The Merry
Wives of Windsor" and <A Win-
ter's Tale" revealed bow much he
owed to the ballad singers. Up
to the time of Oliver Cromwell,
lyric poetry was not yet consider-
ed as something apart from music,
so we find Christopher Marlowe,
Ben Jonson, George Wither, John
Donne and Robert Herrick, all
great poets, still writing verses to
old tunes. Later John Gay took
tunes from Prance as well as
England, and we find succeeding
poets, including Barns, Scott,
Stevenson and Moore writing bal-
lads based on a tune.
New World Ballads is an ideal
collection of songs to make the
music hour a memorable one in
scbools and camps as well as in
homes. i
Nothing But the Truth
Just recently a man stole a dozen
slhirts which were displayed in front
of a store 4n Tileomburg, The proper
way to sell shirts ist to keep therm
inside the .store and use the local
newspaper to tell docks about them.
That is the truth, the whole truth, I
and nothing else but. But how few
merchants believe it, or will try it
out to teslt its truth.
Hoy many merchants. will spend a
day or two a week in, dreesing a
store windrow to attraot the atten-
tion of those passing by. That is
business$, of course, and: real busi-
ness), too.
But haw many would spend a
quarter of that time in writing a
readable sdlvertiseiment that would
be seen by twenty -dive for every one
that actually passed the store win-
dow, and studied. by Httty to one who
stopped to study the store window.
And how massy more Would. come
into a town when invited by real
Odtveuttsemeints to do so, instead of -
leaving it to chance that some day
someone will see a store trent or a

There are suite a few more who

why the other 'fellow's store draws
