OUR TOWN
I bet God smiles when He looks
down "I" 1s
Upon: a gentle, little town,
Weeb narrow streets and winding
lanes
And bumps roads in rolling plains.
There's nothin' faney nothin' great,
Just lots of love and not much hate.
Why, if you'd walk along the street
There'•s just no teltin' who you'd
meet.
There's Pedro in the market place
With tasty resat and smilln' face;
And Homer rim the corner store
West allways, Jeanne on the door)
Then Reverend Smythe, with head
held high
Would doff his hat as. he passed by
And hurry on to save some souls
From Lanett,' in the burnin' coals'.
A•nd• then, o' eours:e, there's little
ones
The ,tawusfollcs' daughtersand their
sone;
The most of them live in tae park
A-Iplaydn' there frons dawn till dark.
I geese' you couldn't miss. old Peg,
The soldier with the wooden leg.
Who plays the fiddle and sometimes
sings
To help Isis tracle o' peddiint things.
We call him Peg andhe don't mind.
There's sometbing grand about the
kind
Who go on liven' in the past
As long as precious memories last.
Well, then, there's Doctor Martin's
place
01' Doc has ne'v'tr lost a regia
With any stae]c tent canoes' his way
And, one flies, down most any day,
Then over there, on, Sunday morn
We tubule our God for beau` born
And pray three we can do some geed
For other folic as all men should,
Then sing a bit ante hear the text
About time world that's eomin' next,
17ost every day is Just the, same
I guess our town don't .have much
tame;
We tend our hones and till our
fields
And hope that with the autumn
yields
. We'll' have enough that Ewe eau
store,
.And with the seising still plant once
note.
We :live together, toll and sweat,
Ws quarrel then forgive, forget;
We've seen some born and others
die
And us toot's, left don't question

We ge on ))vitt' tw before—
But still I twantat say once more,

USiNG THE SELF -TIMER
A self -timer enables you to get shots of yourself—such as this breakfns•
table study—without having someone else snap the shutter. Such a
device Is a great convenience In the camera kit.
HAVE you ever tried taking in
formal self -portraits — or per-
haps a story -tolling sequence of
shots of yourself, busy at some
hobby or everyday activity about
the house? It's an entertaining cam-
era pastime -and with the aid of a
self -timer, you can shoot such pic-
tures easily.
The self -timer is a small "de-
layed -action" device which clips on
the cable release of a camera, and
trips the shutter after a brief time
interval. Setae flue cameras even
have a self -timer built into the shut-
ter. You simply place the camera
on a firm support, press the release
catch of the self-tuner—then step
into the picture, and pose as you
wish, until the shatter clicks.
'With a couple of photo bulbs, a
selt-timer .attached to the cable re-
lease of your camera, and a short
"scenario" of a I1altdoaen or so pic-
tures to act out, you can have no
end of fun all by yourselt. For ex-
ample -taking the picture above as
a .cue --you might show yourself tit
a hurried breakfast, putting salt in
the coffee by mistake, bunting the
toast, spilling Milk on the news-
paper, and then discovering it's
Sunday and you don't have to work
after all,
Or, it you're interested in char-
acter studies and make-up, self -pert
traits with a self -timer may be eyes
store fun. Set up the camera jus
below a mirror, in which you cal
check your expressions. Put on the
make-up—work out the most suit
able lighting—then release the sell
timer and it does the rest whil
you pose.
The great advantage of using
self -tinier, in photography such a
this, is that you can take as nine
time as you wish on details—an,
not keep someone else standing ii
just to trip the shutter for you.
If you make a hobby of bniidi
ship models, or airplane models,
similar construction work, the so
timer is also useful. With it, yc
can get snaps of yourself at velem
'stages of a job, and these will p
vide a welcome addition, to yo
hobby record, In family pletur
the self -timer is likewise a. gra
help, You need no longer be "jt
the photographer." With the aid
this little gadget, yott can app
in any picture you take.
The self -timer, of course, c
only be used oh a oamel'a tiaat l
