McLeod, Thursday, Nov. 30th•1944 Dear Friends: Well, I suppose you have been wondering what has happened to me and, maybe you will think I've been a bit !slack in not writing. But I've been moving around quite a bit since your last letter Mrs. Prentice. And then again I'm not much of a hand at writing, but I hope that you will forgive ;me for this long delay and I shall try to do better in the future. I received your last parcel ok. I think it was in July. That's the one Maude Wston packed and if I haven't thanked you yet I wish to now, thank you, one and all for your kindness. You might be surprised to hear that I ani Overseas (again) and although I cannot tell you the name of place. I have been here quite often' before and you have heard me talk of ;it, 'so you probably have an idea. It might surprise you more to know that at present I ant in the "Royal Naval Hospital" over here with a slight leg injery. But I assure you it isn't tierious and if it comes along 'ok. I should be out of here in a short time. I hope so anyway, as I don't want to miss my ship and it does get pretty lonely and monotonousin one of these places. It might seem sort of early .for Christmas greetings, but better early than late, so I want to wish you and .all the Bayfield Community a very Merry and Happy Christ- mas: This will be my fourth Christmas away from home and although the wereincomplete before, this one seer's .more so because I am married how and antis my wife very much, in fact we have only had 'six weeks together since we were marribd in April. However, let us hope this is the last one away from home and friends. There are thousands more like me so I guess I shouldn't com- plain too much. Although I am over here my ad- dress on the ship is H.M.C.S. "Parry Sound" % F.M.O. St. John's Nfld. So when you write, se!:d it there and if it is or isn't changed in the mean- time, it will be forwarded to me eventually. Well friends this isn't a very large letter but I just want to 1J convey to you again my Best Wises and Many Thanks for your kindness in the past and I hope to see you all again when this is over. I haven't :seen any other Bayfield boys for quite a long time except John my brother who incidentally . expects to be home on leave soon. So I shall 'close now and expect to hear from you boon.

Patterson. 0-lere's a good example of how a picture can be improved' by cropping and enlarging. LOOK through most any collection to see if cropping and enlarging.,.. of snapshots and. you will find many. pictures that could be greatly improved by cropping. 'What's cropping? It is simply a method to eliminate unessential or .extraneous areas surrounding_ the main subject in a picture. If you ,,could always get close up to your :-subjects so that lust the main point -of interest would x811 the negative :;area, cropping would seldom be necessary; but you can't. The illustration •above shows you how snapshots can be improved by cropping .,and enlarging, The lowe=r picture was made from the full neg- .'ative. Notice how your attention is attracted from the main subject (the 'terrier) to the interior of the car and the steering wheel to the right. But look what happened when the ;picture was cropped and enlarged, :as shown, in the upper picture. The perky little terrier is the main at - 'traction and you have a picture that brings out all his personality an& ,ene that you and your friends will will improve the picture. When you look at fine photo- graphic illustrations in magazines and hooks, remember that in every case a photographer saw the picturo first through the camera. He com- posed it in his finder and snapped the shutter. Chances are, however, that he cropped, or,masked, his neg- ative to eliminate ' objectionable areas when he made the final en- largement for reproduction in the magazine. ' • f A- convenient and easy way to study a picture for cropping is to mit two "11' shaped pieces about an inch Wide from white paper or card- board and then use these two pieces as an adjustable frame to mask out the objectionable parts in your print. • When you find an arrangement,. that pleased you,outline it with a pencil and your, photodinisl cr will follow the instructions for cropping when he makes, the enlargement. Look over some of your old prints and negatives. You are pretty sureto find rawly that can be transformed, by cropping and enlarging, •from ordinary snapshot caliber toexcel lent examples of good photography. 301mu van Guilder The nexttime you receive prints mad negatives from your photo - finisher study your picture carefully GOL)ERICH TOWNSHIP Miss Grace Lobb, Miss Phyllis Harris and Miss Estelle Cox visited at their homes last week end.
