This can only be accomplished by permanent measures and long range planning. At last --a farmer fights for fair play for farmers! .For more than twenty years John Bracken, the Farmer,. was the undefeated leader of a Farmers' Party. To-day,as leader of a great, national, progressive party, he is deter- mined that throughout the length and breadth of Canada there shall be a square deal for agriculture .. fair play for the farmer . on a permanent basis! Farmers have seldom had a tair share d of the nation's income. Rarely d o they e receive a just reward for their endless labours. John Bracken means t stop, once and for all, the unfair discrimin- ation ation against farmers, the unjust economic practices which make it im- possible for farmers to obtainfair prices for the fruits of their ]abUU r. • "It is the responsibility of the nation," says the leader of the Progressive Gon- servative Party, "to see that this great inequity shall not be perpetuated I know where 1 stand in the matter. Let me •make that position clear: It is not fore -ordained that farinerg- shall work for less pay than anybody_else; or have their, children receive only one- quarter the chance of a secondary edu-, cation or one-tenth of the chance of a university education that other children get; or see their wives forced into lives of toil, often 12 but sometimes 14 hours a day—Sundays and holidays included. , The trouble is that no one with the necessary authority has determined to correct the basic economic ills . of Agri- - Culture." To -day, John Bracken, the Farmer, seeks the necessary authority to pat into immediate operation the far-reaching•. Progressive Conservative, policies that will permanently ensure fair play for the farmer. Here are just some of the points in the Progressive Conservative plan for the definite, continuous and permanent protection of farmers against. income collapse and wide ex- tremes xtremes of income fluctuation; The Farmer shall be guaranteed a proportionate share of the 'nation's income. A permanent policy for forward contract prices shall be guaranteed to farmers by law. The prices guaranteed will be cal- culated by anon -political council, and will be based on the farmer's pro-`• portionate share of the national income. These prices will • be an- nounced before the production seasons begin. ' This policy will increase present ' average farm income by not less than twenty per cent. It ` takes `a. farmer to understand farmers' problems. Only a farmer knows the full economic injustice from which farmers suffer. To -day, John Bracken is fighting for fair play for every farmer. The leader of the Pro- gressive Conservatives is determined to bring security and prosperity to farm- ers permanently, Join in the fight. Help him to win his life-long struggle to give Agriculture a place in Canada's prosper- ity, not for a day—but for all tine to come. A Farmer fights for you ... He needs your help.

At right— silhouette against real campfire, using a time exposure. PICNICS, campfires,: and hayrides are events which offer a wealth of picture opportunities. Some pic- nics are daytime affairs, but others take place, at twilight er after dark —and there are no times more op. portune for eharming campfire snap• shots. For twilight snaps, wait until the sky is almost dark. Set the camera for a "time'% exposure, place it on. a. firer support, and take a picture that includes the campfire, the group around it, and some sky. With proper choice of tisne the sky will re- produce deep gray, the campfire warm and brilliant—giving a picture full of the mystery and atmosphere of an ending day. Campfire shots taken well after nightfall are wonderfully effective. They show the fire, the faces of the group about it—but everything else in rich, mysterious shadow. These can be taken just like the twilight shots, with a short "time exposure. It is best to have someone sit be- tween the camera and the brightest Part of the fire -his silhouette will add Interest and keep the fire from appearing too bright.
