Seaforth Last Thursday night. Al
though the team went down intending ,
to win it was conceded that with
seven weeks training and a couple
of games undeir their belt, the Eeav-
ers would be in much better con-
dition, and such proved to be the
ease.
la was a fast, heavy -checking game,
with no favors asked or given and.
the Beavers by no mteans• dominated
the play. The Colts made a much
better showing than ;the score would
indicate. In the first period •espec-

after that the terrific pace was more

about ten minutes of play in the

"Christian Concepts
Have Dominated
'World Civilization"
—R. B. Bennett,
For a long time it has been known
that spirit, combined with intelligence,
was often more than a match for
}ower and superior strength. To-
day, the astonishing resistance offer-
ed by the Finnish defenders against
the vaunted Russian jauggernaut, am-
azes the world.
Burt in the light of historical truths,
the gallant stand isnot so surprising.
In the final analysis Right usually
has proven Might.
'.fire Right Honorable R. B. Ben-
nett, femur• Canadian Prince 1VIin-
ister, spoke along similar lines re-
cently when he addressed a joint
meeting of the Royal Empire Society
and the Canadian, Club in Montreal.
"history shows nowt -Christian pow-
ers disappeared," said Mr. Bennett,
"and as a result Cuistian concepts
have dominated world civilization,
"It is well to think of that now
that the principles for which
Christian ci,ilizatiot has stood have
dominated the world, though in the
world there have been millions more
non Ch,i•istians than Christians."
Mr. Bennett's words will withstand
the most rigid, analysis and question -
just study your histo•• and
note the teiumpihant march of Right,
alias Christianity.
Thus the highly spccess'ful tactics
employed by tiny Finland is, in no
sense amazing. It is merely an in-
telligent combination of spirit and
brains in league for a righteous cause.
Ceittnries ago there was something
of a similar nature. In the latter
struggle one leader's name was David
and the other one 's naine was
Goliath.

the rest. Develop natural situations to get more Interesting shots.
IT'S fun to look for picture oper-
a tunnies —but it's more fun to
create them. And many of the finest
picture chances are created deliber-
ately by the photographer.
If you wait for things to arrange
themselves for a picture, you're just
trusting to luck, and you may have
a long wait. But if you take a few
steps to create a situation, you'll
find it easier to get just 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 yon want
it—place the kitten where yott wish
-and shoot. A kitten knows what to
d0 when he's face t0 face with milk.
There are many such occasions
where a little arrangement is a big
help. Ilse a bait to tempt a pet to the
best spot for a picture. Give the
baby an amusing toy—or place an
automatic music -box beside him—
and he'll pose, completely unaware
of the camera. provide some action
Or an older child to carry out -a
doll to dress, a book to read, a model

a theme or story which improves the
picture.
In shooting outdoor scenes or
landscape pictures,' try having a
friend stand in the, foreground, look-
ing at the scene you plan to. picture.
Such a figure adds foreground inter-
est, and directs attention to the
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.
In taking action shots, don't trust
to chance. If possible, arrange with
your subject to have the desired ac-
tion take place at a chosen spot.
Then you can focus in advance, and
be all ready to shoot. For example,
to get a good .shot of a sled spill,
arrange tor Johnny to flip his sled
over at a selected spot near the bob
tont of the hill. This idea also works
for many other sports—summer and
winter.
Table - top photography is of
course outright creation—you build
the subject completely before shoot
