VACATION PICTURES
Vacation snapshots provide endless enjoyment. Take general and scenic
views, but be sure to get "fun" pictures and close-ups too...
WHY are vacation snapshots so
VvYv Important? The answer is really
quite obvious. You want to show
Dad and Mother back home; or Jane'
and Bill next door, where you went,
°what you did, .and the different
things you saw. You also want the
pictures to refresh your memory
later on. So if you want a really
good rule for successful vacation
snapshots, here it is..Rae)) the folks
back home in mind—those who will
want to know :all abodt roiir trip
and shoot your pictures for,:them.
For picture ideas, consult, travel
:folders end brochures. You can
probably obtain several, descriptive
'-of the place you are going to.,yisit,
and you'll find a wealth of material,
not only. in the illustrations but in
object or a person in the foreground.
This will add depth to the view.
And, don't forget "activity" shots.
You'll want lots of these. They will
show what you did and the various
things you enjoyed. These shots will
be more interesting if you catch
your subjects when they are busY
doing something, and not looking
straight at the camera.
Look for scenes that are charac-
teristic of the part of the country
you visit. Such snapshots `add•inter-
est to your album, and appeal to
friends who may not have visited
that particular spot.
Here's a little note of caution. If
you aro 'going to some out-of-the-way
place, or if your camera is one o4
unusual size, be sure to take an
adequate supply. of Alm.

line, but we could always wear a
—V— for victory in our individual
lives.
After all what a wonderful word
Victory is! We can apply it to any
part of our Byes. There is victory
over sin, which can only be won by
prayer. Christ has promised us vic-
tory in our everyday lives if we just
come to Him and ask for it. There
is no part in our lives to which the
word victory cannot be applied. It
may be we have some secret sin, We
think we can never gain the victory
over it but with Christ's help we can
He has promised us that He will be
with us and if He is with us His ad-
versary can have no part in our life.
The difficulty is that we try to go
on and do these things for ourselves
without asking Christ to help us.
Through the days of virtual peau
since the last war Christ was in com-
mand and He still is.. We
allow tere his
asking "Why does
terrible war to go on? Why does God
permit this or that? We would not
have very much confidence in a
General who went about asking his
soldiers what he should do. We have
very much more faith in our Heaven-
ly Father when He directs war ef-
forts Himself. Christ has never lost
a battle and He will not lose this one.
Things may not go according to our
wishes, but as long as they go the
way God wants them to, that is all
that should concern us.
Men and women can desert from
the army of their country today. If
possible the military. authorities will
trace them and bring them back. We
can also flee from the forces of the
Lord; but we will come back of our
own accord, Christ will not force us
to leave the ways of the world, and
either teem or return to Him. If we
want Jesus Christ in our lives we will
eventually be victorious.
