"bigger theatres" with breaking faith

full benefit of the admission 'tax

.stated that the smaller theatres had

to accord them special consideration
when the government considered its
pianfay a new amusement tax.
:Hepburn did not intimate whether
the foreshadowed tax would be col-

by the government itself. In the last
year the tax was in force in On-
tario, the levy amounted to two mil-
lion dollars. It may be that The
government will provide for dries

'tax, as the Premier has stated of
late his desire to relieve municipalit-

John.T, Graham'
After being in failing health for
the past two ,'years, John Thomas
Graham passed away at his home on
Saturday, October 8th. at the age
of 74 years and six days.
Mr. Graham was one of the best
known farmers in Stanley township
where he farmed on the second con-
cession on the farm now owned by
George Baird, up tmtil three years
ago when he retired ani' moved to
Clinton. He was a man of upright
character and of a kindly and quiet
disposition and while not disposed
totake an active part in public af-
fairs, was faithful to the church, be-
ing for many years a member of the
Presbyterian, later United Church at
Brucefield. He was a Conservative
in politics,
Mr. Graham was born at Auburn
and was a son of the late William
Graham and Eliza Brown. In March,
1920, he married Elizabeth Dale who
survives to mourn his passing, also
two brothers, . Dr. Melvin Graham,
Alberta; Goldie Graham, Stanley
township, and one sister, Mrs. James
Broadfoot .Seaforth.
The funeral service was held at
the residence, Rattenbury street an
Tuesday afternoon and was conduct
ed by Rev. G. G. Burton assisted by
Rev. W. A. Bremner, Seaforth; form-
erly pastor of Brucefield church. The
pallbearers were all neighbours from
Brucefieldi Joseph McCully, George
Baird, Harvey .Taylor, John Mc-
Cowan, Arthur, Caldwell rand John
McEwen. The floral tributes were
borne by nephews, William, Jack and

Our Daily Bread
An Expert's Pronouncement on
• the Merits of Flour
A leading authority on agriculture,
Sir Daniel Hall, has written a book
for young people "Our Daily Bread,"
which will give equal delight to
grown-ups. There will be many
townspeople who want to know what
life on the land and on the farm is
like who can find in Sir Daniel's
book just the information they re-
quire. For instance, in his chapter
on wheat he writes:—
"There has always been a dispute
as to whether the stone -ground flour
or the white flour is the better food,
whether one ought to eat white
bread or brown bread. Now modern
science has discovered that certain
valuable constituents of food called
vitaminsarepresent in the husk and
germ but not in white flour.
"People are -apt to get rattier ex-
cited about this question of white
or brown bread, more positive per-
haps than the science of the matter
should allow. But as in so many of
these cases there na no single an-
swer. Ito is probable that brown
breead containing a certain amount
a the husk is better for children
or grown-up teen and women who
lead quiet lives no towns without
much exercise, but men doing hard
work can get better value out of
white bread'" •
"Though the germ is so highly
nutritious it cannot be left in the
floor because it contains certain fats
which make the flour keep badly and
other substances which tend to make
the bread soft and sad."
Mother Nature vs. Time
When there •are thunderstorm's,
watch repairers can expect a boom
in business the following day, chief-
ly in the number of broken main-
springs, says a watch repairer who
has spent thirty-five years in the
business. •
Several Swiss professors are mak-
ing a special study of the problem.
They think the atmospheric changes
caused by the thunder and lightning
affect the molecules of the main-
spring.
The ehief trouble iht summer is
damage from sand, or being .suTt-
tnerged in water by a forgetful own -
Women break most watch crystals,
says this watch expert. Motorists
break their watches oftener than the
man who does not drive a car: The
inost mystified victim of a broken
watchspring, however, is the man
who puts it on the chair beside his
bed in Winter, raises the window and
jumps into bed not knowing that
rapid cooling of a room ruins many
watches.
The balance wheel of the average
watch runs. twenty times as far as
the average automobile in the sane
time.
Other statistics reveal that the bal-
ance wheel of a watch snakes 500,000
swings every tWenty-four hours; • the
rim of the wheel travels twenty-
three miles a .day; a watch runs 8,700
hours a year, and the balance wheel
beats the stupendous number of
150,000,000 times in that period.

"OFF -GUARD" PICTURES
For more natural pictures, catch subjects "off-guard"—unaware of the
camera.
MOST people like to have their
IV A pictures taken. In fact, they like
it so well that when they see the
camera they put on a special "Na-
ture expression." And as a rule this
special "picture face". isn't what we
want at all.
There's a way to keep your sub-
jects from seeming camera -con-
scions. Briefly, it is—"Catch them
when they aren't looking." Don't let
them know their picture is being
taken.
Pictures so taken are known as
"of -guard" snapshots, Such Snaps
attract attention because they pic-
ture the subject in a natural, char-
acteristic pose and get away from
the usual look -at -the -camera -and -
smile type of picture with which we
are all too familiar. An "off -guard"
picture can tell a real story while
the other type tends to the just a
record picture.
How to take them? It's easy. Just
learn to handle your camera un-.
• 'obtrusively. Wait until your subject.
is paying no attention to you. Then
usually snap his picture. It's all a
an'atter of using your camera non-
chalantly and efficiently. The better
you can do that, the More easily you
can capture snapshots that are truly
"off -guard."
1f you use a focusing camera, with
fast lens, try to anticipate picture
opportunities, and set the camera in
advance for •distance and proper ex-
posure. Then when the snapshot
chancedevelops, all you need do is
shoot.
For example, to take the picture
above, the camera was set in ad-
vance for six feet. Lens and shutter
were set for an exposure of 1/50 sec-
ond at f.11—less than normal, be-
cause the bright, sunny beach was
reflecting plenty of light. •On a
grassy lawn, which reflects little
light, exposure would have been 1/50
at f.8. With his camera pre-set, all
the picture taker had to do was wait
for the melon to be cut,, and catch
his companion's •' delighted expres-
sion. It was just .a matter of lifting
the camera and snapping the shut-
ter.
If you haven't tried taking "off
guard" shots, try it. It's fun, and the
results are a delight.

it so well that when they see the
camera they put on a special "Na-
ture expression." And as a rule this
special "picture face". isn't what we
want at all.
There's a way to keep your sub-
jects from seeming camera -con-
scions. Briefly, it is—"Catch them
when they aren't looking." Don't let
them know their picture is being
taken.
Pictures so taken are known as
"of -guard" snapshots, Such Snaps
attract attention because they pic-
ture the subject in a natural, char-
acteristic pose and get away from
the usual look -at -the -camera -and -
smile type of picture with which we
are all too familiar. An "off -guard"
picture can tell a real story while
the other type tends to the just a
record picture.
How to take them? It's easy. Just
learn to handle your camera un-.
• 'obtrusively. Wait until your subject.
is paying no attention to you. Then
usually snap his picture. It's all a
an'atter of using your camera non-
chalantly and efficiently. The better
you can do that, the More easily you
can capture snapshots that are truly
"off -guard."
1f you use a focusing camera, with
fast lens, try to anticipate picture
opportunities, and set the camera in
advance for •distance and proper ex-
posure. Then when the snapshot
chancedevelops, all you need do is
shoot.
For example, to take the picture
above, the camera was set in ad-
vance for six feet. Lens and shutter
were set for an exposure of 1/50 sec-
ond at f.11—less than normal, be-
cause the bright, sunny beach was
reflecting plenty of light. •On a
grassy lawn, which reflects little
light, exposure would have been 1/50
at f.8. With his camera pre-set, all
the picture taker had to do was wait
for the melon to be cut,, and catch
his companion's •' delighted expres-
sion. It was just .a matter of lifting
the camera and snapping the shut-
ter.
If you haven't tried taking "off
guard" shots, try it. It's fun, and the
results are a delight.
