Ontario baseball fans who have fol- lowed the activities of the Toronto Maple Leaf Baseball Clubs have an excellent opportunity to get a first hand view of their teams against the 'stiffest opposition in the Interuation- el' League race during the Victoria Day holiday week -end. Victoria: Day holiday games mark the first appearance of the Rochester club and they present several stars from the St. Louis Cardinal .organ- 'ization who' have been hurried from -other Cardinal farms clubs in order to give the Red Wings all possible strength. Weintraub, who played ,un- der Billy Terry in New York, is now • on first base for the Rochester ,ciub and Delker has taken over the short- stop duties. Bob -Weiland is the big pitching hero on the Rochester chub sand he will likely work one of , the Victoria Da holiday games against the Leafs. Klienke, Harrell, Michaels 'arid Kaufman are also available to baffle the batsmen with their effi- roient pitching slants. ` he Steffy of a Man '11'60 )Poli Wild `1'Ii i 1 lu Th rry Rli,a !1 1,1, ii.il�1''1'1,I�'y• Wheili Mrs. Forsyth's .ikb 16Ulit finally dierl, leaving' her seven lints.

A wealthy customer of his in Bath once gave, him an absolntcly "certain" tip to buy some tinniipe shares. In an astonishingly short space of time he lost fluty ponitds.', True, Mrs. Forsyth knew nothing of this 'transaction',' but it had left its.. victim with bitten memories. And when he heard his wife an- nounce what she intended to de with tier windfall, he was filled with an ahnost incredulous disinay. "George," she chuckled, "I'm go- ing to hang onto the Arkwrights for three months. ',Must have a bit: of a. gamble: You see, 0 .black cat walk- ed right in through the french win- dows this morning. Besides, my nep- hew on the Stock Exchange 'phoned, and he said O.K. So I'd be simply crazy to do what you say-" "But,. Alice," protested Mr. Forsyth, with dignity, once again hurt at the light way his wife treated serious subjects. "If you sold now, you'd be certain of nearly seven hundred and fifty pound. I've got my little bit, and with yours we'd have the fifteen hundred pounds we wanted. As soon as we had fifteen hundreds pounds we were going to buy that business. And now you want to back out." "Beek out nothing," said Mrs. For, syth, poru•ing herself another.' cup of coffee. "In no time, -I'll have fifteen hundred pounds myself. You see!. Or maybe more. Don't forget the blackeat, and then my nose itching dreadfully yesterday. It's my money, after all. You've always been ",a pessimist, George, and you always will bel' "Blit I've got a hunch," insisted. Forsyth helplessly. That morning he took - his hunch Mid Isis bag of samples to the South Coast, for Mr. Forsyth was a com- mercial traveller. All the way down in the car he was miserable, for he could not get out of his mind the idea that his wife's seven hundred and fifty pounds might vanish into thin air before he returned at the end of the week, Consultation with' three experienc- ed business friends on whom he called did not improve; his spirits. "Ahl" said the first mournfully. "She ought to sell while the selling's good Now, I remember hesitating for one day, and losing a clear five thousand pounds." The other two, both men in whom Forsyth had the deepest trust, re- membered equally unfortunate • ex- periences, and expressed the gravest fears about the Arkwrightshares, which they considered to have reach- ed their peak in a recent boom. Forsyth had known nothing of the recent boon -let, and his spirits sank lower than ever. All his life he had been annoyed by his wife's foolish belief in omens and portents, and he would willingly have clrowend the black cat whieh was the direct cause of Inns present discontent. Towards the inicleile of the morn- ing • Forsyth, who was a teetotaller, stopped his car outside' Wellworth's end went it for an iced lemon -and - barley. While he steed moodily stp. jiing and considering arguments to use on Alice' when he returned, his eye caught a counter on which birth- day horoscopes were offered at six- pence each. Good Lord, it was Alice's birth- day to -morrow! "The stars cannot lie," said the showcard. This, reflected Forsyth, miserable, was the sort of nonsense en which Alice based 'theirfuture prosperity. .Horoscopes, and blacx cats, and pictures in the tea -leaves - Wait a moment, though. Suppos- ing Alice's birthday forecast could be used to force her to sell? For- syth fumbled for sixpence, searched for to -morrow's forecast, and took his purchase out to the car, where ha could read it in ,peace, As he read, he smiled. "In niatters'of.the heart, be wary this year. If you are in the early forties, the stars cio not male this a favourable year for investments. Sell,: then hang'on to your cash, and wait :for two years before you take risksa--" M'r. Forsyth slapped his knee. 75 could 'not be better, for Alice was forty-two. But he would have toroce 1 p Oc warily. The best technique would be to pooh-pooh the whole thing, Ile stroked his nionstacho, . and remahi-. ed deep in thought. During the following week -end he Made no reference to the shares, bot took every opportunity to Mock aro' Alice's little superstitions. On Sun- dayevening he cleverly switched the conversation round to 'the influence. of the stars for the. fortunesofTm- man.. beings. "There's something : in it," ventur- ed Alice thoughtfully. "Twenty 'years ago,that man on Southend front saki I should marry; a traveller," "Stuff and nonsense!" declared 10rong, ltti', 'Woralrth, Ma! i:In' his voice at 11100 Il051'liful.0011 unseal: "Why, 1 war !11 Wt kworth's. olio day"': last wuok, find they actually had holo= modes 0» uyury day of the year. imagine people belying the Things."

"1 suppose if you'd been with the you'd have been as silly' as the rest and paid your sixpence-" "And what if I had?" blazed Mrs. Forsyth. - 'With glee, her husband saw that she was getting into a very annoy- ed and contrary mood. "What if I. had?" she went on. "Everyone knows - everyone who takes the tronble to react about that the stars have vibrations, and when you're born they-er - Any- way, the man on Southend front- was tight, wasn't he?" "Coincidence!"' 'said Mr. Forsyth very loftily and very calmly. "But, honestly, my love, I can't believe that even you would take that sort et thing seriously" He had his head turned away from his wife, but watched her through the corner of his eye. "People just kid themselves. I knew a man who swore by the wretched things, and never even bought or sold a share without see- ing what the blessed stars thought about it. He made a lot of mosey, But it was just luck -not the stars. Alice, I can't believe that a sensible woman like you would buy one o the things." "That's jtist where you're wryng," answered Alice grinsly, "I'm going to send Sally out for one in the morning. Thanks for the tip." Mr. Forsyth reached for the pa- per, and sniffled to himself. It takes diplomacy to manage. a wife and a wife's investments. On Tuesday ev- ening he sat in the commercials' room at his temperance hotel chuck- ling to himself, reading a letter which had just conte in from his wile, His plan had succeeded beyond ex- pectation. "Put very glad you mentioned that about the horoscope,". wrote Alice. "It's marvellous. I sent Sally out for one first thing Monday morning. It has a lot of other things in it be- sides what I ought to do about the shares. "Anyway, I'm sure I'd rather be guided by what the stars say thah what you tell use, old boy! You're toocarry and matter of fact by far. As I say, it's marvellous. And I'm going . to act on it right away. It's much colder here to -day. May- be I'd better send .on your' winter pants and vests- Forsyth's eye passed swiftly over the kindly reference to his bodily comfort, but the meaning diel not wink in. IIe was solely concerned with the magnificent success . of his 'diplomacy. Ile felt like whooping with joy. Ile glanced round the room. Tia- yellers were really rather a decrepit lot. Near him a bald, grey -bearded man of sixty snored loudly in a wick- er chair. Alice's money would ,be safe after all, They would buy the little business he had thought about for twenty years. And it would be good-bye and good riddance to all this. Forsyth reached for his paper. Ai- icewould only be just in time. Ark- wright Ordinaries ware clown to eighteen shillings. During the next three daiYs For. syth, fortified by the knowledge that everything was well, diel 'far better than usual. Keenly he looked or - ward to Friday, night, so that he could get home to Alice and make plans for the future. Friday afternoon found him pack- ing _lsio begs into the car and heed- ing for home, In Guiidfordhe sten- ped for a drink of lemon -and -barley aui turned casually to the "Busines- ses for Sale" page of his evening paper, Large headlines in the "City", page made him stop short,.'

"What did I tell ,you, George? What did 1 ,toll yo0 ?"

Electric Organ on Display At the annual Electric and Radio Show held recently in the Border City Armouries, the Canadian Radio Coin- lnission placed on exhibit its new electric organ, a novel instrument whichhas created considerable inter- est since its appearance on the mar- ket several weeks ago. The organ, which is part of the modern equip- ment now being acquired for the Windsor studios, was demonstrated to large auclieaices. It was featured in several broadcasts ,originating from the Armouries in the presence of thousands who attended the show, About Donald Heins Thirty-four years of creative and artistic activity in the musical life of Canada, has made Donald Heins 'an interesting national figure. He came to Canada following a brilliant aca- demic career in Leipsigand .London and spent many years .in- Ottawa, during which time he successfully established and conducted the Ottawa Symphony Orchestra, was honored with the appointment to instruct Princess Patricia in her musical studies, and organized classes in the violin for the public schools. After his removal to Toronto, ad- ded distinction followed. He has been 'a member of the faculty of the Toronto Conservatory of Music for sone time and is viola player and assistant conductor of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, He is a cora- 1 poser of marked ability and a fine performer on the organ. Mr. Heins is prominently listed on the Commission's new summer pro- gram schedule, contributing his many talents to the design and direction of "En Dinant," heard from the To ionto studios on Monday, Wednes- day and Friday, at 5.30 to 0.00 p.m EST. He leaves shortly to conduct examinations in Western Canada for the Toronto Conservatory.

Six more Saturday night periods (8.00 to 8.30 pan. EST) of these concerts. will be broadcast over the commission network. Four year's after the Boston Sym- phony Orchestra was founded by the late Major Lee Higginson in 1881, it was decided that the orchestra give a post -season of nightly concerts for several weeks f:eattlring• those semi - classics and lighter' masterworks sel- dom programmed for the regular sub- scription season, These were or'ig- inated in the old Boston Music Hall until the present Symphony Hall was completed. 'Then, as now, the regu- lar auditorium seats were replaced by 'tables and chairs around which lis- teners enjoy light refreshments while listening' to ai. Strauss waltz, a Sousa morels, a Beethoven scherzo or a paper at brain, "Didn't ---didn't you sell, then?" he stuttered, not dewing to hope. "Sell?" answered his wife. impat- iently. "Sell? Of course, not! The stars saicl hang on, So I' hung on! 011, Gecrgo, how nnuch shall"' WO make? It's ton 117ne11 for me to work out. Bat it only shotes-" This was too much for Forsyth. "What diel the stars say, darling?' Inc said, trying to put as - munch sar- casm into his voice as his bewilder- ment would allow. "Look!" commanded Alice, hing- ing a much -thumbed pink 'screed front her pocket. Forsyth blinked in surprise. The Wellworth Horoscope had been or- ange, "Look! 1t says that middle-aged peopie will have a windfall, be lucky !1i investments, and must liold on tightly to what they have fol• the bnnte being. It's by a professor, too, and it cost one shilling' at Browns booicstall. Sally wasn't going near Wcliworth's on Monday, so she paid the extra sixpence at Brown's.'

H A AI :SNAPS ®T CUL PAINTING WITH LIGHT When lights strike from the same distance on either side the result in a photograph (left) is a balance that tends to "flatten" the subject. In the other picture, the light comes from the extreme left and the extreme right a little to, the rear. The dramatic, third -dimensional effect is obvious. SKILLFUL photographers u a e light in place of the artist's brush. For with light they can cre- ate sharp contrasts, accents and shadows; undesirable features can be eliminated, important points played - up. Above are two victims showing how a subject niay be "painted" by light. The figurine and the camera were kept in fixed positions; only the lights, two of them, were moved. And see 'what happened! The flat, uninteresting representation at the left is, et the right, transformed and enlivened, Form and features have been brought into relief in dramatic fashion. Thepathos bathe pose and expression have been brought out anti'an impression of mystery has been introduced. The picture now speaks and stimulates the imagina- tion to a much greater extent. For the amateur, there is a1 world of fun-' e'xperimenting with light "painting." Figures line this, dolls, toy animals, glass globes, spec- tacles, mirrors, bottles, vases, in- deed any small objects that appeal to your fancy, singly or in group, may be used as subjects. The top of a table wi1l,.serve as your "easel." A portrait attachment for the or- dinary camera's essential, because the pictures must be made at close range in order to give a large image. Behind or on the table arrange .to have a plain background, dark 'or light, depending upon the tone of your subject. For your "paint brushes" two or three photoflood bulbs and cardboard reflectors placed in floor lamps will be sufficient. With these movable lamps around the table you can bring light to bear on your sub- ject from any angle and vary the distance or elevation of one or the other to produce the light and shadow contrasts that you think will be most artistic or striking. Remember, that you have "every- thing under control" and can take Huse to study the effects of the lighting before you snap the camera shutter. - With fixed -focus cameras having relatively slow lenses, and the chrome type of film,' matte time ex- posures. With cameras having fast lenses (f.6.3 or faster) a shorter time exposure (rah. to 1/10 second) for the chrome typo and 1/25 second' snapshot, for the supersensitive type, should produce good results, Of course, nniclydepends on the vol. ume of the light, the number of lights used and their distances from the subject.. Incidentally, it not difficult to devise a spot light. It is . only necessary to use a large card- board into which ,a 2 -inch 'hole has been cut, and hold it between a light and the subject during the exposure. With the rest of the room dark, a spot light gives strong, sharp shad. ows, and if'your .subject lends itself . to such contrast, dramatic effects' may be obtained. el JOHN VAN GUILDER.
