went about her and clung.
"Janet, darling!" cried Gordon. He
was' trembling. "You can't have gut
over loving me, Janet! Please say
you haven't." , Gordon, swept out o;.
himself at least, was kissing her with
an abandon 'which Janet found pecu-
liarly revolting. .
"If you have no objections, Keo,"
murmured a cool, self-contained voice
behind them, "I'•ll do all the kissing

Gordon with a violent start drop-

igndn zin nmaly , scatted. Toa].y looked
at Janet. There was a gleam in his
blue eyes which terrified. her.
"As you' reminded me, I haven't
made leave to you," he said. "This to,

He swept her into, his arms'. He
held her as if she were a 'small help-
less kitten: He kissed, her not once,
but three tinea, as thoroughly as he
did everything else, and Janet realiz-
ed that she knee 'nothing' in the
world about being kissed. '
"I trust that's . satisfactory," he
murmured.

that he might follow in. his father's

infantry. He sae- the war from be-

discovering his knack for handling
the innumerable reports which' were
a specialty of the German army. In
post-war Munich, his conservative,
faruner's mentality 'revolted against
the Communists who then ruled Bav-
aria and the gravitated to the circle
growing arovvd Adolf • Hitler. There
began. the abject hero-worship which
has lasted through the years.
In the early days, Nazi meetings
were frequently broken, up by a hail
;of 'Communist brickbats. Hitler con-
ceived- ,the idea of organizing• a' spe-
cial group of strong-arm men outfit-
ted with heavy canes•=a "protective
corps or Schutzstaffel. Himmler join-
ed, primarily to be, near the Fuhrer
whenever he spoke, and with'meth-
odical thorgelghness made this corps
a vote -getting machine second to
none. The -intelligence section ' of
his Schutzstaffel eharted the politi-
cal sentiment of every •locality • in
Bavaria.' • T,he propaganda , •squad ,de-
luged the doubtful with fiery rhetoric,
—the disciplinary colulmgns, beat up ac-
tive opponents. Nazi representation
in the Reichstag began to, grow.
By 192e, when Himmler' became
commander of the Schutzstaffel, he
had 100,000 well -armed, trained .men,
completely loyal to Hitler and him-
self. And when he became a mem-
ber of the Reichstag . the • following
year,' he had every important anti -
Nazi shadowed by his S.S. men, and
compiled the proscription. lists which
were executed with such dispatch on
the night of the Reichstag fire, some
three years' later. The efficiency
with which the Weimar Republic was
lurjslattedt, htivouaands 'arrested, . and
police stations' all over the Reich oc-
cupied by fire S.S. was perhaps, the
outstanding revolutionary feat in his-
tory.

2. Both pictures are needed to tell the `follow -the -leader" story.
In a sequence of this sort, it sel-
dom matters which picture you
take first. Often you can take one
shot, and that will give you the
idea for a series of pictures—
pos-sibly all preceding the original pic-
ture. The final order of such a pic-
ture -sequence is worked out when
you, paste the harious shots in your
album.
Nearly every good subject de-
serves more than one picture, and
it's unwise to assume that your'
first picture is the best, that can be
obtained. Frequently • a different
angle, or a different camera posi-
tion, 'will yield a second shot that
is better, Ib. movie -making, it's a

"ONE subject, one picture," is the
formula that many amateur
photographers use; but it often
happens that more than one shot is
needed, to tell the story, or make
the subject as, interesting as possi-
ble.
The truth is, very few snapshots
are complete in themselves. One
shot presents just one . phase—it
serves as an introdn'bticn, but a sec-
ond or';third shot is often required
4o clear up all the details and round
out the picture idea.
Sometimes a second shot helps
to explain the first ' and make it
more pointed. Consider the pictures
above, as a good example. The low-
er one is an excellent action snap --
I'd be glad to have It in my album.
But the upper one really makes the
story complete—it points u` i the
"fellow -the -leader" ideas,, atnd ex-
plains why the dog Is diving. Each
' picture helps reinforce the effect of
the other, and together they' supply
the kernel of an mrtiisifg pita`taIa
sequence.
