Following its reconstruction, Fort York re- mained the main post until. 1841, when the neW fort, later named Stanley , Barracks, was built a short distance to the west. After this date, Fort York gradually fell Into ruin. The City of Toronto began restoration in 1932. Today the Fort is one of the city's finest historic sites. Eight original structures of stone, log and brick have been preserved to show how soldiers lived in the early 1800's. The of- ficers' quarters, wine cellars, vaults, bedrooms, games room and sitting rooms have been carefully refurnished. Canadiana Fop the hie kitchen used after^ 1.3 comes the. aroma WW1 bread.

Ft. $4900 PHOTO FUN Overexposedslide aids creative touch By GILBERT HILL The slightly overexposed slide, the one that appears too light or a bit "washed out" on the screen, is almost ideal for several corrective — and cre- ative — treatments by.a pho- tographer. This is the slide that can be mounted with another, a blue sky with clouds when there wasn't one; a beautiful sun- set, when the sky was actually drab; or a scene which lacks a center of interest. Flying gulls, for instance, can en- hance a beautiful but vacant beach scene. The trick, of course, is to re- move the slide from the paper mount in which it comes and fasten it down on a new mask with adhesive tape — a 'tiny piece well back in the frame. Thert, iOcate,;the" other slide rein` ed #roitirifie indult and fasten it: ' Then, mount the -pa- per mask in glass to create a brand new picture. The same basic technique is used for creating "deriva- tions" and correcting color balance, as well as introduc-' ing "texture" screens. The derivation requires at least some darkroom tech- nique. The slide, removed from the mount, is "printed" on lithographic film — actual- ly made for printers. This particular film produces only the highlights and shadows without middle tones. Since the slide is a positive, the litho is a negative, one which is solid black and very clear. Be sure the black is opaque — by control of expo- sure and development — be- cause the black often is filled with tiny "pin holes" which must be touched out with TSC STORES LIMITED 190 Mitchell Rd.

The black negative is bound, in register, with the. color slide and washes out a the highlights — making them completely black. They must be very good in competitions because it is being done so of- ten these days the "deriva- tions" have lost their novelty. Most photographic stores have, or can get, packets of 2x2 -inch gels in a variety of density and color, which can be used to correct color bal- ance, density, and overall quality. They're used just like another transparency; or litho negative, bound in contact with the slide when it is mounted. TliFtriele 'heVe"fs` to lelect' the right color, and particu- larly the correct density. Try the "weak" colors first .be- cause it is surprising just how little additional is needed to change the whole appearance of the picture. That is, of course, if the purpose is not to turn a daytime picture into a night shot with a deep blue gel. These packages usually contain several "neutral -den- sity" .gels, which are of vary- ing shades of gray, and can be used with almost any slide without changing the colors at all. They simply improve the density and the apparent "saturation" of the colors when the slide is projected. Some unusual effects can be created by using other Mate- rials. A sheet of lens tissue, for instance, will not only in- crease the- density of an over- exposed slide but will make a surprisingly interesting pat- tern when it is bound with a transparency to give the pic- ture "texture." A tissue, plus a color gel to turn the picture red, or yel- low,or blue, will often create a picture that even an artist with a brush cannot possibly duplicate. And, of course, you can .pro- duce your own "gels" by ex- posing ends of color rolls you' need to have developed any- way: Be sure to overexpose, usually at least a stop, to have a slide that won't make your original too dark when it 'is placed over it in the mount. Yes, the slide photographer can be — and often is — very creative. Q. Whitt remedy esn 1 * to -when oilU freTt my SeVdolif spotted fabric machine ., ., which f have beep sewing?.
