The Brussels Post, 1943-1-20, Page 4eaommemoommovearamon C111eSNAPSHOT GUIUJ1 SPRINGTIME PICTURES THE BRUSSELS POST Wednesday, January 20th, 1943 HARNESSING POWER One of the selentitlt, dream+ waic!tl Moeern research is blrnging steadily closer to realization is the capturing of eltergy directly from 'ho sera's rays. The Mapping of even a small Part of the tremendous quantities of solar energy which Hood the earth every day and its harnessing to man's industrial and domestic needs would effeet a complete transforma- tion in the life of every nation. No country would be more pro- ' roundly attested than Canada, With its highly developed industrial as tivities slut with its huge resources of 'both developed and undeveloped mater power. the Dominion has a vital interest in such new sources of energy. Our rivers and waterfalls rank second only to those of the United States in the amount of energy which they generate. mud our utilization of hydro -electric energy on a per capita basis 1s the third highest in the world. Orr tre- mendous national investment is dams and power stations and trans- mission lines might be rendered valueless, 'Scientists have already built at an experimental basis, solar engines which effectively utilize the power In the rays of the sun, though se far they have been unable to solve the practical problem of making this power available at the low cost which would make it a servant of daily life, 'When and if that day comes, it will see a revolutionary change in our present method of re- leasing' stored up solar energy through the burning of coal and oil. These fuels are formed as a result of a natural process whieb, through millions of years, transforms the sunlight originally stored up through the action of chlorophyll, the green stuff in leaves and vegeta•tion.' Science is attacking the mysteries of chlorophyll in the hope that some day elan may be able to . duplicate nature's action and thus produce fuel synthetiicaily from chemicals. Also going on is research based on the application of the so -tolled "thermocouple" principle in convert- ing the sun's rays into electricity. Photoelectricity --already put to many pra.tcical uses by means of the "magic eye" --is also the anbje.ct of hopeful research. Finally, the baste principles involved in releasing the atomic energy potentially available in matter itself are also known and science is engaged in the se?rch for means of putting this limitless source of energy to work in the service of mankind. It may be that future generations will have at their disposal a wealth of power which will dwarf our present output from waterpower, oil and coal, just as these multiply a thousandfold the energy which earlier civilizations had tit their command in the forme of human and animal labour.

NOW is the time to get out your 1 camera and picture the coming of spring—one of the year's best snapshot seasons. The other sea- sons are fine too—but springtime has a special flavor of its own , , , one that is easy to capture with your camera. New spring clothes—these are material for excellent snapshots, indoors or out. Cheerful spring days, more sunshine— these invite walks and hikes and drives, all of which produce good pictures. Even the sudden showers produce oppor- tunities for human -interest shots— folks scurrying for cover, the wet streets as the sun. breaks out again, reflections in the bright clear pud- dles on sidewalks and at the curb, children making mud pies after a brisk rain, or damming up the gut- ter for a pond to float small boats. Indeed, picture material is every- where. It's a grand season to be alive and outdoors, with a camera to record the things you see, and to bring them home "for keeps." In your springtime shooting, yon mustn't overlook the first flowers and blossoms, These can be snapped even with inexpensive cameras. To get effective close-ups, you simply slip a portrait attach- ment on the camera lens --or, for extreme close-ups, a "plus -two" or "plus -three" attachment lens, When using these slip-on lenses, you meas- ure the distance from camera to subject very carefully, to get it just right. But the exposure is ex- actly the same as for any other shot. Reserve a section of your album for springtime snapshots—and see how Well you can 1111 it. New dress, new foliage on the trees, early gar- dening activities, "tidying up" out. side the house and on the lawn, painting, beating carpets, putting up the sereong—these tiro all pia - New clothes and shoes—as well as the first flowers, the first trees to bloom, and general home clean-up— are material for your springtime picture story, It's a chapter worth telling In pictures, tures for the collection, Make a real picture -history of springtime as it affects your family --'-and you'll have' a group o4 snapshots that is well worth while. 2 John van 'Guilder Hockey Slants (By Harris Bell) Wednesday night ciincheil the second doulylelleacler of the sea:;on with Town and Morris playing first game Morris opened the seuring H, Workman scoring.

Mail Must Get Through But Snow -Blocked Roads Late Train Add Worries Have Same Trouble Every Winter, Says Post .Office as Complaints Arrive on Overdue Letters, Papers Tile mail must go through and the mail does go through but sometimes in country sections at this time of Year it goes through a full day late. ,Complaints continue to reach the local post office listing overdue letters and yesterday's newspaper delivered today. Officials said this Is no new headache, they have the same trouble every year, but trains sometimes running hours behind schedule add to their problem, In Western Ontario, rural car- riers, for the most part, have jacked - up trucks and ears for the season and hitched the mare between the shafts of a nutter to make their rounds. Despite the fact a horse can go through snow that would stop any truck, there are tunes and Pieces when they just can't make it. In some oases the carriers have been reported striking across country to avoid low-lying spots on rural roads choked up deep and solid with drifted snow'. -Some of the delay can be laid right at the door of the farmer, local postal officials said. Under the 'Postal ' rules and regulations the rural carriers are not road breakers. In addition they are not supposed to dismount from 'their vehicles. in anany cases through the country, farmers dependon the mailman to break a road ahead of them to the nearest town. On the other hand, few ever think to shovel the snow ,out from around the boxes.
