DO YOU have a nose for news and an eye for pictures? Can you recognize a newsworthy event in your neighborhood and tell the story with your camera? If the answer is "Yes" to both those questions, or even it it's only "Maybe," you're wanted on the newsfront immedi- ately. Your assignment is to make news pictures of activities at home to send to the boys in service. Actually, there's probably little that pleases any service man more then to receive snapshots which are really news pictures of fresh and interesting things that are happen- ing at home. For instance, a picture of dad shoveling out the snow - choked driveway would make a line home news photo. Likewise a »IC - taro of sister in her new winter outfit would be interesting. And a snapshot showing the children build- ing a snowman, or blasting away from a "tort" during a snowball fight would be welcome to any loan tar from hoine, * You see, you don't have to have spectacular news subjects in the true newspaper sense to make pic- tures which will be "newsy" to your soldier, sailor, or airman. First of all, they want pictures of their family, friends, and home, and after that all they ask is to be kept posted pictorially on the new and interest- ing happenings about home. However, here's a tip. Service men like the personal touch in their snapshots, so when picturing a gen- eral scene include some member 01 the :family, or a close friend, And remember, when slaking your "news pictures," that it's the things with which your service man is person- ally acquainted which will give him the greatest lift. Try it, and you'll find that cover- ing the hoine news Trout, photo- graphically, will give both you and Pam service man a real thrill, , 7 3oltn van Guilder
