Popeye And .

Some people can see propaganda

the tact remains that it isn't hard
to make the youngsters, eat their

!Maybe too, there is. something in

held, in the light of scientific knowl-
edge. Doubtless Imported. into Bur-

spinach was already wellknown
during the Renassance In the 13th
Century it was regularly hawked in
the sheets of London. In those days,
the plant was prepared by chopping
it up, boiling it and making it into
balls, the liquid being squeezedout
with the hands. Then it was mix-
ed
ixed with batter, oil or vinegar and
thus prepared considered a delicacy,
Today 'the usual method of home
preparation is boiling it whole and
retaining as much of the water as
feasible so ass to be eaten with
butter, peeper and salt. Most
canned spinach, of course, is chop-

ACTION SHOOTING
A subJect such as this will make a good "action sequence"—a series of
pictures showing the complete toss, step by step. Pose your subject In
"slow motion," and It's easy.
ACTION shooting le one of the
moat interesting phases of ama-
teur photography—and good action
pictures can be obtained with any
cainera, if you kuow how,
To "stop" true fast action, and
get sharp pictures, you need a fast
shutter—one that can be adjusted
to 1/400 or 1/500 second. Such a
camera is a wise investment if you
intend to do much shooting of un-
eased
uposed action subjects—you simply
set the shutter for top speed, adjust
the lens opening for correct expos-
ure at that speed, and fire away.
With slower Caeleres, however,
you can still get good action pic-
tures if you pose your subject in
slow motion. Lot him go through the
natural motions of the sport—golf,
tennis, or whatever you choose -but
.have trim trove as slowly as possible,
Then shoot when the action leaks

This trick will work for box cam -
ores, as well as tho many excellent
folding cameras whose shatters ad.

.tend It is marvelously effective It
well done, the picturest'etaining a
genuine appearance or fast action.
Interesting action "sequences"
can be made in the manner Just de-
scribed. For example, a series of
a young woman tossing a beach ball.
Two or three shots of the swing,
each at a different point; a fourth
with the ball barely supported by
bar linger tips; a fifth with her arms
fully extended and the ball out of the
picture. Such a sequence is easily
obtained if the subject goes through
the action very slowly several times
—and it is surprisingly effective
when the pictures are mounted in
proper order in your album.
In all action streeting, take caro
not to become excited, of yon may
prose the shutter release too jerkily
—moving the camera and blurring

tion shot, of a subject that will stay
in ono Naco, it'e often a good idea
to put the camera on a tripod or
sotto other erre support.
Try Your hand at action shots—

that outlined above, It's interesting
photography -and good, Web' ah eta
