She hears servants whispering and senses tension when her /loather asks her father for money before her bridge ,game with the Dorsays - and David. .Anne adores her beauti- ful mother, Elinor, and her fa - their, Francois; and she had al- ways liked and trusted their old friend David. Yet in is David about whom the servants are wilit pering. ''l, Vicky, Annie's com- panion, is aware of the situation, too. Anne steals away to meet Garry Brooks in the 'moonlight and they meet a strange man at a campfire.

Purchase Seed Potatoes Now It will not only be patriotic but very gond buanwss on the part of Ontario farmers to acquire their villa ply of certified seed potatoes now for next year's planting, stale officials of tah" Ontario Department of Agricial- ture. Trhis is one crop, they point out, where production can begreatly in- creas'ed without increasing acreage. by simply planting certified seed of good varieties. Statistics show that Ontario normalcy grows 150,000 acres of potatoes. With every farmer using certified' seed, the saane number of acres would yield much larger crops. in rens, canes certified seed has been known to inorease yields 100 bushels per acre over nor.-oeetified sed, ex- periments .have shown. J. T. Casein. potato expert of the Ontario Department of Agricultbre, states 200,000 bushels of Ontario pot- atoes leave passed inspection for cer- tification this fall. He points out that 'dealers can hardly be blamed for purchasing these potatoes for table use, and advise that farmers should purchase seed requirements now while they may be obtained at reas- onable price. There are about eight millions of persons of 65 years or over in Can- ada and the United States. This number is about 6 per cent, of the total populations, yet fully one-quarter of the 110,000 annual fatal accident - fatalities in the two countries are s micmg .persons who 'have reached or passed • their 65th birthday.

An- other experiment conducted some years ago showed the presence of many weed seed's in snow -thirty-two screeds of nine species of weeds bav- ing been found in two square feet of a snow drift. Many weed seedis are eaten by birds during the late fall and early winter wthem other food is not p'lend3fuL These seeds will not lose their vital- ity and may be carried long distances in this way. Neglected fall weeds will spread, plant disease, gather and held snow, clog ditches and thus hinder thie flow of water. They are dangerous from a fire standpoint and are a source of infestation to the entire community. Many Ontario fields are infested right now with Wild Carrot, Toad Flax, Ragweed, etc. They should be mown at once, raked up and burned and the infested area brought into the crop rotation. Seeds of neglected weeds growing in vacant lots, around buildings, fence lines and on banks of rivers', small streams and ditches may be carried long distances by spring floods. By cleaning up and burning all neglected weeds at this time the ap- pearance of property is greatly im- proved. Whether you live in the -city, town or country, you can do your bit to cut down crop losses due to weeds, states Mr. MacLeod. It is a patriotic duty to clean up thie weed menace. persons of 65 or over are falai on floors, on stairs and on the street.

The red "A" filter makes skies quite dark; is good for special effects. DO YO17 use color filters in your picture taking? It's surprising the effect these little gadgets have in improving the quality of snap- shots -and they're worth a try for anybody who wants to make his pic- tures better. With the right filters you can obtain more desirable rendering of colored subjects in your black -and - white shots ... retain clouds in out- door pictures ... darken skies for dramatic interest ... even obtain beautiful moonlight effects on water scenes in the daytime! If yours is a box camera or inex- pensive folding model, you should have a filter which, is medium yellow in color. This may be described ply as a "color filter," or by the num- ber "X-2." If you use a finer camera with anastigmat lens, you should also have a "G" filter (deep yellow) and an "A" filter (light red) ; but if you decide to get -just one filter at the start, choose the medlnm yellow. Each of these filters produces a different effect. The medium yellow or K-2 is a "correetlon" filter. Pic- tures taken through it shots an im- proved 'rendering of tone iralues, compared to shots taken Withont a{ filter. Clouds,• stand out, just about as the eye saw them in the original scene. And all colored objects are reproduced more nearly in their cor- rect relative brightnesses, The "0" and "A" are "contrast" filters, forfbpecial effects. The "0" darkens a blue sky considerably, and is useful for dramatic renderings. The "A" filter darkens blue still more -so that, for example, a white - building can be made to stand out against an almost black sky in a pic- ture. These filters also lighten ob- jects of their own colors, making them appear brighter -than -normal in the print. Each filter calls for some increase' in exposure, depending on the film you use. Instructions covering this point are generally packed with the filter, and are quite. easy to follow. An exposure factor of 2, for example, simply means to double the expo- sure. This Would be accomplished by using the next larger lens open- ing-such pening-such as, f/8 instead of f/11. Filters are simple to use . . , ankd1 can add materially to the gsalit t' sad interest of your pidteres. Na camera hobbyist's kit is complete without them. 254 John van G41111dei Et
