The story of the war photogra-

James Hare, who Is best known as
Jimmy Hare; William Dinwiddfe,
John F. Bass and Robert Lee Dunn.
Ricalton, who is more than sixty
years of age, returned not long ago |
from a foot trip through Africa One !
OF his most striking achievements is |
a series of views showing BURSTING |
shells photographed at close proXim- |

Japanese war.

Dunn was the man who scored
many beats in this same war by

hanging on the heels of the japanese
army all the way into Manchuria.
In order to reach Liao-Yang be

city. Hare ran away from the Jap

food supplies. and no hope of secur-
ing them en- route, he started cheer
fully forth on an overland journey
of al least four days duration. He
could have stuffed enough bareback
and chocolate into his saddle bags,
but he needed the room for his films
and Photographic supplies. And he
reached his objective point. as any
photographer is expected TO do,
"Hare's latest exploit was the
photographing of New York's sky

the most hazardous form of travel
for the modern photographer; but
ballooning along the seacoast is &C
counted extremely dangerous.

Saving money is very much like
getting married, easier after YOU
have made the start than YOU
thought it would be Many men
hesitate to marry because they
fear their ability To liveup to the
expectations of some good WON
an, and in many cases their fears
are we'll grounded SO, too,
many men and women earning
fair incomes delay starting a saw
ngs account, fearing they may
rot be able to keep it up regularly,
when the very truth is, that the
start is the very strongest pOss-
ible incentive to continue and
once the account is opened, it is
surprising how it grows, and how
much JOY there is in going with
out many things yon formerly
thought you really must have IN
order to see that bank account
grow. You have an incentive
which was heretofore absent.
This bank meets every needed
requirement. Money on deposit
