Sunset pictures add interest to your snapshot abum

By all means wait until there are clouds, for you will find that the clouds make the picture" No set rule can be made on the exposure time for sunset pictures
 but generally you will get a prop
 erly exposed negative if you set the
 diaphragm at f.16 and the shutter speed at HOO of a second. This setting of the diaphragm and shut
 ter depends much on, the bright
 ness of your setting sun.
 Believe it or not, attractive
 moonlight" scenes can be made
 by sunlihgt. This is best done dur ing the sunset hour and when
 there are masses of clouds floating in the western sky which create lighting conditions favorable for
 picturing moonlight" scenes. The sun can be wholly or partially ob-
 scured and if the lihgt is red, yell
 low or orange a snapshot exposure
 with a medium stop opening can be given.
 To secure a night effect from a
 negative exposed in this manner, 1t
 must be printed long enough so
 that all. but the highlights will be
 dark. If you don't do your own
 printing explain what effect you want to your finisher.
 You will get let of pleasure
 taking these pictures and the re- suit will be we'll worth your time JOHN VAN BUILDER.

Did you ever stop to realize how considerate Mother Nature is of the amateur photographer? Month after month she changes the ap- pearance of landscapes, trees, shrubs and even the skies, giving us something new to snap almost every day.
 She is now slowly shifting her scenery and preparing for her au- fumn display of new flowers, col .orful foliage and last but not least beautiful clouded skies to serve us with fascinating backgrounds for landscapes and sunset snapshots.
 Don't overlook the opportunity to capture a few of these beauti- bum. They add interest to your picture collections and usually bring that highly prized remark from your friends-"There's a beautiful picture. How did you take it?"
 An artistic sunset picture possi- bility is not waiting for you every night in the week so don't rush out tho door after reading this and expect to get one. Maybe you will but 1t is doubtful. A good sunset picture is just one of those things you watch and wait for.
 You will find that a foreground of water or a background of hills will add much 10 the interest and artistic appearance of your sunset.

Schools of the city must remain closed indefinitely and children under 14 years of age must be de- nied entrance to theaters, play grounds and Sunday schools as the result of vote passed late yester- day afternoon by the board of healt'l commissioners at special meeting. As a result of the health departm action, the park de- partmeit was enforcing the new rule today in all sections of the city, and theater managers and directors of other places of amuse- mont ir the ctiy were on their watch to comply with the emer- gency law.
 The board of health, presided over by Dr. A. J. Jackson, at It's meeting declared that an emergen- cy exists and took advantage of the clause in the city charter which gives 1t mandatory powers in in- stances where epidemics aer feared. The vote was passed because of the continued spread of infantile paralysis in Waterbury.
 Today there were no new cases reported here put late yesterday afternoon there were two more vic- tins admitted to the. isolation wards of the local hospitals. This makes q total of 36 cases in Wa terbury since the outbreak of the disease on July 10.
 Obligations to enforce the health departments ruling barring chill dren under IA years of age from theaters and other crowded places of amusement were placed upon the shoulders of parents and man. agers of the amusement places alike. Commissioner J. Francis Smith made the motion declaring that an emergency exists in the city and 1t was immediately sec onded and passed.
 Health Officer Dr. F. J. Godfrey stated today that there Is no epi- demic in the city but that the ac- ton of the board yesterday was taken to prevent an epidemic from occurring. sIn the 1881 epidemic more than 100 cases of infantile paralysis were found in Waterbury. There are now only 24 active cases in the city.

ATTACKS FATHER,
 GETS JAIL TERM
Kazinler VaIaitis Given Three Months for Beat
 ing Aged Parent

Charged with beating and kick ing his aged father last week, Kaz- inner valaitis, s6, of s65 Highland avenue. was sentenced to three months in jail by Judge Edward Mascc'o in city court today. The senS-sece was imposed after the father, speaking in Lithuanian in . cracked whisper that could be heard for but foot or two. told the court that as a result of the beating by his son he had suffered hemorrhage which caused par Alysls of the vocal cords.
 The father testified that 1t was It least the fifth time that the son had assaulted him. He knew, he claimed, of no reason for the at- tacks. Last week, the parent said, Kazimer struck him with his fists, knocked him down, and then, while he lay prostrate, kicked him in the neck and stomach.
 Yesterday the father complained of the attack to Prosecuting Attor- ney John D. Thoms, and a warrant tor Kazimer's arrest was issued. He was arrested last night.
 The son admitted the assualt but claimed that nagging by his father had led to the attack.
 "Do you think, asked Judge Mascolo," that anything he said to you, no matter how bad, was reason enough for hitting him and then kicking him."
 1T lost my temper" said the ac- cused.
 "Three monts in jail," said the judge matter -of-factly.
