@. Is Revere silver considered beauti-
full as we'll as valuable?-O. L. K
A. Revere was the greatest early
American silversmith At 10 he took
over his fathers business. Most of the
Revere silver now in existence was either
of his manufacture or made under his
personal supervision. The design was
based on English Georgian style of the
18th century, characterized by greater
simplicity of decoration and beauty of
proportion than is usually found in Eng
lish work. The Revere silver is equal to
the best plate of any country of that
period. The tea and coffee sets are
among the finest examples of any period
of the silversmith's art.
@. What city is called the German
Florence?-E. r. M.

tages it offers

athletic competitions, and those who
do so are taught the value of alternat-
ing rest with exercise.
Adolescents have a great store of
power and energy which can be tapped
when they need it. But they don't
willingly tap it except for something
they are interested in and want to do.
Nellie is too tired to wash the dishes
but ready and able to dance all night;
John can nun 100 yards in ten seconds
- but walking to the shoemaker's
with Fathers worn-out shoes is too
exhausting.
Life consists of effort and rest,
tension and relaxation. and both are
necessary to normal living. Students
as class do not suffer from overwork
any more than from overrelaxation.

Its the biggest moment of my life,
DeTingforth. I'm going to memorize
every single one of your clippings"
By this time, l was so indignant l
was ready to act. No matter how big
a skunk Mr.. DuQuesne had been, the
deal he was getting was much too raw.
But before could yell to Berry to be-
have herself. she was back on the Job

"And, Derringforth, won't you

memorable for me by standing over

But please - please. turn your back,
Derringforth? I'm so moved that, if
you keep on looking at me, l know
I'll break down"
Apparently. MIR. DuQuesne could
not get out of the habit of believing
everything girl told him.
He had just gargled to that place
where the words 20 Sole Mo" are
hung on the top of the ladder, when
there was loud crash. followed by a
choking sound. and then by number
ofremarks never intended for a lecture
platform.
Immediately after, the front door

Domestic animals in general offer
few real camera difficulties, for you
can photograph them where the light
is right. Open shade, on bright day
will be found best. AS for shutter speed,
Gf your camera has variable speeds),
you'll need at least rs of second,
or faster. to catch feeting poses and
expressions. Unless the light is very
good. work with the lens wide open.
And use modern, color sensitive
film. You'll need all the detail you
can get and the utmost in monochrome
color value.
Tie Snopskootsr Asks:
Question: In my efforts to snap
portrait "close-xts" Of faces, the fea-
t~res come oxt harsh, and the shadows
about them are black and unpleasant.
What is the trouble? IN. c. K.)
Answer: The trouble is the result of
a contrasting lighting A more pleas
ing result is obtained in the shade
rather than in bright sunlight. A snap
shot of l/25 at f6.3 or f5.6 will
probably suffice in shade not too
deep. With slower lens, place the
camera on firm support and give
time exposure of one-half to one
second with stop + %, which approx
mates the middle stop of box camera.

alley? Fine! Shoot it! What
y (vill the Society for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals say? They will be
delighted - providing. of course, you
do your shooting with camera.
The procedure for shooting cats of
the home variety with camera is, in
Ia much modified form, the same as
shooting cats of the jungle with gun.
You have to stalk your game, sneak
|up on them when they are not looking
- and shoot.
Shoot and trust to luck, if you will.
You may get whale of good picture.
But the first requisite for getting
good snapshots of cats in interesting
poses and doing interesting things is
In abundant supply of Jobs patience.
If You must stuff your kitten into
p boot. shoe. or vase. 60 ahead; at
east that is one way to make him
at1y put" Such a picture may be
considered cute" by some. but it's
bafe to bet that the kitten won't think
much OF it.
Cats are not actors; consequently
they are ideal subjects for the amateur
photographer who wants naturalness,
life and appeal in his snapshots. There
lis no special formula for successfully
photographing them; nor is there any
ideal spot or location. Wherever Tom
pr his sister momentarily feels at
,ome. that is the place to have your

Anybody brought up with older
sisters would certainly have got the
idea when Berry made this last COM
ment.
Growing perceptibly sweeter and
sweeter. she added, You must teach
me how to gargle just as you do,
DeTingforth. Please let me hear you
gargle once more"
Mr.. Duquesne must have been
brought up without sisters, because
he did not hesitate to gargle.
Its so beautiful, Derringforth.
Do you suppose you could gargle Santa
Lucia?"
Many time had heard the voices
of my sisters in their natural state
and also when entertaining callers.
And. just as imitation maple syrup
is sweeter than the genuine article, l
had learned, even at an early age, just
what it meant when their voices got
so sugary it made you want to 20
away and eat sour apple
Mr.. Duquesne gargled all of Santa
Lucia and, by request, repeated the
chorus

DerTingforth. Suppose you could do
that bit from II Tyosatove? I'd never
forget it,

because of the sore spot than because
of an unexpected sympathy couldn't
help feeling for poor Mr.. Duquesne,
as he finally finished the Pilgrims
Chorus.
And the way he made his next
remark showed he had not only swal-
lowed the hook. but he was asking
for more.
