larger and consequently much faster lens on a miniature camera chan would be practicable on the average size camera. The small size, the ul- tra.faEt lens combined with new ex- tra.fast film. make it possible to snap pictures under conditions which are difficult for larger cameras with slower lenses.
 You can carry a minnie" around in your pocket snd whip it out for any occasion. With good judgment for correct exposure you can make snapshots on the stage of theater. in D night club, ct prize fight or at night on brightly illuminated street.
 Miniature camera negatives must, of course. be enlarged to obtain prints satisfactory to look at. Some miniature cameras use 35-mm. mo- ton picture size film and give up to 36 pictures to the roll; others use somewhat larger sizes. 8 or 16 pic. lures to a roll. Owing to the rela. lively low cost of the small-sized film, the expense per picture for average size enlargements is not much greater than a contact print from the larger film used in a cam. era of ordinary size.
 The technique Of taking pictures with miniature is not much differ. ent from that with the ordinary fo- cusing camera, but there is yalu- able point to remember. Because of its light weight and small size, 1t is more difficult to hold miniature camera steady. Since sharp mega tives are essential in this work steadiness is Of prime importance.

JUVENILE COURT
 POWER STRESSED
Specific Case of Girl Under l6 Determined By .AttOr-
 ney General

Attorney General Edward J. Daly, in an opinion addressed to Caroline DeFord Penniman, superintendent of Long Lane Farm, has stated that a juvenile court has the power to commit girl to the State Farm for Women if she be 16 years or over. even If the offenses for which she is charged occurred prior to her be- coming of observation-disclosures coming 18.
 Taking into consideration the fact that the State Farm for Women IS fo rthose over 16, and the Long Lane Farm restricted to those under l6, Miss Pennniman had sought in formation in regard to a specific case. The girl had been committed to the State Farm although her of lenses were made before she was 16.
 The opinion comments that as- suming the juvenile court had proper jurisdiction, it could not commit the girl to Long Lane Farm since under the provisions of section 686c of the Cumulative Supplement to the General Statutes, only girls under 16 can be committed there.
 Assistant Attorney General Rich ard F. Corkey wrote the opinion.

Only 95 Of 22O
 Are Given Interviews
WPA Staff From New Haven TabnIates First Days Check-Up-S6 of These Are EmplOyabIes

e report released at the department of welfare office this morning, there were 56 who were classified as "em- ployables." It Is understood, inci- dentally, that the lse of the word "employable" in these cases stretch es the meaning of the term to its utmost extremity. For many of the people who reported yesterday and were classified as "employables were actually not 1t for any kind of hard manual labor. The term ''em- ployable" apparently means, in the WPA survey terminOlogy, anyone who can get around and do some kind of light work.
 Out of the 56 classified there were 25 women. In the cases of the wom- en 1t is believed that they could qualify for work relief on sewing or book binding projects, if they are finally taken on the roles when the statewide survey is completed. Un- less there are some new projects started which call for only the light est kind of labor, however, the men have little chance of working on some of the painting and sewer jobs which constitute the bulk of local WPA labor for males.
 It was explained this morning that those persons who failed to re- port yesterday, through some mis- understanding, will be given another chance at being interviewed some time in the near future. Several el- derly men and women, who had ap- parently been confused as to the exact date of the interviews, turned up at the aldermanic chambers this morning and had to be directed to the welfare department office in the basement of the City Hall.

T>HE frequent appearance in maga. \ zines and newspapers of strik. Ing "off-guard" snapshots of promi- nent persons, such as society folk dining in a restaurant, or "series shots" of the changing expressions of an after-dinner speaker, prompts from many readers the question. How were these pictures taken" The answer in the case of many of these pictures is the high.speed, large liens miniature camera and the new ultra-fast film. which in combination often make possible snapshots at night without extra il. lumination of the subject.
 The use of miniature cameras, not alone for "off-guard" photography but for daytime portrait studies and "scenics' of which they are also highly capable, has grown with startling speed. Films are available that are especially suited to this kind of work. These pocket-size but powerful, precision.built cameras seem to have for many the fascina- ton of the high-powered automobile and are bought despite their higher cost, because you can so places with them."
 Just what Is a high-speed mlnia- ture camera? Essentially 1t is very sail roli.film camera with a very large aperture lens such as one rated at f.2. The exposure required with an $2 lens is only 10th of that Aeeded for the f6.3 lens which is pensidered . '.fast" lens on the ordi- ny amateur camera.
 Without going into tue technical reasons, 1t is possible to use Q much .t.
