of your stand-in are dissimilar.
you can only make general
arrangement Of the lights for
high or low key, as you may
prefer. Later on, with the aid
of a mirror. you can have your
assistant make the final adjust
ment of the lights. And don't
overlook the matter of back
ground. This should be plain
a wall or hung blanket will do
nicely.
Use Mirror to Check
Now that you have your
stand-in in position and the
preliminary lighting arranged,
place the camera Con a tripod
in position, focus and stop down
the lens as far as possible to
take care of any slight differ
ence in position that you may
take when the switch is made.
With this done you are now
ready for the final act. Change
places with your helper. who
should now stand near the cam
era and hold a mirror as close
to the lens as possible so that
you can study the pose and
lighting for any final changes.
If the assistant is familiar with
photography you can have him
check the focus, to be on the
safe side. Il the lights need
moving to better suit your fea-
lures, direct their placement
and make a final check in the
mirror.
With all this behind you, all
you need do is study your re-
f1ection in the mirror until you
are satisfied with your express
sion. Then give a prearranged
signal to the assistant, such as
raising a finger (Which is not in
the picture) to make the ex-
posure.
If you are one Of those shy
individuals who would like to
keep all this a deep, dark secret,
you can make your own portrait
with the aid of mechanical con-
trivancs, although it will prob
ably take a bit longer. You will
need a dressmakers dummy or
some other object to focus on.
The mirror can only be of in
cidental help for it will have to
be hung on a wall for your final
observations. If your camera can
be operated by cable release, you
will need an extra long one. This
you hold in your hand and
make the exposure yourself at
the right instant - again using
the mirror as a guide.
Delayed Action Release
Some cameras are equipped
with a delayed-action shutter
which allows time interval to
elapSe between activation and
final release. With one of these
you will have time to run from
the camera and take up your
position before the shutter
clicks. To be sure, this won't
give you much time to assume
a placid expression but if you
try this a number of times with
the camera empty you should

deathbed letter from the late Sem

THANK God for Eisenhower.
The letter was written in April,
1851. Mrs. Luce said. This was
shortly before Senator Vanden-
berg's death. At that time Gen.
Eisenhower was supreme COM
mander in Western Europe.
Mrs. Luce disclosed the contents
of the letter at speeches in Flint
and Royal Oak yesterday and last
night.
She said the letter was never

berg, jr., the Senator's son and
one of the key men in the Eisen-
hover campaign, gave it to her
when she attended his fathers
funeral.
Mrs. Luce told the meetings last
night that she filed the letter away
and did not recall it until her
secretary found it this week and
called it to her attention again.
In the letter, Senator Vanden-
berg, the Republican champion of
an American bipartisan foreign
policy, wrote:
But what a mess our
blessed Nation Is in!" he wrote.

the security of others!
THANK God for Eisenhower.

ton of Republican responsibility,
which I hope may continue. We
must not let the country down.

Vandenberg was apparently in an
swer to one Of her own to the
