Perhaps you have noticed how
a dog who acquires a bone or
something else dear to the canine
heart struts back and forth in the
presence Of dogs which have no
such food. I have noticed that
they specially like to do this when
they are free and the other dogs
are shut in kennel yards or tied
Small children exhibit the same
trait when they strut in front of
school window where one of
their playmates has been kept
after school. With dogs, as with
these children, it is a sign of ma
licious mischief.
Often I have noticed around my
own kennel how a newly let-out
dog will gallop tantalizingly
around the outside enjoying his
own liberty and reminding the less
lucky dogs that they are prisoners
This action is always the signal
for the imprisoned dogs to fly into

Ihaters" of the world had their way

more than is million people

More than is million men and

and activities connected with dogs.
The figures may seem to you at
first glance a bit steep. But they
are not. Consider the dogshow in

hundred kennels. Consider the
thousands of workers in the man
Iufacture and distribution of dog
foods. Then there are the farmers
whose entire product is bought for
such food. You can go on with
a list of beneficiaries to an endless
extent until more than is mil

ative estimate.
I feed my dogs a lot of eggs
Perhaps more than the average
dog owner because I keep a flock
i of chickens. From the time my
dogs are pups, I feed them eggs
broken into. a dish with the shells
crushed and mixed in. Because OF
their lime content, the crushed
shells are good for a dogs bone
development.
Many dogs will eat the mixture
the first time after they are full
grown. On the other hand, many
dogs won't. They lick up the egg
itself and refuse to touch the
shell. However. try mixing shell
and all in with your dogs food
whenever you give him an egg.

feet exposure for one object in

other portions of the picture not
subject to this critical light an
alysis may be relatively over or
Iunderexposed. Ordinarily this
will make little difference If the
main object is important.
Brightness Range Method.
Now let's take a look at the
third method for computing eX-
Iposure with the light meter. This
lis known as the brightneSs-range
method and is used largely when
taking medium shots where no
one object is of primary import
ance. BY this method we try to
hit a happy medium of exposure
between the lightest and darkest
objects in the scene. If we base
the exposure on the darkest area
|of the scene the lighter areas will
be relatively overexposed and If
the exposure is governed by a
reading of the lighter areas the
darker portions will be under ex-
posed with a consequent loss OF
detail in the shadows.
To get the best possible ex-
Iposure from an overall standpoint
we first make a closeup meter
reading of the darkest object ir
the scene. Then we make a similar
closeup reading of the lightest
object in the scene. Now split the
difference between the two meter
readings and the resulting expo.
sure will be the best obtainable.
While we are on the subject, We
should mention the fact that you
can make substitute readings
where it is impractical to take a
reading on the object itself. Fol
example, a reading made of the
palm of your hand will make q
good substitute reading for an eX-
posure of a persons face. And a
reading made of one tree will give
you the same result as would q

have done fine needlework as a

Sweden's Infant Mortality Rate
Lowest On Record In The World

The belief that premature chill
dren run a greater risk of becom-
ing handicapped in later life than
fully developed babies has been
shown by DR.. Ingvar Aim, Swed-
ish physician, to be erroneous. In
a survey covering 1000 cases of
males born in Sweden during the
years 1902-1921, DR.. Aim has found
that unless the premature infant
is MANNED at birth, it runs no
greater hazards of being physically
or mentally handicapped than any
other child, and if it escapes the
risks of the first year and a half
when infectious diseases con
stitute the greatest danger-it has
every chance of becoming just as
healthy as an originally better de-
veloped child.
Some of his findings are: IS
per cent of the 1000 cases under
his observation, at the time of
entering military service, have
been found without physical or
mental handicaps and have man.

Swedish Infant Mortality Rate
Lowest on Record
Thanks to very comprehensive
population statistics, begun in
1749, Sweden has access to unique
records covering two hundred
years of detailed information on
the infant death rate, i. e. the
mortality of children less than
one year old. This figure remained
fairly constant at twenty per
cent until 1900. and thereafter
gradually decreased to about ten
per cent in 1900. In the last half
century there has been a still
more spectacular decline so that
the figure for infant mortality in
