Don't place a single flower

is important. it Is not as diff
flcult as you might suppose.
Most anyone can make an
attractive grouping Of flowers.
Simplicity should be the key
note. If you have any doubts,
start out with a simple arrange
ment with perhaps only one
flower. Often a single bloom
of striking beauty will stand on
its own merits. Then try three.
five, or even seven or more
together. Even numbers
usually have the effect Of
dividing the interest in a

Camera Angles

For some time ahead there
will be a profusion OF domestic
and wild flowers. available to
the photographer who enjoys
making still life pictures. Few
things are so easy to photo
graph as flowers.
There Is little question as to
which Is the best kind OF cam
era for still life photography.
A bellows camera with ground
glass for critical focusing and
composing is undeniably best
suited for flower photography.
On the other hand, we do
not mean to discourage those
who have other types OF
cameras.
Even beginners should have
little or no trouble taking pic
lures of flowers. AS men
toned, there is no problem OF
stopping motion nor do we
have to frame or compose on
a moving object. And lighting
can be fully under control OF
the cameraman. Since there
will be no need for haste there
will be plenty Of time to figure
exposure and properly adjust
aperture and shutter speed. In
fact every step Of still life
photography can be exact to
the nth degree with no fuss or
bother or other distractions.
Although artificial light can
be used you will probably do
lot better with natural light.
In the first place natural light
is soft, while great care will
have to be taken to prevent
harsh shadows from upsetting
the delicate appeal of flowers
If lamps are used. Floods,
which throw out much heat.
are apt to wilt many types Of
flowers after several minutes
exposure to the hot glare.
When using natural light
avoid direct sunlight which
also casts unbecoming shad-
ows. Instead make your set-up
near a window inside the
house.
Shadows Of any depth are to
be avoided in flower photogra-
ply. Some will result from
intervening petals and foliage
and toward the bottom Of any
flower arrangement q notice
able amount Of shadow will
gather. Always use reflector
to tighten or I'LL in the shad-
ows--never a flood lamp.
What about the back
ground? Always select q back
ground that Is absolutely
plain. Others would be sure to
detract attention from your
floral arrangement. Even plain
backgrounds must be picked
with care. One that Is black
will contrast too greatly with
the blossoms, while q white
background win tend 10 blend
with the flowers. When choos-
ing q background for black
and white shots pick one that
is gray or a color that will
photograph as a neutral gray
tone. With color fllm IN the
camera select a fitting color
that under no circumstances
should be so strong as to COM
pete with the flowers for at
tention.
A vase is another thing to
keep out Of the actual picture
composition. It too win COM
pete for attention, particularly
If it Is In the least bit ornate Of
fancy.
Wire or porcelain frogs
are generally most acceptable
for flower photography.

Secularisln In
Public Schools

BOSTON -(NC)- An authority
of 80 years experience in child
guidance has warned here that
more and more godlessnesS is
being introduced into our public
schools"
Mother Mary of ST. Urban, di-
rector of the House of Good Shep-
herd, Catholic guidance center
here, told the 23rd annual Com
munion breakfast of the Sen Flu
Mission Club that "a child who has
no reverence for God and what
He represents will also ignore all
types of law and order, including
his parents"
Mother Urban said she agreed
with the theory that poverty and
neglect of religion in the home
were the two factors contributing
most to juvenile delinquency.
In a comparison of young delin-
quents today and those of years
ago, Mother Urban said that years
ago youngsters generally realized
they were SHINING against God and
society and, in the majority of
cases, their repentance was hum
BILE and sincere" but that nova
days lawless conduct is taken more
or less for granted and is consider
ed smart"

PEACE OF MIND

One of the great wonders that
converts find in the Church is the
peace of mind they get in Comics
sion. 1t is one of the most wonder
full feelings that a person troubled
by lot of personal difficulties
can find on earth. The crowds of
penitents standing in line any time
that Confessions are being heard is
a sight that has brought many hun.
dreds into the true Church and
many thousands back to the prac-
tice OF their religion with a much
lighter step.
SUDDEN THOUGHT

if you get job hanging out no

FOR WOMEN ONLY
All right boys. if you must read
this; it is about your sisters vo-
cation. Women are badly wanted
in converts and hospitals. Of
course the daily-double is voca-
tions to a nursing sisterhood, but
we aren't looking for miracles.
Many schools are in dire need of
teaching Sisters, and many hos.
pitals are awaiting wonderful an
gels of mercy who are qualified
nurses who want to embrace the
religious life. If you can't join up,
Join with the people who are pray
ing that thousands of young La
dies will follow either of these
two most honored professions this
year. They really are ladies in uni
form.
A TWIST
1t would be great If a person
could get grass to grow under his
feet; he would be the envy of
some people who can't get it to
grow anywhere.
PAY YOUR OWN WAY
Hitch hiking is here again, and
here is the old warning. Keep out
of strangers cars. II isn't smart to
take a chance. Your virtue is more
precious than your arches. Let
them fall.
ON THE SPOT
You are bound to leave an i'm

place long enough.
CALLING ALL CARS

car call for family trouble. All of
the time il isn't because daddy
comes home between two friends.
All too often some of the children
are the cause of the explosion.
Let's take it easy this Spring.
Peace. it is wonderful.
SaerannenfsIs
Too often we forget about the
great power connected with hav-
ing a beautiful statue or picture
of the saints. Each one of us
ought to get a priced possession
in this department, so it can be
part of our background the rest of
our lives. This year you could set
your sights on a truly wonderful
picture or statue of the Mother of
God and set it up as your special
treasure for life. II will help you
lot and be an inspiration TO all
who see it, even after your death.
In Praise of "Hot.Rodderx"
Perhaps you have scoffed at the
boys who spend endless months
converting old cars into dream
boats. Then, too, you may have
thought that all "ht-rodders" want
TO kill themselves through speed.
Such is not the case. Many Of the
boys have given all kinds of proof
that they are gentlemen and skill
ful mechanics. Some of the boys
have formed clubs pledged to help
distressed motorists who get into
trouble on the highway. They don't
get dime for their help and blush
when they are praised. Auto manu-
factures owe much to the lads who
have developed many an idea for
the safety Of others.

their work of cultivation of a
habitual awareness of God, giving
meaning, purpose and dignity to

.'Non-public schools have an
opportunity which the public

persons who believe sincerely that,
with all their devotion to ethical
and spiritual values, and with all
their integrity in dealing with

THE SAINTS OF THE WEEK
BS FATHER GABRIEL HAFFORD

May First is a double-header, for
1t is the feast of StS. Philip and
James. Both were Apostles, and
both were very important men.
Philip was the special friend of
st. Andrew, and James was related
to Christ. 1t is significant that the
Reds have chosen May First as
their special day, for they will
never have two such great men as
apostles of godlessness. We should
pray both of our Apostles to hasten
Christ's reign in Russia. II is COM

something about it by praying it
sooner.
POWER OF KNOWLEDGE
When you get acquainted with

shape of his head and the color of
his cheeks don't matter.
MARY'S MONTH
This is the great month during
Marian Year. You could make it
really great by attempting to at
tend Holy Mass daily and by re-
ceiving Holy Communion each time
you attend Mass. Usually we want
something of a challenge before
we get up head Of steam. Accept
this one and you will be doing
something that will please God,
honor Mary and greatly improve
your own spiritual complexion.
One of Americas most notori-
Gus gamblers is quoted by one of

bling is a great game to stay out
of. He ought to know, for he is

even get rich slowly, so why don't
you slip some of your change into
