Phiiotelic News

Easter is an appropriate oc-
casion for considering the
more important values of
stamp collecting. Perhaps they
best may be illustrated by re-
calling a story about King
George v at the start of World
War. I in 1914.
His majesty felt that so
long as the conflict lasted he
would have no leisure for
philately. The burden Of re-
sponsibility which he was
carrying afforded him no time
or strength for activity not re-
lated to the winning Of victory.
So his albums were put away,
and months went by when
thought Of them was banished
from his mind.
Day after day the King
worked at his desk, presided
in council. visited hospitals.
discharged all the multiplicity
of duties incumbent upon him
in a season Of vast emergency.
His whole being was concen-
trated on the supreme task Of
his career. The price was high.
His majesty aged, his coun-
tenance mirrored the tension
to which he was subjected, his
health was affected adversely.
But the King fortunately UNI
derstood what was happening.
One evening he said to his sec
rotary, Bring me one of my
stamp books. I must have
rest"
Found Refreshment
So an album was retrieved
from storage, and the sover--
eign spent a few minutes look
ing over its pages, adding a
few specimens to those already
mounted and making note Of
specimens still to be sought for
accession.
Afterwards, his majesty re-
turned to duty refreshed Of
body. mind and spirit. His
family and his staff rejoiced
to see him so relaxed from the
long ordeal of strain.
Each evening subsequently
the King had recourse to the
same relief, the same good
medicine" of philatelic reerea-
ton. AS long as he lived phi
lately remained a benefit and
q blessing to him.
Meanwhile, thousands Of
other men, hundreds of women.
multitudes of children made
the same discovery: Stamp
collecting, "the worlds favor
lite hobby" helps in time of
stress and trouble. Limited to
no single nation. no race or
creed or class of people, it
ministers to authentic de-
mands of human experience.
A Tracing Of History
And it is natural that this
should be the case. The
postal labels of the past lis
years have pictured every con-
ceivable aspect of civilized
enterprise. All history and all
aspiration are represented In
these little scraps Of colored
paper. Especially is it note
worthy that religion and
philosophy are reflected in
stamps.
Consider for example the
painting of the child at,prayer
in the Red Cross adhesive of
France reproduced herewith.
Nobody knows who created the

Of religion to believers Of all

proves the characterization Of

There are quantities Of

Treat Each Shot Critically
Use other modern methods
to make your album more at
tractive. Consider every pic
ture you take In the future as
a. probable additions to the coll
lection. Try to get the best
possible negatives by careful
planning Of composition and
exposure.
Instead Of lining up the
family In the usual row try to
make your pictures more ap-
pealing by making planned
pictures showing the group in
some casual form Of activity.
This might be a scene made
of the group roasting hot dogs
over a fire. sitting at a picnic
table. canoeing, swimming
anything, as a matter of fact
to get away from the styled
portrait ;. with all staring
solemly into the camera.
Some Unpeopled Scenes
You can prevent your family
album from becoming monot-
onous by including shots of
scenery and other of your ia
forlte pictures that do not
necessarily relate to family
activities. Pets and other ami
mails will help liyen up the for
mat. And while it is quite &C
ceptable to include an oc-
casional portrait Of an indi-
vidual. don't have too many of
the same person.
Another way to improve the
appearance and appeal Of your
album Is the use Of color. This
factor can be introduced
through the occasional use of
color prints. Another way to
do 1t would be to tone some of
the prints In appropriate
colors. Green and blue for
winter and water scenes and
the warmer sepias and gold
tones for summer and fall pic
lures.
