The advent of this past Monday
opened the Goth annual carnival

partment. This is always a ter
rifle affair here and certainly one
place of fun and excitement. The
program here this year is the
biggest and best ever. Every

We would suggest that you hop
in your automobile and ride
down and "smoke things over"
and we'll guarantee that you'll
be there for the closing of the
gates. Come out and support your
firemen = they look mighty good
when the smoke starts rollin' out
your windows ha! And you
know, you might win one of those
snazzy new automobiles if you'd
just take chance.

Compensates for Changes
This somewhat more versa
tile box camera win allow the
photographer to compensate
for changes in lighting or &C
ton conditions. For example,
If the sun is shining during
one exposure and the lens and
shutter settings are Just right
for this condition considering
the type Of film being used.
another lens-shutter combina-
ton can be used to provide a
correct exposure If the sun
should be obscured by a cloud.
Likewise the operator can in
crease the shutter speed from
a slow setting to q fast one
when necessary to stop mo-
ton.
Many. modern box cameras
have the additional feature of
being adaptable for use with
flash lamps. This means that
a f1ashgun may be attached
to the box camera and the
lamp will fire when the shut
ter is released allowing pic
lures to be made as well as
snapshots that would other
wise be out Of the question
