Not all localities which

see q Government mint fol-
low. II there ever was a Sec
ton which deserved a branch

litical considerations were
adverse.
The Mormons attempted
to set up an independent
church state. The United
States Government sent an
expeditionary force against
it. Later its private cur
rency printing plates were
seized by the United States
marshal for "counterfeiting."
These conditions effectively

Grandma used to have q
trick when she had put too
much salt in the Sunday
gravy. She added a pinch or
two Of flour to absorb the
excess salty flavor. And, in a
sense, that's exactly what ex-
perienced photographers do
every time they put a filter on
their camera.
The salt" in this case Is
usually excess blue, because
regular black and white film
"sees" more blue than the
human eye. In other words.
the blue from the sky reg
listers more heavily - or
darker ON the n egative
(which means lighter on the
PRINT than when you OBJ
served 1t. This means that
in the picture, you can
hardly see where clouds be-
gin and clouds leave OF.
The flour" in this instance
Is a filter-usually just a sim
pie, inexpensive, medium yell
low filter. 1t will absorb the
extra intense blue light be-
fore 1t reaches the film.
Thus in your scenic photos
subjects will print and look
about as you originally saw
them-with darker skies and
nice. plump real looking
clouds.
In addition to medium
yellow filters. there are
other filters for various eff
fects Red filters, which per-
NIT dramatic contrasts. will
give you pure white clouds
against a very deep sky.
Deep yellow filters will pro-
duce almost as dramatic eff.
fects. Green filters are USE
full for outdoor black and
white picture taking. They
produce fiattering skin tones,
for informal portraits. and
prevent green foliage ircm
having a sickly. washed out
appearance.
Still another handy filter
and one that's especially
useful for making color
photos as we'll as the mono
chrome variety-is q haze
penetrating filter. AS it's
name suggests. this filter
helps eliminate the blue haze
in distant scenics. 1t may
also be used to cut down the
blues in shadows and skin
tones of closer subjects.
Filters are made in many
sizes to 1T most cameras.
They merely slip in place
over the lens, usually by
means Of an adapter ring
which screws or clamps on
the lens mount of your
camera.
Next time you go on a
picture taking expedition
carry a filter or two along
and try them out. Then
