PUNCTUALITY
I leave the dinner dishes
And f.ho kitchen is a mess.
The master has his coat on,
But I’ve just begun to dress.
T hear him race the motor,
Though mv polish isn’t dry;
And nf course. I tear a nvlon
As the precious minutes fly.
Once in the car, I fumble
At the pin curls in my hair.
My comb is in another bag;
My earrings aren’t a pair,
wp’ru breathless as we enter
Precisely on the hour.
(Our hostess has no Unstick on,
Our host is in the shower !D

Silhouettes—lnteresting Outdoors or In
Silhouettes are pictures that are
fun to take once in a while—
whether you do them indoors or
out. They aren t anything one
would substitute for the usual
snapshots of favorite people, but
they are a nice change of pace
the variety that adds spice to our
pictures
The principle is a simple one
indeed. It’s merely a matter of
placing the subject squarely be
tween the light and the camera
Obviously, this isn’t going to
work outdoors on a bright sunny
day It would simply g’ve you a
back-lighted picture So. for out
door silhouettes, it is a matter ot
getting up early or doing youi
picture taking late m the lay
The sun should be low in either
the east or west to produce the
desired effect.
Indoors, a white sheet, a dark
ened room, your subject posed in
profile, and a short time exposure

Quotes
A convention of Republican
Women heard these words Tues
day by President Eisenhower:
"If a political party does not
have its foundation in deter
mination to advance a cause
that is right, then it is not a
political party, it is merely a
conspiracy to seize power.”
The Bi-Racial Southern Reg
ional Council in a letter to state
chamber of commerce presidents
in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana,
Mississippi, North and South
Carolina, and Virginia, wrote:
“Reasonable men and women in
the South are disturbed by the
extremist views which now dom
inate the public life of our reg
ion. Yet these people of good will
are all but voiceless and power
less in the emotional climate
which prevails. Unless this trend
is reversed, the South faces the
prospect of grave economic and
cultural damage.”
"The eyes of the world are
upon the United States,” warned
Bishop Hamlett, at the Winter
Council of Christian Methodist

—these are what you'll need for
"Operation Silhouette ” If you re
shooting indoors in the daytime,
stretch the sheet over a window
so that the sunlight shining
through will*provide a luminous
white background Note that this
will put the light behind the sub
lect and in front of your camera
contrary to the usual rule of
having the light tall on the sub
leot from behind you as you snap
the picture
With voui background all set
up and vour subject in profile
against it, next darken the rest
of the room and prepare to make
a short time exposure As with
almost all picture taking, here’s
a case ot ’no logs allowed" for
camera movement would really
be fatal to the final results This
means, of course, that you’ll have
to place your camera on a tripod
or some other firm support to
hold it steady during exposure.
—John Van Guilder
Episcopal Church. adding “and
its actions of unfairness toward
Negro citizens and others who
have recently taken up citizen
ship in America. We do well to
treat everybody in a fair and
impartial way, for we’ll need all
elements of our citizenship in
event we have to be forced into
a world conflict. My observations
in my recent world tour leads
me to believe that the people of
the world look upon the Negro
visitors ‘at some distance’ when
we advocate the fairness of the
United States attitude toward
Negroes.”
18,00 delegates to the Ameri
can Association of School Ad
ministration heard a committee
on resolutions, in urging fair
play and good will in controver
sial school desegregation issues:
“It is the conviction of the as
sociation that all problems of
integration of our schools are
capable of solution at the state
and local levels by citizens of
intelligence, understanding and
reasonableness working together
in the interest of national unity
for the common good of all. In*
this process, majorities and mi--
norities have both responsibility
and opportunity.”
