DO YOUR CHRISTMAS SHOOTING EARLY Though the calendar tells us Christmas is still months away, our suggestion to you today is to do your Christmas shooting early! That’s because summer is a snapshooting season that just naturally abounds in opportuni ties for excellent pictures. The places you visit on weekends or longer vacation trips, the pleas ures of outdoor living and leisure hours, the children at play—any and all of these may give you an outstanding shot that could easily 1 make a distinctive photographic greeting for you and the family to send out next Christmas. We think practically everyone would agree that the most indi vidual, the most personal Christ mas card is a photographic one. Wherever you go this summer, there’ll be plenty of picture in spiration at every turn. Vacation trips can take you to museums, historic churches and distinguish ed old houses. And from places such as these your camera can THURSDAY. OCTOBER 4. 1956 — ■"■■■■ 1 ■■ 7 During the last few weeks, the Navy Recruiting Service has un dergone a great rush of enlist ments due to the increase of applications from high school graduates, sa'd Chief Petty Of ficer Martin J. Lawrence, of the Phoenix Navy Recruting Sta tion today. However, he added, the increase has in no way pre vented the Navy from continu ing its present policy of un limited enlistment. Any man between 17 and 31 who is physi cally and mentally qualified will be accepted into the Navy. Chief Petty Officer Lawrence went on to sav that the Navy is making a big drive for its soecialized programs in the Naval Aviation and Electronics branches of the Navy. Special attention is also being given to * those who can qualify under the High School Graduates Pro gram which insures the volun teer a Navy School training. If you lend a friend five dol lars and you never see him again, it’s worth it.—Judge. Drink nothing without seeing it, sign nothing without reading , it.—Spanish proverb. help you bring back a fine pic ture of an art treasure, a pictur esque steeple, a gracious old doorway or a huge Colonial brick fireplace. Remember, any of these can express your own personal message of “peace on earth, good will to men” attractively and in a most dramatic way. If it’s a landscape that catches your fancy, you can assure a qnemorable picture by studying it in your viewfinder and selecting a small section of it carefully. Concentrate on a big tree, or a curving hill, a stream winding through the valley, or an inlet in the shore line. If there’s just too much for one view, plan on divid ing the scene. Take several shots, concentrating on one main fea ture of the landscape in each pic ture. So we say—whatever the sub ject and whatever the scene keep your Christmas card in mind when you do your summer snapshooting. —John Van Guilder
