the most important and, 6 hardest

Look what you're asking it to
do. In the first place, it's got to

And, in addition to starting the
car and keeping its lights shining
brightly and safely, you're asking
it to run your radio, your horn, your
cigar lighter and a lot of other
extra equipment. And your spark-
plugs and distributor points are
probably so dirty it’s a wonder the
battery can function at all.
Winter is a tough time for bat-

Aside from disease, poor posture
seems to cause parents more worry
than any defect of children. For
that reason I want to stress again
one step in the treat-
ment of poor posture
which every mother
can take. I refer to|
good nutrition.

the bones were not held together by!
figaments and tendons, they, too,
jwould drop to the ground.
. Now ligaments and tendons re-
jceive their strength from the food
eat. But if that food is lack-
ing in elements that give strength,
tissues become flabby and weak.
n that condition, they stretch un-
the weight of the body. Of

ligaments, and a slouchy pos-

The correction is found in proper

CTeSNAPSHOT GUIL
OUR GOOD FRIEND WINTER
Winter brings
many picture
opportunities.
LD Man Winter may not be pop-
ular with everybody but, as an
inexhaustible inventor of opportuni-
ties for taking beautiful pictures,
he is certainly a good friend of ama-
teur photographers. Remember that
with his tools of snow and wind, he
is a landscape artist, painter, etcher,
‘and sculptor of the first order. Re-
member also that his handiwork is
~ fleeting, so do not fail to have your
lcamera ever ready to take pictures
before the opportunities are gone.
Each snowfall creates new sub-
jects for picture taking, for you
will find that each time the snow
mantle is put on differently, chang-
ing the landscape to obliterate some
features on one occasion, bringing
them into relief on another, giving
a peculiar charm to objects that do
not attract attention in other sea-
sons, and often displaying weird or
fantastic snow formations, never to
be exactly repeated.
_ These magic changes of scenery
make winter a stapshooter’s parva-
dise. Long shadows cn the white
snow add beauty and interest to
many a scene. Such a simple thing
as a picket fence casting its serried
outline over a curving snowdrift
that it has helped to build nay
make a photograph of “Winter” that
any salon would be proud to ex-
hibit. The lone pine tree, sitting in
a graceful howl of snow the wind has
moulded around its base, fantastic
ices on the hill tops, the driffed
the weather-blackened old
ed against a white hillside
—these suggest but a few of the
picture taking opportunities which
winter offers for the camera owner.
Then, too, there are the human
interest pictures of winter sports—
action shots of skiing, sliding, skat-
ing, and ice boat racing—not to for-
get Sally, Pal and the snow hut
1 they so laboriously hollowed out of
the great drift in the yard. Chances
like these prove a source of joy to
those clever enough to shoot at the
right moment and with the right ex-
posurs and focus. i
ter, many think that becaus? snow.
is white, they shouid not be sc long
ag in summer, but remember on the
other hand that light ia not 80 strong
in winter. The old rule--expose for
the shadows and let the highlights
take care of themselves—works:
fully as 'well for snow pictures un-
der mos#t couditiong., When, how-
ever, vou wish ty take a picture to
emphasize shadows, ag in the case
of the picket fence, a sky Sflter,
placed upside down on the lens (that:
is, yellow part at the bottom) so.
that the Ught from the snow will
be subdued in passing through
should reproduce them even better
with no loss of detail in other parts,
of the picture. {
So put on the galoshes and the.
muffler after the next snowfall, and.
wade out with your camera. With a/
little thought to composition, you
will come back with a “picture no’
artist can paint” and more than
one. |

Visit Doctor Often
If You Are Over 40
Man Who Has Regular Exams
inations Need Not Worry
By Dr. John 'L. Rice |
Commissioner of Health
' New York City
No matter how busy you are you
usually find time to see to it
your automobile is kept in repair.
You would never think of starting
out if your aute-
mobile brakes,
motor or gears
were not fune~
tioning properly.
And, if you are 8
. prudent man
every now and
then, usually at
stated periods,
FQ) you have your
Dr. John L. Rice °3T inspected by
a service special-
ist. This you do for safety to life
and limb.
But, how about your body? Has
it ever occurred to you that you
should have it checked up at least
once every year? How do you
know whether or not your vital
organs are functioning properly?
The periodic health examination at
the hands of your family doctor
wil give you a complete inventory
of your bodily machinery; it will
tell you if any “caution or stop”
signals are to be heeded and what
‘other “repairs” are needed.
The man who submits himself to
his family doctor for regular ex-
amination will rarely need to
worry about his health. His phy-
sician will advise the proper diet,
exercise, recreation, ete. If his ad- "
vice is followed much trouble may
be averted; many serious condi-
tions can be halted in their early
stages. Preventive medicine is the
best of all medicines. Resolve to-
day to try it. Telephone your fam-
ily doctor for an examination.
