As the term inâ€" dicates, you assemble your picture material on some convenient table or bench, and shoot it from any de- sired angle. “Table-top” pictures are, usually, very much like model stage settings. You may use dolls, toys, statuettes, model airplanes, miniature trains, boatsâ€"Tanything at all that appeals to you.'The point of the whole thing is to arrange your subjects in an in- teresting, realistic, or fantastic fashion, and to light this arrange~ ment so that it makes a good pic- ture. Usually, these pictures are taken at close, range. If your camera can- not be focused for close-ups, use a portrait attachmentâ€"a simple, in- expensive, and highly useful little gadget. There’s no limit to the effects you can achieve. And there’s nothing much more fascinating than work- ing them out. Here are some point- ers that may save you time and trouble: Remember that the only point of view that matters is the point of view of your camera’s lens. Your set-up may appear charming from above or from the side. But don’t let it nw‘sL-I‘u’ you. The camera must be pleased. \Vorking at close range, the depth of focus of your lens is not likely to be great. So keep the elements within as short a distance, front to back, as possible. And the most im- portant feature should be at the point of exact focus. Two table-top pictures. At left, is a tiny cork- and-paper ship given a "Flying Dutchman” aspect by placing it on a pane of glass and PICTURES from underneath. Above, a circus scene made with familiar dolls and toys. If you want to give an effect of deep distance, as in a miniature landscape setâ€"up, place various fi- gures (trees, houses, fences, etc.) in receding planes. The focus will be- come less exact as the distance from the camera increases. A piece of dark cardboard, cut with an irregu- lar edge, laid across the back of the set, will become a range of distant hills. And a big piece of light card- board, set up well back of the rest of the set-up, gives you a good “Sky”- Remember that the enn'ucra’s out- look is wedgeâ€"shepcd nan ow cl use to the lens and widening out as it goes into the distance. ' The greatest fun in this work is playing with light. Sometimes a single strong flood of light will give you what you want. Again, you may want one figure to stand out bril- liantly, with everything else subâ€" dued. To do this, you will have to block off mostrof the light with shirt cardhoards, books, or whatever you need. You’ll get your best efi'ects by working with the lens at its small- est opening. Allow plenty of time â€"anywhere from ten seconds to a minute or two, depending on the amount of light. Too, don’t forget that most films register blue as white, and red as black or dark gray. A white figure against a line background will tend to be lost; similarly, a red figure will not stand out against a dark background. It’s fascinating business, all in all, and. Will repay you well for your patience and ingenuity. JOHN VAN GUILDER. THE LIBERAL, RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO General News and Views All was quiet on the municipal front in Richmond Hill. Reeve Greene and members of his council can now settle right down to another year of good municipal administration The New Year was ushered in quietly in Richmond Hill. Even the Town Bell failed to give its usual wel- come to 1935. And by the way, don’t forget to write it 1935. Over two hundred and fifty joyous skaters skated the old year out and the New Year in at Richmond Hill arena. The popularity of the Rich- mond Hill rink seems continually on the increase. The universal hope is that the year 1935 will be more happy and prosper- ous for the people of Canada than the one just closed. The citizens of Markham and Wood bridge villages vote next Monday on the question of the issuing of beer authorities in these centres. At the close of the Municipality of Aurora’s financial year the treasurer reports that eighty-four per cent of the current year’s taXes has been col- lected and arrears to the extent of $30,000 have also been paid. “I came to complain,” said the young bride, “about that flour you sold to me. It was tough.” “Tough, Madam?” stammered the grocer. “Yes, tough; I made a pic of it and my husband could hardly cut it at all.” Some interesting subjects for dis- cussion are promised for the annual convention of the Ontario Associa- tion of Rural Municipalities on Feb. 19 and 20 at the King Edward Hotel, Toronto. This Association now boasts an affiliation of 138 municipalities, comprising villages and small towns, and more are joining every Week. Some of the questions for dlebate follow: “Rural School Programs,” “Should the Province take over all the County Roads?” “Are municipal councils dwindling into mere tax- eollecting agencies?” Dolubtless these live issues will elicit much in- teresting comment, reflecting the opinion of rural Ontario. The A5- sociation deserves every support in its effort to improve conditions in the rural districts.

Miss Shaver of Bracebridge is spending the holidays with Mrs. C. Norman and Miss Lucy Norman. ‘ A concert will be given in the United Church on Tuesday eve- ning, Jan. 8th, by the Carolina Jubilee Singers. This company is highly spoken of by all who have heard them and it is hoped there will be a good attendance. The regular monthly meeting of the Women’s Institute will be held at the home of Mrs. G. Lawrie on Jan. 9th. The roll call will be responded to with The Worst Predicament I was ever in. Mr. C. W. Manning of Hamilton, one of Maple Old Boys, was heard over that station on New Year’s Eve when he broadcast the greetings from Mount Hamilton Sunday School of which he is Superintendent having over five hundred scholars. A HEALTH SERVICE OF THE CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANIES IN CANADA Mankind seeks security. Lack of security at least means worry and may even lead to disaster. The de- sire for security is so strong that nations are to-day giving up their political freedom because it appears that for them security lies in some form of dictatorship. The demand for security is greater than that for political freedom. The security man seeks is against those things which are beyond his personal controlâ€"unemployment, old age, sickness and death. Through life insurance we havb learned to make economic provision for those who survive the loss of the bread- winner. Through public health de- partments, we have provided a form of mutual insurance against such diseases as can be controlled by com- munity measures. Security against disease lies large- ly in our own hands. We can obtain a large measure of such security by furnishing our responsible health authorities with adequate budgets and then seeing that they are allowed sufficient freedom in spending to en- sure the maximum benefits for those who provide the money. Individually, we gain security against disease by giving reasonable attention to the needs of our bodies through follow'ng the generally ac- cepted principles of healthy living in our daily lives. This implies not so much the avoidance of the undesir- able, but rather the promotion of the desirable habits. The period c health examination of- fers security against disco-re. 3.10s! of the diseascs which afflict us after middle life are insidious in their on- set. By the time they call attention ,to their presence through symptoms lor signs felt or seen by the patient, they are well advanced. In order to prevent the underminâ€" ying of health and the firm establish- :ment 01' chronic .lls‘g' se, of the fatal grasp 01' some progressive malady, early discovery with early treatment is essential. The periodic health ex- amination offers an opportunity for the examining doctor to find the ear- liest signs of abnormal conditions. It is in these enrl'est stages of disease lthat medicine has the most to offer by way of treatment. It is not rather ridiculous to ignore the state of your body untl it begins to fail you in your needs or until cer- tain parts of it become painful ‘.7 Is it not a sensible thing to have your body checked over periodically so as to avoid trouble? Why not attain a greater measure of health security through having a periodic health exâ€" amination.

It robs her of a comeback when her husband kicks about extravagance. VICTORIA SQUARE shortl A l The New Year is here. Iand we will bid adieu to 1035. How much can take place in one short year though so let's chin up, eyes front and; be ready for each (lay as it come..; Already! Salute! At your service 1935! : On Saturday evening over fifty' young people gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Mortson where they enjoyed an evening of progres- sive crokinole and euchre. At the close of the games an address was read to Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Nichols and the newly-married couple were presented with a handsome mantel clock by Mr. Gordon Mortson on be- half of the young people. Lunch was served and prizes given to Mrs. Wilâ€" lows and Miss Pearl Caseley for honours in euchre and crokinole. It being Temperance Sunday, Mrs. Haig brought forth special informaâ€" tion along this line in the Sunday School session. Approximately forty young people took their places in the centre of the church last Sunday afternoon when an installation service for the 1935 executive of the Y.P.S. was conducted by Rev. Mr. Gilbert. The closing Young People’s meet- ing of 1934 was in charge of Fraser Gee, Recreational Convener. After the worship service music was fur- nished by Lorne Mortson and Walter Hill and a. splendid New Year’s mes- sake was given by Vera. Nichols. A reading by Alvin Caseley concluded the evening’s program. Monday evening saw the young peo- ple gathered again, but this time on the ice at Richmond Hill arena. Skat- ing was fine, but we were glad we didn’t have to welcome the New Year that way. Returning to the Sunday School Room beans, pie and coffee engaged our attention for some time. Then our watch night service took us from 1934 to 1935. This included music, readings and a resume of the past year’s activities by Fraser Gee, followed by a. message for the New Year by Rev. F. Gilbert. Everyone PAGE SEVEN A...) When the Grassville Bugle prints gossip about the neighbors, that's hick stuff.
