Upper right, various cut-outs; keyhole, gothic window, field glasses,

SNAPSHOTS with trick “frames”
are easy to -take, and fun to
show. You can get pictures appar
ently made through keyholes or
field glasses—and many other novel
effects.
Obtain an ordinary cardboard box.
It should be about twelve inches one
way, and eight inches or more the
other two dimensions. Exact size
doesn’t matter. Cut a hole in the
middle of one end, a bit larger than
your camera lens. Cut a large open
ing in the opposite end, and over
this place a large “keyhole” cut out
of cardboard (see drawing above).
It is a good idea to paint the inside
of the box black, to guard against
stray reflections.
Now, place the box on a flrm sup
port, such as a table. Sight through

the small rear opening, and adjust
box until it frames the scene you
want to picture. Line up the camera
with the rear opening, as shown—
and take the picture. Use a small
lens opening, making a “time” ex
posure if the light requires it
For other effects, Just use a dif
ferent cutout, such as those shown
। above. Make cut-outs with simple
, outlines. When you use a mask box
। twelve inches long, a cut-out open
ing about six inches high or wide is
• usually satisfactory. After your first
• roll of pictures, you can tell if larger
; or smaller masks are preferable.
Since the cut-out masks are close
: to the lens, they will be somewhat
; out-of-focus and "fuzzy.” This helps
conceal the faking, and adds to the

Unusual Dog-Drawn Transportation
An unusual dog-drawn transports
tation service operated in Alaska
about 1900. At times, says Col
lier’s Weekly, a train would consist
of 24 eight-foot sledges, tied end to
end, pulled by 350 Eskimo dogs,
harnessed two abreast. The crew
of 30 men worked in two shifts,
one sleeping while tha ot^er pa
trolled the lint of animals, which
was a half mile long.

Ole Bornemann Bull (1810-80) Nor
wegian violin virtuoso, was the most
famous bearer of the name Ole. He
financed a Norwegian colony in
Pennsylvania, but it failed, and the
castle he built tnere came to be
called “Ole Bull’s Fplly.” His play
ing won him great renown.

‘The American’s Creed’
“The American’s Creed,” by Wil
liam Tyler Page, is: “I believe in
the United States of America as a
government of the people, by the
people, for the people; whose just
powers are derived from the con
sent of the governed; a democracy
in a republic; a sovereign nation of
many sovereign states; a perfect
union, one and inseparable; estab
lished upon those principles of free
dom, equality, justice and humanity
for which American patriots sacri
ficed their lives and fortunes. I
therefore believe it is my duty to
my country to love it; to support its
Constitution; to obey its laws; to
respect its flag, and to defend it
against all enemies."
‘A Pretty Kettle of Fish'
In the old days, a kettle, or “kid
dle,” was a fence placed in a stream
to trap fish. When full, it presented
a lively spectacle of leaping fish,
weeds, and driftwood; pretty—but
rather a mix-up. Hence it was that
the saying, “a pretty kettle of fish,”
came to be used for any muddled
up or confused state of affairs, and
•ve use it in that sense.
Weu older Mates
The Otomacos, a savage clay-eat
ing tribe of Indians dwelling in the
Orinoco forests of central Venezue

marriage custom. Whenever possi

to old widowers and the boys to el
derly widows.

Economics News
Thursday, the Home Economics
girls of the Elmodel High School pre
sented a Fashion Show at the usual
chapel hour.
Miss Hunter had written a short
play that called for models; this was
used and the dresses made by the girls
were modeled.
Three girls received honorable men
tion on their dresses from Miss Hunt
er, Wessie Dell Wiley, Doris Brunson
and Dorothy Powell. Wessie Dell
Wiley modeled a flowered chartreuse
Bemberg sheer; Doris Brunson mod
eled a silk Japonica Shantung, that
featured a wide girdle laced with
chartreuse velvet ribbon. Dorothy
Powell modeled a lovely printed shan
tung with an unusual neckline and
sleeves.
Giraffe Influenced Fashions
In 1829 the first giraffe came to
Paris and it was immediately taken
up by fashion and reproduced in
hats, dresses, ornaments and deco
rations. A little later the first chim
panzee arrived and the satme thing
happened. Paris costumes were de
signed “a la Jocko,” and the fad
spread rapidly.
