Hallowe'en is really an autumn festival of the old world but péasant superstition robbed the holiday of its original meaning and surrounded it with the delightful mystery of ghosts, witches, spirits and hobgob- lins, Through all its varistions it still . retains its place in Canadian life as a night for grotesque, gay costumes ~--and parties; and when parties arein order your caniera should play a prominent and important part in the festivities, : A Hallowe' en party simply isn't a success without some of the tradi: tional games. It would be like cele: brating Christmas without some refs _erence to Santa Claus. One of the games extremely popular with the Apple." Isn't such a picture as the one above well worth taking? Jimmie has succeeded in capturing the bob- bing fruit from the tub of water and what a pioture it makes. It's very simple to snap such a pleture if you have a camera with an f.6.3 lens or faster, It is advisable too to use super sensitive panchromatic film when making snapshots at night. Here is what you do. Firat of all you will need two or three Photo: flood bulbs; These lights are similar in appearance to the ordinary elec- trie light bulb used in lighting your home, They are inexpensive and can be purchased from almost any store selling photographic supplies, Place an ordinary floor lamp about threo feet to the the left of your subjects br 'slightly forward. Tilt the, shade _ upwards so the light fully {lumi nates your scens, In the same posi: on tion place another lamp to the right of your "apple bobbers.". Hee dia: oy Piger's outot it.

By the light from the ordinary bulbs in your lamps you can locate your subject in the finder. After set- ting the distance or footage scale at the proper distance set the dia- phragm at 7.6.3 and the shutter speed at 1/26 of a gecond--the cam- era loaded with a super sensitive film. Now you can replace the ordi- nary light bulbs with the brilliant Photoflood lamps, turn them on and you are ready for:your picture. Be sure that the lamps do not show. A shutter speed of 1/26, of a sec- ond will not stop much action so have the one who gets the apple hold a position for just' an instant, such as that of the boy in the above pic- ture, und zip=you have made a snap- shot at night. Tgn't that simple enough? ; i ; If you have a box camera you will - neéd a Photoflash bulb, Set your camera for a timé exposure. For a time exposure you ghould place your camera on 4 table or a firm kupport' of some kind for &ny movement of the camera may cause a blurred pic: ture, even though the flash of these ' lamps lasts but 1/60 of a second. _ After locating ydur subjects in the finder place a Phatoflash bulb in a floor lamp at your side and slightly forward but wit iin arm's reach: Tilt the shade the same as described above, Now--opeti the shutter of your camera, and switch on the cur- rent, After the flagh close the shut: ter immediately, It is not nec: y to have all the lights ont in thé room when taking a Photoflash picture, but do not have bright lights near the subject or any lights shinin into the lens of the camera.
