PAGE TWO Home Economics Teachers Organize For Group Study Exchange of Ideas Ex pected to Prove .Very i Beneficial On Wednesday, August 30, the Home Economics teachers of Curri tuck, Pasquotank, Perquimans and Chowan counties met with Mrs. Helen B. Harrell in Hertford for the purpose of organizing for group study during the year. The following officers were elected: Mrs. Helen B. Harrell, chairman; Mrs. Evelyn B. Creekmore, secretary and treasurer; Miss Josephine Grant, reporter. Plans for the year were discussed and. the group chose as its theme Professional Growth and Develop ment. It was decided that the group meet once each month, discussing each time some phase of the theme. Each meeting will be held in a different school, thus giving each of the teach ers an opportunity to see all of the home economics departments in this area. It is believed that these meet ings will enable an exchange of ideas which wifll prove to be most beneficial to the group. The September meet ing will be held at Central High School in Elizabeth City with Mrs. Floy G. Gamer. Reception At Colerain For Lieut.-Gov. Horton Mr. and Mrs. L. D. Perry and Mr. and Mrs. W. E.

XITHEN someone mentions bird ' ’ and animal pictures, most ot us think of zoos, forests, or the African jungle. But—if you live on or neat a farm—you have access to a number of fine animal subjects. And take my word for It, domestic animals yielQ just as good pictures as wild ones. Just for the fun ot it, why not spend a day picturing farm animals? Go after expressive, human-interest sho*;, such as a hen mothering her brood, or pigs struggling for position at the trough. Shoot close-ups of a placid, cud-chewing cow, or a husky work-horse —just as if you were tak ing pictures ot a person. *lan> ani mals have definite, almost-human expressions at times . and they’ll make fine pictures for youi album. Distant shots, showing the animal small, will be disappointing unless it happens to he an incidental figure in a scenic. Most focusing cameras Dr. Hines Will Resume Practice In Edenton Dr. J. C.

C., THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1939 are adjusted to take subjects as near as six feet—many four feet, or even less. Many box cameras can be set for subjects as near as five. And, if you slip a portrait attachment on the camera lens, you can get even closer. Or, you can take a shot at normal distance, and have the best part of the negative enlarged to give a close-up effect. It’s not necessary to show all of a large animal, such as a cow or horse. Indeed, the head alone often makes a better picture. Choose the viewpoint which shows the head and expression most effectively and fire awa'y. Keep the background sim ple—changing your position when necessary to get distracting objects out ot the camera’s field of view. Take your camera to the farm ... keep your eyes open... shoot wisely and often. You’ll find that any well stocked barnyard yields splendid picture dividends.
