Trial & Error A few years ago. my chief complaint was the earner a. Eve rytime that I thought maybe - or Just perhaps - that I had mastered the Insulting, hu miliating little piece of machi nery, h would knock me cold and I would have no picture. When Ruth Wells came to work for me, I handed her the camera. She said, "What do you want me to do with this thing, I have never used a camera in my life." The answer was, "Oh there is nothin g to it, all you do is make pictures." I wouldn't have dared tell her how many times Thad been em barrassed when I came back from a big meeting with no pictures, or the people were standing on their heads. I didn't eves tell her about the time I came back and opened the ca mera and there were no film in the darn thing. I must say that Ruth took the camera, mastered it and has had a wonderful time with It. I think she had gotten to the point that she looked at me with misgivings when I would casual ly comment that I didn't under stand the thing. But is her face red now?? She covered the Jaycee Pa geant and the Miss Vet Pa geant which are two of the ni cest events of the year at which to show off your ability with the camera. She came home elated telling about the beauty of the girls and Miss North Carolina. "Justwait until you see the pictures," she said. What happened, NQ PIC TURES. I will have to^take up ^^^^^^though It gavenae some trouble with the hjtterles and the flash and the camera were not synchronizing - I don't lmowwnat that means, but it sould like a good word.

The Idea was conceived last sj>rlng when there seemed to exist a real need to create an atomosphere of a relaxing nature. The pri mary purposes were to provide music in the corridors for the students who arrive early and to create a relaxed situation in the school cafeteria. It has proved much more effective than had been anticipated and now by request of the per sonnel of the school and stu dents the enjoyment is extended into periodic parts of the day. Research shows that Back ground Music has been included in many of our progres sive schools from California to Vermont. Universities from Texas to North Dakato have installed Background Music systems for a variety of ap plications. It Is used in all types of educational insti tutions.
