H. V. Kaltenbom, the distinguished foreign correspondent and radio news commentator whose keen reporting of European affairs won him a national reputation almost overnight, was awarded two honorary degrees at commencement ceremonies this spring. He received the degree of Doctor of More Humane Letters from Hamilton College, Clinton, N. ¥., on June 12, and a week later the University of Wisconsin, at Madison, Wis., conferred on him the degree of Doctor of Laws. Adventures All Over the World To look at Mr. Kaltenbom, no one would think that this scholarly gentleman was an adventurer. Yet when he dashed out on a Spanish battlefield and made the first on-the-scene broadcast of an actual battle, his action was typical of his entire life. He was in a tight spot, with shells bursting nearby and bullets whizzing past him, but he was as calm ■ and collected as he is at home. And his resourcefulness and courage carried him through, just As , they had many times before. ! For twenty years a foreign cor- 1

DIESEI. MOTOR CAR j VISITS HERE SATURDAY Last Saturday afternoon, a Diesel school’s experimental car stopped at several places s n Syracuse and the operation of the Diesel motor was explained io spectators. The car, one of the few automobiles which are operated in the country today by Diesel motors, is consistant of the 1.500 pound motor mounted on an Auburn body and chassis. The motor ?s very unique in that it has no fan, no carbuerator, no magneto, no spark plugs and lacks several other minor parts that the ordinary av.to motor inquires. The start’ng ignition is one of 24 volts and will start the car easily in both hot or

CfcSNAPSUOT CUILIk PICTURES AT BEACH AND POOL '4R In taking pictures at the beach, remember that sunlit sand and open water are quite bright. Be careful not to overexpose.

SWIMMING pools and bathing beaches are busy places in the ' summer time—and wherever there is activity, there’s a field for your eamera. Since you find a lot of rapid action at these places, the finer camera with fast lens and rapid shutter provides definite advantages. But if >ou use a trusty inexpensive box camera, you’ll find plenty to occupy it, too. Among the things to picture are beach games, water sports, diving, children at play, sand castles, shadow patterns on rippled sand, and — at the lake or the seashore—scenic views and sunsets. The chief thing to remember, In taking pictures at the beach, is that sunlit sand and open ißttei are extremely bright Therefore, exposures can be shorter than when snapping pictures Inland. With “chrome” type film, 1/50-second shutter speed at f. 16 lens opening Is sufficient for a beach scenic, and 1/50 second at f.ll suffices for average shots of individuals and small groups. These, of course, are “sunny-day” exposures—on cloudy-bright days, use the

cold weather. This motor has been driven 35,000 miles and has never been overhauled. Being one of the several experimental cars owned by the school, this car is driven by two representatives of the school through several of the states. This car is operated cit fuel oil which is more economical than other fuel and upon test runs of 3,200 miles, only $7.00 of fuel was used. On the average through traffic, the motor will average 30 miles to the gallop. Free information regarding the motors may be obtained by writing to the Hemphill Diesel School, at either, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Memphis, or Vancouver, B. O.

next larger lens opening. With a box camera, on a sunny day, use the large lens opening for shots of individuals and groups, and the small lens opening for scenic views. For shots of fast action, the fine camera is best —but you can also get good pictures with a box camera, if you are alert for momentary pauses in the action. These occur in most games or sports. Naturally, they don’t happen during a dive—so with a slow camera you’ll have to pose the diving pictures. Your subject can halt on the end of the board, in proper position to “take off”—and if he does it realistically) the picture will be about as interesting as a genuine action picture. If you possess a finer miniature camera in the 35-millimeter or No. 828 sise, by all means take a roil or two of full-color film along when yon go to the beach or pool. Bright beach umbrellas, vivid costumes, blue water, and golden sand make these places ideal for full-color photography. And today, it’s just about as easy to use full-color film as to take pictures In black-and-white. John van Guilder

Mr. and Mrs. Charles Cook of North Manchester were- the Sunday evening guests of Mr. and Mrs. Z. James Beyers. How Women in Their 40’s Can Attract Men Here’s good adviee for a woman during her rtiange (usually from 38 to 52), who fears she’U lose her appeal to men, who worries about hot flashes, loss of pep, disay spells, upset nerves and moody spells.
