Even the hint that such cards Don't overlook picnic picture possibilities. Sunday outings and picnics are snapshot time for every snapshooter. More than one picnic photo has won awards in past snapshot contests. You may take the picture that wins highest award in The Tribune Amateur Snapshot Contest.

Pictures taken today may be entered. in the first week's Tribune contest which closes Tuesday evening. Pictures re i Hi -f in The Tribune Amateur Snapshot Contest. RULES OF CONTEST Here are the snapshot contest rules, under which the local contest will be conducted and under which four pictures to be submitted to the National contest are to be selected: 1. Your snapshot mav be made on any type of film, but must not be made on glass-plate negatives.

Any make of camera, film, chemicals or paper may be used. Developing and printing may be done by a photo finisher or the entrant. 2. Pictures must hove been made with the help of the Italian navy they will be able to keep the vital communications with Northern Africa in working order. LONDON TURNS TOWARD HITLER ONCE AGAIN Meanwhile the London government is much concerned about the effects of the new French Socialist regime: British observers fear that I Leon Blum will be forced to radical measures that will let loose a Fascist reaction and start internal trouble that will cripple France as a diplo matic ally for months to come.

So London is looking again toward Berlin. The post-war statesmanship pf France and England has been too timid and of too small a caliber to deal with the overweenin; ambitions of dictators, backed by a population fanaticized through systematic and scientific propaganda. From now on to the 16th day of June the two dynamic individuals who rule Germany and Italy, waxing fat on the frictions and disturbances between France and England, will do their utmost to cut the last frayed bonds that still in a formal way bind England and France to certain policies and nominal obligations. INSIDERS FEAR DUCE WILL FORCE OBEDIENCE Paris insiders who know Mussolini fear it is in his power to make France do his bidding. II Duce is keeping his trumps to the last mo- are in his possession has spread alarm and consternation in the whole of France from Finisterre to the Riviera.

Parisian editors tremble at the horrid vision of Mussolini not only canceling Italy's name from the bond of Locarno, but shaking hands with the man who only a few weeks ago added that treaty to a notorious collection of scraps of paper. France is aware of hints regard' ing the fartireaching participation of German capital in the development of the resources of conquered Ethiopia. AH this information acts on the French nerves like crude salt on open wounds. France begins to feel the full effects of her isolation and is ready to oblige II Duce even at a great cost. But the country is still haunted by its old traditions of political and diplomatic supremacy on tfce European continent and hopes, pathetically enough, that the older Latin sister will respect her historic prerogatives.

So it is no psychological miracle that France precisely at this moment begins to recall "les petits Americains" who 18 years ago were their most popular comrades in arms. The average reader, to his amazement, sees the first page dotted with allusions to the American debt, often accompanied by faint intimations that an attempt might be made to pay at least a part of it. (Copyright, 1936, lor The Tribune.) i ONLY suSSh i Sports pictures offer plenty of chance for the snapshooter to show his ingenuity and skill. It happens to be pole vaulting in this snapshot. Height is accentuated by pointing camera skyward.

The amateur snapshooter will find likely subjects in any swimming party, whether at the old swimming hole or at a metropolitan beach. Here's one taken from an unusual angle, ut it is effective. ACTIVITIES AMONG ceived either at The Tribune office or through drugstores or photo finishers later than Tuesday will be entered in the second week's contest. Be sure an entry blank properly filled out accompanies your entries. PICNIC PICTURE HINTS Here are some hints for taking picnic pictures.

As there is such a variation of light in different locations it is not possible to give any set rule for diaphragm i openings nd shutter speeds. However, if the sun is shining brightly and the picnic party Is partially shaded by surrounding trees the snapshooter with a folding camera should get the correct exposure with the diaphragm opening at f.8 and the shutter speed at 125 of a second. If, however, it is a beach party; no trees near to cast shadows but instead the bright sunlight is blazing down on the party and additional light is reflected from the water and sand. Then what? You could then set the shutter speed for 1100 of a second If neceS' sary to stop any action, and use the Ml diaphragm opening. This set ting of the diaphragm opening and shutter will serve two purposes, First you will have the proper ex posure, and second at 1100 of second It will not be necessary for your subjects to "hold still" when the picture is snapped, If you have a boxcanrwa you would open it to the largest stop for the picture among the trees and the stop fpr the picture at the beach under brilliant sunlight.

SOMETHINGS TO REMEMBER If there is any doubt, always give a little longer exposure. Never allow the sun to shine directly into the lens of your camera or there will be a flare of light on the negative. Avoid prominent straight lines such as telegraph poles and trees and horizons which seem to cut the picture in half. Do not try to crowd too many objects or two much scenery into a picture. Simplicity is the keynote of art in photography.

Two-third lands or two-thirds sky makes far better composition in a landscape photograph than one-half of each. With ordinary cameras fast moving objects should always be photographed with the most rapid shutter speed and the largest lens opening. With that review, here's to more and better pictures for you to enter i UNCLE RAY'S CORNER 4 it may De mat uie kccjjcis uu 1. 1 1 mind being bitten "once in a great while," but their job is one I would not care to have, When rattlers bite, they give forth a deadly poison, and unless there is quick action to take out the poison, death is likely to follow. I was told that the poison glands had not been removed from a single snake in the ft 1 Porhnns the most startling event! A few weeks ago, I saw some rattlesnakes, about a dozen of them.

I stayed out of their readi, never getting closer than six feet, but I was able to study their actions. The snakes were in a kind of arena, in the fine zoo of San Antonio, Texas, and I stood beside a wall a few feet high, looking down at them as they crawled about and rattled. Part of the time, they were rattling as loudly as they could, and some of them drew bafck their heads ready to strike. Down among the snakes were two young men keepojs who walked about as if they had no fear. Both wore leather leggings, which did 'much to guard them.

One keeper held out a red bandanna handkerchief, and a rattler struck it a hard blow, sinking its fangs into the cloth. Mixed in with the rattlesnakes were several bull-snakes, and also some prairie-runners. Out in the world of Nature, bull-snakes and prairie-runners kill and swallow rattlers, but in this arena (where they are supplied with plenty of food) the snakes seemed to be living at peace. In reply to a question, one of the young men said that "now and then" a rattler is eaten by a bull-snake or prairie-runner in the arena, "but not often." "Aren't you afraid of being bitten?" I asked, "It happens to us once in a great while," he replied, "but we use the suction method of caring for the bites, and so far we've always come through all right." of my visit came when Watched a keeper open a glass case irt which two "tame" rattlesnakes, each about six feet long, were kept. "We obtained these snakes about two months ago," he said, "and have taken pains to tame them.

We have done that by great care in handling them." Then he reached in the case, holding a wet cloth in his hand, and "washed the head" of one of the snakes. After that, he took the serpent out and let it crawl to a little pool where it could get a drink. Later the other six-foot rattler was put on the ground so it could obtain a drink. Texas rattlers are among the most "deadly" of those on our continent, but snakes which are deadly enough are found in many regions. It is well to be on our guard against them, especially when walking in the desert, over rocky hills, or the mountains.
