First, throw away your lens cap and purchase an ultraviolet filter. The filter will protect the lens and enhance the picture—and you won't be able to goof by leaving the lens cap on. Stay with. one type of film—color or black and white— so you can learn its capabilities, This gives you much more uniformity in your results, Although some modern automatic cameras remove much of the “scientific” aspects of photography, they should still be used with’ discrimina- tion, D ‘ Most auch cameras have a + manual override which can be used in’ situations such as shooting into the aun when the automatic will not work proper- ly. Before leaving on your trip, get your dealer to show you bow to use the manual over- le. If, you ‘are. like ‘amateur * photographers and leave your camera ina bedroom closet or drawer over a long, period of time, snap the shutter a few times before using the camera to ensure against stick- ing parts.

Not very far. The AA: preamble states, “The ‘only requirement for membership is adesire to stop drinking.” And that is an individual decision.

Yet they have experienced many symptoms of ‘aleoholism typical of the skid- row alcoholic. There is no difference as “far as AA membership is concerned, Both types are alcoholics... However, those who have community are often referred to as “high bottom” alcoholics, whereas those who have been hospitalized. and »jailed, lost .- — : family and job, are called “low bottom". alcoholics, The ‘difference between the two categories is that a taste of the horror of alcoholism * has been more than enough to convinee the high bottom alcoholic that he has a problem with alcohol. The low-bottom alcoholic needsa little more persuasion— hospitalization, jail, dismissals, divorce court, ete. Unfortun- ately, some alcoholics are never convinced, They are toa mental hospital,.some. with permanent brain damage. Or peri die.
