W In Passing By ILL my readers please be advised that my stock of pictures for the supplements which are now so much a part of this journal, has run very low indeed. I would invite portraits of all kinds, groups, white background pictures, etc. The kind of paper used for the prints is immaterial, though the smooth-surfaced papers give the engravers the least trouble. Often, however, the smooth surfaced papers do not give the effect the photographer is seeking, so we have trained our engravers to give us good half-tones from almost any kind of a print. I Na week or two, there will begin in this journal a series of articles on Commercial Photography. There will be twenty-three chapters in all, profusely illustrated and practically every phase of the work that the commercial photographer is called upon to do will be discussed. George Hance is the author of the series and he is known to most of my readers through his former connection with the Eastman School. These articles will be of particular value to the portrait photographer who every now and then is called upon to undertake some work which is outside of his special province but which spells good money to him if he knows how to tackle the problem. At the conclusion of the series, they will be published in book form. HE Flood Fund is growing apace. A recent contributor is the Photographer's Association of America, which through its board of officers has given $400.00 to this very worthy object. Before you read this, several of the worst hit among the flood sufferers will have been given substantial aid, and thus given an opportunity to again earn a livelihood by photography. I do not want my readers to think that the need for funds has passed, however. There are yet many cases to be attended to and the generosity of our photographers is not yet exhausted, I am sure. The total funds at the disposal of the committee are a little over $2500.00 at this writing, but as there are yet thousands of photographers who have yet to hear of the fund and who will receive notices through current stock house organs, it is hoped and expected that another thousand dollars will be added to the fund. Again I would ask that, if any of my readers are aware of any case that requires the aid of the committee, they notify either this office or Mr. Dozer, at Bucyrus, Ohio. |
