study Of Photography, with less than Onefhird Of
gRid time devoted to its attainment, was employed
as Reporter for the United States Board Of Gains
TIE faithful teaching OF Ar J. Dolbear, Of Nash
VILE and the study and practice Of the concise com
prehensivs, and judiciOusy arranged phonogf aphic
books Of Ben Pitman, Of Cnoiunat have thus easily
enabled me 20 make Photography practically useful
