These last, he said. did him no good. be-
cause he could not sell them, marked as
they were. and the hotel had refused to
reward him for their return. In getting
his paper ready for shipment to the junk
shops, he uses 4 baIing press of very
primitive kind. A number of strings are
loosely placed across the open top of a
large box and upon these a layer of pa
per is spread.
The old man then tramps this down un-
til it is solid, his little girl; meanwhile,
the box is filled and its contents com
pact mass. The strings are, of course,
long enough when doubled to reach to the
bottom of the box, so that, when the
pressing operation is over they encircle
the entire bale. When all is completed
their ends are made fast, and the paper
is laid aside to await the next trip to
the dealer.

Unless there is u better feeling be-
tween the warning factions of the differ
cnt schools OF photography, it is probable
that the Philadelphia salon for 1902 will
be abandoned. II this should be the final
outcome OF the petty sGuabbling. the loss
of the annual salon will be source OF
regret to hundreds of earnest Photographic
workers who have taken no interest in
the controversies. but have been deeply
interested in the success of the movement
toward higher aims in pictorial photog-
raphy.
Although il is somewhat early TO pre-
dict the final action of the Pennsylvania
Academy OF Fine Arts in this matter, some
of the photographic magazines are pre-
dieting that there will be no salon in
Philadelphia or New York this year, and
that the next salon will be a national
salon. and held in Chicago, Washington,
or in Boston
The prediction that neither Phiiadel-
phia or New York will be able to hold

sumption that the dissensioL among the
