"a Sylvan Stream"
"A Sylvan Stream is the title OF the
picture selected for the second honor
able mention. This picture was sub
mitted by Sidney I. Besselievre. whose
picture Of the canal was referred to in
the review of a former contest. IN this
work he has avoided some OF the errors
OF the former composition and has Sc
cured tone values of an exceptionally
fine quality. The composition could be
improved By trimming 215 inches from
the bottom OF the print, and thus get
ting rid OF some unsightly posts which
direct the attention to a portion of tho
picture which has but little charm.
Humor and Originality.
There is touch OF humor. and much
originality in Behind the Times" sub

third honorable mention. This seems TO
be a wholly novel idea in the line of pic

"Dolly's Wash Day"

AIvena Daetz has presented a pic

gagged IN hanging out a wash on the line.
The title is Wash Day" and from
fact that a doll is discovered in a chair
seemingly in the same condition or
nudity as on the day OF her purchase.
It is inferred that the wash is the prop

work is being submitted Is an assurance
that the amateurs are getting into bet

A Picture Full of Interest.
The first prize has been awarded to
Max Abel for his landscape entitled My
Home Is in Yonder Valley" a picture
which possesses the charm OF a beautiful
section Of country treated with a good
appreciation OF a higher condition OF pic4

picture making. the stronger lighting on

fects are soon forgotten.

Everett Partridge is represented by
