matter to obtain a picture. either with

This has resulted in feeling of dis
like for the camera fiend," as he Is
sometimes called, and has perhaps
led to the designing of rather unique
scheme to secure pictures on the quiet.
No one would suspect an innocent
looking walking stick Of concealing q
Photographic lens. shutter and roll Of
sensitized films, and yet that Is Just
what this cane is designed to do. The
artist has shown a portion of the head
cut away to expose the interior mech

which the film is wound over the roll
ers to bring 1t In position for use at
the rear Of the lens. 1t is intended to
make provision for loading and un-
loading the camera by daylight, and
quite a respectable looking picture
can be obtained with 1t In the hands
Of a practiced operator.
This cane camera Is the invention Of
