TO RAISE THE GRADE.
photographers VIII Try to Equal Work
Done in Europe.

New York, June 12.-Oficers of the
Lithographic Artists, Engravers and
Designers League of America, which
closed its annual convention in this city
last week, have made an agreement
with the employing photographers to
raise the standard of the trade in this
country by forming an apprenticeship
board.
The highest class of photographic
work is now done in Europe, but it is
hoped that under the new scheme this
country can produce men capable of do
ing any grade of work. The board will
be composed of employers and en-
ployes. Boys who desire to become ap-
prentices will be tested as to their abili-
ty, will be put on probation for six
months and will then be examined
again. If their work show ability they
will become full apprentices.
