If you know anything at all about photography, keep 1t up for then you will be able to earn a few extra dollars film camera of the snapshot variety Is the most valuable for the pictures can nearly always be enlarged If necessary. camera of the smaller size, however. is also very useful If you live fin the country, In village or small town, there are many odd jobs you can do which ought to make your camera pay you we'll
 For instance you get a good picture of the most popular pastor In your neighborhood. These gentlemen are al- ways willing to help you. snap him in his garden or in his study. print the photos on postcards. and in addition, put few into neat cardboard or wooden frames, which can be bought very cheap ly by the dozen. Then offer these to members of the congregation or to neighbors and also place a display in some store window. The expense is so trihing that you will only need to sell five or six. the postcards at five cents, and the framed pictures at 25 cents to begin making n profit. g
 Then there are dozen of other ways in which the amateur can profitably use his spare time and his camera. Take a wedding a christening, the Fourth of July celebration, any such local event Make half a dozen snapshots of each. Print several copies of each. Then take some of that thick grained art mounting paper. green, gray or brown or any other tint or color you prefer. Make up little booklet of this paper. Tie IL to- gether with cord of the same color as the paper, tying the cord in a bow at the back outside of the cover. Give complete page. not counting the cover, for each photo. or other thing you may paste in it. . When completed you will have a little art album, which in the case of a wedding or personal affair. should sell for a dollar. and the sale of 10 or a dozen would bring you in a nice lit- tie profit.

On the sec ond page put the portrait of the bride and groom. should you have them. These. by being pasted together or If fin one print, can be cut out in heart shape.
