A BIG THREE DAYS
STATE CONVENTION FOR
SUNDAY SCHOOL FOLKS
The Host.
o CTOB Err IL, 1s, IA.

When Robert Raikes started his
fret Sunday School in 1880 or there
abouts, his friends and neiehbors
laughed at him and dubbed him
Bobby Wild Goose" but his wild
goose idea had so much good in il
that 1t would not be dowued bv
snee-s and ieers, and to-day the
Sunday School idea girdles the
globe.
The modern SundaySchool, with
the Bible as It's text book, employs
the time and talent of the best
scholars of the lana. Among its
officers and teachers are found the
first men and women in all walks of
life, and as an institution, the Sun
day School is recognized as one of
the most potent factors in the max.
ing of strong manhood and beautiful
womanhood.
Pennsylvania is the largest sun
Cay school district in the world ov-
or II 600 schools are located in the
state. with mem bership OF 1,s41.-
800. Like all progressive agencies,
these schools are federated in State
wide movement under the name Of
the Pennsylvania State Sabbath
School Association, with auxiliary
Associations in every one of the six
ty seven Counties. The orga nization
seeks to bring Improvement in meth
DDS and equipment to the smallest
school held in the country school
house, as we'll as the largest oity
school on the avenue.

assemble annually in State Conven-
tlon for the purpose of outlining its
yearly policy. The next Convention
will be the Forty Sixth Annual, and
is announced to meet in Altoona.

Making the Camera Practical.

THE first road which opens itself
before you as means of making pin
money with your Photographic skill
comes in the development of films and
printing from them for friends says
the Woman's Home Companion for
october. THE majority OF films are
developed by dealers in Photographic
supplies who also make prints. If YOU
are skilful in the work, you can make
prints and develop films and pick up
many penny in the doing. Of course.
It is necessary that you be able to offer
some inducement to get such work to
do. 1t may he that you are nearer home
than the professional finisher. it may
ne better work. Competition has
grown SO in this line of work that the
average price is ten cents a roll for
feNetoping films, and ten cents a roll
does not permit Il professional finisher
10 give any great amount of individual
care and produce results which prove
ii. you should have small difficulty
in getting the business of your friends
and their friends and their friends
friends.
1T is the same story over again in
printing: offer something different
from usual make it worth while. and
printing commissions will follow. For
instance, the majority of professional
hnIshers offer only black and white
prints, occasionally sepia prints. Tell
your friends that you will finish their
pictures in appropriate colors. green
Tor woodland scenes, blue for water
scenes, warm black and white for snow
scenes, brown for autumn. Have some
good samples TO show. Pin-money will
be thrown at YOU! And how? Well
TINS is not an instruction paper of
Photographic processes, but a satisfac-
tory green development paper is now
obtainable; the beautiful and unnec-
essarily despised blueprint, the cheap-
est paper buyable. can be made TO
yield beautiful results, particularly
If mounted on a gray card with a
white line around it; browns come
from a simple process on all deyelop-
ing papers, and warm black from cold
black is but a matter of adding a
toning bath to the developer. ."-Wom
