ARMSTRONG OPENS
 STUDIO HERE
Experienced Photo Artist With Establishments in Boston :.
 and New York

William Armstrong;, manager of pho- tographic studios in New York and ment of the Whitmau studio at the corner of Fairfield avenu and Park avenue. MT. Armstrong will give hds personal supervision to the local stu dio and coming as he does with an ex- perience that fits him for all branches Of photograph work. MT. Armstrong makes a welcome addition to, the busi- ness directory of the city.
 The name of the local studio will be changed. It will henceforth be known as the Armstrong Whitman studio
 in the equipment and MT. Armstrons proposes to offer a farket where the very best of photographic supplies and ma tersda1c cam be secured I Ii "a dd Itio n the headquarters for West Side camera amateurs and will cater especially to this patronage.
 Tn art work Mr. Armstrong excels. He has already established a wide rep utsastion among people of New Y ork and BostPn who like the exclusive and Bost9n Billy Armstrong is. well known His studios in These two cities cater specially to theatrical people In the Yambs club are members who wouldn't listen to the suggestion that they have their photographic work done by any one else than Billy.
 In spealing of the theatrical people most fastidious ,exacting and properly fussya people to do photographic work for that I know of. Their pictures have to go before the public and for that reason they have to be particular and a photographer who can cater to that taste can cater to the best pat ronage in the land.''
 MT Armstrong has an intimate ac- quaintance with most of the leading performers of the day and has many beautiful and fine examples of the work he has done for them, on display at his new studio There is not a branch of the photographic work that MT ArxnDtrong does not understand. He has in his day served as newspaper paotoN apher and he has likewise done artistic work. From wide experi- ence he brings an ability which prom fses an excellent opportunity to obtain the very best of Photographic work.

!.THE, SHEER. :.

1 That the day isn't past yet when
 men can accomplish things through an application Of old-fashioned faith, has been remarkably demonstrated in the
 career of Perley Poore Sheehan. whose Hshed by Mofrat-Yard. MT. Sheehan recently resumed a desk with The Frank A. Munsey Company, which he abandoned two years ago when the call to write ssThe Seer carried him into one of the widest and loneliest sections of Florida. He still owns a deserted orange plantation down there. It WAS trip to New Orleans, after a long period of seclusion on this lone | ly plantation. that inspired one Of chapter describing the funeral of a fallen woman.
 MT. Sheehan is a native of Hamilton, ohio.l After working for while on graduation from high school, he con ceived the idea of attending an east ern college He at that time had fifty about such colleges But having seen
 the photograph of pr. A. V. " Ray
 mond, then president of Union, in an face" he chose Union. President Raymond by the way, became one of his best friends. Sheehan worked his way, and four years later, at his grad pocket.
 He had a hundred dollars, saved up after q year on New York paper. when he started out to see more Of the world After walking through Cu- ba and visiting Spain, he eventually landed in Paris with ten dollars in his pocket He spoke no French and
 was practically friendless. Within Eve years he had risen to be editor in charge of the Paris edition of The New
 Yorw Herald. In all he remained abroad ten years, principally in Lone don and Paris. for either The Herald
 or The New York Times.
 s"The Seer" his first book, is itself a book of faith. The publishers de-
 scribe 1t as a solution of any mans
 troubles. whatever those troubles may ItSis a strange and gripping story of how a country preacher, rising to a
 position of fame and power through
 the practical application of old truths,
 sways men and women regardless of
 creed or race. The scene is laid in
 the romantic and impreSsionab1e South,
 and the characters are. Of kind rarely
 touched on hitherto in any book
 It is document of real human in

 best described in the words of one friend to another: 'e4If you're up against it, read The Seer.'''

SCHOOLS ARE
 OVERCR0WDED
Big Increase in Attendance Cause of Double Sessions
 in Some Schools

crowded conditions of the public schools continue to trouble members
 Of the Board of Education. The con- gestton has become more and more pronounced and Superintendent Chas
 W Deane has reported that something mas got to be done to relieve the sit uation. The tremendous and unusual increase in the number of children this year has made it necessary to hold double sessions in many of the avenue Lincoln school, Summerf1e1d school and the Shelton scfool have been overcrowded to such an extent as to make it necessary to hold dou ble, sessions. The condition has been some what relieved at the Shelton school . Where two rooms have been or will be equipped in the Shelton school irnme- dlately. One room has already been put in use and the other is being pre- pared. new room is also going to be arranged on the top GOT of the Sum merffeld building.
 One member of the Board points out the fact that the increase in school fa- cNities IS by no means keeping pace with the increase in the number of children who want to attend school. The school board has been building on an average, ten room building each year. The fncre ease in the attendance each year requires double and some times triple that amount of room. It won't take but another year or so when the Board of Education will find lack of facilities. There isn't a school room in the city that is not occupied this year; in fact all are filled to their capacity. Nearly every room has be- tween 0and 50 children. The situa- tion is becoming more and more seri- o1g and the Board of Education mem bers are wondering what wdl1 be the outcome. The Poplar street school will soon be in use and this will re- lieve she conditions in the West End, to some extent
