camera can accomplish, even when oper-
ated by the amateur.
For those who want the technical side
OF photography there are booths set
apart with able instructors in charge,
who explain by actually doing the work
before your very eyes, the methods OF
developing and of printing. These in
structors do not. however, intrude on
those who merely wish to look at the
beautiful pictures and hear the popular
lectures. Their part in this exhibition
is to help along the lines of picture TAX
ing and picture making, those enthu-
siasts who love to finish their pictures,
whose>interest goes beyond merely press
ing the button and letting somebody
else do the rest"

She FALLS HEIR TO
RICHLY DRESSED BABY
Mrs. Grace Asked to Hold it
and She Still Has it

South Norwalk, May 17.-While re-
turning home today from New Londoa,
Mrs. Dennis Grace met on the train a
stylishly dressed woman who had with
her five months old baby. At New
Haven this woman asked Mrs. Grace
to mind the child while she got some
thing to eat in the station. The wo-
man left a Boston-New York ticket
in the seat
The train only waited a few minutes
and the woman didn't return. There
was nothing for Mrs Grace to do but
care for the child, which she is still
doing. The infant is richly dressed and
there is a gold ring on the little fin
ger of the left hand. Mrs. Grace is
convinced the woman had no intention
of abandoning the child and thinks she
must have met with a accident, or she
would have telegraphed ahead for the
infant.
The officials of the road are trying
to find the woman.

The fact that the Fort Valley Sun

terest to many here who have rela-
tives and friends in that city, and the
occasion will be one of mutual en-
joyment. The fact that the Americas

that time will, it is believed, induce a
larger attendance here upon the part
of Fort Valley visitors, who can en-
joy the picnic and at the same time
spend several hours at the Chautau-

The local management has sent to
Fort Valley the program for FRIDAY,

MANY new FALES In

Only SO Old Men Return Out
Of 1888 Members

Atlanta, Ga. May 1.-THE house of
the 1913-14 general assembly, which
ConVenes here in June, will be new in
more senses than one People have
scarcely figured out how new it will
be. Out of the 1873 members of the
lower branch of the legislature, there
will be only 80 men who were in the
general assembly last year. This viii
mean LA new Legislators, and will en-
lrely change the complexion of the
house.
so far as can be figured in advance
the new body will be the most non
partisan that Georgia has had in many
years. Only few of the new members
have ever been actively identified in d
lighting sense with either the Joe
Brown or the Hoke Smith faction. No
body can predict who will be the new
leaders in the house. Joe Hill Hall
Hooper Alexander, John Holder, Ran
dolph Anderson, are gone, and it may
be that men now entirely unknown 10
the state at-iarge win take their
places.
1t can scarcely be expected that the
early part of the session of the house
viii run very smoothly. There are
sure TO bee small deIuge of proposed
new legislation. This is inevitable
with new body of men, many of them
young and ambitious.
