room. There are many possible open
ings for the woman photographer. If
she has had a practical training in a
city studio, she may prefer to remain
IN the employ of a photographer with
a steady salary OF twenty to fifty dol
lars a week, or if in addition to good
business ability she has some available
capital she might follow in the foot
steps of the dozen or so prominent
women photographers whose names
now stand out as Independent photo
era piers owning and running their
own establishments. With very small
capital a young woman might start out
IN a small town or a summer resort.
one young woman, whose only training
had been gained through her w eff
forts at home, opened a small studio in
the loft of an unused Stable-Quarters
Tor which she had to pay only five dol
lars a month. She put up attractive
signs and sent circulars to a mailing
list of five hundred of the most prom
lnent people in the tOwn-a town of
about twenty-five thousand population.
1t was the novelty of having a young
woman take photographs and the
q~uatntness Of the loft studio, as we'll as

first two or three months this young

which compares very favorably with
the earnings of other young women in
me same town. PhOtOgraphing the eX-
teriors and interiors Of houses became
the vocation of one woman photograph
er. She began In a newly opened sub
urb of New York city where practically
EVERYONE was glad to have a set of
half a dozen views of her house. Now.
with the aid Of a solicitor who goes
the rounds of the various suburban
regions of New York city in advance of
the photographer, she is kept busy TAX
ing pictures of suburban houses. Photo
graphing ~pets-horses, cats, dogs and
even birds-fOr their owners keeps an
other young woman busy. In one faV-

woman photographer nets a good in
cards, dance orders and souvenir book

cal interest. One young school teacher

her pupils she gets through the recon-

customer a card stating that Miss So
and-So gives instruction in the use of
the camera at a dollar a lesson.

Women members Of the ANGLICAN
church have been given the vote on
equal terms with men in church af-
talrs, and will also be admitted as lay
representatives on parochial church
councils, according to a recent decision
reached at the annual meeting of the
representative church council. The vote
was 1873 to 80. Those for the chang
were twenty-five bishops; ninety
clergy, and seventy-six laity; those
three bishops, fifteen clergy
and seVenty-two laity. The militant
reply to this concession
was an attempt to break I'D the meet

should drop all other business and de-
vote it's attention to securing the re-
lease Of women who are UNDERGOING
Imprisonment for burning churches and
destroying art treasures. The dean of
Canterbury was the most insistent on

public affairs he was entirely of the
opinion OF Pericles, The less women
