HOW TO VIEW PHOTOGRAPHS
One Eye Should Be Used, AS Is Case
With Camera.

Photographs should be looked at with
only one eye, to appear best. states It.
w. NARROW in an article on How 10
Look at a Photography in Photo-Era.
Most photographs, particularly small
ones OF landscapes, street scenes and in
teriors. fail to produce their full effect or
to be estimated at their true value, be-
cause they are not looked at in the most
effective way the author says. Take
as an example print resulting from a
camera with a fve-inch focus lens Such
print is usually looked at with both
eyes open, and held ut distance Of u
inches or more. Now camera. is essen-
TALLY one-eyed instrument, or, at any
rate, it views the object TO be repro
duced from a single point. the optical
centre - the lens. The object must bs
looked at, therefore, with one eye only,
and from point corresponding as nearly
as possible to the optical centre of ths
lens II its characteristics as it is TO bs
reproduced in the camera are to be Gp-
preciatcd.
Let 1t he remembered that when 9
print is looked at with both eyes open
biuocular vision emphasizes the hatness
of the card and this tends to offset the
illusion Of greater or less distance pro"
duced by the light and shade and per"
spcctive OF the print BY using one eye
the impression of latness is greatly di-
minished. II at the same time the eys
be placed at the right distance, every
thing IS seen under its natural angle
or perspective. and the picture unfolds
Itself, the different objects receding to
their proper relative distances, making
details very obvious which may be UNI
noticed if looked at in the ordinary way.
AS a sort of coTollary TO the above,
use one eye alone TO decide whether
landscape or other scene is worth taking
IF with one eye the scene looks fiat, u
will not make n satisfactory photograph

TAILOR MADE GIRL
COMING BACK TO
FASHIONS REALM
Frocks of Fluff and Fnll
Make Way for Plain Shirt
and Practically Cut Skirt.

The tailor-made girl Is walking, in her
own sure-footed way, back into the arena
of fashion. Frocks all fun and fr,u,

skirt were sighted unless golf or tenn,,

yoke popular In the past, but yoke cut

than the shirt that is made of any other
material.
The blouse sketched todayis of striped

back cuffs of linen, stlffly starched.

The skirt is cut after an old pattern
that is acquiring new prestige. 1t is close

gives enough width at the foot for free

There is a deep yoke to the skirt with
a Stimulating fold in front, along which
three buttons are ranged for ornamental
and not for utilitarian purposes. The
skirt buttons in the back genuinely.
The pocket, placed rather low on the
skirt beneath the yoke, is useful and
gives the masculine touch necessary to
the success of all tailored garments.
For the business girl or woman there
is nothing so appropriate for office wear
as the plain skirt and blouse.
The trim tailored look is very attractive
under all circumstances, but office con-
ditions make it sensible and suitable
The vogues change too quickly in ths
claboratcly cut or trimmed frocks to
make them n wise investment for prac-

season, day in and day out.
But the simple shirt and the severely
cut skirt look as well on their last day
as on their first-in fact to the very end
of the chapter of their wearing.
