the carnival purposes in a string of

Special Announce snt.
To the people of Manchester and

To the people of Manchester and
vicinity: H.. =.
l beg to announce the opening of
my new Photographic studio within
the next two or three weeks. With
my twenty five years Of expert
ence in several different states, in
Guiding many years in some of the
leading studios of America, 1 am
in a position to promise you, with
out boasting, a. line of portrait
ure, both Photographic and hand
made, unsurpassed in this or any
other city and at prices as low as
possible consistent with a high
quality of artistic excellence and
workmanship. r.
While some of my goods are on
the way from Florida and it will be
impossible to open my studio until
they arrive, am, nevertheless, ready
for work and until the opening of
my studio 1 will confine my efforts
to views and home portraiture and
finishing work for amateures. The
popularity of home portraiture among
people of culture throughout the
country is splendid testimony of
its popularity; not only that, but
it enables you to have your photo
taken far superior to the average
studio work without leaving your
homes and it will be pleasure for
me to call and show samples at any
time without obligation to you.
To the amateur photographers, I
wish. to say that your work will
receive the same expert care that
l give my own work, at prices no
doubt a. little lower than you are
in the habit of paying with twen-
ty-four hour service in addition. If
you wish some of your best films
enlarged I am in a position to Of
fer you better work at lower prices.
The entrance to my studio is up
the City Hall stairway-first stairway
north of the post Office where
can be found at any time during :,
the day or your address left at
Grem's drug store will bring me
to you. CLAUD WRIGHT.
