E v. Wilcox, who is opening his
studio this week, in the upstairs
rooms Of the old Central Pharmacy
building. invited US up Monday and
! showed Us his rooms and nav sauip-
ment. When Mr.. Wilcox closed his
studio at the time he entered military
service, he disposed of all his equip
ment. so that his stock nov is entire
ly new and the very latest in i'm
provement. Everything is the best
which he could procure. The rooms
have been r%emodeled. and the walls
and floors done over artistically. The
camera room has been fitted with the
very best in the camera line, a beau
| tiful Arrestrv tapestry background,
and an electric sky-Iight of 1000
watts. Practically all of his appa.
ratus is run by electricity, 80 that
he is absolutely Independent of wea-
ther conditions. In his laboratory he
has put in an automatic electric dry
ing machine and an electric printer.
The latter has an attachment by
which he can regulate The intensity
of the light and reduce it to nothing
if he wishes. The drying machine
consists Of a cylinder, heated and re-
volved slowly ty electricity, and a
canvas belt which passes over the
cylinder and on which the prints are
laid By this process the prints are
dried with just the right curve and
in two or three minutes. Most of his
laboratory apparatus Mr.. Wilcox has
made himself and shows his ability
and ingenuity in manual training as
well as photography. From now on
he will use films exclusively, instead
of plates, finding them more salts
factory. Mr.. Wilcox feels sure that
there is not a better studio in the
state, and few az good, and in it he
will be able to do any kind of work:
at n time.
