sor an exhibition Of about so
prints Of its alumni. Lowell A.
Kenyon Of Bethesda. at the

While q student at the

into a photography career
and he is employed now with
q firm In color processing
work. He is a member Of the

the Photographic Society Of
America and the Old Domin-
ion Camera Club.

James T. Morris will be added
to those Of Mr.. Kenyon for
displays as follows:
June Is to 26-Bethesda
Chevy Chase Public Library.
June "a to July 1O-Wheat-
on Public Library
The aim Is to stimulate in
terest in photography in stu
dents Of junior high and high
school ages. An auxiliary
aim is to demonstrate with
values of photography as a
medium Of artistic express
sion.
Mr.. Morris, who is audio-
visual co-ordinator at Leland.
said:
when students and edu-
Gators begin to realize the
increasing Importance Of
photography in industry and
science, as a hobby and as an
art medium. steps will be
taken to add photography to
the course Of study in the
curriculum. Only as a fully
accredited course, offered in
the public schools, can We
hope to produce men who can
understand and make use Of
the technical advances be-
ing made and to help broaden
and further the field through
research.

NUMISMATIC NOTES

In 1920 also was Of aluminium
but adverse climatic infiu-
ences led TO q shift to q
nickel alloy In 1922. and sub
sequent issues In 1925, 1927
and 1880 also were In nickel.
When the United States
gained possession Of the Phil
ippine Islands In 1898 the
mint at Manila. established
by Spanish royal decree In
1857. needed new machinery
and extensive renovation.
From the first issue OF 1908
through mid-l920 all Philip
pine-U. 8. coins were made In
the minis at Philadelphia
and San Francisco.
Both minis made coins for
circulation in 1908, 1904,
1905 and 1907. Proof sets
were struck at Philadelphia
in 1908. 1904. 1905, 1906 and
1908. The San Francisco
Mint was the exclusive pro-
ducing agent for Philippine
coins for q decade, 1909
through 1919. The mint let
ter IS" was placed on all
coins made there. It can be
found to the left Of the date.
The Manila Mint reopened
in July. 1920. closed in 1923
and reopened in 1925, con-
tinuing in service until It was
destroyed by Japanese bombs
in 1871.
No coins were struck for
the PHILIPPINES during the
Japanese occupation, but lib
Grafton late in 1914 brought
an urgent need for coins and
they were made at all three
mints then in operation
Philadelphia. San Francisco
and Denver. Only the Denver
and San Francisco MINIS
produced Philippine coins in
1045.
The Manila Mint has not
yet been rehabilitated. In
1858 q new isues Of coins for
the Republic Of the Philip
pines was struck at the Phil
adelphia Mint.
