The statements offered by some of the representatives of the different civic and political organizations who are seeking praise and credit, which I say is not their just due, is rather uncalled and it seems that in such times of stress it is necessary for all to do their utmost and work in accord with one another; therefore, let us all toil together harmony, advocate more rapid and better means of transportation and 'boost Route 59." Alderman Charles H. Haubert, the next speaker, said that the proposed route known as No.

59 would be the most direct means of transportation for those residing in the Bushwick-Ridgewood section. suggested that those who could not attend the at the Bushwick High School on Tuesday, March 14, the Commissioners in defense of this route. Petitions can be had upon request at the Alderman's office, 398 Central avenue. or at the office of Chat. 16 Weirfield street.

"in order to relieve the congestion of the present transit facilities. "Time should not be wasted but immediate action is necessary in this matter." George Closset, also representing the club and the Twenty-eighth Ward Taxpayers' Protective Association, at the hearing before the Commissioners, arged all the members to attend the local hearings. A resolution offered by Geo. H.

Ott to respectfully petition the Hon. J. Gratton McMahon, Isaac W. Jacobson and Edward F. Linton, Commissioners appointed by the Appellate Division to favor the route known as No.

59, was unanimously Thomas J.

Rhodius, Jr. AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHY. (By H. Weber, 1239 Broadway.) Pictures of the baby- All parents want pictures of the baby, but those who have tried. know that it is some trouble to get good ones and there are many.

failares: Now, if you will take a little advice. I will save you many, of the failures, and help you to make good ones. Trying to take a baby indoors by daylight is absolutely useless, excepting the baby is asleep, because any baby will move many times before sufficient exposure can be given. If an indoor picture must be made, flashlight is the only means. Even the professional under his gallery skylight has his troubles.

The amateur's solution for a good baby picture is. outdoors in good light, best a slightly diffused direct sunlight. With a large diaphragm a snapshot or very short time. exposure will generally do. The child is best left as unconcerned as possible.

Any demonstration, preparation or fuss will scare small child. spoiling its expression and pose. For this reason amateur pictures are often perior. to gallery pictures. Repeated attempts may be necessary for a successful picture.

Many of these pictures are thought little of at the time of their taking, but are highly valued long after. WOMEN AT THEATER PARTY. Harmony Eastern Star Chapter Enjoys Vaudeville Performance.
