from Rochester, where they went to consult specialists regarding

Have you ever stopped to consider what an important question it
is: What shall we give as an X-mas gift? Let us make a suggestion
that a good photograph of yourself would be appreciated more than
any other present that you could give at the same cost. With our
modern equipments we are in a position to turn out the best work
not only by daylight but also after dark as we have equipped our
studio with artificial light for the convenience of those who can
not come in during the day. We will keep our studio open from 7
to 9 p.m. on appointments only. Call 98.
