y the first Get-together luncheon will be enjoyed at the Hotel Rennert, and for Wed-nesday evening a banquet and dance at the same hotel are planned. There will be splendid talks and demonstrations by leading photographers, and a fund of new ideas and experiences will be poured out for the benefit of the members. Some of the subjects to be discussed are Pictorial Photography, by Eugene Hutchinson of Chicago, Home Portraiture, by W. O. Breckon of Pittsburgh, and Negative Making, by Dudley Hoyt, New York. There will be a talk by Prof. Edward Lake, Department of Art and Design of the University of IlHnois, a business talk by Pirie MacDonald, NewYork, and demonstrations of airplane photography by members of the U.
