preciation of thepossibilities of photography as instrumental in bridging thechasm between nature and art. To a question of why, theanswer is written in the thousand prints exhibited in tradewindows, by the press, and in a myriad post cards. To thegreat question of how, from him who lacks special art train-ing, you perhaps are best answered by having passedon to you from the writer the encouragement and incentivegiven him by one of our foremost artists and teachers. Uponquestioning him as to the advisability of attending an artschool in the essay to approach the higher ideals, he, know-ing the whys and hows better than most, said, Study pic-tures, my boy, study pictures, and further elucidated thatthe casual training likely to be imbibed by the average man,for whom this is written, the geniuses being a law unto them-selves, would more confuse and hinder than help, but, thatthat tabloid advice Study pictures, supplemented by properreading, would put and keep you on the right track. 148
