Roll film was first introduced in 1N7.", and the early foundations for the modern color processes were laid as early as 1M51. Practical color photographs of an enduring type were made before the turn of the century. The camera itself is much older than any of these things. There has been no change in basic principle since the earliest date of the camera, obscura, mentioned by Aristotle about boo 11. C. As an example, there are still several well known photographers who make pictures in a camera without lens, either as a hobby or for pictorial effect. Such cameras usually consist of a small, light-tigh- t box, pierced at one end with a needle, and with some type of black and white film held or taped flat at the other. The pin hole projects an image which is never quite sharp, but which has infinite depth of field. In other words, the resulting picture is a little soft or blurred, but everything from the nearest to the farthest object is in sharp focus. The result can be quite pleasing. Well have one or two pictures made by this simplest of all cameras on exhibit at the Utah PhoShow, which will tography be held in connection with the Utah State Fair at the State Fair Grounds in Salt Lake City, September 12 through 20. Well also present a few of the Civil War pictures by Matthew Brady, first and most famous of all combat photographers.

Jackson, immortalized in the naming of Jackson Hole and Jack-so- n Lake, practised the profession of photography for eighty-fiv- e years. He made the first pictures of the Yellowstone and the Jackson Hole country; captured on wet plates the beauty of the high Rockies, including Mt. Holy Cross, and presented the Mesa Verde and Canyon De Chelly Indian ruins to the record of world. His forty-yea- r life among the Western Indians has never been surpassed. These pictures were not made the easy way. Many of them were made with huge cameras using plates 1(5x2 1 inches which had to be coated, shot and developed within fifteen minutes after coating.

All this growth has come at a time when inflation was steadily pushing the costs of supplying good telephone service up and up and telephone rates have lagged far behind. As a result, our earnings are so low that continued expansion of the service is being hampered.
