PHOTO ENLARGEMENT
EXHIBITION OF PICTURES BY
DR. PAUL WOLFF
Something of the, révolutionary change photography has undergone in the past decade and the immenso possibilities which miniature cameras after to the amateur photographer, la demonstrated in the exhibition of enlargements of pictures taken with Lelen cameras, to be held in the Gloucester Arcade from February 17 The whole collection is the work of Dr. Paul Wolff, one of Germany's foremost photographers, but there is nothing in the exhibition which can- not be emulated by an amaitur'who takes time and trouble over his sub- jects and reitings..
Divided into ten groups, the col- lecilon contains 160 pictures cover- ing
wide range of subjects, the most unusual of which are those taken in scientific institutes. The intter, however, are tio! among those most likely to attract the interest of the layman, They are completely overshadowed both in beauty and technique by the landscapes and portrails, and in Jandscape works Dr. Wolff has given of his best.
The largest group in the collec tlon has been aptly entitled "He. Who Travels," and Includes plctures taken in many parts of the world, Oriental and Occidental: Among the most striking is a series of four taken in New York. One, a night photograph of the front of a cinema on premiere night, was taken with an Instantaneous exposure, and giver A good idea of what can be done with a fast alm where street il- lumination is sufficient.
From an Arablan cafe in Cairo Dr. Wolff produced a real "snap- shot" catching two men engaged in 21.40b/12b|| conversation before they were even 21.36 137 aware of his presence. Another ex- 21.21 /23 cellent picture in the same group 21.20 /22 was also taken in Cairo, the inner 21.34n court of the Gaml-by-Tulun Mos-
que.
Men in workshops, animals and plants, sport photography and pics tortul reporting, snapshots and 128%/120 photo-micrography are all-included 113/113In this comprehensive exhibition, 100%/100% each section treated with the same taste and the same perfection that the photographer hos achieved in his best landscapes.

What's the
difference between
a Cricket Ball and
a good Whisky ?
“A cricket ball,” said Johnnie Walker, taking one in his hand, “has got a seam--you can see and feel where the join comes and so it is with. poorly blended whiskies. But a good whisky like Johnnie Walker is somewhat like a billiard ball, perfectly round, perfectly smooth; the blends of rare whiskies are so skilfully married * that there are no 'edges' to the whisky. "It's always worth while saying‘A Johnnie Walker, please,' instead of ‘A whisky-and-soda.””
