Steichen A COLLECTION OF AMERICAN PICTORIAL PHOTOGRAPHS AS ARRANGED BY THE PHOTO-SECESSION AND EXHIBITED UNDER THE AUSPICES OF THE CAM- ERA CLUB OF PITTSBURG, AT THE ART GALLERIES OF THE CARNEGIE INSTITUTE, PITTSBURG, FEBRUARY M D C C C C I V Wt)t Carnegie institute Carnegie Institute was founded by Andrew Carnegie on the second day of March, A. D. 1896. The deed of trust appointed a Board of Trustees composed of eighteen members, with power of perpetuation, and, ex-officio, the members of the Board of Trustees of the Carnegie Library, as said Board may from time to time be composed; and dedicated an annual fund of $50,000 in perpetuity for the purchase of objects of art for a Department of Fine Arts and Scientific Collections for a museum. The institute is com- posed, therefore, of two departments, but is closely allied with the Carnegie Library and Music Hall, and occupies the same building. The annual fund for the use of the Department of Fine Arts and the Museum was increased by the donor on November 12, 1901, to $100,000. The amount given by Mr. Carnegie for the erection of the main build- ing and the branch buildings connected with the Library was $1,100,000. A new building-fund of $5,000,000 was provided by the founder in March, 1903, for an extension to the main building. Pending the construction of this extension, important collections are withheld from exhibition, owing to lack of space. The Department of Fine Arts is open during the week from 10 a. m. to 10 p. m., and on Sunday from 1 p. m. to 6 p. m., and admission is free to the people. Decoration Day, Fourth of July, and Christmas the Insti- tute and the Library are closed. Gifts of objects within the range defined by the term "Fine Arts" will be gladly received by the department, and communications relating thereto should be addressed to the Director of Fine Arts, Mr. John W. Beatty. %\>t Camera Club of pttsfturg (Established July 15, 1903) The Camera Club of Pittsburg is pledged to promote the interests of pictorial photography and to sanction only such work "as shows distinctive evidence of artistic perception and execution." The object of the Society is to aid its members, through monthly exhibitions with constructive criti- cism, to advance the quality of their work, to promote good-fellowship among its members, and to hold an annual exhibition, open to all pictorial photographers. The management of the Society is entirely in the hands of a Board of Trustees, composed of the Director and six others, actively interested in the advancement of pictorial photography. Membership is open to pictorial photographers only. As all members are chosen with regard to their interest in the aims of the Society, and are therefore expected to work in entire sympathy with the Society's object, Rules or By-Laws are deemed unnecessary. The annual dues to meet current expenses are $5.00, payable to the Director on or before October 1 of each year. Membership fee is $10.00. Membership at present limited to 25. Applications as well as all other communications should be addressed to the Director, Lewis F. Stephany. C. Dudley Armstrong Prof. F. T. Aschman W. S. Bell Francis E. Gaither Robert Gregc James B.

GOERZ OPTICAL WORKS 52 Union Square, East, New York The SEED NON-HALATION ORTHO PLATE PORTRAIT AND LANDSCAPE A HIGH-GRADE PLATE, ABSO- LUTELY UNIFORM IN QUALITY THE SEED Non- halation Ortho Plates are daily gaining new adher- erents. Given a trial no other brand will again satisfy. These claims are substan- tiated in the following, writ- ten to us by the Editor of Camera Work: "For three years I have used the Seed Non-halation Ortho Portrait- plate for virtually all my serious work, including so-called snapshots. In my opinion it is the most perfect all-around plate in the American market to-day. For that reason — together with its absolute reliability — I am using it as the standard by which I test all other plates." i. 5i GETTY CENTER LIBRARY
