TUB Twelfth annual print exhibit of the Oregon Camera Club, now being held in the Museum of Art. on Fifth and Taylor streets, is attracting much at tention from the general public and fiora art lovers in particular. There is a greater number of exhibits this year than ever before and the general tone of the work is better. Many new exhibitors are Included, which is a most gratifying fea ture to the club as It encourages all mem bers to make an effort to excel in photog raphy. The many beautiful color prints are particular noticeable. Bromides and gum prints are in the ascendency, and there are a few very beautiful and effec tive carbona The committee appointed to judge the pictures and ' award the prizes consisted of Mrs. Claud Gatch of Salem, amateur photographer. Struck Aune, professional photographer, and Cleveland Rockwell, artist. The Jud Cup for the best general collection was awarded to George F. Holman, the other prizes, consisting of club pins and honorary mention, being for landscape, marine and river and harbor views, still life, flowers, portraits, cloudat animal studies and genre prints. While the decision of the judges Is satisfactory, there are several very fine exhibits which are fully up to the standard of the prize winners. This Is most noticeable In the portrait class, for though the prints of Bert C. Lewis and H. J. Thorne, which received first and second prizes, are artistic and well ex ecuted, the one In George F. Holman's collection is a most delicate and artistic bit of work. In making the decision on cloud effects the judges gave the first to Albert Myers' "After the Storm" and second to I. IT. IJpman on a study entitled "After the Shower." Two of the best pictures In the exhibi tion r the river and harbor prints which took first and second prizes, the first going to F. H. McClure and the second to J. V. Reid. Here again It is difficult to determine which is the more meritorious, both of them being gems in their way and the exquisite color effects most per fect and pleasing. The landscapes and seascapes were many and excellent, and the awards in this class to J. A. Haran and Albert Myers were most satisfactory. H. J. Thorne has a beautiful landscape print, and J. V. Reid shows a sunset landscape which is an exquisite bit of color and of beautiful composition. G. F. Holman won tirst on seascapes and H. J. Thorne sec ond. Mr. Haran has a beautiful speci men in this class, quite up to the two prize winners. The awards for genre prints went to Fred J. Rogers and J. A. Haran. both of them being good, and H. E. Powell won both first and second for flowers. His work was fine in this most difficult field. J. L. Braden and Mrs. J.' J. Fitzgerald were first and second on animal studies and the still-life prizes went to H. J. Thorne and Dana Sleeth. Mr. Thorne pictures a pair of mallard ducks which were much admired. Moonlight on Mount Hood. Among the most artistic and beauti ful prints in the exhibit is In the collec tion of F. H. McClure. who presents a moonlight scene on Mount Hood in car bon. The tones are deep green and the moonlight is particularly effective. An old pine tree stands ia the foreground, making a most pleasing composition. Mr. Holman has a fine foggy day scene. Haran's collection attracts much favor able comment. Dana Sleeth runs to the spectacular in color effects but he has a pretty thing in "A Sea Cliff" in deep blue tones. Fully a thousand visitors viewed the pictures Monday night and all day yes terday the gallery was well filled. Among the callers were about 500 school teachers who are attending an institute in Port land. Everyone expresses great satisfac tion over the excellent showing made by the amateur photographers and the ex hibitors naturally feel much encouraged in their work. The hanging and lighting of the prints are all that could be desired. . The ex hibition will be open every afternoon and evening this week and the public is cordially welcomed. OUT OF THE ORDINARY. New and Attractive- Way to Build Vp Trade. Until January 1 to give the pick and choice, without reserve, of any suit in the store, up to and including all suits sold for 122.30 for only J13. is the way the Brownsville Woolen Mill Store has of building up trade. The two thousand suits which have been provided for . the sale are extra good quality and of very attractive pattern, as is shown by a look in the front windows of the store. Most of them are from pure worsted cloth and are fully worth the regular prices of J16.50. S17.50. 518.50. J19, $20, $21.50 and J22.60. . Any one can use his own judgment in picking out a suit, as they are all marked In plain figures, and $15 takes' the pick. The Browns ville Woolen Mill Store has forged to the front very fast during the past two years, and the claim that the success lies in manufacturing clothing and sell ing it direct from the mill to the con sumer and in giving better goods for. less money than can be had elsewhere.
