To Shop Boys
Parrlsh shop boys In Shop HI
were shown how to blueprint by
Mr. Bullis, the mechanical drawing
teacher. He explained to them that
blueprinting is a photographio pro
cess and Is a big step leading to
elementary photography.
The negative was put In a print
ing frame with sensitized blueprint
ing paper behind it. It was then
exposed to the sun for three minutes
and developed In water and potas
sium blchromatl. The blueprinting
paper turned to a dark blue, leaving
white lines where the dark lines of
the drawing were. As a result of
this experiment, several of the boys
brought many pictures to the shop
the next day to be blueprinted. All
of the boys will have a chance to
make a few blueprints.
