Amateur Photography-III, Development and Printing '
ANYONE who is at all interested in photography must be familiar with the excellent work of Edgar and Winifred Ward — whoso photographs, so full of atmosphere, are often to be seen in such newspapers as the Observer and the Manchester Guardian, and a particularly fine example of whoso work appeared in our own summer number. Mr. and Mrs. Ward spend most of the summer travelling around securing pictures, which they work upon during the winter. They are, pre-eminently, the open-air artists of the camera. This particular talk is the third in Mr. Ward's series, and will deal particularly with developing and printing.

S.B. from Leeds

For his second talk Mr. Williamson has again chosen a subject that has engrossed writers since literature began - as indeed one of the fundamental facts of human existence must. Old age, in literature, tends on the whole to be grim, as the knowledge that age confers, combined with physical weakness, tends to be terrifying to the young. One can recall countless instances of fearful old age, from the wreck and desolation of King Lear to the ghostly disintegration of Cleopatra in 'Dombey and Son' - though the one instance of aged iniquity that perhaps impressed itself most strongly upon one's mind, as one invariably encountered it at an impressionable age, was the witch Gagool in Rider Haggard's 'King Solomon's Mines.'

There is, of course, merely rakish old age, admirably personified in Thackeray's 'Marquis of Steyne'; there is serene old age, of which Prospero remains the type; and there is pathetic old age, rarely more pathetic than that of Mr. Hugh Walpole's 'Two Old Ladies.' The humours of old age are another matter, and generally on a considerably lower plane. But the sheer horror of age has never been better projected than in Swift's hideous creation, the Studdburgs, those ghostly beings who remind us what a curse to humanity immortality might be.
