special stories. The last I received was in July 1928, two years ago, and
this from Mrs. Montgomery, who financed the taking of the photograph and
sent to me the story of the " Wetaskiwin Clinic."
For the past year I have felt that I was getting into a rut, that I was
grinding out branch reports with a deadly monotony— all on the same pattern,
just like Ford cars from the factory. As photographs, in journalistic
terms, are 50% the value of any news story, you can judge for yourselves
how they will brighten up our columns.
The Institutes that have responded so splendidly I have placed on an
honor roll and here is the list:
Fairview— Hospital.
Penhold— Memorial Hall.
Sylvan Lake—' Dock.
Sexsmith— Maternity Home.
Mahaska Peers, Carrot Creek and McLeod Valley— Nurses' Home.
Deliburne— Rest Room.
Wainwright— Shield to be presented at the Musical Festival.
Fanny Edgson of Westlock, winner District No. 2 Scholarship.
Langdon— Community Hall ( with photographs of before and after.)
Lousana, Reid H i l l , McLennan.
Priddis Westoe ( this W. I. bought one of the oldest schools in the province
and fixed it up for a club room.)
Walsh—( F hope to get an interior, also a picture of the President, Mrs.
Sinclair, who has headed this W. I. for 16 years.)
Stories I Have Received or Know About and Hope to Get Photographs
Blackfalds— Playground.
Grande Prairie— Street beautified with trees and ward furnished in the
new hospital by surrounding W. I's.
Round Hill— Beautified Cemetery.
Berwyn— Cottage Hospital.
Cluny— Skating Rink.
Wetaskiwin— Ward in Hospital.
Spring Coulee— Beautified home of a W . I. member.
Bindloss— Triplets of Mrs. Stanley Staples.
Let every delegate here go home and look over W. I. efforts in her community
from a photographic standpoint. A clear snap makes a good cut.
Get me pictures of your Flower Shows, Libraries, Clinics, etc. Be careful
if there are people in the picture that the snap is not too small.
Financing the Department
Three newspapers, the Calgary Herald, Edmonton Journal and Lethbridge
Herald, finance this department. They pay for every expense connected
with it, cuts from photographs ( and these are very expensive), paper, stamps
and a person to run it. The reports do not appear regularly in the Daily
issues of the Calgary Herald and Edmonton Journal, but only as space permits.
They do in the Weeklies, the Alberta Farmer and Alberta Farm
Journal. They also appear in the Daily of the Lethbridge Herald.
They are apportioned as follows :
