A lecture on “Composition Printing” was delivered by Mr. F. Whaley in which he gave an admirable account of his method of building up Pictures from two or more negatives.

Three of his Prize Pictures were taken as examples & the whole process from the inception of the subject to the production of the print was explained in a graphic & simple manner which could be understood by the verist Tyro present. The accompanying demonstration was intently watched by all & the process freely discussed by the more experienced members. Mr. Whaley readily replying to questions as he went on with his work.

A hearty vote of thanks to Mr. Whaley for his interesting & instructive lecture was proposed by Mr. Percy & seconded by Mr. Barton. Mr. Whaley in replying made a suggestion that the society should endeavour to get up an exhibition promising that he would do all he could to secure the help of brother Professionals in various parts of the country. The proposal was favorably received by those present
