THE STUDENT'S LUCK
(From "The Post's" Representative.) VANCOUVER, July 4,
A student of the University of British Columbia, like thousands of others, took snapshots of the King and Queen, as their car passed his vantage point, on the heights, overlooking the Gulf of Georgia. He was looking at one picture while travelling in a street car, and a lady, peering over his shoulder, admired it, and asked if she might have one. This gave him an idea. He set to work, printing the negative. Orders poured in from as far east as Ontario. The student and three members of his family, worked day and night. To date 20,000 prints have been made, and the demand is continuing. The student earned sufficient to pay for the balance of his term at University.
