Photography has never been made more attractive to the public than it is at the present time, and now visitors to Wellington can secure the highest excellence in art for the inqafc moderate cost. An example of this is afforded by the quotation list of Messrs Price and Co., displayed in another column. This firm was one of the first to popularise photography by introducing inoJcrate chargee, and while their highly, meritorious work has not deteriorated in the slightest degree by this step, their business has increased to a remarkable extent. The

handsome vestibule on Lambton Quay has some striking likenesses in it, which denote both skill in the operating room and beauty of finish. Children's phonographs are made a specialty, and some most pleasingly happy effects are to be seen. Our Wellington representative has been invited to look through Messrs Price and Co.'s studio, and will later on record his impressions by the visit. The superintendent of physical edu" cation to the Wellington Education Board, M. de Mey, is novy on his periodical visit to this district.
