To us this one, “Blues In The Night”, was like relieving some of th? most en- ioyable years that we’d ever sixiut. To us it wasn’t just a story, it was like iL Ke»;ond helping of those davys part. Being back with those fellows again—sharing their joys, their laugb.s, their heartaches, , those good “kicks” and tliose bad “kic.ks”, niecting other guys wilh the *«ime ideas, and all of thow SfiHsions.

No. you probably won’t. You say guys like that aren’t aroiind anymore. Hut they are they’ll always be, we know ’em, other guys around here know ’em.

First the photogra pher cotnes and takes pictures of everylMxly that he and the staff t!an beg and W'a^'lay into tlie im provised studia. Tliiit is no little iob in itself. Then the r»hotf)grapher comes 'ick with the ('.-(lofs and another Afficult of circum.stances begins. l'h doors are ru.shed by studentN •iager to get their pictures which must flatter most of them l>eyond all reason or they complain to the high hfiavens. Aii of this is ex tremely trying ti> thotK- who are doing their utmost to please every one ]K)s8ibie. Next in order comes the che\k- ing back in of the proofs and the taking of orders for the finished I)OrtraitR. Now the wmplaining begins in full for;e. “1 don’t like ’em!” tiiey say. “Why can’t 1 liave ’em taken over ?” “I’ve gain- ('(1. weight and they don’t look lik‘ me.” “When can we get ’em back?” “'Fhat’s too late.” “J for got mine, (/an I bring ’em tomor row.” All this time the staff and the studio reprewntjitives are do ing their i:tm»st to quell the dis turbance ami make eveyrlwHly as ha(»py as |>oKRible—which :.t times is not very happy, much to the re gret of the staff. Then ju.st liefore Christmas the portraits are returned and every- iKxly goes hom*^ happy in spite of th ir pn'vious protests. Ah ! Spring! 'I’he time of young hearts and love — and more pic tures. More swwt ta'k and^ i>er- suading of the would-be bashful to come and be, flattered. Frankly, !h‘y just w'anted to l»o lx?gged all along. /;'veryoni- wants their pic ture rnaile, and at the same time refuses to c(HHHTate. Then tliey stah the staff in the hack when some minor detail is incorn^ct due to their (>wn lack of intereat and cootieration. Fach yi'ar this harpcns. Kach y«r new methols are rropos«id to correct the previous i;;.istakes, and each yc^.ar new difficulti'js arise. The staff works on an.f keeps on trviT/' to make as many happ.y as they cjiii. MaylH' they won’t make YOU as happy as they would like. If not, try to understand that they are human. That is all tiiat they ask! All Jndmn'Ttamed f?hort-Ciike .-wan (traftiKl. into the a-rniy.
