tures in -the press had not
arrived in his time. The "dean
of Huron photographers" never
tried -to develop that market.
On a far,West tour for One of
the railways, he was confronted
with the. opportunity to photo-
graph a Duokhoaornudist par•
ade. He did not neglect it, but
never offered the result for
publication. He did not'. live `to
see similat pictures going th6
rounds of Canadian newspapers
as a 'natter of routine.
Mr. Sallow never neglected,
much less abandoned his por.
trait work, nor did he allow
the demands of his profession
to 'crowd out community and
church seuvice. In the ups'tair
studio at the corner of Montreal
street and the Squ'are,"he turn. •
ed 'out first-class work, and
when absent on distar(t assign-
ments always had someone
there to carry on. In making
studig portraits . ,he had a.,» pl.
easant and at the "same time •
businesslike manner; he con.
centrated On the subject, the
lighting and background, to the
virtual exclusion of smalltalk.
Goderich residents recall the
changing group of photos which
filled .a • show window near his
studio door. Closed now for
years, the window remains a
reminder of the artist .whose
work was so long admired.
• What he strove for, that "dis.
tinctive quality" of which he
once wrote, he achieved, as qua-
lified critics agree. At the time
of his • death one newspaper .ed••
itorial stated: "His landscape
studies, were photographic mos -
ter -pieces." Said another wri-
ter: "Here was a man who
leaves an indelible imprint on
the lives of the community in
which he lived and labored and
achieved worthwhile things."

What good is a wheel without spokes? Absolutely useless.

business is made up of many `'spokes", our merchandise, our •
service, our attitude„ our staff, etc. If any of these spokes falter
Our comp) to wheel of progress is threatened with collapse.
With 'these thoughts in mind we -fel we will meet with con -A
tinued success. We' feel we khow pretty well the needs of Goderich

courteous and cooperative and oL.r attitude is progressive.
