Many of these have been made especially for Mother's Day giving—and it is Dad who pays the bill. However, your Dad will agree with you that a lovely picture by Underwood & Underwood is one of the most if not the most appreciated and cherished gift you could present Mother. Although price is sec- ondary when considering a gift for Mother—do you know that you may procure photographs by these famous artists for as low as $20 the dozen? This is an excellent time also to insist upon your Mother hav- ing a picture made for you, and as a convenience to her, have Underwood's artists come to vour home to make the sitting— there is no additional charge for this service. 1f you are among those unfor- tunate ones who haven't your mother—may we ask if you have a picture memory worthy of her? If you have any little kodak picture or old faded pho- tograph which yvou particularly !ike, bring it in to Underwood & Underwood and have them make a beautiful portrait.
