PHOTOGRAPH SHOWS MIGHIGAN'S SHORES Will Be 264 Feet Long and Will Represent Nine Years’ Work Chicago, July 2.—A two hundred and fifty mile trip through the sand dunes of Indiana, the Calumet lake region and the woods of Illinols, made possible to the Chicagoan un- able to do more than take a street car trip to a museum—that is the aim of Frank M. Woodruff, curator of the Free National History museum in Lin- coln park. He will accomplish his purpose by setting up an ethnologi- cal group in the museum which, when completed, will be 264 feet long, rep- resent nine years effort and be a pan- orama of Chicago's environs from Miller, Indiana, In the dune region, to' the north woods above the city, & stretch of 250 miles. The work has gone on for four years already, and will take five years more to complete, Photographic Backgrounds Take Time A part of the work requiring much time is the photographic backgrounds. These Mr, Woodruff prepared him- self, and he has blended them into a natural setting which makes the ex- hibit appear to be a scene picked from nature, The plcture forming the background of one group, 96 feet long, by 10 feet high, is the largest photo- graph ever made and is composed of & number of pictures enlarged from eight' by 10 Inch plates to pictures 111 feet by 10 feet, all cut, trim- med and joined together so that they appear to be one continuous nature view. Typical of the care being taken in the preparation of the exhibit, in the group now being constructed is a tree, each of its thousand or more leave a separate detail. Months will be required, Mr, Woodruff estimated, | to complete the work on the tree| alone. In the foreground will be placed animals native of the region before civilization drove them into other retreats. A herd of bison will graze | on a hilltop. Foxes, rabbits, birds| and even reptiles will be placed in | natural poses to complete the nature scene. | OLDEST BELL MAKER DIES Troy, N.
