This is an ad- vance of nearly $35,000,000 over the figure of $215,763,000 for 1927. The increase is largely due to heavier influx of motorists from the United States, the reports shows. For 1928 the total expenditure in this cat- egory it placed at $167,384,000, as against $134,426,000 in 1927. Expenditures by Canadian tourists in other countries were slightly de- creased according to the calculations. Comparative figures are: 1928, $103,- 245,000; 1927, $103,782,000. The increasing importance of the tourist traffic in Canada is shown by the following bureau estimates by years: 1924, $158,876,000; 1925, $177, 882,000; 1926, 186,791,000; 1927, $215,- 763,000; 1928 $250,501,000. The following tabulation gives a comparison between 1927 and 1928 in the various classes of tourists: 9 1927 Via ocean ports $10,596,000 $11,072,000 Motorists from United States by provinces: 1928 1927 6,089,000 4,913,000 31,454,000 79,560,000 1,885,000 1,072,000 762, 561,000 17,531,000 14,981,000 167,384,000 134,426,000 72,521,000 70,265,000 Grand total ... 250,501,000 215,763,000 For tourists entering Canada by motor car the bureau estimates the expenditure under 24-hour permits at $7 a car; 60-day permits, $156.35 per tourist ; and six month permits, $560 per tourist. In 1928, 2,500 tourists in the 60-day! permit class were circular- ized in order to strike the average, Figures were also taken from steam- ship and railway companies in per- forming the calculation. A revision in method was made in 1924 and since then the officers of the bureau of sta- tistics regard their figures as fairly accurate. T0 DEMONSTRATE NEW PHOTOGRAPHY Concealed Camera Works Through Series of Con- nected Lenses Maritimes Quebec Ontario Manitoba Saskatchewan . Alberta B. Columbia ... . y rail, steamer . New Haven, Conn., June 12.-- Photography of a new kind soon is to be demonstrated at Yale Uni- versity, where the person photo- graphed sits looking at a mirror in- stead of at a camera. When the sitter has exactly the expression he thinks he likes best, he presses a button in the termin- al of a cord in his hand, and the photograph is taken. The camera, concealed complete- ly, works through a series of re- flecting lenses to take the photo- graph as if it had been pointing directly from within the mirror at which the sitter looked. The art in the new method lies in substituting the ordinary feeling of artificial stiffness with some- thing so fascinating to do that the "look natural" expression is said to be easy. Not art, but science was the purpose behind creation of the ae- vice. It was invented by Luther G. Simjian, micro-photographer of the Yale school of medicine. It was the result of several years experi- menting to develop something to enable psychologists to obtain "natural" photographs of facial ex- pression. The person to be photographed steps into a booth, which has a sys- tem of mirrors in front and at both sides, booths in clothing stores, where the customer sees the new suit from all angles. The photographic booth is fair- ly large, nine feet long and five feet wide, with a comfortable chair, On a level with the sitter's tace are the mirrors, one directly ahead and three on each side. Whichever way he turns, he -e looking at a mirror that shows him exactly the angle from full face to side view, that the camera will catch. No photographer need be pres- ent, or even touch the concealed apparatus, once it has been loaaea. Pressure of the button not only takes the picture, but starts an au- tomatic mechanism that switches off the lights momentarily and re- loads the camera ready for another "shot," 80 that the sitter may vane another view or expression, in the best time-honored manner of por- trait photography. Seven views are possible. The device can be operated by a photo- grapher if desires, without the sit- ter knowing when the picture is taken. FOUR-YEAR-OLD STRUCK Toronto, June 12.--Struck by a motor truck at Queen and Sum- ach streets last night, Albert Cox, aged 4, of 530 Queen street east, suffered severe scalp injuries.

Helen, playing on the jetty running out into he lake from the property of W. G. Jaffray, tumbled off into the water. Above her, her little companions screamed in fright, One of them, Kathleen Mclean, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. E, McLean of Second avenue, remained cool enough to devise a means of rescue. Securing a long stick and hook- ing it into the garments of the ap- parently drowning girl, who was being drawn by a current out into the lake, the McLean girl held ha head above the water and close to the edge of the jetty. The child, overcome with cold and gulps of water, became unconscious, but still Kathleen McLean held fast to the long stick. Realizing the seriousness of the situation, George Wilkes, a lad of about 8 years, sent his young sis ter Ann in search of her father, George Wilkes, sr., of First aven- ue. Mr. Wilkes responded to the call immediately, made his way to the dock and plunged in, not stop- ping to drop any of his garments. He was able to bring the child out, unconscious but still alive.
