Excerpt from Anthony's Photographic Bulletin, 1894, Vol. 25 The photographers of Springfield, O recently made a concerted effort to close all photographic studios on Sundays. The City Council was petitioned to pass an ordinance closing up all photographic galleries and inflicting fines on all delinquents. Not hearing of any reply to the petition, we wrote to one of the signers asking for particulars. His reply runs: The petition was from the photographers only, and was signed by all of them. It was presented to our City Council and by them referred, ' and it will probably die. I am informed by one of the members that it would be useless to pass such an ordinance, as they would have no right to enforce it. So Springfield photographers must con tinne to pass Sundays away from their families and hunt for the humble dollar.
