So, after supper, I got together the things I had been advised to take with me, and arranged them on the bed, adding a few articles I had thought of all by myself. SO AFTER SUPPER I GOT TOGETHER THE THINGS I HAD BEEN ADVISED TO TAKE WITH ME AND ARRANGED THEM ON THE BED ADDING A FEW ARTICLES I HAD THOUGHT OF ALL BY MYSELF
saucers, two plates, two knives, and two spoons. If there had only been a bed in it, one need not have bothered about hotels at all. Young Smith, the Secretary of our Photographic Club, called at nine to ask me to take him a negative of the statue of the dying Gladiator in the Munich Sculpture Gallery. I told him that I should be delighted to oblige him, but that I did not intend to take my camera with me. "Not take your camera!" he said. "You are going to Germany--to Rhineland! You are going to pass through some of the most picturesque scenery, and stay at some of the most ancient and famous towns of Europe, and are going to leave your photographic apparatus behind you, and you call yourself an artist!" He said I should never regret a thing more in my life than going without that camera. I think it is always right to take other people's advice in matters where they know more than you do. It is the experience of those who have gone before that makes the way smooth for those who follow.
