.
(This will cost about $2.00 to $5.00 ffom any stationel'y or 5 and 10 store.) Then y0u can determlne whal
classifications y0u will need tb do the work y0u want. Y0u can break down the categories into: Men

Animals, Chiltren. 8uildings, etc.The important thing is to have an Organized file of pictures yctl can useant bulld
