At press-club dinner in Providence,
one,of the speakers discussed newspa-
per art. He claimed That art had be-
come an important factor in then
papers; but unlike ancient Greek art,
where the artist strove for a certain
ideal or type, the type in modern
newspaper art is already produced,
and one type with variations may
serve for a vast number OF pictorial
representations. A picture which to-
day may represent Lydia Pinkham
may tomorrow represent George
Eliot. While the newspaper may get
along very well with heads and archi-
lecture, it does not very often touch
landscape nor marine views, although
the attempt is made at times to indi-
cate the position of various objects,
such as an ash barrel, or give an OUT
line view OF the Genesta or Puritan.
