smiling, "but I'm sure you are none of

which was large brown loaf and a
pitcher of cider.

She glanced shrewdly at his face, and
at his clothes, which, If shabby, were
not those of laboring man, and an
swered placidly:
"My Blasius does all that-and my

the little old woman, equally.
He said no more. lie simply fell 20.
He could have wept or shouted for

grew light as the loaf diminished. A
sense of security and peace pervadcd

and smiled at the little old woman, as
she hustled herself about and served
his coffee, and fetched some beer, and
took evident delight in the dauntless-
ness OF his appetite. "Well. you are
hungry" she exclaimed admiringly.
"Ratberl" he agreed. continuing
doughtily. The more he ate the better

ART ASSOCIATION LECTURE
Last Of The Years Course Of Talks Given
Last Evening
Mr.. Malcolm Macleod Makes an Interesting
Address Upon Character Studies Of Art.
lists Modeis-Lsrge Audience

The finale of the seasons series Of
art lectures under the auspices of the
Southern California Art association,
was given last evening by Mr.. Malcolm
Macleod in the School Of Art and De-
sign on Second street.
Notwithstanding the crowding at
fractions of the week. a large audience
was in attendance, all of whom lis
tended with the finest appreciation to
the address, which was in fact an in
formal talk. frequently humorous and
wholly interesting, bearing chiefly on
the characteristics of life models as seen
in the work of the art school. The lee
ture was entitled Our Life Glass Models
illustrated. Back Of the speaker was
hung picturesque group of portraits
painted or penciled by the pupils. en-
bodying illustrations Of characteristic
faces of all nationalities, not emitting
John" nor Bridget" Sketches of the
histories of the models were given, many
humorous and some pathetic.
Mr.. Macleod particularly drew atten-
ton to the fact that beauty of face or
form was not the primary object in Sc
Letting model for a life class. On the
contrary, he explained that the most
effective work, and the most congenial
to the pupils had been accomplished
from models who had an interesting his
tory. The connoiseur never failed to
discern the imprint of success or the
scar of defeat from life's battles on the
countenance; the soul made the face.
and this the pupils were trained to dis
cover and portray.
Comments of very gratifying nature
were passed by several artists of note
upon the work of the class; both upon
that which illustrated the lecture and
the numerous other specimens of merit
that adorned the walls of the artistic
suite OF rooms Of the art school,
DR.. Fletcher was present; and it was
the open sentiment of the gathering that
both the president of the art association.
the Hon. Stephen M. White, and the
vice-president of the organization. DR..
Fletcher, have been the public recipients
of recent honors.
At the close of the term of the school
will be held at the Chautauoua. Long
Beach, beginning with July 18th.
