Y. M. G. A. LECTURES
The First of Series Was Given Last
Evening

The initiatory entertainment of the
weeks events at the Young Men s
Christian associa tion rooms was given
last night. and was a success in every
way. Lincoln Missley had made very
elaborate preparations to illustrate by
experiment the different systems of arc
lighting. He showed by a stereopticon
the different processes by which the arc
light is obtained. He also showed the
latest long burning light which lasts a
hundred hours without renewal of the
carbons.
w. E. Chapir the illustrator of the
Times, then gave brief address on. the
art of newspaper illustration. He said
in part: Wood engraving is very old,
having been invented by the Chinese
1140 B. c. Gutenberg used 1t in the
foundation of his work 1t and metal
were also used by the Egyptians and
the Romans in their public documents is
and books.
The lockwood tree, growing on the
shores of the Baltic. is the material Of
which our wood cuts are made. In 1921
eiectroplating was discovered, or in,-
vented, by Adams. This process has
largely taken the place of wood engrav-
ing, as the cuts are capable of being
used for an. almost unlimited number of
Impressions. The speaker described the
process Of photogravure. and gave ii as
his opinion that within the next five or
ten years the papers would be giving
illustrations photographed in colors.
Mr.. Chaplin then gave some partic-
ularly practical advice to those who ex-
pected to become newspaper artists and
admonished them TO be very thorough
on their foundation work. He
closed by saying: "Art is an
earnest, intense thing. and the student
who would win must work for love of
it. Such one will attain height
which genius never reached"
Tonight a musical and literary pro-
gram Of high merit will be given, to
which the public is invited, and for
which no charge will be made.
