is the collection of colored reproduc-
tions, also by Prang. One is prepared to
find the photographs fine, the enlarge
ments strong and imposing, the casts
beautiful, but that any process short of
oil or water color painting should be
able to produce such delicate, true and
pleasing effects as are to be
found in these Prang prints, is nothing
short of an artistic miracle. Yet these
reproductions cost about 70 cents each.
They are purchased by the league for
the purpose of relieving the absence of
color in the other objects, and also for
the more positive reason that children
find such intense enjoyment in looking
at beautiful colors. OF course these col
ored reproductions are not master
pieces but they lend themselves to the
color schemes in the various rooms
where they are to be placed without
breaking any artistic laws, and the ap-
peal they make to the imagination is
very direct and strong.
The list of the titles of these pictures
and Of the names of the artists follows:
Ross Turner, Sunset. Cape Ann; Rog-
ers, Scotch terrier; Rogers, My model;
Novel;, Corn and apples; Parker, Wild
roses; Harlow, On Connecticut shores;
Harlow, Old dollhouse, Martha's Vine
yard; Harlow Snug Harbor; Silsbee,
Roses; Pope, Foxhound; Poppy slum6er-
song The Viking ship, The Columbus
caravels.
Finally, there are the casts. The ex-
cellent taste which has been displayed
in the selection of the other objects Of
art is again seen here, and of the IL
casts in the collection, there is none that
one could wish away. All are admira-

Of which has been given as a memorial
to Mrs. Darrah An interesting eXper-
iment in color has been tried with a
Mother and Child" by Donatello. The
faces have been given a flesh tint, the
1raperies are a tender green. 1t was
done by Miss Jeanie Lea Southwick.
Another has been colored by Mr. Frank
j. Darrah but it is not likely that more
will be done, as the colors are extreme
Iy delicate to manage successfully, and
the old ivory of the casts is lovely with
out the addition of any color The Par
