them only their guns and rations for

SADIE MARTINOT'S STORY.

The first Christmas day distinctly
impressed upon my mind as a child
determined lily future step into the
artistic world. A curly haired mite,
robed in my baby "nightie," my arms
laden with toys and gifts of all des-
criptions, / gaZed from the old fash
Toned French windows of our home
with the wonder lit eyes of childhood
scanning the glistening snow banks
for a glimpse of Santa Claus, for in
those days we had snow banks at
Christmastide, miniature Alps higher
than my head.
There came a quick, impulsive ring
at the doorbell, and l scampered off to
bed, fearing my mammals scolding for
counting a cold.
So early a visit on Christmas day
was unusual, and my mother was quite
disturbed at the idea of a distinguish
ed looking gentleman, with whose
name she was not familiar, but who
insisted upon seeing her. He explain
ed that he was an artist and was lin
ishing his first picture for the Academy
of Design. He was not satisfied with
the face Of the child he had painted.
dow and begged my mother to allow
him to paint my face over that of the
other child My mother was natural
ly flattered, but cautious enough to
say that she must consult her hus-
band first and would let the artist
know his decision.
MY father was conversant with ar
tistic matters and Immediately recog-
nized the name of one of the most
promising artists of the day, and ac-
cordingly I posed for the prominent
figure of the picture, which was the
sensational feature and received the
first mention at the following season
exhibition.
This early contact with artistic sur
roundings developed the latent trend
of my imagination, and at the age of
IA embraced that branch of art which
seemed my predestined vocation.
