worth the doing?
However notwithstanding these distin-
guished absentees. it is very evident the
collection is selected with great discrimi-
nation and judgment, and the American
art shown in Paris this year will prove
that this country is at last able to present
collection of pictures which for skill and
artistic sensitiveness must command the
sincere respect Of the nations. 1t is under

There is much hustling and excitement
about the local studios at present, for just
zone week remains in which to finish the
important pictures which are to make up
the annual exhibition Of the Society Of
Washington Artists.
Discouraging as some of the previous
shows have been, the artists invariably
gather themselves together and paint pic
lures for the annual and paint them
with as much enthusiasm as if they were
sure of great things. 1t is pleasant to
record that the prospects this year are
more than usually good for high class
exhibition and substantial patronage.
Every year the interest grows. The pubic

That great successes often have their
origin based on slight margins is a fact

brakes and couplings, the use Of liquid
