Nm IOR GEORGIA TIMKEN FRY

native land after eight years study and
practice in Europe. mostly in Paris.
They were husband and wife, John III.
and Georgia Timken Fry. They had
met first in the art school in st. Louis
where Georgia Timken was a pupil,
Mr.. Fry a professor. Each loved art
more than anything else till they found
each other: then they loved their art
quite as well as before, but a new JOY
and light were thrown around 1t and
into IL by the affection for each other.
Lovers, chums and comrades they be-
came and are TO this day. For more
than a dozen years this pair of artists
have painted, studied and travelled to-
gether. never wearying OF each other
because of the bright link OF sympa-
thetic work that joins them.
They will now probably remain in
their own land. For the sake of the
land we may hope they will. for the
exquisite skill and technique displayed
in their pictures are an object lesson
lamentably needed in America.
Each has a speciality. Mr.. Fry paints
the nude or classically draped human
figure with a power and finish to be
seen nowhere outside of France except
among artists who have learned how to
10 il in France.
Mrs. Fry paints landscapes and ami
mails. especially sheep. with striking
cower and fidelity. Georgia Timken is
western woman. tall and noble of
stature. with the frank. charming. nat
ural manner characteristic of ladies of
che west and south. Her childhood was
lassed in the suburbs of st. Louis. In
lians camped now and then near her

when she did not mean to be an artist
or when she did not make drawings.

In truth she was always drawing"
Her first charcoal sketch, made when
she was six years old, was landscape
with a tree I'm the foreground. To
painting I'm that infantile day she d.d
not aspire. IL was an art she wor-

but her child brain got somehow the
impression that painting pictures was
an occupation only fit for the angels
and that only angels could do H. How
or why she came to imagine this she
cannot now tell.
When she was old enough, she went
10 the public school. Here again she
was always drawing" Fortunately
the drawing teacher OF the school was
one who herself knew something. a
German lady and an artist. This wise
teacher recognized the little girls gift
and encouraged IL. After leaving the
public school the choice was laid be-
fore Georgia OF taking the course i'm
Vassar or becoming an artist. Artist
she decided 10 be without thinking
overnight OF il.
She attended the excellent art school
OF Washington university, st. Louis,
and after that went TO New York Fol-
lowing the New York training was a
severe course OF study and practice in
Europe. one of her teachers was Har-
ry Thompson. the Englishman. About
this time the girl artist exhibited her

The Automobile Frown.

1 see that beauty specialists are max
ing a deal of money out of the automo-
bile frown. This is distinct contrac-
ton of the muscles of the forehead
caused by the involuntary drawing
down OF the eyebrows to protect the
eyes from the wind and dust.
Then. too. / dare say some. OF the lines
are caused by the ever present fear
that the machine may cavort. explode
with a loud "chug," or turn fliphaps in
the air after the pleasant little way of
automobiles. Anyway, it's a great boon
to the beauty doctors now that the
scorchers hump and the bicycle jaw
have gone out of style.

is BEAUTY uNLucKY?
New York.

IL seems TO be so. The beautiful her.
oine in novel suffers many agonies,
and her character is usually drawn
from life. IL is her beauty which has
attracted the villain, like the bright
flame which attracts the moth, and
made him act as "A brute TO her.
The penalty for being beautiful would
seem TO be more exacting and more dis
agreeable than the disappointments ex-
perienced by the ugly. Every pretty
girl is fattered and tempted. every
pretty girl is made miserable through
her beauty unless size happens to be
possessed of rare wisdom and a pow
erful will. The quiet. happy life is the
gift of the plain girl.

During the past season notable
survey has been carried to compile
ton in western Colorado by the
United States Geological Survey
For number Of years the ques ION
oi the practicability Of diverung wa
ter from the Grand Canyon of the
tiunni-on River, for the reciama-
tinn OF lands in the Jncompabgre
Valley. has been periodically agl-
tated. Previous gagings and neas-
uremenls by the Geological Survey
and local engineers had shown that
the waters OF the Gunnlson We're
sufficient in quantity, and the be-
OF the stream high enough IN eleva-
ton. to make the plan feasible.
This seasons work was devoted TO
finding the shortest route and the
probable cost Of construction OF a
diversion canal. Owing to the fact
that the water must be taken from
an unexplored canyon OF abo't two
thousand feet in depth, and OF un-
known dangers, the work proved TO
be extremely difficult. 1t was,
however. successfully accomplished,
the canyon being Thoroughly ex-
plored aud photographed by Mr.. A.
+. Fellows, whose work stands a.
one OF the most daring and difficult
achievements Of the year in the an
mails Of the survey. With one com.
panion Mr.. Fellows succeeded In
traversing the canyon. which expe-
rienced explorers have thus tar
failed in doing, by being swept over
the falls and rapids, and by climb
ing along the precipitous walls,
finally coming out at the lower end,
after days and nights OF hardship.
The results Of the survey show that
a tunnel about six miles in length
is necessary to bring the water from
the river to the arid lands, and thai
the cost will be well within the lin
it, Of reasonable outlay. 1h'
