on their own account has been greatly
increased. Kari Bitter again has charge
of the decorative architectural sculp-
ture. Miss Enid Yandell will agair
model her Daniel Boone, likewise two
other heroic figures. Various other
portrait statues are making. and on
these several young women artists are
engaged. One of them is Miss Janet
Scudder, now of New York, but for
meriy of Cincinnati, where she began
her studies. Miss Evelyn Longman
is another sculptor who has received
commission for work at st. Louis.
on which she is busily engaged.
But there is other work, strong and
virile, apart from portrait modelling,
that has been given to young women.
The women who have the ST. Louis
groups in hand are nearly all quite
young; therefore the best Of their lives
and achievement is yet before them.
Miss Edith Barretto Stevens is making
the pediment for the main entrance to
the Liberal Arts building.
One of the important commissions at
the St Louis fair is that awarded to
Melva Beatrice Wilson. She has been

the spandrils represents the wheel

Miss Wilson is also from Cincinnati.
Young women artists from the south

saved to pay the girls expenses. She
is only twenty three years old now. In
Paris she worked desperately. One
day she took to the artist Rodin a
small statue of her making which
proved to be the making of her, for it
gave the famous artist a thrill" and
no mistake. 1t represented man eat

largely in the depletion of the weird
