Japanese Painting.

The Japanese, with their natural,

sought In their art TO mirror what a
great painter and critic has termed
"men's primorlial predictions" Art.
however, that seeks to embody pleas-
ures founded on the unchanging prop
critics OF human nature must have a
past as well as future, must be able
to look backward as well as forward.
Not ones life labor, but that of many
generations, is required. No people
have better understood this than the
Japanese. They have also clearly per.
ceived that no art that is not true to
the changeless element in man can en-.
dure, while, on the other hand, any
subject, however trivial, can be made
eternally attractive II only treated in
accordance with aesthetic law.
Japanese painting delights us by its
delicate fancy, its poetry, its freedom,
Its spirit, but what gives these quail
ties special and enduring charm. what
makes the play of fancy never wearl.

Is that they find expression in and
through framework of design so fine.

MONDAY AS WASH DAY.
IL May BE n Legacy to Us From the
MayiOwer Pilgrims.


Did you wonder how it came about
that in our country all families think
they must do their washing on Mon
day?
The Maytiower drifted into Massa-
chusetts bay and lay at anchor outside
in little sheltered cove The fathers
had gone ashore to see IL there was
place suitable for landing. The morn.
ing was Monday, and 1t seemed that
the old fashioned desire to tidy up
came over the hearts of the good house
keeping women of the little band.
The women were rowed to shore, and
In the cold. salty water Of the bay this
Monday in November, 1920, the first
ladies in America washed and scrubbed
In the good English fashion too Fires
were built, water heated and clothes
spread out on the trees and snow.
When all was finished to the satisfac-
ton of the women they sighed with
pleasure and said, cleanliness Is akin
to godliness."
Do you know this is history? Yes, 1t
is, though not as dry as history some
times is. Anything Is history that
shows the spirit Of the times. and this
wash day in America showed the spirit
