a NEGRO SCUT1PTRESS.
Kansas City Journal

Kansas City Journal. :.
The current issue of The World
Today contains an interesting article
dealing with the artistic attainmepts
of Meta Warrick. a Philadelphia
Sculptress, recognized throughout
the country as one of the true artists
of the nation. The author Of The
ClanSman" Or the pitchfork states
man Of South Carolina would of
course consider himself everlastingly
disgraced if he shook hands with her,
for she is NeSress. The only trace
of Caucasion blood in her ancestry
is from the white husband of a far
elf semi barbarian "princess,' Of
which Miss Warrick claims to be
descendant. But her ancestors Of re-
cent generations were slaves and she
herself was truck gardeners child
in the environs Of Phila delphia
The art critics have enthusiastic
ally declared that she bids fair to out
ROdin ROdin. the French master
who has So signally befriended her
with his counsel. The negrophobes
would probably think that NJ. Rodin
Of whom they probably never heard
had very little self-respect to receive
Miss Warrick as 4 pupil, but NJ. Ro-
Gin is himself hailed as the Michael
Angelo Of today. When he permits
anyone to call on him, it must be
someone Of artistic account, and
when he calls on anyone, that ones
artistic standing is assured.
Miss Warrick is the ScllDtress Of
the group at the jamestown expoei-
ton Depicting the progress and de-
nelopment Of the Negro race since
the first Negroes were landed at
Jamestown IN 1919. This group has
been highly praised, though it was
executed with such haste that it can
| hardly be fairly compared with her
other works. She has had the dis
| tlngui5hed honor Of two examples Of
her work in the Paris Salon in one
year. She delights in the horrible,
the tragic and the grotesoue. AS a
student her best piece was a head Of
Meduaa, and among her most famous
pieces is "The Thief on the Cross. -
She has not yet attempted bust Of
senator Iillman or Of The Rev. ThOs.
| Dixon.
Miss Warricks career is one OF in
ep'ratioh to the race TO which she be-
longs, and though she is only an in
dlVldual, yet her achievements go a
long way toward refuting the drecla-
rAtions Of such authors as Or. r. w.

BLIND MANS BUFF.
This Common Game is of Great An
tiquity and French Origin.

THIS Common Game ls of Great An
tiquity and French Origin.
Blind mans buff is OF French origin
and OF very great antiquity, having
been introduced into England in the
train Of the Norman conquerors. Its
French name, Colin Maillard," was
that Of brave warrior, the memory
Of whose exploits still lives in the
chronicles Of the middle ages.
In the year 800 Liege. reckoned
among its valiant chiefs one Jean Co
lin. He acquired the name Maillard
from bis chosen weapon being q NAL
let. wherewith in battle he used liter
ally to crush his opponents.
In one Of the feuds which were Of
perpetual recurrence In those times he
encountered the Count de Touraine in
pitched battle, and, 80 runs the story,
In the first onset Colin Maillard lost
both bis eyes.
He ordered his esquire to take him
In the thickest Of the fight, and, furi-
ously brandishing his mailet, did such
fearful execution that victory soon de-
clared itself for him.
When Robert of France heard Of
these feats Of arms he lavfshed favor
and honors upon Colin, and so great
was the fame Of the exploit that 1t was
commernorated in the pantonimic rep
resentation that formed part Of the
rude dramatic performance Of the age.
BY degrees the children learned to act
1t for themselves, aud 1t took the form
of familiar sport.
The bindfolded pursuer, as, with
bandased eyes and extended hands, he
gropes for victim to pounce upon, In
some degree repeats the action Of Co
lin Maillard, the tradition of which is
also traceable in the name "blind
mans buff."-London>M A. p.

A FASHION FROM WAR,
How Flat Watches Took Place Of tho
Old Time "Turnips"

How Flat Watches Took Place of tho
Old Time "Turnips."
When the neat man takes unto him
self watch as thin as parchment he
little thinks that that thin watch re-
suits from army regulations.
Up to the, time of the allies taking
Paris the ordinary watch was convex
IN shape and called from it's outline a
"turnip." The officers of the Russian
and other armies objected to this be-
cause its buibous form made the uni
form OF man on parade look untdy,
whether 1t were carried in the coat or
the fob. In Paris, however, they found
that the watchmakers Of the Palais
Royal had contrived thermometer
which got over the difficulty.
Flat watches We're the fashion in
Paris. The English when they ap-
peared In the streets of the French
capital marched. in not in gala dress
such as the others wore, but in the
raiment which they had WON on cam
paign. Great was the impression
which their ,,habiliments created, but
they at. once adopted the smart fiat
watch and, brought it back to England
for. our own Ranufa ctqrers to copy
London Standard. . ....,,. ...

ONE MORE WITTY Us.

All the fools are not dead yet. In

The structures the New York Sun
has repeatedly placed on "Merri-
mac" Hobson. he of Alabama and a
kissing one at that, have not at all
times to lis seemed fair. But the
Sun is wise old shining thing, If
there was left any doubt as to Hob
sons unasSuring state Of mind i'm
mediately it vanished with his latest
proposition. Hobson is great on pro-
positions. May We not call him the
nations Proposition?
Being now a member of Congress,
to which he was elected before whis-
wey was voted out Of Alabama, the
kissed and kissisg hero thinks it en-
Cumbent upon him to make for him
self a name Just why ne wants to
write that name with folly's pen in
stead of with the delible point of
WISDOM is not for us. 1t is hardly
serves notice on the American peo-
pie that he will introduce a bill as
soon as Congress meets 20 pension
Confederate veterans out Of the nat
ional treasury, which they fought so
hard to destroy. So preposterous
asd, ridiculous a measure needs no
discussion; it is really deserving Of
no serious attention.. But it was
hard, it was impossible, to refrain
from reminding our readers that all
the fools are not dead yet. And it
will afford u.s. no Htt}e qualification
when Hobson meets his obvious end,
to call up that We were first among
those to indicate his saddening con-
dition Of mind. Only crazy man
would talk about pensioning the re-
bells.

Negro who lands" here or there
or anywhere, shall be of the stun Of
which the best in the race is made.
