The riddle of the sphinx. which has
perplexed philosophers for ages. is in
a fair way to be solved in this city at
least. This remarkable achievement,
which if it is accomplished, will be
brought about by women, contem-
plates the aboIishing of the sphinx.
and with it, of course, the riddle. The
movement under way is not. however,
the result of piqucd feminine curiosity
but a part of the campaign for the
Improvement of public art apprecia-
ton undertaken by the Municipal Art
society. The reason for the propoNd
adjustment of the Sphinx is due to
its complex nature. which the would
be eliminators hold exerts an extreme
ly undesirable influence of the art
concepts of the young. The movers
for the adjustment of decorative pur-
poses from the city of the ancient
figure cited the case of two boys who
recently were arrested for indulging
in D fight in an effort TO decide the
identity of the sphinx. one Of the
prococious youths insisted hat the
figure in question a that Of a dog
because of it's tail, while the other
held that il was a oma basing his
argument on the face. Even blows
could not settle the matter aud so the
art workers have decided that any
figure exerting such an influence could
not be made an instrument in the de
velopment Of artistic appreciation and
should be abolished. As q result II
would seem that women are about TO
get even with the banling sphinx by
excluding her. % il. from the city.
