At a church function each person
was required to wear conspicuously
upon his or her clothing some pictorial
or other device that should represent
in ''rebus" form the title of any we'll
known book, and all the others were
to guess at the book intended.
Paradise Lost" represented by
card upon which five dice had been
pasted, and from which two had evil

easily guessed. Hard Times" was no
puzzle. Neither was it hard to recog-
nize "a Pair of Blue Eyes," "Innocents
Abroad" vanity Fair nor "Uncle
Toms Cabin" in spite of the pictorial

you'd forget everything that you had
learned when It came to a showdown.
They wouldn't stand for real proposals
on the stage, and the reason we make
love so well Is that we don't care for

our attention to the lovemaking
"When the right time comes you'll
know It, and you won't get down on
your knees and say BE NINE be miner
You'll just gather her In, and It's all
over before you realize it,"
Bennington accepted the cigars that
Wisner thrust upon him, and Wisner
went back to the store happy in the
possession of expert opinion. He puz-
zled over the comment through the
day, and when Lottie came In to see
about some dress lining he gazed hun
grily at the flushed face and wondered
when the right time would come.
Apparently 1t was not the right time
yet for Lottie left the store with
bundle under her arm, and his nearest
approach to sentiment had been TO
cut the price of the lining 2 cents a
yard.
He thought of dozen clever
speeches he might have made, but not
until she had gone.
He was still thinking them over as
he dressed the window that evening.
Wisner made a point of frequent
changes in the display, and every Fri
day evening he fastened a canvas
hn 1of oil
changed the dressing running out
many times to observe the effect be-
fore he pulled down the inner curtains
and took down the screen, content
that the Saturday shoppers would be
attracted by his display.
He had just commenced to dress the
window after removing the old stock
when one corner Of the screen was
! lifted and Lottie's smiling face was
seen through the glass.
Wisner smiled and nodded in reply
to her greeting, and he was about to
beckon her to wait until he could join
| her on the sidewalk when his hand
struck the stool on which rested the
new price tags. He caught up the top
one and pinned it on his coat striking
an attitude in imitation of the dummy
forms.
Lottie laughed at the sign, which
read, "a Real Bargain at the Price"
and the end of the screen dropped.
For one awful moment Wisner
thought that she had been disguised
by the clownish appeal
He could not know that even eyes
that are gray and unromantic can tell
their story of love. Lottie had read
their plea, and moment later Wisner
heard the store door open and close
again, and a moment later Lottie's
face appeared at the door to the win
dow.
Il think I'll take that bargain, Sid
ney." she said as her cheeks were
dyed n deeper red. you can wrap it
up, and I'll take it home with me-to
talk to father"
The bargain sprang from the win
dow, but it was half an hour before it
wrapped itself up-in its overcoat-
and was taken home to talk to Homer
Vincent
Il thought you couldn't resist bar
gain" he jubilated as they hurried
along the street.
Lattie gave the strong arm a little
hug. you'd be dear at any price,"
she cooed.

Art Notes
BY ELIZABETH wAGGONER

n URING the month of October the
~ Blanchard Art gallery is housing
~ the eleventh annual exhibition
of the work of Southern California
artists, one of the important events
of the year in the local art world.
While it is a disappointment that two
or three of our strongest painters are
not exhibiting, the showing may be
considered a fairly representative one,
and is so catholic in character that all
tastes may be gratified. AS in most
California exhibitions, landscape pre-
dominates, although there is showing
of figure studies that is unusual.
Prominent among these is a delightful
interior by John Hubbard Rich, girl
Reading" in which the charm of the
slender girlish figure with its we'll
modelled dark head and the intimate
indoor atmosphere are admirably eX-
pressed, and the accessories of pol
ished table and deep green bowl, with
it's color repeated in a subdued tone
in the background, add their share to
most harmonious whole. "Waiting,"
by the same artist, is crisp and vivid
bit of painting, its fascinating fountain
and surrounding garden so full of in
terest that we are apt to feel that 1t
would have been quite as good a pic
ture without the figure. The "Por-
trait of Mr. r." is a noteworthy ex-
ample of the convincing portraiture in
which this painter is at his best.
A sketch by Jean Mannheim, called
"The New Hat" is as good an illus
tration of lie premier coup in painting
as one often sees. and the Nude

Study" on the same wall shows mas
terly handling of flesh tones.
new name among the painters Is
that of Joseph Sub, a recent arrival
from New York city. His figure piece,
boy with Kettle" is treated with a
tenderness and subtlety that approach
poetic vision, and several small
landscapes from his brush possess
much of the same elusive quality.
1t is in the landscapes that we find
the dominant note of the exhibition,
a marked breadth and freedom of ex-
preston distinguishing many of the
canvases.
Ralph Mocine contributes a group
showing a departure from his former
methods in the effect of sunlight pro-
duced, in contrast to his creations
which heretofore have been singularly
low and musical in tone. "The Hill
and Late Afternoon" breathe the very
spirit Of summer, and the canvas with
a sun-bathed foreground, showing an
alluring bit of the San Fernando val
lev beyond the splendidly suggested
eucalyptus trees so distinctive a
note in Californias landscape, is one
of the striking features Of the ex-
hibition.
Hanson Puthuff is seen in a number
of landscapes distinguished for broad
and virile technic. 1.-THE Road to the
Valley" and 1.-THE Groves are sin
cere interpretations of nature, in which
we feel the solidity of the earth, and
"EIesa oaks" is admirable in the
handling of its superb trees.
Nell Danely Brooker shows her YER
satility as an artist in her handling
of oils as a medium, varying from the
delicacy of her color etchings. Her
painting sycamore Grove" is one of
the strongest things shown, and the
colorful little sketch THE Vicarage"
possesses a quaint charm of its own.
