This explanation of Artist Wertz's

made by that paper and can be taken
as authoritative: Three years ago Mr..
WertZ came to the Beacon with I'M

was a dry goods clerk when the Beacon
discovered his indescribable artistic
ability; at that time he was what
might be called an unspoiled artist. Mr..
Wertz went to work with great Vigor
and no work before ever was done like
the work that Mr.. Wertz did for the
Beacon. 1t had the quality of being
different from any artistic effort we
had ever seen. It attracted the atten-
ton Of great number of the newspa-
per critics Of the state, who were jeaI-
Gus Of the Beacon's possession of an
artist like Mr.. Wertz, and they began
to gibe him with lot of ribald tibes
and to make merry with his art. This
finally got in on Mr.. Wertz's nerves,
and from being a virgin artist I'M
spoiled by any of the conventions of
the art schools and free from trouble
OF every kind, he began to worry and
to fear that he was not as good an
artist as he ought to be- This worry so
preyed upon his artistic temperament
that his art became f1abby, lifeless and
more like the art of the period The
Beacon decided, therefore, to send Mr.
Wertz away for rest and a course OF
treatment in an art school. So Mr..

single Colon used for it's original and
breaks in, or the limp Comma makes dts
ipefectual protest against aimIess per-

Colon fleeing from the tunult of limo
type and multiple press. He must have

erstwl1ile associates in the printers
