Emperors and kings. princes and dukes have borne the names of Phil lips, or Philip, and the family has q rich heritage in its traditions. The name is nearly as old as the world itself Philippi was a city of ancient Macedonia. and the founder of Mace dona was Philip-a Phillip.
 The name is of Greek origin. from philos-hippos. lover of horses. This was in an age when the hero was a man of action. Phillips has been a surname in Great Britain for 800 years, and the family can be traced back in unbroken line to the year 1900. The homes have been in Devon. Suffolk. Warwick, Stafford and Let cester At Stratford -on-Avon the fam fly has been seated for centuries. The orthography of this branch is Phil. Hippo
 It is not an easy matter to keep track of the spelling of the name Tn Wales. where the family hourshed, PhillipSe is the usual form. and the oldest coat-armor of the family is that El ihAtb AO ttlt W tISn bldDNi. Ht coat is extremely simple. proving it's antiquity
 Among various orthographies. the following may be given as samples: Phylyppe-two "y's" certainly confer great distinction-but don't adopt them unless able to live mp to them, Then there are Pphillips, a form seen at the present day: Philopoe; Phillot, Philippe; Philcox is called diminu- tive. and Phelp, Phelphs. Philipson are derived from the same root The son of Philip is the same root The son of Philip Is the meaning of Phil ipson. The Philipsons of Thirlwell. Northumberland. trace back to Philip ThirlweH Phipp and Filkin are also derived from Philip.
 The Philips of Staffordshire de- scend from Francis Phylyppe of Ney- ther Teyne. He lived in the reign of Edward VI. Grace Dien Manor in Leicester was the home of the Phil lipps The kings sergeant, in the reign Of James IL, was Phillips.

Chicago. March 13-Students Of the Art
Institute OF Chicago. who represent
practically every State In the Union. are
the leaders in the revolt against the
domination Of European ideals. and have
begun the establishment Of a national
American art. The recent structures by
Alfred East. president of the Royal So
ciety of British Artists, when he spoke
at the 1910 opening reception of the Art
Institute, drew attention to the fact that
Western artists are breaking away from
the old traditions.
Mr.. East declared that the Americans
are towards in art. fearing to follow
their own aspirations and Inspirations,
lest they offend the traditions of the Old

Is best in the business and industrial
world said Mr.. East. without asking
what their grandfathers did; they do not
cling to an outgrown method of making
machinery, or eultivating their lands. or
conducting business because It was the
method Of their forefathers. But they

teTS OF art
The progress of Chicago and Western
artists in beginning the establishment
of a national school of art is shown by
two exhibitions at the Art Institute this
month One comprises about 525 paint
ings and pieces of sculpture by the art
lists Of Chicago and vicinity. and the
other is an exhibition of pictures painted
by artists resident in Chicago previous
to 1888
The completion of the fourth (the east)
side of the quadrangle OF the Art Insti-
tute building, adding eleven large gal
leries, furnished the space required TO
give this comprehensive and comparative
exhibition.
Among the artists exhibiting are sew
eral who for several years have been
living abroad, principally In Paris and
France but who have become convinced
that the European traditions are mar
rowing and prevent the development of
American art in its own proper channels.
