NUDITY IN ART
New York Press.)

The slashing into ribbons of Ken
yon Cox's painting called THE Girl
With the Red HAIR" study of the
nude owned by the Art Students
either Of merely mischievous rogue or
of prude in art.
In sculpture it is certainly true that
the most beautiful and the most dig
nified work has always been in the
| nude. No combination of garments
has ever been invented which could
give the opportunity for beautiful
modelling presented by the bare hui
man body. Subtle differences of sur
face and line by which the sculptor
gets his color can not be obtained
from any other model SO completely
as from the nude human model. OF
painting this is not true, but it is true
| that even in painting the nude is ca
pable of great beauty and of disnity
which is much less easily attained in
| clothes. for the reason that then the
lines are not SO pure, the effect of
form is not so essential, the general
result is more decorative, and conse-
quently less fundamental.
The prudish, puritanical dislike Of
the nude fortunately is on the de-
| crease. not only as regards plastic art,
but also in other ways. The new
style of dancing is showing people not
only that nudity may be beautiful, but
that it may be treated in a much more
dignified and less suggestive way than
many methods of wearing clothes. The
dancing of Isadora Duncan and her
school is not only beautiful, but it is
far more dignified and chaste than
much of the dancing which preceded
it and which was fully clothed" 1t
is as lacking in immortality as a Greek
frieze
In fact, it is beginning to be seen
that the nude, instead Of leading to
immoral suggestion, has the opposite
effect when treated with simplicity and
dignity. In this respect our society
is much more civilized that it was a
few years ago. Our increased inter-
est in art, increased knowledge Of
beautiful art objects abroad. and our
developing taste in general have tend
ed to take away that prudishness in
regard to the nude which has no more
relation to morality than light has to
| darkness.

paper men a report Of the visit, wEich
had been prepared at the conclusion
of the conference and which presuma-
bly, had received the colonels OK.
"All three of us," he said, were
anxious to see Roosevelt because we
do not believe that he had three
stauncher supporters of his policies
throughout his term.
We were very much pleased to ind
him absolutely unchanged in his atti-

find how closely he is in touch with
what has happened in the last year
among his staunchest supporters, and
that he was under deep obligation to
them. He referred especially to their

tof the activities of the secret service
and incidentally he took rap at Rep
iresentative Tawney, who fathered the
limitation proposition.
