promptu cortege with his vision, was
brought up sharply by the glare Oh
a pair of eyes outside the nearest
window. The eyes were fixed on his
own. Their expression was distinctly
malevolent. Without looking around
Sedgwick said in low voice:
"Kent!" 2
No answer came.
"Kent!" said the artist a little
louder.
"Huh?' responded muffied and
distracted voice behind him.
"See here for a moment"
There was neither sound nor move
ment from the scientist.
IAN looking chap outside
the window is trying to hypnotic
me, or something of the sort"
This information. deemed by its
giver to be of no small interest,
elected not the faintest response.
Somewhat piqued, the artist turned,
to behold his friend stretched on
bench, with face to the ceiling, eyes
closed, and heels on the raised end.
His lips moved family. Alarmed lest
the heat had been too much for him
Sedgwick bent over the upturned
face. From the moving lips issued q
musical breath which began its career
softly as Rats "Cavatina," and came
to an inglorious end in the strains
of Honey Boy" Sedgwick shook
the whistler insistently.
"Eh? What?" cried Kent, wrench
ing his shoulder free. go away!
Can't you see I'm busy?'
"Ill give you something to think
about. Look at this face of cigar

"Gansett Jim. probably" ppined
Kent. Just where his interest in
this case comes in ! haven't yet
found out. He favored me with his
regard outside. And he had some
dealings with the sheriff on the
beach. But I don't want to talk about
him now. nor about anything else. :"
Acting on this hint Sedgwick let his
companion severely alone, until a
hustle from without warned him that
the crowd was returning. Being
aroused Kent accosted one of the
villagers who had just entered.
Body coming back?" he asked

Involuntarily Sedgwick looked al

from the crowd.

elbow. Mistakes like that are Judge

such as these was the popular taste
directed as being the best of their
kind.
When 26 years old Reynolds went
to Italy for three years of study. In
stinctively he seems to have turned
to the greater artists. Their influence
in his later work Is very plain. He
did not hesitate to show his appre-
citation of the Venetian school--at
that time in some disrepute because
their manner of painting was different
from the bad work of Guido and the
rest of his kind. But he seems to have
made no effort to correct the popular
idea; probably because he was nat
urally modest.
Perhaps Sir Joshua's greatest work
was putting new life into the tradi-
tons that existed. But he did not
hesitate to set aside tradition. when
occasion offered, although his mag
NATIVE pictures are his least success
full ones.
His pictures of children are his hap
piest efforts. In the picture before us
he has painted the face OF Frances
Gordon in five different positions,
going back to the Italian idea of a
cherub to cloak this fact. By doing
this he has made a picture of what
would in the hands of most painters
be but five different studies of one
head.
This picture rests today in the Ma
tional Gallery at London along with
1.-The Age of Innocence" and other
important pictures by Reynolds. This
group of pretty faces-all Of one child
has always been a popular and well
beloved picture.

The Crystal Falls High School com
menced last fall, and which is at pre-.
sent nearing completion will be similar
TO the local high school, which was
built four years ago. Their old high
school is in very good condition only
being erected five years ago but be-
cause OF the growth in population they
have been forced to build another
school. The old high school will be
occupied by the grades
In spite OF the two schools IL is also
similar to the school in this city. The
new school Is put up in the rear of the
former high school the same as the
Negaunee high school. The heating
plant is also similar, being built for
the two places. The connection Of the
schools is also similar to our high
school, having a brick tunnel.
Instead OF giving il the name Cry.
stall Falls high school it will be called
Forest Park high school. This name
is gwen to it because IL Is near the
Forest Park baseball grounds.
The school board intends to have il
opened TO It's pupils the first of mex
year.
Herman Gundlach, Of Houghton
has the contract.
The Cry stall Falls city hall is being
started. The old building has beer
removed from the site and the sand
has been taken away and all is in
readiness for the foundation.
On the lower floor of this structure
they will have their tire department.
This will consist OF one team Of horses
and a heavy hosecart. This will be
the first fire team that this. city has
ever had, their former department be
ing a hand drawn hosecart.
