The Twin Falls times. [volume] (Twin Falls, Idaho) 1905-1916, 1913-09-12

A young art student came to furn-
iture shop in London, and the talk was
of beauty of line, the dignity of pro-
portion, and the introduction of ma
hogany in the manufacture of furni-
ture. The art student afterward be-
came Sir Joshua Reynolds, the world
famed painter. The furniture maker
was Thomas Chippendale, known as
king of the Eighteenth Century Fur
niture Designers" And to these ear
ly friendly talks and arguments Chip
pendale attributes his reputation as q
master Of line and a genius of proper
ton.
Before the time OF Chippendale most
of the furniture was made of the heav-
Ter native woods, such as walnut or
oak. Mahogany made a powerful ap-
peal to him, because of its highly pol
ished surface and the exquisite beauty
of the wood itself; for the young cab
met maker who came up to London
from Worcestershire had a passionate
love of beauty and he was master
workman. From his father, who had
achieved considerable local fame, he
inherited this love, and he had learn
ed how to make the wood carvings
that are characteristic Of his designs.
After fire he converted four ada
cent dwelling houses into a shop,
which was situated on St. Martins
Lane, the fashionable section of Lon
don; and because he protested against

wrote about it, varying it occasionally
by writing sermons or tracts. He made
little money, but many enemies, for
he had bitter tongue.
Adam Black, afterward the famous
publisher, was then printers APP
prentice, and lived for a time in
Sheraton's humble home. "The night
l arrived" Black wrote, ''there were
but two cups and saucers, one OF
which l used, Sheraton's wife sharing
her young daughters porridge bowl"
Black published Sheraton's encyclo-
pedia of furniture. This brought
Sheraton some fame, but little food.
The big work showed the great range
and variety of Sheratons art.
We love his furniture for its finely
curved surfaces, graceful sweeps of
sideboard and cabinets reflecting the
light Aside from it's beauty, Siberia
tons furniture was essentially prac-
tical-sometimes in most original

the amount of his taxes 1t seems prob
able he was prosperous, Moreover,
he belonged to the Society OF Arts,
with Gibbon the historian, Richardson
the novelist, DR.. johnson the lexico-
grapher, and Horace Walpole the poll
tician. II you add to this that he mar
ried in 174S and died in 1873, there is
summed up practically all there is
known of Thomas Chippendale him
self.
Chippendale not only made beautiful
furniture, but he made 1t the fashion.
He was recognized by both the nobil-
ity and gentry not only as an author
ity on the subject, but as an artist. He
was probably better known as de-
signer of chairs than of any other
form of furniture. Chippendale was
familiar with artistic designs in Japan,
Italy, and Spain, and was ready al
ways to take ideas from the humble
as well as the great. as Is shown from
the fact that subscribers to his book,

Northumberland to local bricklayer.
A large part of his reputation is attri-
buted to this book, which was not SO
much a guide to his finished produce

would like to make. And these de-
signs have served as a guide to furn-
iture makers ever since.

SPECIAL news LETTER

During the last few years the de-
partment of horticulture has made a
great many permanent improvements
Its usefulness has been extended by
increased equipment in new labora-
tories, greenhouses, grounds, various
kinds of horticultural implements and
large technical library.
The work done in the college Is best
exemplified by the record of the stu
dents which it has been graduating
for the past three years. While the
department does not guarantee posi-
ton to any student, yet experience has
shown that the demand for we'll train

supply. The following graduates in
horticulture are all making good. Mr..

real merit.
In the experiment station the lead

Prof. W. H. Wicks, head of this de-

the horticultural problems of the
state. This work, coupled with the
various business trips throughout the
state on institute work and judging
horticultural products at agricultural
fairs enables the most approved and
business-like methods to be demon
strated to students in the class room.

and here we will not only hold our
classes but the Home Economics club
will hold its sessions.

as to give greater circulation OF
air. There was likewise hollow
front sideboard that became popular
for the ease with which butler could
reach across for stray glass or piece
OF china ware. Possibly his CONVEX
sation chair" was the most original
of all, designed as 1t was for the beaux
of Georgian times whose coattails
were too costly to be sat upon. The
proper position in this chair was fol
the sitter to face the back of the chair,
with his arm resting on the top rail,
so that his coattails could hang. The
so-called Pouch Table," much be-
loved today by neat housewives, was
Sheraton's invention. 1t was work
table with pouch of silk on each
side.
Besides his great book, Sheraton got
up handbook for the benefit of his
brother craftsmen, in which he gave
in helpful manner minute descrip-
lions OF his various pieces. The spir-
it that prompted him to do this was
the finest thing in Sheratons nature
He had his faults. He was narrow
self-centered, and bitterly resentful
of the success of others; but he be-
lieved 1t to be a mans duty to gice to
the world the benefit of his full know
ledge, and he sacrificed himself
through life to do this.

JEWISH PEOPLE
OBSERVE PASSOVER

New York, April 22.-The celebra-
ton of the Hebrew Feast of Pesach,
or the Passover, was begun at sunset
last evening by the Jewinsh people
throughout the world. The celebra-
ton continues for eight days, though
only the first two days and the last
two are of specific import to the Ortho-
dox Jews, while with those who have
accepted the modern, or reform dis
pensation, the first and the last day
are the only ones observed.
The Passover, which is also known
as the Feast of the Unleavened Bread
was instituted to commemorate the de-
parture of the Children of Israel from
Egypt, under the leadership of Moses
where they had been held in bondage
for upward of 400 years. There are
many ancient customs observed by the
Jewish people in connection with the
Passover. The chief feature of the
celebration, however, is the substitu
ton of matzos, or unleavened cakes
prepared for the purpose, for breat
in the household of the Orthodox
Jews.

the World, was laid at the end of the
third year of the sixth Olympiad, in
other words, $50 years before the birth
of Christ. Ancient Romans used to
fetes in honor of the Goodies Pale, pro
tectress of shepherds. These observ.
ances were supposed to have been
originated by Romulus himself. Then
later came the "Ludi Seculares," or
Feast of the Century, held at the be-
ginning of each new century. In 1900
King Humbert and Queen Margherita
| took part in these observances.
1t is an interesting fact that while
Rome has been a city for all these
1868 years, on one occasion she was
utterly bereft of inhabitants. This was
early in the Middle Ages. The barba-
rians were expected. Word was sent
out that, insomuch as no defense could
be made, everybody, men women and
children, should move up the river.
Not a soul was left within the city
limits for more than twenty-four hours.
Under Augustus the population of
Rome numbered nearly six millions.
Then it went down to the minimum
limit of 10000, in the Middle Ages, to
rise slowly again until it is now $4,000.
/ This is an increase of about $4,000
yearly for the last ten years.
The supposition of most people that
the word Roman comes from Romulus
lis erroneuos. Romulus comes from
Roma. The original colony was called
Roma, from Rumon, river, meaning
1.-THE town of the river" and its head
or leader, was Romulus "The man Of
the town of the river" So that after
all Romulus did exist, though Remus
is still to be accounted for.

SEARCHLIGHTS ON
GERMAN AIRSHIPS

Berlin, Germany, April 21.-Search-
lights are being fitted on all the Yep
pelin ariships which have already been
taken over by the government, as well
as on those which are under construc-
ton. In the latter case the airships
will be especially constructed to carry
the new searchlights but in the former
case the provision of the lights will
necessitate the carrying of smaller
crews. The searchlights, which are
fitted to strong supports in front o.
the drivers car, are provided Will
shutters for signaling and other pur
poses.
