reasonable TO assume that with a heavier

MIR. wCOUcH ExHIBITs ART.

Gordon Mallet McCouch, student
of the late Howard Pyle, is exhibiting
a collection of his pictures at the
Philadelphia Sketch Club, Philadel-
phia, this week.
Mr.. McCouch was one Of the char
ter members of the old Howard
Pyle School of Art as it was called
in those days, and came to study
under Mr. Pyle some ten or eleven
years ago. He remained under the
Wilmington regime for three years
then returned TO Philadelphia to
study under Frederick Bridgeman al
the Art League. Later he went
abroad and for the past five years has
travelled practically all over Europe
in leisurely fashion Russia and
Scandinavia being the only two coun-
tries which he did not visit.
Mr. McCouch intends for the pres
ent to remain in Philadelphia, and
possibly. with some reluctance. as he
considers landscapes his meter, to
turn his attention TO portrait painting
He believes that the chief benefit he
received from Howard Pyle was in the
line of composition and indeed his
work bears but imperceDtibly little Of
the indelible stamp set by Howard
Pyle on the work Of the majority Of
his pupils.
