Color Aim
This Season Far the Most Pro-
ductive in the At tic
Sense.

1t is the growing recognition of the
fact that the true function of art is
the creation of beauty which has
turned the attention OF so many Of
our first landscape painters to winter
subjects, for there can be no question
that the Indictment season of the year,
which is least productive in the ma
terial sense, Is by far the most pro-
ductiVe in the artistic sense.
Considered in terms of color and of
decorative line, winter Is far more
beautiful than summer. 1t would al
most seem as If kindly mother nature,
desiring to compensate her children
for the loss of the peas and the
peaches, had provided them with q
special feast for the eyes and the
spirit.
But why" asks Helen. should
plain white snow be considered more
beautiful than the lovely green of
summer leaves? \ sheet OF paper is
clean and fresh and pleasant to look
upon, but after all 1t Is just white pa
per-"
All! There you are! Snow is never
white! 1t will take on Thousand
exquisite and varied tints-you can
exhaust the vocabulary Of Jewels and
of flowers In attempting to describe
them and still leave more than half
unmcntioned-but 1t Is never white!
1t is an instrument upon which ma
ture plays wonderful color sym
phonies, with never harsh or dis
cordant note. 1t changes color hun
dred times q day in response to
changes in the color of the sky-for
the sky color is always the keynote
of snow scene.
And its response to this color call
will invariably be the Complementary
color; so subtly stated, however, that
TO the professional eye the snow
will appear to remain a pure and
| virgin white.
Ii the sky is yellow, as at sunset,
| the snow will reply with note of
exquisite lavender blue; If the sky is
| blue, the snow wall be delicately yell
low; If the sky is greenish, the snow
will be roseate in hue. 1 have even
seen it assume an unbelievable tone
of crimson pink in reply to the call
OF a violently emerald sunset sky.
| But snow has still another attribute
which occasionally interrupts and
varies the action of this general law
| of complementarics. In q shy and
gentle way it reflects adjacent color
masses much in the came way as
water reflects nearby Objects From
The Field of Art" in the March

Clement, Who Pleased Beet.
hoven and the Author
OF "Vathek."

IN the cioisters of Westminster ABB
hey lie the ashes-ef Mu2io Clement,
the father of The pianoforte school,
and the musician who dared, IN Ni-l
emma. when he was fourteen years OF
age, 10 enter into q piano playing
contest with Mozart, the judges be-
ing unable to say who was the bet
ter player.
DR.. Won Max Unger, German, has
just written q biography of Clen1enti
which has just fallen into my hands.
The remarkable facts about the life
OF Clement are so many that a biog-
raphy Of him is highly interesting
reading. He was born in Rome, and
as child studied under the. renowned.
Cordicelli. His progress was so re-
marlzable that at the age OF nine he
was appointed TO q post as orgaIijst
in one of the innumeraole churchEN-
in the Eternal City. When he was
fourteen he was tie composer Of
some remarkable contrapuntol works,
and had already composed some OF
the hundred or more sonatas, which
he left at his death.
But the chief points of interest
about Clement today are his reia-
tons with Beethoven and his inti-
macy With Becl<ford, the author or
"Vothek," who brought the young
musician to England. Clement lived
for some time at Fonthill Abbey
Beckford's far-famed residence. and
he was received with enthusiasm in
London. Finally he was appointed
conductor of the italian opera.
Little has been written about
Clement, strange to say, and the new
work of De Won Marx Unger will be
welcomed by musicians everywhere.
Beethoven's Acquaintance.
Beethovn, like most other musicians
became acquainted with Clement
through his "Ciradus ad Parnassum."
1t was known that a romantic episode
in Clements life greatly influenced
him. but little of this episode was
known until DR.. Won Max fingers ad-
count of it.
Even in his early life Clement ~as
q greet traveller. In the course OF
journey through France tie
musician, while at Lyons, met q
notable musician in that city, one
Imbert Colonies. The daughter OF
this musician was the enamorata OF
Clement, and he desired TO marry
her. bat his romance was not
crCWaad VI tn success.
Contract with the Master.
But 1-CAlSl Il y QSdilnSS Win bC6f'
thoven are the most Important
features OF his lie When he was in
Vienna IN 1907 ho met the great mag
ter, and q contract was signed VI
Beethoven whereby it was az u
that the former, on handing p
certain manuscripts, should recsive
eco. The correspondence with r. NJ.
Collard, the business partner OK
Clement, which DR.. Won Max Upger
quotes, reveals the fact that a delay
of three years occurred before The
money was paid.
In 1868 Clement wrote to his parts
ner: But why have you not yet ful-
filled our engagement with Bee-
thoven?"
The delay was, as matter of factg,
duo to the postal difficulties on the
continent during the war with Ma
poleon. In consequence of this ais
covery it is made clear that some or
Beethoven's undated letters to his
friend Gleichensteln, hitherto as"
signed to 1907, belong to q much later
period.
Some Of tde most Interesting letters
of Clement relate to his experiences
in St. Petersburg.

The Germans have succeeded in check
ing the Allies in France, the war Of
fee announced. In many places, ii
states, the French have been repulsed.
That the Allies have had sweepingly
victorious battle near the river Marine
has been denied. 1t is explained that
the Germans withdrew to the strong
positions which they had already de-
cided to occupy in the event that they
discovered that the allied forces ahead
