TELLS ARTS EFFECT IN
FRENCH REVOLUTION
Montclair clubwomen Listen to
Interesting Discourse by
Edward Maryon.

The members of the Woman's Club
of Montclair will visit the Metropoli-
tan Art Museum, of New York, next
Monday, where they will inspect
works of art. The party will be un-
der the leadership of Mrs. w. Van
Antwert. The club members listened
yesterday to an interesting discourse
on art. The speaker was Edward
Maryon.
Mr.. Maryon pointed out that the
Italian art had a great influence on
the French Rennaisance. and that
Francis /. was another important fac
tor in this change The speaker
briefly traced the progress of French
art down to. the period of Vatican.
The extravaganza manifested IN
this trend of art aroused the peasants.
and common people to a resentment
which finally developed into the
French Revolution. The common
people, feeling the pinch of poverty,
and seeing these exquisite pictures
and costly vases that would keep a
village in food for year, realized
that they had been betrayed by their
own class.

notices were gen: The literary de-
partment of the club under the Lead

TO collect the rents from such pro-
perties which are rented and on
which the tax is due.
According to the members of the
Township Committee there are very
good paying properties in Union

taxes. 1t was said today by MEM
bers of the committee that every
chance in the world had been given
the owners to pay these taxes.

everyone chance before the rule is
put INTO effect, and if they will show
an inclination to pay their taxes
they will be given ample time. 1t
is not a case of lack of funds, ac-
cording to the committee, but just to
get what is due to the township.

able accommodation under certain
conditions. The smokers want the
right TO pun away on the three rear
seats OF the semi-convertible sur
face cars In New York city during
the season OF the year when the
windows can be opened. Such use
OF the three rear seats was an es.
tablished right in the days OF the
old open. summer cars, and gen
orally exists wherever these cars
are used at the present time. and
the plea In made that the substitu-
ton OF the convertible type. which
has been introduced to save a dup
licate investment IN rolling stock.
should not abrogate this right, az
the car, in favorable weather. has
become practically open and smok-
ing would create no greater nuts
ance than in the old type OF summer
cars.
The plea Of the smoker II made
on the ground Of reasonable accom-
mediation, and also is urged as good
business for the operating company
as an open car ride. plus a good
cigar, means pleasure for many a
man summer evenings or Sundays,
when the car ride, minus a cigar,
might not prove inviting. In Phila-
delphia the nearside convertibles
are all used on loop routes. the seats
are not reversed. and the dedica-
ton OF the three rear seats 10 the
use of the smokers would cause a
minimum Of offense to the rest of
the passengers. at least II the privi-
lege were TO be restricted only TO
such times az the windows OF the
car could be opened.-PhIladelp
