lures dncluding much of his best work.) It would be a life work to raany painter, while to Brangwyn il troubled from time to time-but in- frequently-by fatigue"
 Undoubtedly Brangwyn owes a large rart of his virility to his early life at sea. The story of how this painter. as boy. sailed half around the world made frequent trips to the mysterious far east, slowed away in his brain the romance and the picturesqueness the color and the charm of that glorious land of sunshine, the land indelibly im- pressed upon the minds of all lovers of the work of Frank Conrad by that unriv alled tale. Youth" is an engag- ing one Born in 1867 of an English Father and Welsh mother. in the Bel gian town of Bruges, he was brought to London to live eight yeaN later. His father was an architect but made ~hat money he earned by reproducing old embroideries for altar cloths and vestments.
 As boy of 13, Frank Brangwyn be- gan copying at South Kensington mu- scum. Advised by several men who watched him work. his schooling was good and had considerable Influence upon his subsequent work. One day William Morris passed the young stu dent, and. struck by the facility with which he drew the most intricate de- signs, asked the young artist if he would like to do some work for him. At that time Morris was a considerable force in English art and Brangwyn went to work at his Oxford street rooms enlar- ing the masters drawings. It is to this early schooling that manysascribe Brara . wyn's remarkable sense of design. so noticeable feature of all his work.
 When the young painter had saved 4o shillings-the equivalent of $10-he de- cided to take his first sketching trip. He selected picturesque Sandwich. then the most charming of unspoilt fishing vil- lages. and even today favorite sketch ing ground for English painters. Brang- wyn's 40 shillings did not last long and, overstaying his time, he soon found him. self in debt to his host, the captain of a sailing vessel. The salt, however. was a sincere. if limited, lover of art and Brangwyn found 1t easy to make . deal

fore enjoyed by the work of another etcher. Although he has turned out scores of plates and continues to add to them every year. the public never seems to tire. Almost before they are out of the press, the impressions are at a premium and many men mako comfortable sums buying them for a rise. Although Brangwyn is still alive and evidently has many years of his Lest period still ahead of him. holders have refused as high as $S15 for single prints of one of his etchings which was published at $50. Others are held at almost equal prices and it is not unusual for prints to jump 100 per cent in value within few months of pub . lication.
 end with his work with oil, watercolor and the etching tools. He has inter- ested himself as we'll in the designing of house furnishings, rugs, furniture and draperies. In color he has done work so varied as posters, pictures, mural decorations and book illustra- tons. Many of his admirers in the past, while recognizing this amazing versatility as the necessary demonstra- tion of his genius, have worried lest Brangwyn burn up his vital forces and crack in his prime There is happily no sign of this up to the present and 1t Is all to the good that of late the painter apparently has decided that mural work Is to be his forte and has concentrated upon that phrase of his work.
 I want to quote just line or two of what was written some years ago by a sympathetic critic of Brangwyn's work. It will give, better than could in any other way, an, idea of the strik. ing industry and power of the man. After speaking of the few periods of exhaustion noticeable in the collected works of Brangwyn. the critic says:
 "Consider his work during the past eight years Q902-1910). It includ ssa nearly 200 etcings, most of them large end scarcely one that is not good; the Il panels at the Skinners Hall; dec- crative work for two exhibitions ir: Venice; holiday sketches in various places from Winchelsea to Montreuil. sur-Mer, and from Messina to Cahors: and more than half a dozen fine pic.

IT. LONDON, April 5-(Special Core IA spondence.) )-Probably for many Ei@s1,,3 months to come no other artist lSessssJ in the whole world will be of
 such interest to the American public as will Frank Brangwyn. The hundreds of thousands of visitors who pass through the court of honor at tho great Panama fair will gaze with mixed emotions at his eight enormous panels swimming in the marvellous sunshine of California, depicting in inimitable man. her and in gorgeous colors only possible to Brangwyn the amazing fertility of the west. Art critics will discuss the merits of the panels, pro and con. The writer cannot claim to be an art critic and will not trust his judgment in the matter, but he can and will tell you something interesting of the personality and romantic career of the artist-the only one of foreign birth, he believes, invited to contribute to the decoration of the fair buildings.
 Although the writer is not a critic, he can tell you something of the general opinion among painters and others of the work of Frank Brangwyn. England is not so crowded with great painters that 1t is impossible to say that this half Welshman half Englshman is a man apart. In fact, he is one of the very few men here whose work, it is pretty generally agreed. will live. Another of this group in England, of course. is our own John s. Sargent, one of the great est of living portrait painters, believed by many of his admirers to be the great est of all times.
 Brangwyn does not find his chief ap- rreciation at home. It is abroad in France and Italy Cat the recent Venice exhibition they accorded him a room all to himselD and in the United States that his work is most highly rated Eng land still likes the sweetly pretty efforts that crowd the walls of the Royal acad- enny and finds some offense to its art notions in the strong masculinity o1 Brangwyn's paintings.
 In telling you what l know of Brang- vyn I had better tell you what manner of man he is and then tell you of his career-his struggles as a boy with his art his romantic rovings that toclz him about the world in sailing vessels, his difficulties as an artist and finally his great triumph and versatility.
 Success. which warps so many charac- ters, has left Brangwyn absolutely un- spoiled. Although acclaimed the whole world over. pressed with more commis.

 BAHIA BLANCA

 @AHIA BLANCA is the New Or
 leans of the Argentine Repub- ES lio. It is the metropolis of the Eaki$4M south. and all of the country from here to Cape Horn is tributary to it It is a great railroad center, with iron tracks going out from it like the veins of leaf, and with surveys that include half dozen new routes across the An des to Chile. Thirty years ago the town was village. It had a population of less than 20o0. Now 1t has more than 100 GOO, and 1t promises to be one Of the greatest of the South American ports. 1t is some times called the Liverpool of the Ar genuine, and it might be called the Min neapolis as well. It has imports and ex- ports amounting to tens of millions of dollars year, and its flouring mills and great elevators ar among the wonders of the South American continent
 Bahia Blanca is a live. modern citly. 1t has eight newspapers. 10 banks. 20 ho- tels and an electric lighting system that covers not only the buildings but also the ships in the dry docks and in the harbor.l The elevators have electric belts by which the grain can be carried into a large num- Der of steamers at one time, and on the docks are electric cranes and other facil- ties for the handling of cargo. The town has one of the largest wool warehouses of
 
 and has a storage capacity of over 10- e0,o00 pounds. There are also hotels and employment bureaus for immigrants, and other facilities for developing the enor- nous area which is tributary to the port. Southern Argentina Is an empire in it. self It contains the frontier lands at the lower end of the continent. It is to large extent unexplored, and 1t forms an important part of the backwoods of the Argentine. This great republic is so little known to the man on the streets of our American cities that I almost despair of making you realize it's extent. From north to south it is almost twice as long as the United States, and if you could lift it up by the corners and twist it around spreading it over our country from east to west, with Tierra del Fuego at New York. the borders of Brazil and Bolivia would be somewhere near Salt Lake City. The country is as long as a straight line drawn from New York to III Paso or from London to Constantino- pie, and at it's widest part it reaches about as far as from New York to Chicago. It has more than one-third as much land as the United States proper. and It's allu- vial lands, built up by the Parana and Paraguay systems. are larger than those created by the Mississippi Missouri.
