in the air? Speaking literally. II
II putting US up there now.
The same awakening which
spurred Europe to aerial prepare
ton two years ago has struck the
United States with the full force
OF realization and most terrible
example. and the latest and best
equipment is being sought by our
army and navy.
The Secretary of the Navy. Mr..
Daniels. has called the aerial ex-
perts OF tht country to his assist
ance. The National Aeroplane
Fund. organized by the Aero Club
OF America, already has over Sl2.-
600 IN subscriptions with several
large donations notably $4,000
from Mr.. Emerson Mcmillan. TO-
wards the half million that will bt
raised; and fourteen aeroplanes
have been placed at the disposal
OF the army and navy. Aviation
corps for the national guard and
naval militia are being formed
and organization is practically
completed in New York. Pennsyl-
vania, Illinois and Texas. Aero
plane stations are being establish
ed on the whole line OF the Allan
tic and Pacific coasts and along
the route Of the Lincoln Highway
through the central part OF the
United States.
Although Americans were first
to invent flying machines, Europe
was quick to discover and prove
their inestimable value and sur
prising possibilities. not only for
scouting. but for defense and Of
Tense also.
Enthusiasm spread like wild-ire
in Germany. Following the lead OF
their popular hero. Count Zeppe-
lin, the Aerial League was formed
and soon they had the magnificent
sum OF over seven million marks,
which was Immediately used 20
train pilots and encourage aviation
in all its branches.
In 1912 Germany had only go
pilots and less than twenty aero
plane builders: in one year the fig
ures were doubled and the Reich
stag passed a plan providing for
an expenditure OF thirty-five mil
lions for aeronautics. During the
first month OF 1914. the prizes and
inducements offered by the League
led TO the breaking OF all worlds
records by German aviators. and
by July the nonstop endurance
record was increased to "a hours.

years later and the mother and chill
dren returned to her former home at
Antwerp. From the start he showed
remarkable talent and when Arch
Duke Albert and the Infanta Isabelle
came to Antwerp. young Rubens was
charged with the arrangement and
decoration Of the triumphal arches.
He soon became a favorite with Eu-
ropean Royalty. and his life reads
more like fiction than fact. Before
he was thirty-five his fame had spread
over the Continent of Europe. His
death occurred in 1910.
Domenico GhirlandajO.
Christ Bearing the Cross by Domen-
leo Ghirlandajo Is remarkable for the
perfect drawing and coloring Of so
many faces, every one OF which stands
out like a single portrait. The face
Of Christ could hardly be called ideal
although it is one of the best con-
ceptions Of the suffering Christ. The
Virgin n the Magdalen and Veron-
lea with the napkin are perhaps the
best figures. h picture has all the
queer coloring of the fifteenth rem
fury. and there Is fascination in study
ing the various emotions on the faces
OF the different characters-anger,
hatred, pity and love are shown at
their best.
The artist Domenico Ghirlandajo
was the son of a silk weaver. and
was born in Florence in 1449. AS a
youth he was apprenticed to the trade
of his father but later took up art.
He was a friend Of the great Bot
ticelli and the influence Of the latter
is seen in the Ghirlandajo pictures.

pieces ofArt, and
a Description of
the Pictures.

JEW art galleries in the world
equal, n none excel. the mag
nificent picture gallery of the
Louvre in Paris. 1t has its be-
ginning in the works, chiefly Italian
and Flemish, gathered by Francis l.
at Fountainbleau.
Peter Paul Rubens.
There Peter Paul Rubens is seen at
his best, for an entire gallery is given
over to his largest paintings. In 1925
these pictures were brought to Paris,
where they received the final touches
from Rubens himself.
The C~ruci1xion. sometimes known
as Christ on the Cross, is one of the
greatest works of this prolific artist
whose pictures adorn SO many of the
noted galleries of Europe. The can
vas is a very large M and the figures
OF heroic size. The great genius of
Rubens in emotional expression Is
seen at it's best in the ideal face and
figure of Christ. Rubens portrays the
man Christ with the strained muscles
OF the arms which would be the nat
ural state as the weight of the body
10 thrown upon them; the torso, legs
and feet are all those OF a we'll formed
human being. The sweet, sad face Of
the dying Christ and the delicate halo
about the crown of thorns add to the
exquisite beauty of the picture. While
the face of the mother ppears a
tri1e too youthful, there is a certain
fascination about the tilt Of the head
turned toward the cross. The fair
haired weeping Magdaien at the foot
Of the cross Is considered by art con-
noisseurs as one OF the ideal figures
in art.
John, the Disciple whom Jesus
loved" stands gazing at the Man on
the Cross. his a beaming with love
for the Master and expressing a feel
ing Of sadness over HIS death-a per-
feet study of the human countenance
which breathes In it's lines both sor-
row and hope. The coloring is rich
with its earthquake" sky and dull
plains behind the cross. The rich blue
robe Of the Virgin and the black
worn by John form a beautiful con-
trast TO the gray n white in which
the Magdalen Is clothed. Altogether
the picture il one of the real treas
ures of the Louvre.

Titan. who was an Italian, was
born in 1477. The son of a distin-
guished soldier. the little boy led an
u%neventful life during his early years,
but before he was ten years OF age
his talent for art developed. for as a
child he painted a Madonna upon the
walls Of a house using flower juice
for coloring. While still very young
he was sent to Venice to study art,
Like Rubens his talent was so great
that he soon sprung into fame and
was called to Rome by tn" Pope.
While there he painted a lumber OF
pictures, excelling in religious subjects
his portrayal of Christ being second
to none. IL any of his pictures
painted in later life his favorite daugh-
ter Lavinia was his model in face and
figure. He died in 1576-a victim of
the plague which during that year
claimed fifty thousand human beings,
The real name Of the celebrated artist
was Tiziano Vecelli. His pictures are
found In almost every gallery Of note
in Europe.
Paolo Veronesc.
The Crucifxion by Veronese is
sometimes called by artists the profile
view of that event. Surely it Is one
of the oldest conceptions yer put
upon canvas, The picture shows
Christ between the two thieves, his
head surrounded by a curious halo.
The mother lies In a half fainting con-
dition at the foot OF the cross. while
the Magdalen ROBBED In white bends
over her. A Roman soldier with his
hand on the neck of a horse is an in
terested spectator. The picture tells
it's story of sadness by anxiety depicted
on the faces. The sky effect and the
vista Of Jarusalam In the distance add

Mar of Sorrows Is seen just before he
was nailed to the cross. The crown
Of thorns had beer placed upon his
head and pressed down until great
drops Of blood are seen on his neck.
The face itself tells the story of His
suffering for all mankind. In the
case OF the executioner Titan has
