been lately organized travelling exhibit
ton composed of works by painters OF the

dearth OF either production or interest.
1t is interesting to know, further
more. that the exhibition area Is by no
means limited. Last winter the Amer
lean Federation Of Arts received up
ward of fifteen requests for exhibitions
from North and South Dakota and Mon
tana alone. and it is now sending an ex-
hibition to Prescott, Ariz.. where it is to
be shown at a great state fair. At
Sante Fe in August quite notable ex-
hibition was held in the Palace of the
Governors. composed of works by some
of the foremost American artists. There
later. will be shown the summer works
of the Taos group of painters, all of
which will in time find their way into
eastern exhibitions. The movement is
very widespread.
Lucien Powell one of the Washington
artists, spent the summer in the Can
adian Rockies. He began painting at
Banff, then proceeded to Lake Louise,
and from there on to Vancouver. Lake
Louise. he declared, was more beautiful
than any place he had ever visited, and
of the glacier mountains lying between
it and the coast he wrote with the ut
most enthusiasm. 1t was a wonderful
trip, including Seattle, Portland and
Glacier Park. as we'll as lower Califor-
mia. Since his return Mr.. Powell has
been at his summer home in Virginia.
but he expects to reopen his studio in
the Corcoran building the latter part of

The blind can, of course, hear and they

Observation-Disclosures


WASHINGTON, Aug. 90 1t ap-
pears a showdown in the railroad
negotiations will occur at the close
of the afternoon. For hours the rail
road heads argued over the language
wherein they should declare their
final stand. They worked over a pro-
rosal for settlement which they would
like reason to believe the Brother-
hoods would accept, but which they
desired to be unanswerably brief on
their side.
President Wilson deferred con-
ference with the members of the
brotherhood until the results of the
executives meeting reached him. 1t
is believed the executives substitu-
ton will provide that the eight hour
day must not be tried until after ar
bitration. An impartial board must
be designated to pass on the question
of wages, over time and other details.
The railway managers have work
ed out comprehensive plan for train
operation in the event of a strike.
Many of the members of the Brother
hoods have paid their bills and are
expecting to depart tonight. Both
sides have declared themselves ready
for a strike.

BLAMES WAR FOR HIGH PRICES
RELIEF is PROMISED

BUENOS AIRES. Aug. 26. - DR..
Jose Marcos Pagliere today denied the
renort that the Radical party soon to
put its hand to the administrative
machinery in Argentina has no pro-
gram. The statement has been made
by a number of their political oppon-
ents and by many radicals them
selves.
DIR. Pagilere, prominent Radical
who probably will have a place in
President-Elect Irigoyen's cabinet,
says they are mistaken.

"are men of action, with deeds, not
words, for our daily motto. Person.
ally look forward to a new con-
stitutional life in Argentina which
VIII make our nationality as immov-
able as the rock.
There will be more security for
the people and for the stranger"
Dr.. Pagliere said the Radicals will
reduce food prices.
"The European war" he said today,
has unnecessarily increased the cost
Of bread in Argentina to ID l-2 cents
for two pounds and two ounces. We
have studied this matter and at the
end of three months Of experiment
have disposed of much bread at eight
cents and eight mills for two pounds
and two ounces. This was done with
out the loss of a single cent We will
do the same thing with meat and milk
very soon"

fracture of limbs.
Mrs. Hattie E. Reynolds, who

twisted it so as to cause the fracture
was mystery. She was taken to the

The other accident was to Henry

unbalanced himself in some way
while standing, causing one of the
bones in his leg to snap. His injury
was promptly attended and he is do

Aubrey Tuggle used to tell a fable OF
a mother hen that had IL chickens,
pullets and 6 ROSTERS. The flock
was owned by a Methodist sister who
proudly showed them to her friends
when they were following the mother
hen. Late in the fall Methodist
conference came that way. The fol-
lowing spring, when the flock was
rounded up, only the pullets remain
ed. When the mother hen was asked
to explain why some of them were
missing, she said; "Thosa little roost-
ers of mine after they got from under
my wing were not fit for laymen and
so they all WENT INTO THE MIN
ISTRY."
