70 be the case, but for the most par
the pictures are greatly satisfying, the
work Of a man who has made hi"'seIl
master Of his medium.
The annual exhibition Of he works
of the members OF the SalmaSIhui
Club Is now on. There are more 'Aa's
two hundred pictures, and they are OF
great variety and interest. They are
70 he auctioned on the evenings OF
Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, req
ruary 16, II and IS.
Among the artists represented are
many of note. Z. X. Ryland sends an
effective arranging the still Lie,
broad in treatment and brilliant IN
color. THE Passing of Autumn by
Alfred Hutty, has beauty OF Color
charm Of composition and an appealing
softness. F. J. Waugh's Big Surf Is
an effective sunlit sea piece, bur me
color seems. perhaps. too strislng.
"February," By Leonard Ochtman' rs
a good clear winter landscape. Caaun-
cey +. Rvdcr's The Barrel Mill' ha.
an effective touch Of red in an other
wise grayish color scheme. \ .inely
painted picture is Gustave Wiegand's
"Silyer Brches at Blue Mountain
Lake" John +. Cerlson's winter
Light" is one of the most delightful
pictures by this artist that We nave
seen, snow scene with tree trunks.
"Ccrnered." by Charles s. Chapman, IS
one of his usual effective painting IN
strong white and blue. +. Luis Moras

Six small panels destined for the
grill room Of the National Arts Club
are being shown az the Lotos Club.
They are the work Of J. William Fos-
dick. and are done in his usual manner.
The pattern u first burned on the wood
in outline. IL is then raised. IN por
tions. with gesso and painted and
gilded. This produces an effect Of
richness. The present panels are more
or less conventional. The three
smaller ones are simply pretty heads
set in scroll borders. The larger ones
represent Painting, Architecture and
Sculpture. They each contain male
and a female figure facing each other,
on either side Of a central motif. That
of Sculpture has, as symbol, Daniel
Chester French's figure from the Spen-
Ger Trask fountain. They are pleas
ant little decorations. but not so fine as
the Joan OF Arc series. by the same
artist, shown last year al the Archi-
tectural League.
There Is a very pleasant exhibition
Of the works Of Dewing Woodward az
81 Madison Avenue. The color IN gen
eral Is pretty. and pale rather than
strong. and the drawing is usually
good. With three exceptions the pict-
ures all contain nudes. La Faran-
dole" is fantastic decoration, with
good rhythmic pattern, but the color
might be more happy. Morning Song
of the Pines" does not contain so much
poetry as IS intended. IL Is artificial
in conception and lacks spontsneity:
There is delightful golden-toned
painting called whispering Birches.
IL contains three charming elusive hg-
ures. Beautiful in color is "Azaleas,
which shows the back of the head and
neck OF dark haired girl against a
mass Of Towering bushes. Ihe several
pastel studies are OF great delicacy.
A. the little Thumb Box Eallery is a
show OF so-called paintings and draw
ings By Wood Gaylor. The title is mis-
leading, for they are not paintings in
