Baron Arpad Paszthory Is Com
pleting Study of Miss
Halle Davis.
DIAGNOSES AMERICAN GIRL
Artists Says They Have Free,
SportiVe, and Fun Low
ing Disposition.

Here is an up-to-date diagnosis OF
that international puzzle, the Amer
lean girl, as made by Baron Arpad
Paszthory, Hungarian painter:
She has a free, sportive and fun
loving disposition.
She likes fun, and is less senti
mental than most other national
types.
Her pose is free from Mental con,
straint.
She Is strong and athletic.
Above all things she is not the ball
room type, and she should not be
painted in evening gown. She is best
interpreted in street, sport, or almost
any other sort OF attire.
Painted Miss Davis.
These comments of this artist, now
in Washington, throw light on his de-
piction OF Miss Halle Davis, of 1924
Massachusetts, avenue, granddaughter
of the late Senator Henry Gassaway
Davis and niece of former Senator
Elkins.
The artist has just painted a pic
ture of Miss Davis portrayed in q
simple white costume.
She rests on q stone lawn seat In
this pose she might just have re-
turned from a game OF tennis. Though
she is in repose her polse suggests
that she has paused only a moment
from some vigorous activity.
Portrait Of King Edward.
On the wallis of the artists studio
hung a copy of his painting of the
late King Edward, painted just be-.
fore that monarch's death, in 1911.
Soldiers and wars are national af-
fairs" he said, in explanation; "art is
International"
The original of this picture, despite
the war, still hangs In the armory of
a regiment at Budapest.
Baron Arpad believes that what
ever the economic and political
aftermath of the war may be,
these animosities will not so much
effect art. He believes artists
should be the leaders in International
ism, and that their spirit some day
may be reflected in the mental atti-
tude OF other men and women.
Picture Being Completed.
The picture of Miss Davis, in
which Washington society folk are
greatly interested, is being completed.
It is interpretative, rather than photo
graphic, and the better to express this
characteristics of love of outdoors
which she has in common with other
American girls, a large part of the
canvas is taken up with a back
ground showing the lawn.

CENTRAL MAKING BREAD
High School Lunehroom Provides
Its Own Supply.

There is more bread being con-
sumed now at Central High School
than at any previous time. The lunch
room at the school has started to
make its own bread, and the domestic
science department will begin teach
ing bread making the next semester.
Previously all the bread eaten in
the lunch room was purchased from
local bakers. Sixty-five loaves day
are now made, and only the lack OF
help prevents a greater number. Tne
cost of making the bread is slightly
less than the cost from q baker.
Bread can be made at home at prac-
tically the same cost at which 1t may
be bought, the domestic science de-
partment says.

BEN C0EN SEEKS PARDON
MAN WHO CAUSED VIOLA BEVE-
RIDGES DEATH APPL1ES FOR
RELEASE FROM PRISON

Ben Coen of this city, who is now
serving an indeterminate term at the
Saltwater peniteatiary f.r man
slaughter in the second degree, hav-
ing caused the death of Viola Beve-
ridge, daughter Ct Mr. aad Mis-.
William Beverage of this city On
March 80, by running over her with
an automobile, has applied for par
don. His application was heard at a
meeting of the pardon board on Mon
day and was taken under considera-
ton. E. A. King of this city repre-
sented Coen. He states that 131
applications were taken up and that
it may be ten days before it is learned
what action is taken by the board.
Mr.. King believes Coen has a good
chance to be pardoned as the jury
men, in returning their verdict asked
the judge to exercise lenieney in SEN
fencing him, and because Coen has a
good record at the pepitentiary. The
judge, at the time he pronounced SEN
tence, stated that he could not COM
ply with the request of the jury as
the law prohibited him from fixing
the maximum sentence. Since that
time a law has been passed that
gives the judge this power.
