JEWISH ART AND ARTISTS.
Continued from front page)

The present-day young Jewish artists
have created a new school of art. This
is at the same time a protest against
the art of 3. M. Lilien Lilien's illustra-
lions appeared for the first time when
the German Jews began to issue
translations from the Jewish writer's
After that number of Jewish publica-
lions carried reproductions of Lilien's
illustrations, which first appeared in
German editions-and then there appear
ed Kratka, who illustrated a number of
books, especially those of l. L. Perez
Kratka was the first Jewish artist who
understood clearly and who felt the beau
ty of the old Jewish and Hebrew relics
Perhaps it was the great Polish artist,
Vispianski, who led Kratka to realize
the artistic possibilities afforded by these
interesting relics. With his illustrations
and paintings of the old Jewish relics
Kratka led the way and was soon fol-
lowed by students at the art school,
"Bezalel," in Jerusalem. But the pupils
at "BeZaleP' went no further than to free
themselves of Liliens banal tradition.
For the most part these pupils displayed
an inclination for the Oriental in art, and
continued their work in the manner of
Persian tapestries and Arabian drawing,
which their director, Professor Schatz,
had brought out of the Damascus.
Through such art borrowings the develop
ment Of Jewish art is made impossible,
however,
The young Jewish artists in our own
day no longer work in the spirit Of the
1o1D
are divided into two groups: one hanks
back to the naive ancient Egyptian or
BaIbylon4Assyrian art, and the other is
grouped with the most modern European
artists.
Jews wander from place to place leav-
ing everywhere part of their energy, and
taking at the same time for themselves
certain cultures. This is best manifested
in the province of art.
The creator of Russian landscape
painting was the Jew, Isaac Levitan, who
for the first time reflected the beauties
of Russian landscapes and of the Russian
countryside in his paintings, which at
tracted the whole world as we'll as Rus
STA. Pissaro, also Jew, sought in France
the best that the art of France could
give him, and in his early and later
works he showed how deeply he could
assimilate and how we'll he could inter-
pref the beauty of Paris and it's sur
roundings.
Later, when the Jews emigrated to
America and created in this country a
new ghetto, there stepped forth from
among the immigrants a generation of
dreamers. In the artistic circles of Amer
lea there appeared Morris Stern, who,
following the French painter, Goghan,
showed America the beauties of the ex-
otto West Indies.
After him there appeared second art
list, also out of the ghetto, Paul Berlin,
the painter of Arizona and New Mexico,
and following him there came Gerome
Myers, Bernard Gussow and Abraham

AND NOW THEY ARE COOKING
TOBACCO TO MAKE 1T BETTER

For a good many years The American
Tobacco Company have been conducting a
series of experiments having as their
object the Improvement of smoking
tobaccos.
And it is interesting to know that one
of the greatest of their discoveries was one
of the simplest, and that was, that cooking
Or toasting tobacco improved it in every
way, just as cooking most foods improves
them.
They took a real Burley tobacco. grown
in this country; toasted it as you would
toast bread; moistened it to replace the
natural moisture driven off by toasting;
made it into cigarettes, called them
LUCKY STRIKE. the toasted cigarette"
and offered them to the public.
Theresult has been the greatestdemand
ever created for any tobacco product in a
similar length of time.
The change produced by toasting is not
only most wholesome, but the flavor is
greatly improved, just as cooking improves
meat, for example. ADV.
