Not only as most truly expressing
the spirit of the service which it
represents, but as a work of art,
judged solely upon its artistic
merits, the painting by Denman
Fink illustrating the Library War
service of the American Library as
ISOLATION is quite unanimously re-
garded as by far the best of the
seven well-known artists at the out
door studio in front of the New
York Public library during the re-
cent United War Work campaign.
Mr.. Fink developed his theme en-
tirely without personal hospital con-
facts. In a letter written in re-
Spouse to request for an explana
ton of the genesis of hisidea for
this painting, Mr.. Fink says:
The request for me to paint this
picture came so much at the eleventh

cause they did not know how to find
the kind of medical college which
they had come to the United States

Miss Katy Boyd George, Y. w. C.

in the United States, called upon
them, introduced friends and they in
turn put the girls in touch with other
Porto Rican students. From It's
time, the girls were no longer alone
in a strange country.
This is Miss Georges work. Gi $

France, Bohemia, South America,
Porto Rico and the Philippines are

for study as formerly. Miss George
visits the various institutions, makes

These sheer blouses are surprisingly
