An exhibition of paintings of wild
flowers has recently been held in Erie,
Pa, attracting mucn attention:
This collection consists of 1900
paintings of wild flowers of this
country, Canada, Great Britain,
France, Italy, Germany and Austria,
all by Mrs. Lucy Stratton. Many of
the flowers which were too fragile to
be gathered were painted by Mrs.
estimates that she has tramped at
least 5000 miles, in addition to her
travels, in pursuit of these flowers.
The work has extended over twenty
five years.
Mrs Stratton studied with well
known painters both in this country
and abroad, and it was her fondness
of art and love Of nature which led
her to specialize along this line. The
paintings are said to be both botan-
ically correct and artistically en-
gaging.
Each flower has been transcribed
on the tone of paper best shifted to
it's quality and color. The paintings
are uniform in size and each is mount
ed on a deep cream colored mat
There is but one flower for each paint
ing, but they are grouped according
ed flowers compare more than favor
ably with the famous glass flowers of
Harvard.
1t is of special interest to Washing
tonians to know that Mrs. Stratton
has. upon request, willed this collec-
ton to the Library of Congress.

notable, as is also the spirit of joy
BUSINESS which pervades the collection

After the death Of Augustus Saint
Gaudens his studios on his place at
cornsh nemora, h by x Mrs ssin. e Gaa
dens. No changes were made in
the studios, but examples of his work
were assembled and almost a com
plete collection in plastic casts or in
bronze is there to be seen: Under
certain restrictions the studios have
been open to the public each summer
and many art lovers have made pill
grimages to the place for the pur-
pose of viewing the great sculptors
work in the environment IN "hlch
much of 1T was created.
1t is interesting to know that the
studios and their collections nave
lately been incorporated under the
laws of the state of New Hampshire
and have. therefore, become per-
manent institution. The incorporat-
ors are Mrs. Saint Gaudens. the
scuptor's widow: Capt Homer Saint
Gaudens, his son: Herbert Adams.
president of the National Academy of
Design; Frederick Julian simpson,
Charles A. Plat, the architect: Philip
H Faulkner and Mrs. Upham.
Mrs Saint Gaudens hopes during
her lifetime to gradually put into
permanent material all the works in
the memorial collection, which are
now only represented by plaster
casts.
with the exception of the Adams
Memorial in Rock Creek cemetery
and one or two minor works in the
Corcoran Gallery of Art. there are
no examples of Saint Gaudens sculp-
ture in Washington. Undoubtedly
representative group of his work
should be made part of our national
gallery. Such a group is now obtain
able, but will not be some years hence
AS the National Gallery has no pur-
chase fund such collection would
have to be derived through private
munificence LEILA MECHLIN

assistant secretary to the State Dem
ocratic committee, and four years
later to the Democratic Congressional
committee. During this time he was
Il frequent speaker on the stump. In
the Presidential campaign for the
election of Woodrow Wilson in 1872
he was an active participant.
Mr.. Symc started the practice of
law in Washington twenty-one
years ago and in 1900 he, together
with Senator Faulkner. was en-
ployed in the contest over the will
of Baroness Amoss. his duties in
this connection requiring a trip to
Europe, where he visited Rome.
Lucern. Heidelberg. Berlin. London
and Paris. His success in law prac-
tice gained international promin-
Cnce.

1913 became corporation counsel of
the District of Columbia and gen.
eral counsel of the Public Utilities
Commission. positions he now holds.
This office corresponds to attorney
general in the States and carries
with it the responsibility for all
legal matters pertaining to the Cap

CITIZENS WILL PROBE
HIGH RENTS IN D. c.
Better Understanding Between
Landlord and Tenant Proposed.

The rent situation in Washington,
now becoming more desperate than
ever. will soon be probed by the
Federation of Citizens Association,
according to Mr.. Westlake. president
of the organization
1t is contemplated to appoint an
arbitration and advisory committee
which will seek to promote a better
understanding between the tenants
and their landlords. and this COM
mtttee will investigate particularly
with regard to instances of exces-
sive rents and similar profiteering.
1t is the intention to place the
blame on the responsible. party in
these cases. and in the eyent that
the landlords are gouging the pub
lie means will be devised to remedy
the evil.
The Board of Commissioners will
shortly call a meeting Of real estate
agents, landlords and tenants in an
effort to reach a conciliatory agree
ment between all parties Interested.
Another step along this line is the
appointment of an arbitration COM
mittee to investigate the rent prob
lem by the Real Estate Brokers, As
sociation.
