tancied, and carrying them home to
spend three hours in experiments at
cooking them. The results were as
indifferent as might have been ex-
pected, but Harry laughed cheerfuliy
over them. When the vegetables
burned, he Joked about it ana when
the meat was UNDERGONE he declared
he preferred it rare. When her at
tempts at baking turned out the fat

fully, then caught her to him and
kissed her until her woe-begone ex-
preston vanished and she laughed
with him over her mistakes.

ment it is subjected to critical in
quiry based on purely artistic grounds.
M1llet, Manet and the rest won
through because they knew how to
paint. Beardslcy conquered, as we
have said, because he knew how to
draw. There, in nutshell, is the
phlosophic point for the Bolsheviki to
ponder. They appear to think, poor
souls, that if the world won't accept
them at their own valuation it Is be-
cause the world doesn't understand
their high-erected programme. because
their esoteric theories are incompre-
hensble to the philistine intelligence.
Let them learn the rules of the game.
Let them take leaf from Beardsley's
book. He labored in a kind Of spir-
itual miasma. Beauty as he saw it
was largely sick, haggard. unllumined

typed motives. The collection is, on
the contrary, varied one, with the
air in it of man going from theme
to theme with delightful zest. Mr..
Ritschel likes big subjects, and he
tackles them in a big way. When he
paints the sea, as in the "Moon Path"
or the "The Golden PATH" he whelms
the waters in radiance. His numerous
studies of the Pacific Coast bring out
with special effectiveness the massy
character of great rocky formations
wrought and beautifully discolored by
the encroaching tides. He we'll in
terprets the power of the wind. You
tcel it in his turbulent waves and in
the eccentric lines of his live oaks on
the shore. In contrast to the luminous
and breezy traits of his sea pictures
he expresses in pictures like his "Walpi
Mesa, Arizona" the stiffness of the
desert and the gray mood which some
time overtakcs it. Then he comes
East and paints in his "Winter Morn

The March exhibition at the Lotos
Club will be given to paintings from
the collection of Mr.. Charles l.. Bald
win. To visitors presenting cards from
members it will be accessible on the
afternoons of the 23d, Oath and 25th.
There has been placed on view at the
knoedler gallery the picture entitled
"Dour" an Armenian word for "Givc").
which was painted for Mrs. Oliver Har-
riman by Mrs. Agnes E. Mayer. 1t will
be sold next Tuesday at musical and
tea at the Ritz Carlton, and the pro-
ceeds will be used for relief in the
Near East. The artist describes her
work as representing the great spirit
of Charity, overwhelming all space and
pleading for the womanhood of the
stricken regions, She has sought to
suffuse her scene with the spirit of
Hope. Mrs. Mayer produced a poster

mately interpreted by this young Eng
lish craftsman? Where are the SHOWS
of yesteryear? But merely to ask
these questions is to feel interest
sharply reviving in the answers that
may be made to them.
Mr.. Frederick II. Evans, the London
bookseller to whom these drawings be-
long-and for whom, by the way, they
will be sold next Thursday evening
was an early patron Of Beardsley, and
n lucky one. Beardsley came to him
a mere boy, just commencing artist"
and it was Evans who got him the
the "Morte d'Arthur." By the same
token Evans was in a position to buy
some of the first and most character
istic drawings, to form, in short, a
really representative collection This
exhibition embraces the "Hail Mary"

Beardsley's career, when the influence

Strictly speaking, there was nothing at

the pre- Raphaelte strain, in view of
the fact that his echoes Of the early
Italians are Anglicized through their
alliance with the Italianism of Burne-
Jones. When ne drew the "Hail

have seen reproductions, he appears

with ideas of beauty. But he mastered
an art, and mastered it with such dis
tlnction that not all the acrid fumes of
musk and patchouli can distract us from
the central fascination of his drawings.
1t is fair test with which to confront
the Bolsheviki. They tell us they
have something to say. Well, 1t Is
reasonable to ask them to prove that
they know how to say 1t, that they
have conquered at least the rudlments
OF form and color, that they can model
and draw with competence, that they
appreciate what we can only call the

the making of an artist.

1t is superior because it serves better
than either Of its predecessors to sug-
gest current conditions in the arts it
illustrates. The members are we'll rep
resented and there are numerous
guests who exhibit. Surveying the col
lection of over hundred prints in a
general view, one is most pleasantly
struck by the generous play of that
element which alone could Justify the
existence of such an organization-the
play of personality. There are prints
here which are not only we'll executed,
but which disclose the employment Of
an ldlom in an individual manner. We
may cite the delightfully."- original dry
points of Mr.. Allen Lewis, the clever
studies Of buildings by Mr.. Earl Hortcr,
the deity handled Venetian plate by
Mr.. Ernest D. Roth-who might be
styled an American Lalanne-and the
prints of Mr.. Ernest Haskell, Mr.. Sal
vator Guarino, Mr.. Eugene Higgins and
Mr.. Henry Raleigh. They have sub
more, they denote interesting points of
view. Lithography is much in evil

Its potentialtes are undeniable, and
in the right hands are very beguiling.

fs,uE exhibition Of forty~three draw
ings by Aubrey Beardslcy at tho
Anderson Galleries, allusion to which
already has been made in The
Tribune, has an altogether exccp-
tjonal significance. 1t rolls up the
years like scroll, takes us in a
trice back to what has been called the
renaissance of the nineties, and in the
urocess wakes reflections on matters
having to do not only with that period
but with the present time. Looking at
some of these drawings we realize
anew that Beardsley's work was one
Of those manifestations in art which
the world will not willingly let die.
Also there is a sense in which his
contribution is as dead as Julius
Cesar. Where Is "The Yellow Book"

Mr. Horatio Walker exposes guam
tity of new work at the Montross gal
lery. He evinces, as he has at rare
intervals evinced before, an interest
in things classical. His "Hippocrene,"
in which Pegasus takes flight above a
gushing fountain, in a cloudy landscape
spangled with unearthly light, dimly
justities his deviation into antiquity.
The picture has certain romantic
charm. But, at bottom, Mr.. Walker has
always been a cattle painter, and it is
as such that he once more asserts him
self with real authority. The only
other exception to his familiar mood,
the "Deo Gratias," in which peasants
pause with bowed heads before way
side crucfix, is no more admirable for
the imaginative note it strikes than
for the realism on which it is chiefly
founded. This is, like all Mr.. Walkers
work, an impression of simple rural
life. 1t is there that he exccls. Though
he delineatcs his animals and fowls
for their own sakcs and even on occa-
sion excludes all other matter, as in
the technically brilliant "Still Life
