If mere bulk had any authority in
artistic matters the third annual ex-
hibition of the Society of Indcpendent
Artists, which fills the roof garden Of
the Waldorf f-Astoria, would command
serious attention. There are more
than six hundred items in the cata-
loeue. But they turn out to express
nothing more than the zeal with which
quantities Of unimportant artists are
bound to support d show in which no
jury offends by it's discriminating in
reference. The exhibition presents
mass Of amateurish work which is
sometimes distressingly crude. but
which more often is merely dull and
wearisomc. il is often said in com
mendation of enterprises like this one
that they give chance to the younger
set. as though that were circum-
stance in itself we'll calculated to e~-
tort approval. But a public exhibition
ought to make some allowance for the
public; it ought at least to be amusing.
The trouble with this one is that it is

work is "Snow Crowned Hills" which

beauty of an icebound winter. In con-

The fortnightly exhibition at the

an interesting show Of paintings and
sculpture by group of we'll known
artists. Jane Peterson exhibits SIX can

light-and achieved a striking effect in
green and rose. "House by the

An exhibition which is attracting
lection of original drawings by old
and modern masters now shown at the
Anderson Galleries. One wall in the
main room of the galleries is devoted
to the primitive Germans, another TO
early Italian and French masters. an
other to the Flemish and Dutch school
and so on through the English and
Spanish masters of later periods. Mr.
Ederheimer, who is disposing of the
greater part of his stock in order to
devote more of his time to painting,
considers series of eight pen and ink
sepia sketches by francesca Guardi as
the gem of the collection. These draw
ings are wonderfully vital in their SIM
pie handling, and suggest the modern
spirit, though made about the year
1920. The Flemish and Dutch group
shows many interesting drawings;
Christ With Disciples at Emaus,' a
mastery color sketch by Jacob Jor-
daens, and peasant Pushing Loaded
Sleigh by Adrian Van Ostade, which,
though small, ought to bring keen bid
ding. Other masters represented of
this school are Jacob Van Ruysdael,
Jan Van Goyen and Cornelius Visscher.

tion an interesting one.

The Brooklyn Institute announces
an interesting exhibition, one of about
seventy drawings by Mr.. Frank Mura
He has lived abroad for many years
and his work has not been made very

Two important sales are reported by
the Knoedler gallery. Mr. Charles L.

At the Knoedler gallery Mr. George
Bellows puts forth collection of
eighteen OF his paintings, including
the "Polo Crowd" which he exhibited
some years ago; the pictures of Ger
man atrocities in Belgium, which we
remember from the Allied War Salon,
and number of new things. The
room as whole vibrates with an
energy that by itself wins sympathy.
1t is inspiring to come in contact with
a type so saturated in the life of to-
day. Occasionally, too. the realism of
this artist is endued with beauty The
Murder Of Edith Cavell' makes an
impression which rests somewhat upon
the effective play of light and shade,
but is rooted even more in fine
emotional conception of tragic scene

Still another collection shown at the
Anderson Galleries which Will be sold
later in the week is the Rufus t. Moore
collection of Japanese works of art,
with additions from the private collec-
tion Of Mrs Rufus +. Moore To lovers
of Japanese art objects this exhibition
will prove source of enjoyment, for
the inros, swords and sword guards are
fine examples, and in most cases are
signed by their makers. The gold and
black lacquers are also worthy of note,
and the antique potteries date back
many decades. The bronzes of the col
lection, though of more modern make,
are rich in decoration. Netsukes, wood
and ivory carvings, kakemonos and
other art objects also make an inter
esting display.

A collection of etchings, drypoints,
wood engravings and Autographs gath
cred together by a New York gentle
man is also now on view at the Ander-
son Galleries, where it viii be sold on
the evening of April 10. Among the
old masters shown are choice prints

Debucourt and Meryon, and among the
modern masters, fine examples of the
work OF Seymour Haden, Brangwyn.
Hedley Fitton, Alphonse Legros, D. Y
Cameron, James McBey and others.
The collection is made notable by the
presence of several drypoints by Rodin
in rare and fine impressions. The star
prints of the sale. however, are the
Zorns and Whistlers. Among the Zorn
etchings are the rare portrait of Bes-
nard and My Model and My Boat"
both issued in less than thirty-five
impressions. The Whistlers also con

was the first Of the series because Of
the many postponments made neces-
sary by the influenza epidemic locally
and elsewhere, necessitating change In

Bohumir Kryl Is. perhaps, the best
known cornetist before the public to-
day. He first appeared In Marshall

eral years he directed his own band
successfully. and during the last year
or two has toured with his daughters.
