Trivial Incident" IL Description of
Only DIFFICULTY In Unit
Referred To.

New York, July s.-Part Of the
three hundred and thirty-ninth infan-
try. the regiment which was reported
to have mutinied in Siberia. has ar
rived at Hoboken on the transport Won
Steuben. Maj. ]. Brooks Nichols, in
command Of the regiment, and Capt.
H. @. Winslow, OF Company !. both de-
inied the mutiny story. They said the
incident that gave rise to the rumor
was Misunderstanding between a
sergeant and one private. Captain
Wlnslow said:
Statements by certain public men
in America caused the question Of why
we were in Russia to arise. The feel
ing that nobody knew spread. Then
Colonel Stewart explained that what
we came for originally could be sum-
med up in four points. and that since
We were there, we were then forced
to protect ourselves. The four reasons
he stated az follows:
''First,s to guard the war material
and supplies at Archangel which were
sold by the allies to the old Russian
government: second, to prevent the
Germans coming through Finland and
south Russia and establishing SUBJ
marine bases on the White Sea or the
Murmansk coast: third, to assist the
Russians in re-establishing the eastern
front and recognizing their own army,
thus divsrting some Of the Hun atten-
ton from the western front, and
fourth, to assist the Tzecho-Slovaks.
The argument between the sergeant
and the private, which started the
mutiny story, was trivial incident.
The sergeant ordered a Polish boy, a
member OF the three hundred and
thirty-ninth. to load truck. Because
the soldier could not understand Eng
lish he misunderstood the sergeant
and refused to obey orders. Later.
after little explaining. the soldier
loaded the truck. That was the near
est thing to a muntiny that we had"

ART IN DAILY LIFE

Evidently there irnpends reviva
OF interest in art. This, has. in part
been brought about by the discus.
sion of war memorials. 1t Is pretty
generally agreed that there must be
no more gortesqre memorials such
as followed the Civil War. Many
communities are already taking steps
to prevent such q calamity. The
memorials of today will be an ex-
preston OF public taste. and this taste
is better now than 1t has been in the
past.
In the discussion Of fitting memo
rails there has been revealed popu-
lar misconception Of aria persis-
tence In regarding art as something
entirely apart from life. When we
speak OF art. we usually mean only
a picture. statue, or possibly a
structure. Life is concerned with the
useful; are is concerned with the or
namental. and the tendency Is to keep
the two in separate compartments OF
the mind. In reality art is as much
a part OF life as perfume is of the
flower. or song is of the bird
How drab and colorless is the aver
age American gathering. The men
are all dressed alike in sober blacks,
browns, and dark blues, and the
women-well, weil--they are told
what to wear by some authority in
New York or Paris whom they follow
with implicit faith We may realize
how DUH and uniform is our garb
when we compare it with the bright
turbans, the flowing robes, the varied
colors worn by orientals. In the west
We have hardly realized the posi-
bility of color effects in dress, and we
continue to think of art as something
confined for safe keeping to a museum
or gallery to be visited once or twice
In a life time.
Art Is a matter of daily life; 1t is
an essential feature of home and Of
flee, of shop and factory. of street
and town. II 1t is not right here in
our daily life. we are the poorer and
our civilization the less interesting.
Art Is an asset to any city or state.
People are drawn to settle in a beau
tiful city. Art concerns our exports
and imports, our foreign trade and
our manufacturing. Every time we
buy rug from India or pottery from
England we are building up foreign
artisans at the expense OF American
industry.
Let US train our artisan artists
here. There is plenty of talent in our
public schools; let us encourage 1t by
maintaining more industrial art
schools. The artisan artist stands be-
hind the success of our industries and
our foreign trade. We must produce
him In America; we cannot any longer
borrow him from Europe. She needs
her own and will keep him there.
When we feel that art Is an indis-
pensable part of life, We shall teach
children to use color. pattern and de-
sign with such skin that they may
make their daily life a thing of beauty
and joy forever
