Adams ana his friend. the late Prof
Langley of Washington. are doing the
Paris Exposition of 1900
Nothing in education IS so astonish-
ing as the amount Of ignorance it ac-
cumulates in the form OF inert facts
Adams had looked at most of the accu-
mutations Of art in the storehouses of
art museums; yet he did not know
how to look at the art exhibits of 1900
He had studied Karl Marx and his doc
trines of history with profound atten-
ton, yet he could not apply them at
Paris. Langley. with the ease of a
great master of experiment. threw out
% the field every exhibit that did not
reveal a new application of force. and
naturally threw out. to begin with. al
most the whole art exhibit. Equally
he ignored almost the whole industrial
exhibit. He led his pupil directly to
the forces"
His chief interest was in new
motors TO make his airship feasible,
and he taught Adams the astonishing
complexities of the new Daimler motor,
and of the automobile, which, since
1898 had become nightmare at a
hundred kilometers an hour, almost as
destructive as the electric tram, which
was only ten years older. and threat
ening to become as terrible as the loco
motive steam engine itself. which was
almost exactly Adlms's own age"
Then he showed his scholar the
great hall of dynamos and explained
how little he knew about electricity or
force of any kind even OF his own
| special sun, which spouted heat in in
conceivable volume, but which, as far
as he knew, might spout less or more
at any time, for all the certainty he
felt in it, To him the dynamo itself
was but an ingenious channel for con-
veying somewhere the heat latent in n
few tons of poor coal hidden In Il dirty
engine house carefully kept out of
sight; but to Adams the dynamo be-
came symbol of infnity."
"As he grew accustomed to the great
han Of machines, he began to feel the
forty foot dynamos as a moral force,
much az the early Christians felt the

as a fiction of thought. In these seven
years man had translated himself into
a new universe which had no common
scale OF measurement with thes old.
He had entered a supersensuai world in
which he could measure nothing ex-
cept by chance collisions of movements
imperCeptible to his senses, perhaps
imperceptible to his instruments, but
perceptible to each other, and SO to
some known ray at the end of the
scale. Langley seemed Prepared for
anything, even for an indeterminable
number of universes interfused-
physics stark mad in metaphysics"
Adams was thus reduced to his last
resources. Clearly IL he was bound
TO reduce all these forces to a common
value, this common value could have
no measure but that of their attraction
on his own mind. He must treat them
as tbey had been felt: as conversible.
reversible, interchangeable attractions
on thought. He made up his mind to
venture it: he would risk translating
rays into faith. Such reversible
process would vastly amuse a chemist,
but the chemist could not deny that he
or some Of his fellow physicists could
feel the force of both. When Adams
was boy in Boston the best chemist
in the place had probably never heard
of Venus except by way of scandal. or
! Of the Virgin except as idolatry;
neither had he heard of dynamos, or
automobiles or radium: yet his mind
was ready to feel the force of all
though the rays were unborn and the
women were dead
Here opened another totally new
education. which promised to be by far
the most hazardous Of all. The knife
| edge along which he must crawl, like
Sir Lancelot in the twelfth century,
| divided two kingdoms of force which
had nothing in common but attraction.
They We're as different as magnet Is
from gravitation. surprising one knew
! what magnet was or gravitation or

| still felt at Lourdes, and seemed TO be
as potent as N-rays; but in America
! neither Venus nor Virgin ever had
value as force-at most as sentiment.
No American had ever been truly
afraid of either"
This problem in dynamics gravely
perpleXed an American historian. The
Woman had once been supreme: In
France she still seemed potent, not
merely as a sentiment but as q force.
| Why was she unknown in America ?
| For evidently America was ashamed of
| her, and she was ashamed OF herself.

William Orpen is as a painter, and
much appreciated here, is represented
by twenty three drawings of the west
ern front, at home among the indus
trial workers, or afloat with the grand
fleet. Some of these are In colored
chalk, some heightened with wash.
There are twanty-four water color
drawings of James McBey, who was
the official artist of the Egyptian and
Palestine expeditions and whose work
at this corner of the war has been
most memorable. Another group Of
pictures that will be shown, represent
ing what is spoken of as the new art
of England, Expressionism. are Chris
topher Richard Wynne Nevinson's,
twenty-three in all. These ''interpre-
tations OF war" attracted great atten-
ton in England. Nevinson has been
motor transport driver, mechanic, hos
pital orderly and official artist in the
war, and knows modern battles as few
do from every possible angle. Some of
his most ardent admirers say that he
"interprets" war rather than ''illus-
trates" war
Wyndham Lewis is the leader of the
Norticists in London and formerly was
cubist. Three curious pictures of

An exhibition of especial importance
to art students is that of a selection Of
drawings by old masters from the j.
Pierpont Morgan collection, now on
view in tho New York Public Library.
Primarily drawings make their
strong appeal through the sense which
they give OF intimate view Of the ar
lists methods, a fact emphasized by
various writer's - Chateaubriand for
example. and Sidney Colvin. In look
, ing at them we are, 80 TO speak, look
ing over the artists shoulder as he
works. We get an insight into his at
titude toward life and art at times
, when he may be troubled little or not

! taneity. drectness, a freshness of
| impression which may not be always

STATE SUFFRAGISTS
SEE VICTORY SURE
IN SENATE TONIGHT
Legislators Agreed Resolution
for Referendum Will Pass.
Opponents Abandon Fight
By a StuT Correspondent

Harrisburg, May 26.-Suffragists are
confident of victory in the Senate to-
night, after a fight of almost four years
for legislative sanction to submit their
cause to a referendum of the voters.
The suffrage constitutional amend
ment, introduced last March in the
House by Representative William T.
Ramsey, of Delaware county, will come
up for final action on n special order
of business at 10 o'clock.
Legislative leaders are virtually a
unit in declaring that the resolution
will pass the Senate by substantial
majority. Anti suffragists virtually
have abandoned their fight on the meas
ure since its passing in the House by
big majority.
A suffrage amendment was submitted
to the voters in 1915, and was defeated
The 1917 Legislature refused to pass
another resolution.
If the present resolution passes the
Senate tonight, which is counted on as
a certainty, it must pass the Legisla
turc two years hence and then be sub :
mitted to the voters of the State at
the November election in 1921.
Should the national suffrage amend >
ment pass. Legislative leaders might use
the referendum in 1921 as factor for
determining what action the succeed =
ing Legislature would take in the way
of ratification.

Interested i'm War Work
During the last few years Mrs. Bar
low has divided her time between war
work and outdoor sports, giving up all
other social engagements. Her only
son, Kenneth Barlow. also n golf
champion. was killed in action the first
year of the war. He was among the
first to enlist in the English army, and
Mrs. Barlow began her war work long
before America had joined the Allies.
But each season her hours of recrca :
tion have been on the golf links and
each year the medals and cups have
been showcred upon her.
She has won the local championship
seven times and has been a national
finalist twice. The eastern women s
championship. one of the most i'm :
portant in this section of the country.
has been hers three times. She has won
the Gcist cup six times. the Shawnee
tournament five times, the north and
south championship two or three times
and the Deal tournamcnt several times.
She has won more medal play cOmpeti-
tion than any other golfer in this coun-
try and ranks today among the two or
three best women players in America.
Woman's age is usually a mystery
and so it is with this sportswoman. She
has been and is able to hold highest
place against her own children and other
sport lovcrs-young and old. LOath
to speak of her own accomplishments
she is at the same time happy in her
ability.
