PAINTINGS HERE MADE
ON FIELDS OF CARNAGE
Many French Artists Represented
in Exhibition of War Canvases
Which Opens Tomorrow

Four hundred paintings of the war, actu-
ally done on the field of battle or behind
the lines by the painters of France who were
willing to sacrifice not only their art, but
their lives in defense of their country, will
be on exhibition on the roof of the Bellevue
Stratford Hotel tomorrow. The exhibit will
close April g. The hours are from noon until
10 p. IN. daily
Nearly ninety French artists are repre-
sented in the exhibit which contains war
scenes done in water-color, oils, crayon ana
pencil, and which range in price from So
Autographs to $4,000 examples Of the work
OF Georges Scott, the famous illustrator
of "rIllustration" The pictures are all for
sale.
The exhibit is being held for two fold
purpose explained Sergeant Robert Lortac
member of the famous Blue Devils, who is
IN charge of the exhibit and who is we'll
known painter himself.
1t is to obtain funds for the benefit of the
many French artists who were wounded and
lncapacitated for the further following of
their profession, and to show to the American
people how. like every other son of France
the artist of France laid down his brush for
'he rifle when the great call came
Inc exhibit, which is constantly being
augmented, has already visited nearly a
dozen cities in the United States. In Chicago
the sales amounted to $4,000. The exhibit
Is unique and fascinating
Sergeant Lortac wears both the Military
Medal and the Croix de Guerre In the
attack on Notre Dame de Lorette, MAY 81,
1913. he was severely wounded and sDent
eighteen months in French hospital. He
spoke feelingly today Of that great battle and
of the young French boys whom he was
leading into battle as "chicks who wanted to
stay close to their mother" Every boy of
his section was captured that night in a
German counter-attack
THE exhibit which we are holding in
Philadelphia" he said, ''is such as can never
be seen again. The pictures are the works
of boys in the twenties and old men near
ing sixty, every one of whom became a
plain French soldier just because everybody
in France became soldier The paintings
are documents of scenes which nobody else
can ever see They have already passed
away
They reveal the life Of the man in battle
in heroisms and in death. These men-I
may say. we painters, for was there, too
painted what their eyes had seen Their
works are living documents of these great
and tragic events. They are not finished
paintings as we might expect in peace times
They are more than that They reveal the
depth of feeling the incompatible impress
sion of actual happenings. 1t may be one,
five, ten years before the French painter
will return to the old technical standards,
but when they do they will take their IN
piration from the works which these paint
ers have done beneath bursting shells and
behind the lines of battle"
Tomorrow at $50 p. m, in the opening
exercises of the exhibit, Mr.. de Billy, deputy
French High Commissioner, will deliver an
address. There will be other features Ad-
mission on Sunday is free.

Why Coal Goes In

To the Editor Of the Epening Public Ledger;
Sir--As head of a home who has to
pay for coal Consumed-eight tons for VI
l am much interested in some of the letters
which appear in the EVENING PUBLIC
LEDGER. That we have the pleasure of read
ing Oliver Meningitis letters is due TO your
generosity OF space l would like to say
this in passing, that Mcknight writes bet
ter article than some who are paid for the
space they consume,
But to return to coal. Why doesn't
Governor Sproul get Ex-Governor Edwin
Stuart in corner at the Union League
sometime and ask him why it Is that the
Girard estate. Of which the Ex-Governor Is
trustee. exacts such high royalty per
ton for coal from land owned by the Girard
Estate?
Here we have the funny situation of
free college" run for poor boys and the
poor boys mothers being soaked for the
coal they buy to pyramid profits for the
Girard estate. Isn't it a grand thing! Here's
writer in your paper who says pea coal
retailed for $3.50 a ton twenty-five years
ago, while yesterday I paid $40. l would
ask is there any one outside Of the operators
who can explain this big advance in price :
why doesn't Governor Sproul get the
power to take over of these mines and
have the state run 1t for time, to see just
what it costs to get coal from the mine
to cellars of the consumers? That would be
action, and would beat all the COM
missions that are ever appointed. Action is
what the people want, and not talk. These
coal companies that have their coal
"yard"(?) down in the big buildings near
Broad and Chestnut streets might have to
close their "yards"(?) If this were done.
Mr. Mcknight wants the people at eleC-
tions to show their will. Well as long as
you have voters being assisted" to vote
and the Republican machine has standing
ajority of 10000 otiiceholders before the
polls open, I am very doubtful that Oliver
Mcknight or Miss Annie Oakley will ever
