at the present exhibition of paintings
and drawings by this artist at the
Bourgeois Galleries.
Emile Branchard was born in New
York. His father, a painter. was a
pupil Of Meissoner, and worked after
the manner of his master. But the
work of the younger Blanchard shows
no trace of Mel sonier's influence. He
began to paint about seven years ago,
but only for his own amusement, not
with the idea of becoming an artist.
In boCh his paintings and drawings
there is q strong note OF individuality.
Fe has sure instinct in The use of
ccors, and judging by the serene and
opt mistic spirit OF his work. ii is evi-
dent that it was done not as strain
ing after professional fame. but as an
amusement A distinguishing feature
of his work is passion for painting
trees, and he is particularly successful
with birches.
Modernity is the keynote of the ex-
hib ton at the Dariels Ga lerv. In the
east gallery, among other canvases Of
similar nature, is one. Joseph Stella's

CLANCY company. There came a time
when illness interrupted his modelling
and Pauline did not see him for
months. Then, when she sought him
out, she found that the house in the
Rue Victor -Masse in which he had
lived for twenty-five years had been
marked for demolition, to make way
for modern building, and she fol-
lowed Degas to new quarters in the
Boulevard de Clichy. Zoe received her
with Joy and took her at once to the
master, Who was at table. He lifted
his head and asked Pauline briefly
what she wished. She had only called
"Yes," said he. zoe. bring me my

There is an appeal to patriotic inter
est in the exhibition of engraved por-
traits Of Washington and other Ameri-
can celebrities of the Colonial and Rev
o'utionary period by their contempo-
rary en~ravers now on view at Ken

unusual opportunity to study many of
the rarest and finest examples of en-
craving, produced toward the end Of
the eighteenth and the beginning of
the nineteenth century in mezzotinto,
line, stipple and aquatint.
Very remarkable, indeed, are the
paintings of Ireland by Power O'Mal

door wide for his tactless guest to de-
part.
Where is the searcher after beauty
in this atmosphere of dust, work and
ill-temper? Pauline speaks of his
always giving her difficult poses. He
had an aversion. as it seemed to her
to all gracious movement. But his
cult for what we may call severity
never blinded him to the charm of
pure nature. He. was enraged if he
caught Pauline using rouge. "When
one is young and fresh there is no
need for such fripperies. Restez denc
naturelle." She asked him why, then,
he loved to draw his themes from the
theatre, where there is so much that is
Fictitious, but to this she got no an
swer. There are no nuances of his
artistic ideal emerging from the dia-
logue. One is made aware chiefly of
just his passion for art, for work

God will forgive me for neglecting my
Christian devotions for my work. In
his absorption he was merciless to his
models. There was one of them, Suzon
who had the hardilood to be quarter
of an hour late for her mornings
work. Degas dismissed her the mo-
ment she turned up, giving her the
five francs due for the sitting, but
forbidding her ever to- return. His
own hours were as adamant. Forain
found out when Degas once came to
dine with him. The dinner was for

who said so, and sat down to his soup
alone at eight. He never dined there

his characterization Of Irish people
like his vision of Irish scenery, is sim

with broad. free sweep, yet it does
not lack finish Perhaps his most
striking realization of type is the old
woman in "The Last Word" yet it is
hard to choose between this and "Ter-

lCWanceS made to the embassies and
legations are absurd considering
the value of the service rendered and

with the liberal policies of other gov

ice, he said, should be recognized, as
is done in the case of the consular
service. Furthermore, he urged that
American business men use their in
fuence toward the establishment of
appropriate buildings to house Amer
lean embass and legations, so that
American prestige in foreign lands
may not suffer. oThe American for

ing burdens and problems imposed
upon it with the cumulative expan-
sion Of American commerce.

beaten and Germany will have won
the war"
THE moral interest of the United
States is to continue to help Europe"
Mr.. Schneider said. You have proved
TO the world that for the sake of an
ideal you are capable of the greatest
sacrifices. and now that finapcial and
commercial interests enter into the
question would you shrink from help
ing?
Il am convinced that the United
States cannot hold aloof from Europe
The needs of Europe are great and
varied and she will remain for long

exchange we should cease buying
