LANDSCAPE BY CAL. COLOR ARTIST ARE
 IN LOCAL EXHIBIT

In the art collection being exhibited by Macdonald Macguire at Doris Heyman's are shown three examples of Ralph Davidson Miller's work. At the exhibition of the paintings of MT. Miller in San Francisco. MT. Mcguire was so, impressed with the artists ability to reproduce nature in its truest forms, that he came to the conclusion that he had discovered a true master of land scape painting and predicts for him wonderful future. The three examples of this wonderful color artist are "Cy- press Point at Monterey" perhaps the most beautiful. Mount Tolac, near Lake Tahoe" and" The Hopi Indian Girl" painted at La Baba, close to the canyon.
 Ralph Dawson Miller is a true paint CT of the west, and some of his paint ings of California, the picturesque, the poetic, the beautiful, are unexcelled. Millers work is modern and dramatic very bold and alive with bright colors and strong contrasts. He paints land scapes well because he not only sees but thinks deeply. Some of his older works exemply this fact, especially Tn Sonomo" which is the Indian for Valley of the Moon
 MT. Miller has lived in California, said Mir. Mcguire. for twenty years. yet unlike most of his associates. he does not like to paint the southern eucA- lyptus and sycamore, neither does the massy oak commend itself to his plans of composition. He chooses, rather, the northern poplars, and English oaks. or the expresses of Monterey. Many of his works, he said. have been painted in Arizona; a worthy example of these is Desert Cactus Here the sky is of turquois with yellowish cloud, the hills purple, coming forward in the

SEATTLE INSURANCE COMPANY |S BARRED
 FROM ALL ARIZONA

The Western Union Life Insurance company of Seattle has been barred by the state corporation commission from this state and it's manager. Charles F. Price. is barred from soliciting insur- ance for it or any other insurance company in Arizona
 Three complaints, all of the same character and originating about the same time, had been laid before the commission. The first was that of J. F. Fleming, who said that he had been solicited and had taken out policy for life insurance of the amount of $10,000 on which he had paid a premium of nearly s400, with the understanding that the company was to loan him S2,SO0 on certain property. This was in June of last year. About that time VOlly C. Musgrave was approached by the agent who sold him S20,000 worth of life insurance. as Musgrave said with the understanding that the in- surance company would make him a loan. In both of these cases the loan was refused after some months of negotiation. Musgrave's premium was s6S3
 Then came the case or James F. Dol ing and Alfa Doling who had been in- duced to take out a policy of s10,000. cash premium amounting to nearly S4OO was paid in this case.
 All these complainants when they found they could not get their loans demanded the premiums back, but in all cases that was refused.
 Considerable testimony was taken in all these cases, and as a result of the hearing, the commission held that the company and Price had acted in viola = tion of tine law which forbids rebates and special inducements for the pur- pose of securing business.
