THE PALACE OF THE
GOVERNORS AT SANTA E'E.
LEI Palacio Real en- La Villa dc Real
de Santa Fe de San Francisco
de Assisi.)
By John Curtis Underwood
in eel Palacio."

1t lies, a long, low procession of life
epitomized, rough-cast in adobe,
Like a slow and plodding line of old
Spanish Conquistadores,
Struggling through dust and heat,
dead beat footmen following sweat
ing horsemen.
Trailing rusty lances idly, and leaving
dusty burrows in the sand behind
them,
On the endless trail from Old Mexico
to New Mexico.
And the corral and the tenting grew
to a courtyard and patio with
shaded arcades
Such as the Moors made in Cordoba
with rows of tent poles for their
first slim pillars.
The Spanish captains and governors
came to herd and pasture their peo-
pie here.
And they made a greater sheepfold
and a Great House for the herding,
and the people called it FL Palacio.
1t stands as gray as the sheep, with
tree trunk pillars brown as stripped
posts of corrals,
Made of the same sun-dried mud that
the older herders and builders
Long and broadly based, primitive and
significant as pueblo or pyramid,
Where time made it a gray and last
ing monument of race that passed
and yet lives here.
1t stands a tomb of the past, and a
treasure house of gray traditions
and hidden histories
1t stands like an old gray college OF
cloisters in Toledo or Salamanca.
More<than tomb or college or cloister
it embodies the past and interprets
it,
| With the leaves of its libraries the
ticking of its typewriters, the call
ing of it's telephones talking today
and tomorrow.
And the brown. ranked pillars of it:
long arcade are the pillars of proud
triumphal arches,
| Where great ghosts of the past stride
through them, and then stand bacl
again and mingle
With the natives and the tourists, anC
the painters and poets and lovers il
the Plaza in the moonlight whit
II linger and love it,

TWO COIORFUI EXHIBITS,

The alcoves of the Museum galleries
simply glow with color this week.
They partake something of the spring
sunshine and the myriads of Easter
blossoms in homes and gardens. The
very first alcove the visitor steps into
as he leaves the library IS a simmer
of dainty, soft color that fairly sings
the harmonies in the pastels of Miss
Agnes Pelton of New York and Con-
necticut, being comparable to SYM
phonies. They are Taos landscapes
and few people have realized how
beautiful is Taos in winter-and por-
traits of Taos pueblos. all done as it
were with exhuberance. with joy, with
an individualized and poetic realism
that makes the exhibit most attrac-
tive. There is view from Taos south

"And Death is dead, and new times

'And Heavens ways justified. and
Christ alive,
"Whom we saw die. nailed on the
cruel cross"
from The Light of the World
by Sir Edwin Arnold.
Holy Week has been celebrated
this year with perhaps greater deVo-
ton and more profound reverence
than ever before. The world, which
has suffered long because of the nor
rors of a great war, is looking for
ward with hopeful eXpectant eyes to
the new times which shall come with
the consumation of peace. Millions
have given freely, body and soul. to
the cause of humanity; Christllke they
have given their lives that others
might be saved.
Beginning tomorrow the American
people, who have been saved from
worse than death by the sacrifices so
freely made, are asked to make their
final payment on the price of peace.
From the red fields of France and
Flanders comes the cry that cannot
be stilled:
ITO YOU from failing hands we throw
The torch: be yours to hold 1t hlgh
If We break faith with US who die
We shall not sleep, though peoples
grow
