EXHIBIT OAKLEY PAINTINGS
State Capitol Decorations Now on Show at
Academy

There are being exhibited in the Pennsyl-
vania Academy of the Fine Arts the last
two of the series Of mural decorations painted
by Miss Violet Oakley for the Senate cham
Der at Harrisburg.
The panels. after being placed on ex-
hbition for one week. will be sent to Harris
burg. and will be unveiled and dedicated by
Governor-elect Sproul soon after his inaugu-
ration The paintings measure 12h by 3
feet, and are In brilliant color, In harmony
with the panels already in the Capitol.
According to Miss Oakley. peace is the
main subject OF the paintings. Planned be-
fore the war, in 1912, they have been COM
pieted when a league Of nations to enforce
peace is no longer considered an impracti-
cable dream Of the idealists. but is the great
issue of the hour.
The new paintings. though finished last.
are historically the first In the series, the
theme Of which Is the Creation and Preser-
walton of the Union" They are a symbolic
expression of the two great commandments
on which hang all the law and the
prophets" The first represents the Force OF
Dominating Truth in Principle: the second
is Force of Dominating Love of Brethren"

Sir
I am glad own cardboard. by which

And though have no riches, or many other

I at least can go and come without the

For instance, since I missed my train
thought I'd take a car
And after walking quite some time, with
temper UP to par.
I stood. with others, waiting the omnpotent
great man
(The motor soul who looks at one ana
passes II he canD.
But the car which we all wanted went whirl.
Ing quickly by.
Tor us (the crowd) was nothing left but
waiting and the sigh.
One, two, three, four and others went UP tho

And then there came our tardy car land 50

OF course. II was quite fully c~cked. and
while had a seat
I might as well have stood in line tenduring
weary feet).
For heat was booming underneath, my caas
was more than hot,
And while the perspiration oozed sorrowsA
for my lot,
And now wait in patience for the train fer
travel mine
I've had enough! and even more. upon the

TALE OF TANK FIGHTS
THRILLS MEADE MEN
Private Yeager Tells of Narrow
Escape From Death in
Land Ship" Asbestos

Camp Meade, Admiral. Md. Jan. MANY
khaki-clad young Americans who wear silver
service chevrons were taken on a tour of
the devastated area IN the vicinity of Cam
orai In a tank this afternoon by n khaki-clad
comrade VINO wore gold service cheyron
and couple of wound chevrons The tour
TOOK place IN the Hostess House. Private
Andrew Il. Yeager. of Company A, 3Olst
Tank Corps told of his journey in the good
"land-ship" Asbestos. Yeager was a member
OF the 3lbth Infantry, unit OF the Seventy
ninth Division, and was selected for service
at Chester. Pa. in the first draft
September 28, when four tanks of the 30l at
Corps set out under a heavy smoke barrage
TO break through the German lines. Yeager
was In charge Of a siS-pounder in the Asbes-
tos. the only one that attained the objective
and the only one that escaped destruction
When the smoke screen lifted the tanks
were easy targets for the German shells and
according to Yeager, the Huns poured tons
OF steel at the huge monsters, which were
slowly bringing death to them and des rue
tion to the trenches. One by one the other
tanks were destroyed by the Germans, but
the Asbestos kept until 1t was making
direct hits on Germans with the guns and
blowing them to bits.
Yeager's comrade. who feeding the
shells to the gun he was operating. was put
out of commission by German bullet that
entered the tank through a small opening.
Then he fed and fired the gun himself. His
telescope was destroyed by a German bullet
and the eye-piece of the telescope few back
and struck him over the eye.
In spite Of this. Yeager kept at his post.
His face was covered with blood from the
wound he had received. and he had no way
Of finding the objects at which he was firing.
He kept the gun In operation. however. Then
bullet entered the tank and. entering
Yeager's hand. incapacitated him. He de-
clared that hundreds Of shells OF all kinds
were fired at the Asbestos. but that the good
ship" lived up to its name.
