Wyant and His Landscapes.

In SirtU Paintings by Alexander IT.
WDdnt. described by ELIOT CLARK and
privately printed by Frederic Fairchild
Sherman, one of the most engaging Of
the great school of American land
scape artists of the last half Of the last
century takes his proper place with
George Inness, Homer Martin Ralph
Blakelock and the other masters rep
resented in the same beautiful series.
The photographers are superb and the
typography perfect, as is the case with
all that comes from this source of ade-
quate reproduction.
Comparatively few of Wyant's can
vases show dates: the range OF the
dated paintings here exhibited is from
1866 to 1885. Among the most note
worthy examples are the lovely great
BROAD Silent Valley" now in the
Hearn collection in the Metropolitan
Museum of Art; the dramatic and
powerful vision of Natures elemental
forces known as "Any Mans Land, "
and the Connecticut Valley" and
Passing Shadows" respectively be-
longing to the collections of Samuel
Untermyer and the late Jacob II.
Schiff.
Perhaps what strikes one most IN
this generously ample review of
wants genius is the hompgeneity Of
its achievements; the substantial uni
formity of his sensitive perception and
decisive touch throughout the success
sive manners of a long and prolific pro-
duction. The volume supplements a
predecessor from Mr.. Sherman's estab-
lishment containing n general critical
monograph on Wyant with a smaller
number of representative plates All
the materials, however, for under
standing and appreciation are Afforded
in this second Wyant book by Mr..
Clark's sympathetic descriptions of the
sixty paintings.

LESSON FOR A CITIZEN.
A Woman Voters Mild Rebuke TO a
Discontinued Tenant.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD l am
prompted to reply to the letter printed
under the caption "A Citizen on Strike
in the hope that my mild rebuke may
cause the writer who signs himself ''Cit-
izen" to see the error of his ways.
While 1 sympathize with his disgust
and dissatisfaction with conditions gen.
orally and rent laws in particular. l am
WONDERING if he would rot himself admit
on further consideration that the course
he has threatened to adopt with respect
to his own citizenship and the future
citizenship of his sons is as dangerous
as 1t would be ineffective.
1t is dangerous in that 1t reads not
unlike beginners lesson In Bolshevisrn,
and ii would be ineffective in that II men
Of his type refrain from fulfilling their
duties as citizens the inscriptions who
make use of poliycs and public offices to
promote their own pet schemes and those
of their henchmen will have the field en-
tire!y to themselves and will be free to
continue unhampered their destructive
work OF impairing and vitiating our pub
lie institutions
If Mr.. Citizens desire for improved
conditions is as strong as his resentment,
instead of talking about going on strike
re should be willing to work overtime in
intelligent discussion of the questions at
issue among his friends and business
associates in IN erdeavor so to influence
public opinion against all forms OF graft
ps-itical chicancry and Official corruption
thai their practice may become less and
ess profitable and eventually cease al
together
Needless to say, Mr.. Citizen should
also revise the code of ethics he would
have .his sons follow to accord with the
foregoing if no would have them become
men who would be proud of their coun-
try and of whom their country might be
Iroud. AN AMERICAN WOMAN VOTER.

HOOVER WANTS TO SEE
A CLEAN c. o. p. SWEEP
FaUors WadsWorth's Return
to Senate as Essential.

Herbert Hoover wants to see the Re-
publicans make a clean sweep in Novem-
Der. Writing to Senator Joseph S.
Frelinghuysen in support of the candi-
dacy of United States Senator James w.
Wadsworth, Jr., Mr.. Hoover said:
Il believe strongly it is essential in
the interest of the country that the Re-
publican party should assume the fun
responsibilities of government during
the next four years, and that II should
be held strictly responsible to the coun-
try for the discharge of its pledges. in
GLIDING the creation OF an international
association for the preservation of peace
and the measures of reconstruction that
have been so wofully neglected by the
Democratic Administration.
81, of course. hope that Senator Wads-
worth will be reelected. 1t is vital that
the Congress as well as the President
should be Republican IL we are to have
the cohesion necessary to solve the prob
lens ahead. | perhaps have not always
agreed with the Senator's views in some
few matters, but in even these things his
stand has always been honest and cour-
ageous-the most essential qualities
in public servants. The Senator's dis
tinguished work as chairman OF the
Committee OH Military Affairs should be
ample evidence of his high abilities and
sense OF service"

MILESTONES OF A
MEDICAL SCHOOL
The Past and Present of the
College of Physicians
and Surgeons.

! Not merely professional but a quite
general public interest rs awakened By
the beautiful series of Photographic
portraits of The Faculty Of the College
, Of Physicians and Surgeons, by DORIS
Z. JAEGER. These pictures, in large
quarto form, are published by Paul b.
Hoeber, with an historical foreword by
Dean Lambert. Twice before has there
appeared such a memorial of this VEN
cradle and venerated medical institu-
ton In 1876, while the college was
still in Crosby street, there was issued
autographed sheet presenting the
likenesses of the seven chiefs of, the
faculty at that time. In that group
OF quarters of a century ago
We're Willard Parker and John Il. Beck
among others. In 1875 similar litho-
graphic broadside recorded a faculty
which contained such eminent men as
L. Gaillard Thomas, Alonzo Clark and
John c. Dalton.
Dean Lambert points out in his pref
ace the fact that to the earlier faculty
the Willard Parker Seneration-was
due the introduction into medical edu-
cation in New York OF the methods of
clinical lectures and OF bedside obser-
walton in the hospital wards which
have made the P,Nis school famous.
Then the generation al DR.. Thomas and
DR.. Dalton contributed "the enormous
advantages Of laboratory instruction
in the medical sciences and also the
rft
cialties of medicine" Ten years later
the faculty of the early nineties in
troduced into New York the methods
of teaching and the organization of
hospitals which through the detailed
work of the Germans had made Vi
emma and Berlin the centres Of the edu-
cational world in the science of medi-
cine In its progress toward a dis
tinctly American system of education
combining the best there is in all the
European systems America passed
France before 1870 and Germany be-
fore 1914 "Botlf>countries." says DR..
Lambert, failed to continue in the
foremost place because each became
self-centred and exclusively rejected
the medical progress of the rest of the
civilized world"
The portraits which present the
group of men of 1920 upon whom de-
wolves the duty of extending the in
influence of New York in medical edu-
cation, so far as Columbia University
is concerned, are twenty-four in num-
Der, beginning with President Nicholas
Murray Butler, and including the
o. 3
the time of the preparation of the
memorial The photographs are artis-
tic in the extreme. with a variety of
pose and an individuality of expression
which make the collection notable of
its kind. We call attention particu-
larly to the remarkable head of the
late DR.. Abraham Jacob. emeritus
professor of diseases of children up
to the time of his DEATH a year or
more ago.

What the Republicans Really Spent
I'm the Maine Campaign.

One of the several excuses given by
the Democrats after the Msine cleo
ton was lack Of money. The infer
cnce TO be drawn was that the Repub
llcans had showered the Pine Tree
state with currency. The statement
fled with the Maine Secretary OF
State by the Republican State Com
mittee shows just how much truth
there was in the suggestion.
The Republicans disbursed $40, 20G.
Reducing this to familiar basis, the
wicked and wealthy Republicans spent
about twenty-five cents on the inform
ing and exhortation Of each Maine
family. in the whole state, in all of
that momentous campaign. the Repub-
ifcans spent the price of half dozen
first class motor cars.

A Suggestion for Business Men Who
Sign Letters.

The First Assistant Postmaster-G Gen.
eral, Mr.. Rooms, states factsupon which
he bases a request to business men
to put into Office practice twice a
day schedule for signing mail. The
postal service handles on an average
100000 letters an hour. Each let.
ter, from collector to carrier. is han
died eight times, which makes an
average of 100000 landings an
hour throughout the day.
sThe task, however, is made enor-
mously more difficult by the fact that
10 per cent of the first class mail
must be handled between the hours
of 4 and 8 p. NJ This, Mr.. Rooms
asserts, is because in practically all
large Offices. commercial, industrial
and financial, there is but one mail
signing period a day, just before the
signers leave their offices.
\ test was made to try out the
theory that signing letters twice a
day would reduce the evening congeS-
ton by at least one-half. Rochester
was selected for the test. Its Cham
Der of Commerce urged cooperation
by business men and. says Mr. Rooms.
1--WE reduced the mailing in the eve
ming from IS to SO per cent. of the en-
tire volume of mail, thus. greatly eX-
pediting it,
Mr. kooNs also points out that in
many instances letter mailed at
noon or soon after that hour, bene-
filing by IN earlier despatch, reaches
its destination from half n day to Il
whole day sooner than one mailed in
the evening congestion.

! A middle aged man writes to us ex-
pressing his regret that Presidential
campaigns are not enlivened with
lights and music as they were thirty
or forty years ago. Then it was a very
small settlement that did not have its
rival flag poles. Every village had at
least two fife and drum corps Every
town saw gorgeous parades Of parti-
sans in uniform and every uniform was
well smeared, before election, with oil
from the torches that the marchers
carried. But think how cheap uni
forms werc then. And shoes were 50
q pair. And you could get a whole
gallon of kerosene for eight cents.
