rather than manner. Ways are ways
and manners are manners. styles come
and go. and they have their times and
their places, but the thing that counts
the underlying fact, is the result of the
real creative emotion, the substance, the
thing accomplished, something that is not

that will call out in every century the
true artistic understanding and renew the
old creative delight sEFsr. ,.-
Let US grant that the oubists, for ex-

ger The danger in any art long prac-
ticed is sophistication-a settling into
forms and manners. The young artist is
taught in the old forms. and is ever
tempted to lose sight of the personal, spe-
ciaI gift that nature has placed within
him and to work contentedly within the
old limits and barriers of forms Settled
and acknowledged.
But if he ever breaks away and issues
his declaration of independence, then at
once appears the dweller on the thresh-
hold of that independence. namely, the
temptation to insist on his new forms to
the loss of sight of the substance of his
art. To many this seems genuine and
honest criticism of the cubists or other
modern revolutionary schools of art They
have lost the old substance in the newer
style. In some recent "reminiscences of
the British bar, ]. 4. Strahan goes back
to his student days when the teaching
staff consisted of such men as James
Bryce. Frederic Harrison. John d. Mayne
and others. He says that Frederic Har-
rison was a great disappointment as a
teacher in that his net accomplishment
was Ito make the simple difficult and the
obvious obscure" Minds there are that
consider this to be the process of deep
leaEning. The opposite is the truth.
We may put it down as fact in art
that manners are merely manners and a
style is a style, but that the thing that
counts is the underlying fact. To paint

group, is far below and subsidiary to get

a course of lectures to students Josiah
Royce once began the description of an
angel who had said that, by his expert
ence, two and two made five. There was
a pause. The students expected Prof.
Royce to Say that there might conceiy-
ably be a consciousness that would appre-
bend two and two as really equalling five.
But instead, he burst out fiercely thus -

The Pardon of Graham.
{ Pennington BANNER. J

Governor Clements pardon of former
Governor Graham has stirred up a vast
amount of buzzing both in the state and
out. Some of the big city papers have
sclemnly and ponderously roasted Gov
ernor Clement Tor doing what many 9th
ers, including The Banner. think was the
proper and eommendable act
1t is one of those holly contested ques-
tions on which people refuse to agree and
argument over the issue merely renders
the partisans more firmly of the same
opinion still.
The critics hold that Governor Clement
has interfered with the findings of court
OF justice and that the governors act will
have a tendency to make it difficult to
secure conviction in other cases.
Supporters of the governors clemency
in the case. on the other hand. contend
that the court erred at the trial and that
the conviction of Graham on the charge
of embezzlement was due to political pres
sure and not in accord with justice, and,
therefore, Governor Clement was iusti-
fed in exercising his constitutional right
to pardon.
Still another point Of view is that Mr.
Graham was guilty of misrepresentation
of funds but not Of larceny or embezzle-
ment, and that for the lesser 0ffenSe his
punishment in loss of standing. in finan-
cial ruin, in the obloquy to which he has
been exposed. in the complete break down
of his physical strength. and the pitiful
position in which he finds himself at the
door of old age and want, is sufficient
punishment. and that in view Of all these
things, a prison sentence was an unwar-
ranted cruelty.
Probably more people hold to this
third view of the case than to either OF
the others. The constitution gives the
governor the power to pardon any per
son convicted by the state courts and he
has used that power according to his
judgment. No one will accuse Governor
Clement of lacking the courage of his
convictions.
No divorces are granted in South Caro-
lima.

Near the frigid Greenland shore,
Start the kitchen fire to blazing,

Then it is j feel turnin'

And there comes a kind of yearnin'
For the city and its strife.

Withdrew at last thro' gates of gray,
And on the threshold paused to cast
One longing. lingering look the last
The uncurtained windows of the wood,
Showed ioyless in the solitude
And by the threshold where she died,
One solitary cricket cried.
Like ghosts of the unquiet dead,
The winds went by with soundless

And in the silence that prevailed.
The Night her sable garments trailed.

tell you that this treaty, to my mind
is more imperfect production than
anything the Peace conference has
done.
You will have war in AiSa Minor

Armenia is to be created an indie

probably be rather contracted, as it is
believed the smaller the country the
more easily can it take care of itself
The council sent a somewhat vague
letter to the League of Nations, asking

Heart Disease Causes Death.
When members of Senator Nelson's 8
household went to her bedroom to
summon her to breakfast, it was found
that she was dead
Physicians were called. They said
death was due to heart disease, prob
ably caused by overexertion.
Despite her S3 years, Miss Sanford
was unusually active and took promi
nent part in the D. A. R. convention
At the opening of the session she de
livered an apostrophe on the Ameri
can flag. She was given an ovation
by the convention. 1t was regarded
as patriotic masterpiece, and Miss
Sanford had made arrangements to &C
to New York city to have the speech
recorded on phonograph records
which were to be used in spreading
patriotism in the United States.

Miss Sanford was one of the leading
women educators of the country. She
was born at Old Saybrook, Conn, 50
