Five Hundred Studies Plac-

WASHINGTON, June 2.-The story
Of the American Expeditionary Force
is told in pictures on the walls Of the
National Museln here in a perma
nent exhibit just opened 10 the pub

Drawn from life in paint, pen ano
ink or pencil by American artists
commissioned and sent to the front
for that purpose, the collection OF
nearly 800 studies detailing almost
every phase OF life In the army over.
seas Is spread over the walls Of half
a dozen great, well lighted rooms. II
is tale OF stirring action which they
disclose.
Among the scenes depicted are
ruined French villages made sacred
forever to Americans because OF
American blood freely given to. tear
them from German hands. There are
the homely, appealing scenes from be-
hind the lines with happy.golucky
youngsters Of Pershings division In
billets mixing among the people Of
France, the very old and the very
young people. Here and there are
grim reminders Of the great tragedy
in groups Of huddled dead In wrecked
enemy trenches over which the tide
OF victory had poured. Again, half
glimpSed through downpour OF rain,
a trudging, sodden infantry column is
moving onward through a sea Of mud
as the artist saw It; or an endless
line Of weary gun teams drags forward
the batteries to blast the road to trl-
tImph.
At one point the artist caught ano
held for his fellow Countrymen the
breathless tensity Of a forest outpost,
peering through the leafy screen OF
his covert toward the enemy lines,
his rifle Rugged close with fingers
c!inche6 about the trigger; at another
a flash Of light from a half-opened
door has painted on the screen Of
night Just hint at a column, tramp
ing on toward battle, just a young
face or two in the line, weary, dirty
but with jaws grim set with purpose.
Again it is 4 hospital that has grip
ped the artist imagination, a twisted,
writhing form under the tumbled
blanket with agony in every line and
over it the steadyeyed surgeon or
the merciful figure Of an army nurse.
In rooms around the picture display
are shown all tho countless things
with which the army and the navy

bombs, the uniforms Of ally and en-.

man war gear Of many kinds. These
form a striking setting for the epic
tale the war artists have pictured,
probably the only such record ever as
sembled for it began with the army
and runs on to the departure Of the
homeward transports at the close.
