From New York Daily Telegram
The promise, least thy bread

TO thee after many days. has been
fulfilled by Belgian artists who have
sent TO this country nine paintings
produced on emptied hour sacks,
which are being exhibited free at
St Marks Hall, in the rear of ST.
Marks Church, No pa East Ele-
yenth street. where they are on sale.
The pictures. about two feet
long, by sixteen to eighteen inches
wide, form part OF collection OF
thirty seven portraits. landscapes
and paitings, all by leading Belgian
artists, now on exhibition.
When the Belgian Relief Com
mission first distributed their one
hundred pound bags Of -four
throughout the famine stricken land
of Belgium. the folks just emptied
them and with the contents made
the staff of life. With the emp
ties" the housewives made clothing
for themselves, their husbands at
the front, and their children.
For many dark months there was
so much suffering and tragedy, that
life simply became process of EN-
plying the God given sacks OF -four
and then turning the sack into
clothes. Heads were too low and
backs too heavy. to ask where these
sacks came from, until one day
something filled. something sur
charged itself through the veins OF
every inhabltant Of Belgium. Those
fiour sacks came from the Belgian
Relief Commission maintained by
the Americans in Belgium. Were
the people grateful for them? Were
they? Why. that surcharged wave
Of gratitude is America had to ex-
press itself. But how? They had
nothing. that is nothing material. |
But in spirit. in poetry. in bravery
in art-art, no country on earth is
poor that has art and artists-and
Belgium had a plenty.
Now, in addition to having in

must have canvas. Aud there was
none to be had.

The weather of the last two
weeks has been just one surprise
after another. 1t has proved con
clusively that Kansas can furnish
almost anything in the weather ca
talogue. One half of the week is
balmy as California and little moths
are looking around for all wool sum
mer quarters when out pops cloud
and up comes wind and a winter
scene is the next setting. No less
sudden is the jump back to spring
time.
Thursday was warm and bright
until about . 80 when the tempera-
ture began to fall and the wind to
blow BY night II had begun TO
rain ana this morning there was a
covering of snow on the ground.
The same thing happened about this
time last week but lasted somewhat
longer Today the sun was shining
and steadily rising temperature

Arliss will lay his great drama
Jacques Duval' on the shelf until a
more opportune time. The present
American theater patrons are more in

comedies than tn worry over the deep

Jacques Duval."
Along with tie placing of Jacques
Duva1" on the shelf comes the news
that Leo Ditrichstein. in the New
York supreme court. has filed suit
against Mr.. Arliss and his manager.
George Tyler. asking damages for the
production, which has destroyed its
value to Mr.. Ditrichstein. Jacques
DuvaI" was adapted by George Kauf-
man, formerly dramatic writer for the

Hans Miller's Der Schoper."
Mr.. Arliss now announces he will
