The Romance of a Painter

TITO all those who find that Art, with
| | capital A, is long, to those who write
- and paint and struggle desperately IN
dire poverty for the Golden Fleece of their
fancy, to those who always see victory dancing
ahead of them, yet ever just beyond their
grasp, to dreaming toilers everywhere will
come new life and new STRINGS of ambition
when they read the story Of Frank Schwartz
this years winner OF the Prix de Rome.
Fiction is out-fictioned here. Imagine the
typical young artist of the story-books, the
Prince Chap of the play, living in a garrett,
skulking from his landlady whose rent is long
past due, eking out slender existence with
hack sketches while in brighter moments he
paints passionately, gloriously the master.
piece Of his dreams. Imagine the gradual
decay of even these slender fortunes, until
the fateful day arrives when insistent bill
collectors no longer will be denied, when he
has not even the money WhereWlth to pur-
chase brushes, when the gutter yaWns for
him and his castles in Spain come crashing
down about his ears. And then imagine the
sudden knock at the door, the postman with
extended letter. the simple announcement
fluttering in his hands that the Grand Prix
has come to him and it is to be his JOY to
spend three solid years of study abroad with
out a care in the world. Imagine all this
and you will have not fairy-tales, but fact.
Frank Schwartz is a painter. According
to the New York Herald, there was none
poorer than he in all the city. For year
he lived in one room on the third floor of
house in Nineteenth street at rental Of
twelve dollars a month. Schwartz is a grad
uate of the Chicago Art Institute. He had
served in the war and came home from
France with broken health, but with flaming
ambition to do picture that should symbol
ize heroism and should win the Prix de Rome
Greenwich Village knew him. There he
earned few dollars with quick portraits of
tourists willing to pay. And in his garnet,
when he was in funds, he painted with genius
hot within him. AS his picture grew more
beautiful the canvas, he could not leave
it, even to earn money. His money dwindled
as Heroism grew, until, when he had packed
it and sent it to the Academy, he was verse
than destitute, debt had chained MN. On
a Monday morning he notified that he
must move within the week if he could not
find twelve dollars. Schwartz, say the re-
porters, was packing up his few belongings,
when the postman arrived with two letters
Not only had he won the orix de Rome, Civ
ing him three years of graduate study in Flu
but from the Tiffany Foundation he was to
three months before sailing at the studio of
the foundation of Oyster Bay.
Lucky Frank Schwartz! Lucky Prince
Chap! Lucky hero of the story-books! And
yet not so lucky, after ALL Pluck rather than
luck brought him victory when the days were
darkest, and so may it come to all who pur-
sue the Golden Fleece faithfully and with
single heart.

a Chance for Georgia Swan,bs

EORGIA farmers may have the oppor-
tunity Soon to receive valuable aid in
clearing swamp and stump lands, for
znthe government has decided to devote more
than twelve million pounds of picrlc ACID
s.one of the highest known explosives, TO this
purpose.
The acid was white elephant on the
Shands of the government when the armisti>e
.1swas signed, along with twenty-slx million
-spopnds of T. n T. The latter was dlstrlD-
suited to various governmental agencies ior
Jsuse in railroad construction in Alaska, puollc
roads in the national parks ana VARIOUS US ptoJ
ects on Indian reservations. Thus far. say
officials of the bureau of mines; not single
accident has marked the use OF the explosive
in its peace Work.
What to do with the vast quantities or
picric acid was a puzzling problem Of offl-
wucials, until the bureau of mines Instituted
@@series of experiments that disclosed many
esways in which the acid might be USED on
farms, such as in blasting out stumps and
=, rocks and breaking up the LANDS. IL was
'stherefore decided to distribute the acid Tree
to farmers through the department OF agri-
culture The only cost to the farmer, accord
Ing to present plans, will be freight charges
and a charge of six cents pound for placing
the powder in the necessary cartridges.
65 On the sentimental side, there is pleasant
Thought in this conversion of war materials
ITO the constructive work of peace. AS
farmers beat their swords into ploW-shea.s'
$50 it is fitting for their government to turn
Aideadly stuff of destruction as picr1c ACID
and T. N T. to improving the farming lands
..bf the country.
!, It would seem that Georgia, with many
aacres of unimproved lands, should come IN
for a fair share of the explosive. SO many
projects have been successfully carried out
afor the draining of Georgia swamp LANDS
and the smoothing out of stumpy bottoms,
: that the idea is no longer an experiment
ohereabouts, but assured success.
: recent report of the bureau OF census
nshowed that the agricultural lands OF the
United States have doubled in value in the
slast ten years. The figures place the full
value at $67,795, 965,384, as compared to
-s34,8O1,125,697 in 1910, an increase OF $751;
"9943S9, or 94.8 per cent.
The fact that the value of the nation
agricultural plant has been climbing at the
vrate of about $3,300,000,U00 year IS a
cheering bit of news for husbandry, despite
the drop in the prices of farm products.
The average farm has risen in value during
the ten years from $5,471 in 1910 to $10,-
514 in 1920. These estimates, of course,
take in lands with buildings.
Keen observers are aware that Georgia
farm lands have been among the first to
show this decided improvement, but there IS
still plenty of room for progress, and encour-
agement should be given farmers to make it..

Exploring the Past

TIME manner in which world progress
has speedeo up ate" it's six years of
sloth because of the war, is nowhere
more noticeable than in The field Of arch
geological exploration. Already a number
of collegiate expeditions have set forth for
remote corners of the earth on various mis-
sons of research, and the months to come
will witness even more attention to the fas
cinating business of digging up the history
of the past.
One of the most important of these is
that which has taken Charles S. Fisher, OF
the University of Pennsylvania Museum, to
Palestine, where he will undertake to
cavate the city of Besan, the old Beth-shan
of the bible, and one of the most celebrated
of all buried cities.
Beisan, storm center of ancient wars for
more than five thousand years, is not only
important in It's relation to Biblical history,
but according to that grea. scholar, George
Adam Smith, it holds the keys to the entire
history Of ancient civilization.
1t was in the shadow of the" walls of Bel
san that the hosts of Sargon tho Elder
fought in their first invasion of Palestine.
It was the plains around Besan that furn-
ished the battlefielus for troops of Ham
murabi, of Sennacherb, of NebuChadnezZar,
of Rameses and Necho, and of such great
Hebrew captains as David, Jeroboam, Jehu,
and Joshua. 1t was here that King Saul
his army vanquished by the Philitsines
fell upon his sT ord, so that Saul died and
his three sons and his armor-beare-, and all
his men that same day together" And SO
the plains of Beisan continued to flow with
blood through all the ages, for Alexander
the Great, Pompey and Napoleon met their
foes there, and even late as the world
there was fighting roundabout the ruins of
Beisans stark citadel.
The most casual reader of history must
thrill to the memory OF such deeds of valor.
The archeologist, though he may also ap-
preciate the romantic flavor of his task, will
seek for less glitterng, but more valuable
facts. Professor Fisher may unearth at
Beisan pottery, ornaments, vessels, bronze
tablets and othe" relics that will shed light
on episodes Of history now hidden to man
kind. What strange peoples first settled in
this strategi~ valley? Who were the Egyptian
and Babylonian kings that built around
Beisan the foundations of great empires?
The history of Beisan under jewish, Greek,
Roman and Arab control is ext -mely vague,
owing 20 the limited records in the posses
sion of students of archaeology; it is in the
province of such expedition as Professor
Fishers to establish much which ic now
sheer guess-Work.
The greater rart of Beisan today lies be-
meath the plain. The process of excavation
may uncover even the headless body of Saul
and that of his armorer. 1t may disclose
city buried upon city, as Schliemann's
petition unearthed seven separate and dis
tinct cities IF Troy, and thus lay bare the
entire history f the Near East the worlds
first center of culture, from the earliest maxi
ers of pottery to the Arabs, successors to the
Crusaders, who were Beisan's last con-
querors.

merely matter of custom? A South Sea
Island belle considers herself completely
gowned in few strings of shells An Indian
woman expose every other part of her
person with perfect propriety provided that
her face is yelled.
And no one can deny that we are becom-
ing so acclimatized to the abbreviated petit
coat that it is fast becoming as decent as the
old-fashioned trailing street sweeper and
microbe catcher. a womans ankles were
only interesting when it was improper for
her to show them Now that legs are just as
frankly in evidence arms nobody gives a
second glance.
Another thing that horrifies us elders is
the frankness of conversation between the
boys and girls of today. They have no re-
serves No delicacy, it seems to U.S. Young
men and women discuss on subjects sacred
to husbands, and wives and midwives, sub
jects that not even a girls own mother could
have brought herself to whisper to her. 1t
makes our hair stand on end to hear blue
eyed little debutante calmly announce the
number of children she intends having, or "a
manly youth aver that when he pops the
question to girl that he will file his health
certificate along with his proposal.
Yet, in all honesty, are not the young
blazing a straight trail to travel with this
frankness, instead of laundering into sloughs
in the dark as we did with our reticence,
which made us clamp the seal Of silence down
nored the things it was of most Importance to
us to know. The boys and girls of today face
them, crudely and brutally perhaps but they
at least know where they stand
Furthermore, there is no doubt that be-
cause she is so wise, so disilluslon1ngly wise
it seems to us, the modern young girl is a
million times better able to protect herself
than her mother was. 1gnrance never yet was
innocence 1t is the undoing of innocence.
We mourn that the young girls of today
have NO ideals. They have not ours, but they
have their own code, and it includes who VIII
suffer and be strong, and weep and forgive
the husbands who are tyranical and cruel and
stingy But there will be more helpful wives,
who are real partners and comrades to the
men they marry, and there will be FEWER
winners and naggers.
For the modern young couple marry WITH
out illusions, and with pretty shreWd idea
Of the bargain they are getting. Hence they
are less liable to make mistakes than their
parents were.
Whether the girl of today is an improve
ment on her grandmother or not, let those
say who can decide between the relative mer-
it's of hoopskirts and knee-length skirts, and
can tell whether they prefer a girl who fa1nts
at the sight of drop Of blood, or one
who can assist a surgeon in major opera

war, without the culver of an eyelash.
At any rate, the new girl is with us to stay.

STRENUO US effort is being made in
England to shoe the chickens, speak
Ing in the Vernacular, hack into th

home coop from which they have escaped.
Which is to say that at the recent meeting
Of the National Federation of Brotherhoods
at Bristol the modern young girl
cused of going it bit thick, don't you know.
Furthermore, it was determined that the
only way to save her was to lead her back
along the paths of the Victorian period and
show her where she must again mount the
pedestal where men look up to her, and not
continually climb down and mix with the
very men whose habits she deplores if she is
a good woman" as the resolutions put it.
And it was resolved to carry on extensive
propaganda to this end. 1t can't be done,
bretheren and sisters. You can no more
change the modern flapper into the "prunes
and prisms" maiden of her mothers and
grandmother's time than you could get her
into her mothers her grandm others eigh-
teen-inch corset. The girl of today has grown
a natural waist line, spiritually and mentally
as we'll as physically, and she couldn't lace
her body, nor her ideals, down into the Vic
tOrian hour glass pattern If she wanted to.
And nothing is further from her desires
There is nothing in the picture that mother
draws of the life Of nice young girl in
her day that fires the fancy of daughter. "a
young girl in my day desired no greater hap
piness than just to stay at home with her
dear parents, and help her mother with the
housekeeping" says mother. Gee, but you
must have been bunch of dead Ones,' COM
ments daughter.
81 never went anywhere alone with man."
says mother, 81 was always properly chape-
roned, even when man called in the evening
at my home"
'Say, mother" asks daughter, couldn't
your mother trust you out of her sight?''
"No man ever kissed me except your father,
and he never kissed me until after we were
engaged says mother. What you missed,
poor dear!' signs daughter.
every woman was placed on a pedestal
Them says mother. "Can the pedestal
stuff says daughter. There's time enough
to grace a monument when you are in the
graveyard. Besides, perhaps the reason that
women in the past didn't keep up with the
men was because they let the men shUnt
them out of the way on that pedestal base"
And there you are! Two generations look
ing at life from different angles, as youth and
age have always done. We of the older gen.
GRAFTON are terribly shocked at the youth
of today, and perfectly certain that their
manners, and morals, and modes of dress are
bound to send them to the devil.
can recall that our own parents were just
as shocked at our manners and morals, and
mode of dress, and made the same propheses
concerning our ultimate fate. And our ia
theirs and mothers said the same things about
the decadent youth of their times.
After ALL what is there really so much
wrong with the modern girl? Look at the
way she dresses. You see skirts to the knee.
No corsets. Waist no more than the pro-
