My Dear Mr.. Editor:
Believing that every editor in the
state Is anxious to see the prOhibi-
ton law properly enforced as well as
all other laws, I am writing to call
your attention to a condition which
exists in your part Of the state. This
office is constantly receiving anony-
nous letters from every county re-
porting that certain persons are vio-
lating certain phases of the prohi-
bition law. These anonymous let
tiers are generally signed IA Friend.
AN Agonized Mother, and any
other title which the writer evidently
thinks will cause immediate atten-
ton to be given to the complaint:
Operating with the limited force
which has been allotted to our state.
it is simply impossible for me to give
this class Of letters any consideration

With the vast amount of work which
this office has to do. I have been
compelled to take the position that
no action will be taken on any let

OF course. the writer's name will be
kept strictly confidential and NO one

that anyone who had sufficient in

fielders and infielders had their first

varsity veterans of tho 1920 season
lent n touch OF color to the cage with
their lottered sweaters. and many
promising mem bers of the late fresh

Coach Clark limited the squad to a
rather mild workout, which consisted
in throwing and fielding practice. At
tho close he sent them for n few laps
around the outdoor board track which
has been cleared for the use of tho

the Misses Katherine and Riba Owen.
Among the feminine sitters Miss
Calvert seems to have had the best
fortune; her seated portrait in black
with a red Spanish shawl flung upon
the chair backs seems to have reached
the top of Mr.. Fuchs's achievement. II
is suave, certain and vivacious. Mr..
Robert Il. Lincolns portrait, which
were he English, might land in the
National Gallery, is here destined for
a. golf clubhouse, the Ekwanok in
New England. Mr.. Lincoln being the
president OF the club. NJ. CASTOR Lie
bert, being a Frenchman, has had the
compliment paid to his discernment of
being painted mpressionistically. His
portrait is the most sympathetic in
the mems group.
The portrait of Mrs. Claire Sheri-
dan, which was originally intended to
be shown with this collection. was alb
stracted from it to be sent to the cur
rent exhibition of the National Acad-
emy. In it Mr.. Fuchs has typified
the lady of the diary, the publishing
OF which has proved so entertaining to
New Workers, and shows us lady
who observes, who thinks for herself
and is not afraid to tell others what
she thinks. The independence that
came into London fashion with the
advent of Mrs. Asquith can be read
in the decision of the mouth and the
calm unabashedness of the eyes.
Mr. Kobayashi appears again among
the sculpture and there is also a por-
trait of Mr. Pierre Cartier Most OF
the bronzes. however, are decorative.
and of drawing room size. One Of the
most pleasing is the "The Lesson" in
which mother and child, agreeably
composed. are looking at a book. Mr..

EISS CHRISTINE HERTER'S
/ paintings are shown in the
i Kingore Galleries with


commendation from Mr.. Jay Ham
bidge. He says OF them:
Apart from the. record of this
artists rare personality and technical
ability these paintings are remarkably
interesting for another reason. They
illustrate the conscious use of princi-
pies of symmetry or proportion in
their compositions. The modern art
world is just awakening to the fact
that successful composition depends
TO large extent upon knowledge of
design.
Miss Herter is one of the first
among the artists of our time to give
much time and thought to the prob
lens of area arrangement in pictorial
composition. The results Of her
studies in this interesting but seldom
explored field are embodied in these
paintings"
Mr.. Hambidge's theories In regard to
design have received so much space I'm
the public press that an artist who fol-
lows his advice is sure TO obtain a
certain amount OF scrutiny from students
who desire to see how II applies. In
Miss Herter's case there will be some
doubt as to where, how and which. In
most &C her work. so far from laying any
stress upon design she seems 10 shirk 1t.
The average inconspicuous artists OF the
day compose as we'll as she does. II Is
possible. though, that the portrait of the
members Of the Knelsel Quartette was
painted before Miss Herter became
familiar with the "whirling squares"
and the portrait OF her sister. Miss Mary
Dows Herter. was achieved afterward.
