\ Wind That Blew Down Whole Forests

IN the closing days of the last con-

submitted an amendment to the def
cheney bill proposing to appropriate
100000 for emergency expenditures
incident to the disposal of wind-thrown
timber on the Olympic National forest
and the repair and construction of
roads, fire lines, trails, telephone lines,
etc. This is an aftermath of the cy-

PAVING in Dresden China.

Little pieces of red-brown china
bearing the usual Dresden mark are
being passed from hand to hand in
Saxony. 1t is not that people are bar
tering their cups and saucers or are
getting rid of the contents CT their
china cupboards, nor are they making
each other presents of the delicate
porcelain for which the mark of Ores
den has been noted.
A new coinage in porcelain has been
put into circulation to suprsede small
paper money, and one of its valuable
assets is the fact that it can be
washed, so no one need complain Of
dirty money. The little red-brown
discs have met with a hearty welcome.
and the factory of Meissen has never
sent out anything more popular than
these little pieces of china that are
too small for a plate, too shallow to
hold water and not adorned with any
thing but the most simple devices.

FRA ANGELICA DA FIESoLE.
Still another Christ on the Cross
stands out in the art world-that
canvas by Fra Angelica da Flesole,
a circular picture, which hangs in
the Academy at Florence.
His Christ on the Cross is consid-
cred by art connoisseurs as one of his
best. 1t contains three figures, the
Christ on the Cross, the Virgin and
the Magdalen. Christ, wearing the
crown of thorns, hangs on the cross,
His head surrounded by a curious
fan-shaped golden halo with three
red stripes. The face shows sadness
and is well drawn. The picture is
rich in color, the background being
blue sky of the most vivid shade.
The blood on the hands, side and feet
which trickles down in three straight
streams is a brilliant red, forming
strong contrast to the sky.
MURILLO.
Ecce Homo behold the MANI, by
Murillo, is regarded by many as the

makeup of the picture is sublime.

OLD BELIEFS ABOUT EASTER
Deep-Rooted Ideas That Have Been

There is another old superstition
about eggs, and that is to rub over
the face an egg that has been colored
for Easter to have nice complexion.
To cry on Easter is sign you
will cry the following Sunday, too.
1t is bad luck to keep Easter eggs.
They should be destroyed.
If a rabbit runs across your path

sign.

Famous Paintings
of Our Savior S Z
Agony and ~
Death,szaaEaz

1t seems fitting that at Easter time
ones thoughts should turn to the art
galleries which contain the famous
paintings portraying the crucifixion
and resurrection Of our Savior. For
generations most Of them have hung
upon the walls Of museums of Eu-
rope and have been an inspiration
not only to lovers of art, but to all
Christians as well who have studied
and admired the conception of the
artist and the manner in which that
conception has been portrayed on the
canvas.
RUBENS.
One of the worlds most noted
paintings showing Christ on the Cross
is by Peter Paul Rubens. 1t has but
the one figure-the dying Christ,
hanging on the cross. The back
ground is dark, the sky being almost
black, which brings out more fully the
real beauty and richness of the work.
The head of Christ has fallen against
the right arm and peaceful ex-
preston is on the face, showing that
the agony has passed. The body
has sagged and the muscles of the
arms are prominent. Blood trickles
d. from the nail holes in the hands end
feet, while that from the wound in the
side has dripped on the loin cloth,
which is draped In graceful fashion.
The figure Is well drawn, being q
perfectly natural form of tall slen-
der man of the age of Christ at the
time of His crucifixion.
Rubens painted many pictures of
the Christ, but this one is by far the
most striking and beautiful. He was
the chief master of the Flemish school
of painting, and was one of the most
versatile artists of all times. Be
ginning the study of art early In
life he worked under many famous
painters, particularly in Venice and
Rome. He was a man of scholarly
attachments, speaking six languages,
and was intimately acquainted with
nearly every ruler in Europe, the ma
jority of whom gave him commits
sions for pictures. He died at Ant
werp in 1910.
DURER.
Another great canvas showing
Christ on the Cross is the work of
IAlbrecht Durer, and like the one of
iRubens shows only the figure of the
Savior. The background is an almost
inky cloud with the fading sunset
sky near one foot of the cross, and
a few trees standing in the fore
ground. The figure is stretched on
the cross and there is no wound I'm
the side, the only blood showing be-
ing a few drops on the right hand.
The body has sagged slightly and
the loin cloth fiutters in the wind
The crown Of thorns is pressed down
ION the head, the sweet sad face is up-
raised, the eyes are turned toward
heaven in the agony, and the mouth
slightly opened as if He were I'm the
act of speaking. The real beauty of
the canvas is In the face of Christ.
and 1t has never been excelled in its
sweet, spirituelle portrayal. The
painting hangs in the National gal
lery at Dresden.
Durer was born at Nuremberg in
1471. At an early age he displayed
great talent in drawing and in 1856
his father apprenticed him to the
great painter Wohlgemuth, with
whom he studied several years. Lat.
Ter he studied in Venice and travelled
TO all the art centers, where he made
friends with the most noted men OF
bis time, being particularly friendly
with Martin Luther. His coiorine

Easter is the festival that common.
crates the triumph of life over death,
the birth of new hopes. Its traditions
and its place upon the calendar of

new aspirations and new forces in

Never before has this festival of
life and of hope had so dramatic and
so significant a setting as it has at

hung over it. 1t has dissipated the
fiery cloud that had menaced its life.
