proved the appearance of this quarter

reveal the artistic ingenuity Of Mr..
Barrymore.
1t will be interesting to know that
one of the handsomest architectural
groups in the country, the municipal
buildings at Springfield Mass, have
keen made the subject of an etching
by Louis Orr, an American artist, who
has lived and worked in Paris for many
years. The commission was granted
by the Springfield Chamber Of Com
rerce and fifty plates have been
printed, five of them to remain the
property of the Chamber of Commerce,
the rest going to private list Of sub
scribers. One of the prints was re-
qrested for display at the Spring
Salon.
In the art work of Joseph Stella,
seen at the Weyhe gallery, there is
note of mixed influence. Some early
character and portrait studies in
monotype are in the conventional man
ner, though imbued with yigor and
personality. On the other hand, there
are modernist conceptions of still life
and landscape subjects. The artist
treads lightly and with some delicacy
in this atmosphere, however, Civ
ing play to strong sense for
decoration and pleasing color combi-
nations, notably true in his sketches
Of flowers. But there is deeper
feeling of sincerity in the mono
types Of the man with a flute, the
mother and child study and the boy
with a violin Two small drawings of
aeroplanes in fight and a group Of
portrait etchings and small figure
studies are frank conceptions.
