VALUABLE COLLECTION

French Painter Has Many Gems Hid
den In Paris Studio.
At SO he smokes cigarettes while
mixing his paints and turning out some
of Frances most notable modern por-
traits, relates a Paris dispatch. This
is the record of Leon Bonnat, in whose
studio in the Rue Bassono last week
were revealed treasures which have
excited the cupidity Of art collectors Of
America as well as Europe. Feeling
that he might not live much longer,
NJ Bonnat has shown friends series
of sketches which he picked up in re-
liable markets In oil parts Of france,
Germany and Italy during the last fifty
years, representing some of the finest
works of old as we'll as fairly modern
artists. Rembrandt authentic Durers,
the fine tones Of Watteau and F'ragon-
ard. all are represented in NJ. Bonnat's
strongly locked cabinets, the artist
himself declaring that the value OF
his collection certainly is more than
100000 francs. Although bought at
the pre-war rates Of exchange, he fire.
quently obtained his treasures from
sources where the Ignorance of the
seller enabled him 20 pick up marvel
Gus bargains, which accounts for the
great value of his collections for his
earnings from his own art sales
scarcely would have permitted him to
spend a tenth Of this SUM.
But III. Bonnat is patriotic, like most
French artists, and is going to leave
the precious heritage to his own ma
ton. Already he has given an album
containing ninety Rembrandt sketches
to the Louvre and the remainder Of his
collection will be divided between the
Louvre and the Museum Of Bayonne,
with the provision that the collection
must never leave public ownership.

JOHN D, Jr., GIVES ADVICE:
Rockefeller Tells Members Of His Bible
Glass How to Pick a Wine. -"

Class How to Pick WKe. -.
It is risky fol! a man to marry wo-
man OF different nationality or of a
different religion. according to John D
Rockefeller, Jr. No. man, he said
should let his heart alone guide him
when he decides to choose a wife, but
he should also be guided by his head.
These sentiments were expressed Sun
day morning by Mr.. Rockefeller before
the Young Mems Bible Class Of the
Fifth Avenue Baptist church, at 4 West
Forty-sixth street, New York, of which
he Is honorary president.
The Sunday school lesson was on the
life of Samson, and Mr.. Rockefeller
blamed Samson's marriage with wo-
man Of the Philistines to his failure in
life.
I'VE might we'll pause here to discuss
the Importance to anyt man of the Sc
lection Of his wife," said Mr.. RockefeI-
ler. Regarding the failure of many men
to exercise enough care in the selection
OF their wives, he said: I'VE may well
assume that Is the reas son why the di-
vorce courts of the land are SO shame
fully full" -. y. :.
There are few things SO important
as the selection Of wife," continued
Mr.. Rockefeller. How many Of US have
seen the lives Of our friends wrecked
because they have not selected the
right woman.
1T Is pretty dangerous thing in Sc
lecting your wife to choose one from a
foreign nation, though there are cases
where 1t has not proved failure. 1t is
risky thing too, to yoke oneself for
life with a woman of another religion.
Once In while this goes all right, but
often it docs not.
1T seems to me that In the selection
Of a life partner the heart and head
should be used. am saying that any
man Is foolish who let's his heart run
away with his head In selecting a wife.
A man should sit down and prayerfully
consider how that woman and. he viii
agree.
WHO can but look with scorn upon
any choice of a wife for anything but
happiness and love? There is nothing
more disastrous than q marriage for
money or social position. It-.seems to
me the more points Of interest between
hIrsho nd md u-fC thu crror tboro y,iIl

WANT PROOF OF GOD
Chinese Not Willing to Accept or
Faith Alone.


What is your idea of God?
Do you believe in God?
Why?
Skeptical Chinese students at the
University of Chicago-more than
score in number-want these questions
answered
Several weeks ago they sent out a
Questionnaire asking the questions, to
one thousands Americans in every
walk of life from factory workers to
theologians. and including convicts.
Nearly five hundred replies have
been received.
=. But, according to Sing Sin WaHs,
the moving spirit, an. analysis shows
these answers to have confused the
Chinese, students more than ever re-
,garding the existence Of living Cod
and the reasons for belief in one.
convicts 1C0 Per Cent in Belief.
Wang says the most illuminating
answers came from Clergymen' and
university professors. While the ma
iority expressed belief in a super
natural and ,allpowerful being, they
were not unanimous, tone OF
atheism being apparent even in replies
from preachers.
On the other hand. convicts were
100 per cent. in their belief in God.
Business men. as a rule. paid little
attention to the questionable.
Journalists were not keen in reply
ing either, although a few offered ad-
vice.
A policeman naively urged the stu
dents mot to be deceived by hypocrit-
ical Christians.'
A few actors seemed inclined toward
atheism. Housewives were too busy
baking bread to reply while women
,teachers expressed a wide divergence
of opinions. Statesmen didn't ans

Wang says that, Of the two hundred
replies so. far analyzed, there are al

believers in America. ElEh: answers
to the first question. What is you'
idea of God?" we're roughly classified
| as, follows:. ,..,.
God is love, goodness, Justice.
God is force.
God is Nature.
God is author or creator Of al
things.
God is the primordial cause.
God is an illusion.
