his chosen craft up to a higher plane
than it heretofore occupied so that it
marks a new step in human endeavor
and his work awakens enobling emo

merely works carefully and well, ac-

than common duty dictates, and de-

A Kansas artist of whom much may
be expected in the not very distant fu-
ture is J. Ward Lockwood, a. native of
Atchison.
Prior to the world war. Lockwood
was a student at the Pennsylvania
Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia.
He served turnout the war in France
as a lieutenant of the A. E. f. and
participated in many of the hottest
fights oflthe western front. After get
ting his discharge, he came back to
Kansas and was art editor for the
Capper Publications for a year. Now
he is studying art in Paris. Few of
US were given an opportunity of see
ing much of Lockwood's work, but the
little that was seen indicated much
promise for a bright future.
David Overmyer of S1S Kansas ave-
nue. is putting in his spare time at
working on a large decorative panel
in oil which he will call IAN Oriental
Textile Market" Overmyer did a
great deal of preliminary sketching
and experimenting before he settled
down to the real business of painting
this picture and even after the work
tant changes in it. He is giving special
attention to the color scheme.
The work has now progressed far
enough to give a good idea of how the
completed panel will look. The effects
of sunlight and shadow and the color
harmonies are among the most won
derful and beautiful that the writer
has ever seen, and he has been per-
mitted to view much good work in his
| time. If the artist succeeds in over
coming a certain stiffness in the COM
position of his work, it is safe to say

it's doors under the permanent direc-
torship of Maestro Toscanini.
Tour Cost Is Big.
In point of view of expenses and
artistry the Toscanini tour is the most
stupendous concert project ever at
tempted in America, or in the world
for that matter. involving an operat-
ing expense for the fifty concerts
given here alone approaching a third
of a million dollars.
The organization, rehearsal and
touring of the organization thru the
principal cities of Italy for three
months previous to their coming to
America, and the transportation of the
company to this side and return across
the Atlantic, all of which is borne or
made possible by the Italian govern
ment, the city of Milan and other
Italian art interests, almost approach
the magnitude of the American part
of the enterprise.

When the directors of the New
York Winter Garden several years
ago evolved the idea of presenting
an annual revue, they did not dream
that they would ever reach the mag
nitude to which they have grown.
The first Passing Show was, con-
sidered a most pretentious and elab-
crate production and the cast was q
host of notable artists of the stage.
Each year these .revues have grown
both in point of elaborateness and
magnificence and also in the wealth
of entertainment they offer.

rection of Messrs. Lee and j. ]. Shu-

of entertainment-a producing house

round. The Winter Garden was

New Orleans was eliminated because
of the desire of the Chamber to hold
the meeting in a place near Wash
ington. Lack of hotel accommoda-
tons and suitable meeting quarters
to comfortably seat the three or
four thousand business men who will
attend the meeting were the reasons
for not selecting Washington.

almost limitless activity and pros
perity. Farmers and mechanics
were as prosperous as merchants
and manufacturers. ME demand for
labor exceeded the supply. No one
who wanted to work lacked the OPP
portunity. The Old Year ends, and
the New Year win open, with many
people out of employment, with
stagnation everywhere as compared
with the activity Of twelve months
ago; but il is in the power Of the
American people to make the New
Year, before il closes, show pros
perity as wide and employment as
general as was the. condition twelve
months ago.
Inherently every condition justi-
flies optimism and activity. We have
had no epidemics Of disease to sweep
over the land, no drought to destroy
our crops, no floods to wash away
railroads and bridges, and no earth
quakes to shatter down our struc-
lures; we have simply been suffer
ing from the unwise action Of men
in financial leadership wholly in
competent for their task.
We have been paying the penalty
for some Of the wild extravaganza
and graft and kindred work Of the
last eight years, and more especially
of the four years Of war.
We are paying the penalty for the
nations cowardly surrender in 1916
to the railroad brotherhoods, which
inaugurated an era Of turmoil and
unrest in labor and created the i'm
preston in the minds Of millions of
people that they had right to bring
on a revolution and demand that all
Of their wishes be fulfilled, just as
the railroad men had accomplished
their aims by the nations cowardly
breakdown when the pistol Was held
at the head of Congress and the
Administration.
But we can put all these things
behind us. We have raised abundant
crops, our barnss are bursting with
riches of food and feed. The shelves

abundance. We only need courage

SIN! Let all Americans unite for
he upbuilding of the whole country,
or putting aside class hatred, for
he greatest efficiency in work and
he largest pay which the business
an stand, for suppressing graft and
onoring honesty, for that patriot
SIN which can find expression in
7orking for the business advance
lent of the country as wholesouled-
? as it worked for the saving of the
alton from barbarism.
The future is ours; the oppor-
