Mr.. George Bellows, at the Moutross

thing Of the quality Of a snapshot-the
snapshot of a great artist.
In the water colors he goes for more
depth and produces enchanting pic
lures. Tine enchantment has nothing
emotional about it. 1t is the thing seen
that interests Mr.. Sargent, who is co.
iective or nothing. Only he sees it in
terms ofi isensuous beauty, tho beauty
of color ard form. There is "a picture
hero OF some lake i'll Tyroi, a trihng
little body OF water, ct the foot Of
dense woodland. The water CLEANS
somberly in an impressive stiffness.

his art a mirror he brings the poetry

The Simplon," his merely truthful
notation OF mountain and cloud forms
transcends, in sublime effect, she aim
OF Turneresque pageantry. There is
something almost uncanny about the
facility with which Mr.. Sargeant
ranges from the Alps to i drowsy
Spanish courtyard, from sculptured
wall at Granada to anchored boats at
Venice or group OF workmon at
Carrara. Nothing daunts him. He
takes any problem in his stride Eye

POOR OLD DOBBIN IS
HEADED FOR MUSEUM

NEW YORK, Sept. Gu. P0-
THE horse will be virtually only a
subject for the natural history muse
um in the United States within a dec
ade," F. w. Fem, secretary of the ma
tional motor truck committee, Nation
al Automobile Chamber of Commerce,
declared today,
This animal, which has served
mankind for ages, is disappearing so
rapidly as result of his displacement
by motor machinery that even now
he is curiosity in the larger cities.
'The value of the horse has depre-
ciated to such an extent that thou
sands of farmers are holding onto
them merely because they can't sell
them, and when those they own at
present lose their usefulness, they viii.
be replaced by automobiles and trac-
tors
"Of course, the racehorse will re-
main with us, but in numbers he is
negligible"
| Fem said the Forthcoming report
of the N. Y. board of health will show
there are approximately 1854 less
horses and 1884 fewer stables in New
York City today than in 1919.
"Other localities besides New York
report similar reductions in the horse
population" he said. Registered
stations in Wisconsin decreased from
2437 in 1918 to 1888 in 1920. Ohio
had 965, 900 horses in 1917 and only
| S62, 900 in 1919. One hundred and
sixty horses were recently sold in
Portland, Oregon, for chicken feed.
| There were approximately 25,000,-
| 900 horses in our country two years
ago. If these could have been dispos-
ed of, automobiles and motor trucks
substituted. the value of the wheat
that could have been raised on the
land then required to feed horses
would have been sufficientto pay our
national debt, including the Liberty
Bond issues to date"

Gmrick to Welcome
Local Griffith Clan
at "Wdy DOlDn East

There will be a Griffith Night"
at the Shubert Garrick tomorrow
night to bring together all the
Washington residents named Griffith
in honor of David -Wark Griffith,
the producer of Way Down East"
The movement was started by
Clark G. Griffith, the baseball leader
of Washington, and has the hearty
cooperation of the business man
agement of Way Down East"
Among the 200 persons surnamed
Grffith who have agreed to, partici-
pate in the event are many people
of prominence.
The Griffith family was one of
the early Virginia settlers, but
David's branch moved into Ken
lucky two generations before he
was born and at a time when Ken
lucky wasn't what it is today. Jacob
Wark Griffith, the father of ID. W.,
was a general in the Confederate
army in the Civil War. and earned
The title of Roaring Jake Griffith -
because it was a trait of his when
leading his regiment into action to
raise his voice to a pitch heard
above the din of battle.
Gen. Griffith's wife was a member
Of the Oglesby family, of Georgia,
and behind her were the Shirley and
Carter families, all of good Georgia
stock. Eight children were born
to Gen. and Mrs, Griffith. They were: :
Matte, William Wark, Albert Lyn-
zen, Annie. Jacob Wark. jr., vir-
ginia, David Wark and Ruth.

Wilson's Liking for Stage
Is Shared By Mrs. Harding
Future Mistress of White House Prefers the
Note of Pathos to Jazz of Berlin.

The reputation Of the White
House, so far as the possession of a
sense of humor and enthusiasm for
things pertaining to the stage are
concerned, is not to be broken when
Woodrow Wilson. idol of actors,
leaves there.
Just as President Wilson enjoys
the pranks and jokes OF the vaude-
william at B. F. Keith's so will Mrs.
Warren G. Harding break away
from official affairs long enough
each week. or as often as a new
theatrical production puts in an ap-
pearance at the Capital, to see it.
They are both friends of the actors.
There is a slight difference, how
ever. in the tastes of the two in re-
gard to types Of, entertainment.
While President Wilson. revels in
the life and action and sparkle of
a well produced musical and dane
ing number, Mrs. Harding prefers
the touch of pathos, the song sung

beneath the old apple tree, if you
please.
President Wilson would prefer to
see a rolliCking act of girls and
young men in which the latest tunes
or, rather. it was no uncommon
sight to see the President applaud
enthusiastically when some pretty
actress sang one of Irving Berlin's
latest ragtime compositions.
Mrs. Harding, az evidenced by her
recent presence in several Broad
way TheaterS, prefers to sec a girl
like Marilynn Miller rise to hap
piness and fame and fortune from
the lowly' station of a dishw asher
in third-ra.e restaurant.
At the Hippodrome, she was most
interested in the energy and vigor
with which the scores of dancing
girls kept strictly to their work,
and persons within hearing distance
reported her as having said she
thought those little girls are as
brave as they can be-. My, how they
do work"
The new mistress of the White
House saw six of New York's most
popular plays during her recent
visit to the metropolis. In one or
two theaters she was not recognized
by the crowds. 1t was at these
performances that she most enjoyed
herself. The few who watched her
said she did not stint her applause

Golfers NeD Play
Is Really a Libel;
He's q HOrSe-LOUeT'

In The Hottentot" William
Collier is playing the role Of Sam
Harrington, who is terribly afraid
Of horses. This is a libel on the
star, for in reality, he is very fond
Of them and, until a few years ago,
owned several on his country place
at St. James, L I.
Mr.. Collier has always been very
fond of sports Until a year or two
ago he never missed an opportunity
to get into an amateur game Of
baseball. He preferred to pitch, but
was satisfied to take any position in
order to get into the game. Now,
however, golf claims most Of his
time away from the theater. No
matter where he is, or how hard he
is working, he endeavors to take
several afternoons of each week
and play a good stifr game Of golf.
Farming has also become a hobby
with Mr.. Collier and during the
summer months he devotes most of
his time to this pastime. His
friends say he grew some luscious
strawberries last summer, even
though they did cost him at the
rate of 81 each.
. 1T is great fun to be a gentle
man farmer" says Mr.. Collier, pro
