Art and Photographs.
From the London Times.

\ headmaster said the other day
that photographs of pictures are of
/ little use in cultivating the apprecia-
tive faculty" and he expressed the
wish that the board of education
would lend two or three original
works for short periods to secondary
schools. We are not concerned now
with the question whether the board
has them to lend; we wish to express
our agreement with the headmaster
about photographs. For nothing can
teach the appreciation OF works OF art
except works of art themselves; and
photographs are not works of art.

may also be added by reproductive
process, but no mechanical process
can produce a work of art or the ef-
feet Of one, simply because its prodaas

art BY means of photographs they
convey facts about pictures: but Those

is a value for art itself as passei

not seen the thing itself or anything
of its kind you cannot be reminded of
it: YOU are indeed, likely to acquire
a wholly wrong idea of it which may
prevent you from ever experiencing
it. Thus, we have known people who
confessed that they were nearly al
ways disappointed when they first
saw picture which they had long
known from a photograph: and the
reason of their disappointment Is
clear They had from the photograph

out the similarity OF the gown just
described with many of the smartest
evening frocks of today. More sur
prising, however, is the comparison
Of Elsie Ferguson's frs. costume OF
the year 1870 with the gown illustrated
at the right, which was worn by MISS
Dorothy Jardon at Keith's. MISS
Ferguson's period gown was OF pale
ping satin. covered with tracery
Of seed-pearl embroidery. and the
skirt was distinguished by huge
hustle at the back. We have seen
many panniers in our frocks OF re-
cent times, and occasionally we have
heard rumors Of revived bushes, but
until Miss Jardon's appearance they
had not been realised. However, her
gown Of flame-colored velvet was
draped at the rear In exactly the
same manner as Miss Ferguson's satin
creation. There was q marked dif-
ference in the skirts, though. for
the period gown had q voluminous
one which swept the floor and. ex-
tended into a train, while the other
model had q very narrow ankle
length skirt, with q double train at
tached below the hustle.
Miss Jardon wore a large picture
hat Of black trimmed in paradise
plumage with the gown and carried
q black staff jeweled with jet and
trimmed with long beaded tassels.
Two particularly attractive costumes
were worn by frankie Heath ana
Martha Mansfield, who are also ap-

many interesting comparisons be-
tween old fashions and now. Elsie
Ferguson's play, Tho Varying

laid in four different periods Of time,
and the quaint costumes which ap-
peared in each reflected the good
taste Of their charming designer,
Miss Ferguson herself.
AS girl Of sixteen, In the year
1886, she wore this dainty crinoltne
which Is sketched, and just before
the scene closed she tried on her
grandmother's wedding veil in prep
aration for her own marriage the
next day. Tilmy cream colored lace
was used for the veil, while the hood
was almost completely covered with
orange blossoms, a few Of which
were showered among the folds OF
lace which hung to the ground. The
crinoline was made in the simplest
fashion possible, as befitting such a
young girl, and the material was
white taffeta. A bertha collar hung
in point at the front and was fin
ished with embroidered scallops. as
was the hem of the skirt. Demure
little white ribbon bows were dotted
over the tight pointed basque and
over the wide expanse OF hoopskirt
to give the only touch Of trimming.

BY way of this group OF sketches
one finds himself in closer relations
with the man. McFee, than he has
been before. Natural, too, since in
the story, the invention, the man
hides behind the author. One meets
him here a dozen times, or more, each
time presenting a new mood. fresh
outlook, an intensifying of charac-
teristic attitude He turns out to be
a friend. not vague and impersonal
writer. Whether he is looking down
from a balcony on the streets of
Smyrna, or over in Malta is consider
ing thoughtfully the knightly ardors
of three men to befriend desolate
woman who. by the way. is totally
unmindful Of all Of them. or whether
he is reviewing a bundle of books, or
making philosophic reflections upon
art-one is impressed with the sub
stantial quality of the man, with the
fact that the souls of men and wom-
liam McFee. One enjoys the straight
road that his thinking takes. and the
short cut of his intuitive conclusions.
Humor, too, goes along with these OBJ
servations and reflections-an open
unsubtle humor coupled with an
amazing FRESHNESS Ol SpecCN. oHc

NEW MEXICO LETS
 HALF MILLION IN
 ROAD CONTRACTS

Federal aid projects totaling more than half million dollars were added to New Mexico's road program thru contracts which were let by the high way engineer of that state on March 22. Many contractors entered bids and the state, by reason of this fact secured very desirable contracts.
 The II contracts awarded amount to $487,575, this amount being some what under the estimated cost. With the 10 per cent added for engineer ing and contingent expenses, the total of New Mexico's federal aid project under contract is now $1,- 500,0O0.
 These projects have been financed by a million dollars in road bonds au- thorized in the September 1921 cleo ton. The total amount authorized to be used in the discretion of the state authorities amounted to $2,O0O,- 900.

Washington, May 1S.-Not even the changes wrought by the war have made the difference in Washington brought about by the coming of the automobile.
 Only a few years ago motor cars were a novelty; then came the time when dozen or more would be park ed on the east front of the Capitol when Congress was in session; then began the passing of the carriages and other horse drawn vehicles from the business and residence sections, and today cars are massed solidly around every public building, and parking space on every street is at a premium.

BRITISH LION ID
 PARTICIPATE IN
 SPEEDWAY GRIND

Indianapolis, Ind, May 1S.-(Spec- ial) .-The British colors will proceed the annual band parade before the start of the tenth annual 500-mile race on the Indianapolis motor speedway Tuesday, May 30. Although Louis Coatalen is expected to make an elev- ,enth hour entry of team of Sun- beams, from Wolverhampton, Eng, il was not a certainty that there would be an English competitor. Any doubt was dispelled recently with the receipt by T. E. Myers, secretary manager of the Indianapolis motor speedway, of a cable from London, entering Bent ley car.
 This will be the debut of the Bent ley in American racing. The entry is made by w. Douglas Hawkes., the engineer and designer, of the car, who may drive the racer in, the dash for $1OOOOO on Memorial day. Reports from England imply that Hawkes. will make Jules Goux and his pair of Bal lot entries hurry to defend the Euro pean honors in the international class ,ic.
 Goux, one of the craftiest pilots who ever came over to represent France, has two new Ballot mounts but has not announced his team mate. Last year in the French Grand ,Prix, Goux took one of the small two litre (122 cubic inch) Ballots and drove it into third place. The car did not have the speed of several it defeated but Goux had the skill to outgeneral his speedier competitors Goux was also the first foreigner to win an Indianapolis race, taking the 1913 event with a Peugeot. Goux has a warm spot in his heart for h. dianapolis, he was unsuccessful in his last attempt to win the 1920 race, but he did win a bride the same year and Madame Gox is coming to visit home folks while Monster Goux tries to add to the family exchequer.
 : In addition to, the French and Eng fish flags, the Italian colors are "ex- pected to vie with Old Glory in the parade before the start and to be hurled into the air by signal bombs. Only Belgium or Germany will be missing among all the countries which have ever had cars in the 5OO- mile classic.

DRAYMEN COOPERATE
 TO PROTECT THE ROADS

Sacramento, May 1S.-Co-operation of draymen between Marysville, Sac ramento, Stockton and Vallejo in the enactment of proper motor vehicle re- gulations for the protection of State highways was secured in a meeting held recently in Sacramento between members of the California Highway Commission and members of the Dray- mems Transportation Corporations.
 The draymen expressed the desire to see the motor transportation busi' ness brought under proper regulation and measures taken for the protection of highways and the apprehension of irresponsible truckmen who injure the business and the highway by gross overlooking and speeding.
