Strictly contemporary and ultra
modern composers are represented by
Forterre, a Frenchman and friend of
Debussy who has made his home and
practices his profession In Moscow for
the last fifteen years, and by Alcxci
Arhangelsky, a close friend of Balief
ever since tho Bat was founded.
Forterre has composed the music of

radical manner, which has been In
fuenced not only by Debussy, but at
first hand by Dcbussy's own master,
Moussorgsky. Arhangelsky, it is curious
to note, has been known in this country
until now chiefly by his religious music,
but several of the acts in the Chauve-
Souris repertory bear witness to q
lighter mood.
OF the non-Russan composers for
the Chauve-Souris perhaps the most
prominent arc Offenbach, whose "Lc

operetta in one act, and Lccocq, also

Music Important Feature of

TIE newest artistic heralds to prove

1t is fitting that Morris Gest has

OF the sea which are, even more

Some years ago there developed In
Japan tendency among some of the
artists to model their work upon West
ern ideas. Such results as have come
to our notice in international cxhibi-
tons and elsewhere have not sug-
gestcd that the move was we'll advised.
They have savored of neither tho East
nor the West, but of some disorganizcd
world between. At the Arlington
gallery there may be seen just now the
work Of a Japanese artist, who has
burned his bridges, coming completely
over to the West. Save for a decor
ative motive introduced into the back
ground of one Of his compositions there
is not trace of the East in the show.
The Orientalism of Mr. Kyohei 1nukai
is absolutely submerged.
He seems to have come to his task
with a clean slate, too, tackling West
ern problems with a puzzling aplomb.
Take, for example, the huge "Idyll,"
which asserts itself in such wise as
nearly to kill everything else on the
same wall. 1t is a nude of the an
proved Salon type, an academic ex-
crcisc. The marvel is. to use tho old
phrase, not that it is done as we'll a. is
the case, but that it should have been
done at all. Such essays arc only
worth while when the artist is an ac-
complshcd techncian, and Mr.. Inukai
is not that, as yet. His work with the
figure is altogether in this vein, how
ever, the vein Of the studio picture
maker. The best canvas he has to
show in this field, the Green Vase" is,
with all its merits of smooth drawing
and clever decorative ingenuity, a dis
tinctly hollow performance. The cx-
PLANTATION seems to lie at point where

casts off an historical tradition and
makes a new start. Not unnaturally
he begins with the things that can be
taught, adopts the methods that can be
got at in the schools-and paints
school pictures. All the time he has
needed more than anything else to ad-
dress himself to nature, to turn from
his technical lessons to observation.
How true this is one may see on
scrutinizing the several landscapes in

IN the open air practice an impress
sionism which ought ultimately to re-
pay him.
Another Japanese artist, Mr.. Yasuo
Kuniyoshi, is exhibiting at the Daniel
gallery. He has thrown in his lot with
the modernists. Unlike his compatriot
just cited, he has evidently declined
to follow the admonitions Of the
schools. His drawing is naivete itself.
There Is next to no construction about
his figures. In only ono Of his paint
ings, the "Wild Horses" which has an
inkling Of form and Of movement. does
he seem to concern himself with reals-
tic truth. There are traces Of humor
in his work. But they are advanced
in too halting an idiom to make them
selves felt
At tho Montross gallery Mr.. Walt
Kuhn invites similar reflections. He
, has, we gather, vague ntimations of
the charm that lies in color and form.
We are brought to share them with
him in a picture like the "Intermezzo,"
of which we feel certain something
could be made if only the painter would
give his mind to it. 1t is tho same with
several of his flower subjects. For the
rest, Mr.. Kuhn leaves US untouched
by any qualities Of beauty or struc-
ture. He seems moving about in
world unreaized, producing formlcss
gaucheries that lead nowhere.
Toward the close Of the month there
will be an exhibition at the gallery of

Men for Larceny

Peter Tuttle and Frank Ernest

by the grand jury at the April term
Of the supreme judicial court on a
charge of breaking, entering in night
time and larceny of IA hens at the
home of Frank B. Staples, were taken
to the States prison at Thomaston,
Tuesday. They were accompanied by
Parole officer Fish of the prison.
Both Tuttle and Brown have pre-
vious criminal records. While their
offense at the present time was the
same, the breaking, entering in night
time and larceny of few hens in which
they were accomplices, as Brown
pleaded guilty and saved the court
the expense of a trial. his sentence
was less than Tuttle's. The latter
pleaded not guilty and had a trial in
which he was adjudged guilty.
Browns sentence is not less than
one year nor more than two years
at hard labor in States prison and
Tuttle's is not less than IS months
nor more than three years at hard
labor in States prison.

Sorosis Has Last
Session of Season

The annual meeting and the last
one of the season of '21 and '22 of
Skowhegan Sorosis, was held Monday
evening in the parlors of the public
library with a large attendance. AS
has been the custom for many years
a supper is served at $50 O'Clock and
the business session follows.
The committee responsible for the
delicious supper served on Monday
evening, was composed Of Mrs. Mary
Mitchell Hurley. chairman. Mrs. Ger
trude Jewell. Mrs. Ellen Lowe, Mrs.
Blanch Whipple, and Mrs. Alice Dow.
The parlors were very attractively
decorated with both spring flowers
and many baskets of beautiful arti-
fetal flowers. The tables never were
prettier. The following delicious
menu was nicely served and much
enjoyed: Fruit cups, hot mashed po-
tato, cold boiled ham, crabmeat salad,
hot rolls, ripe tomato, lettuce, cucum-
bers, whipped cream cake with fresh
Strawberries and coffee.
After the supper had been partaken
of the president, Mrs. Jessie d. Plum

the secretary.~Mrs. Berdena F. Con-
ant, gave the report of the last meet
ing. The secretary. Mrs. Conant and
the treasurer, Miss Marie G.. Fletcher
gave their annual reports, which
were Of much interest and were the
| records of a happy and prosperous
club year. Miss Alice r. Parker, the
Red Cross school nurse, gave an in
teresting account of the work which
she did for several years in Nalpole,
Mass, when she was employed joint
ly by the Woman's club and the Met
ropolitan Life Insurance Co. The
| feasibility of Sorosis uniting with the
insurance company in employing a
nurse was discussed at some length.
1t was voted that the club should as
sist in the sale of the tickets for the
winters course of entertainments, to
be given here next winter by the
I Redpath Bureau, as last year and
| that each member should be respon-
| siblc for the sale of two tickets.
The following officers to serve the
| club for thcA incoming year were

Ethel Moore and Mrs. Vivian G..
| Woodbury.. With the exception of
the president. Mrs. Plummer, it was
a reelection and the only reason
| why Mrs. Plummer was not elected
| was because she was unable to accept
the office for another year. Miss
Fletcher in behalf of the club pre-
scnted to Mrs. Plummer, a beautiful
bouquet of flowers, expressing their
| appreciation of her excellent service
| as president the past year and the
| regret that she could not serve the
! coming year.
