Two Memorial MuraIs
BY Sargent at Harvard

Two mural paintings, by John Singer
Sargent, were unveiled recently in a
quiet manner with no ceremony, on
either side of the entrance to the
Memorial Room of the Widener Library
at Harvard University. The murals are
intended as a lasting memorial to the
Harvard men who fought and died In
the world war. Mr.. Sargent worked at
intervals for several years past on these
paintings.
Tho decorations consist OF two tblong
panels. arched at the top. and are in
plain view from either the top or the
bottom OF the main stairway. They
are uniform, In shape and design, with
three windows that flank the stairway.
The light. coming freely from both
sides. gives the visitor ample illuinina-
ton to study the figures with care from
the balcony, which is on a level with
the paintings. In Mr.. Sargent's other
Boston murals, the lighting and posi-
ton are such that careful study is not
convenient.
The central figure OF the panel at the
left Is a wounded soldier, Jcar,ng In
his arms the figures of Death and Vic
tory. Death Is represented by a droop-
ing figure enveloped in a black cape and
hood. While Victory is a female form
bearing branches of palm leaves and
held aloft by huge gray wings On the
ground beneath the feet of the three
are the bodies of fallen soldiers. In
the topnDoSt section OF the panel, Mr.
Sargent has represented two qrchangels
with trumpets proclaiming victory while
on scrolls flying from the trumpet heads
are Inscribed the words Death and
Victory"
The panel at the right Is technicalIy

represented a life-like column of march.

Architectural EtchingS
BY William Walcot

William Walcot. whose etchinCs are
| to be placed on view tomorrow in the
Knoedler Galleries, IS widely known in
Europe as an etcher and painter of
architectural subjects. He Is trained
architect and when he began painting II
was natural that he should choose the
subjects that he had long been familiar
with. and which he had the advantage Of
completely understanding. But archi-
lecture is not the only quality that has
made his work famous In England. Ills
vivid imagination, and decided individ-
uality have given him the power 20 re-

His architectural subjects, recording as
they do many world renowned palaces

he has felt the magic OF Imperial Rome
its pomp and splendor, and has inter-
woven with It's quality OF historical sig

through his ability to record the emo

his water colors and etchings he has
reconstructed ancient buildings long
gone to ruin. with a remarkable eye for
proportion and correctness OF detail and
vet he has added artistic Importance
His bitten line on the copper plateau in
dicates a remarkable senstiveness to
drnftsmanship, but he also has ar
unusual feeling for mass, depth and
vigor. He has plctorially revivlfed the
ancient aspect Of the Eternal City and

The New York herald., 1922-11-12

Sir Joshua Reynolds said that art
lists should not do these things-in
fact, that they should keep mum
but perhaps the antique rules do not
apply to expressionists. At all events,
this is what Herr Mollenhauer says:
"Art is the realized expression OF
the creative will. The stronger the
emotion of life In the artist the
stronger the expression In his works.
The problem for the observer is to
understand, as far as his artistic ap-
probation is able. the artists emo
tion, and to follow him back through
the intensive struggle OF his creative
endeavor. Art does not lie in cold
realities but rather IN the expression
of an idea.

artist, and no consideration OF his per-

idea is OK first Importance, and while
working, the realization OF his idea
becomes richer and more mature. The
artist who Is only concerned with

work than his object
''In nature everything is perfect and
beautiful. but the total is not always

Is vital. The essentials are the most
interesting parts TO seek and to de-

these are expressed In their simplest

PHONE INVENTION
MEASURES CONEABS
Conversation Timing Device
Has. Been Used Exclusively in
Everett For Months.

EVERETT, Wash, Sept. 22.-Tele-
phones in Everett already equipped
with device which measures CONVEX
sation, are to be made into wireless
receiving stations through the use Of
an attachment supplied by the Puget
Sound Telephone Co., an independent
corporation which serves this city.
To hear concerts, news bulletins
and other features thrown onto the
air by broadcasting stations of Seat
tie. 80 miles from here, Everett radio
fans, who also are telephone sub
scribers, will simply hook their radio
receiving sets onto the attachment.
which is known as the radio adapter,
and which will fit into the telephone
bell box. Expensive aerials and wir-
ing will not be needed.
In addition to supplying the adapt
err the telephone company, working
with the Seattle Radio Association,
will mail to It's radio subscribers
weekly programs OF the broadcasting
stations and will collect SIS a year
from each fan to defray the cost. The
Seattle association hopes to have tele-
phones in all other cities within a
radius of 100 miles, equipped with
the adapter.
The Conversations measuring device.
which it is said is not used any
where else in the world, has been OPP
Grated here for eight months and en-
ables the company to charge for the
telephone service according to the
length OF the conversations.
When many residents found that
the device, called the te1echromome-
ter increased their monthly bills, they
protested to the State Department of
Public Works, which is to hold
hearing to decide whether the affair
must be abandoned. In the meantime
$50 Everett residents have signed ap-
plications for new telephones to be
installed If the machine is given up.
Friends of the telechromometer say
that some Of the opposition was
caused by the fact that it made lis
tening- in" on party lines cost just so
much for every minute the telephone
receiver is off the hook.
