ly on Walls of Salon in Big

4 phenomenon, as startling ana
mysterious to the. officers and directors
of the Society Of Independent Artists
as were the recent ghostly manifesto
tions in Artigonish to the MacDonalds
and DR.. Walter Franklin Prince, was
revealed at the artists exhibition on
the top floor of the Waldorf.
The New. York spirit nailed q re-
jected drawing to wall, and above it
hammered four tacks in a card which
told that the picture was the work
of Mrs. Emma Mabel Field of Chicago,
and was called "Impressionistic Per-
sonality Portrait of Miss Edith Ben
nett"
"Spooks or no spooks," said A. s.
Baylinson, director and secretary
of the society, that picture has got
to come down. No one gave Mrs. Field
permission to have it exhibited, and
our walls aren't open for spirits" A
special delivery letter from the artist
to Mr.. Baylinson, arrived few days
later.
81 am starting for home now" her
letter says, land will be under way
before this letter is mailed. And beg
to inform you that have left the mat
ter entirely in the hands Of my guide
who has assured me that my poor
little picture will be exhibited there
whether you wish it or not."-New
