RICH FOLK.
CROW At
THESIS
Some Want t-ikenesses and
Some Defects concealed.
Case of D. c. Woman, Y
BY JULIA MCCARTHY.

NEW YORK, June ZO.-
Art schools should insist on
courses in clairvoyance and
psycho-analysis> for students.
Later the full-fledged artist
will know, when painting por-
traits, just how a famous
man or a society leader thinks
he or she ought to look.
No artist could ever tell
what is in the minds of some
people. If a millionaire weak
ling yearns to be a strong
"he-man" We artist should be
able to depict him with ears
slightly a la cauliflower. The
plain spinster will not be Of
Tended If made to look as if
she destroyed at least one
good home.
Not Like Camera.
Art, as any of its followers will
tell you, is not competing with
the camera. IL you want a like
ness, good men and women, with
out the suspicion of a. lie on its
lips--to borrow a phrase from the
movie subtitles--let Junior" snap
you with his No. 8 camera and
you can gloat over the resultant
"stills" without the unhappy
thought that some artist may be
LAUGHING up the sleeve Of his
emock. ...
Law suits over portraits are
common occurrences. For exam
pie, Mr.. Rich Recently wishes a
painting of himself for his grand
children to hang over their
Georgian gas logs. So he looks
up a few artist fellows in the
phone book. And it is strange
how the very one he selects by
shutting his eyes and putting his
index finger down on the page
may turn out to be malicious
enough to make his hair look thin
just where it is sparse--having no
tact. whatever. Then after a few
sittings the treat for posterity is
completed. -
Likeness Easy Trick.
Immediately the lawsuit, most
amusing by.product- of art plus
nature. Is begun. The artist does
not see why his art should catch
camera~like likenesses and the Gus
toner does not see why, II he had
ordered a portrait, he can not have
q likeness. .-s.
In Paris court just decided that
portraits need not be exact replicas
OF subjects. As every artist knows
getting the likeness IL the easiest
trick Of all. Grasping the person
ality Of your sitter 10 the real
achievement and one that is moi
always appreciated by the subjects
as fully as might be supposed.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE
DEATH OF CHRIST
Pointed Out by Rev. Addison A.
Ewing at ST. Andrews
Church.

THE true understanding OF the
death OF Christ will not be 1eers or
lamentation or unthinkins applause"
Rev Addison A. Ewing said at St.
Andrews Church this noon. With
silent and reverent awe we should
watch Him die and realize that this
was not failure. but triumph. His
death won for US the possibility Of
being like Him"
DR.. Ewing described the groups who
misunderstood the meaning Of Christ's
death. thinking Him a failure. and
those who today are willing to accep;
the fruits Of His sacrifice without
obligation TO themselves.
He suggested that Holy Week
should not inspire feelings Of pity FOR
Christ. but sorrow for our own IN
worthiness. The understanding Of the
mystery he explained. should be just
the feeling Of a sympathetic heart
/ that tries 10 see Jesus point Of view
/ He said that when we realize that
/ Christ was man we get a human
glimpse OF the reason. for the sac
rifice for He voluntarily accepted IN
just punishment and sinless took on
! Himself the SIN OF the world. that He
might destroy injustice and sin.
The cross should not be a symbo
OF a propaganda or crusade" he said
1T should be a reality 10 us because
Il IS a reality IN us. Realities are
recognized by the difference they
make in our lives. a theory may b'
changed and there is no difference
Christ's lie was reality for death
could not stop IL. 1t showed US 1
new way of living"

tomorrow Rev. Edgar Jones Of 81

duct three hour services beginning
promptly at twelve in St. Andrew S
