and mothers who have practiced
this companionship through their
children's unfolding years seem al
most to hold them in the hollow of

whistler's portrait of his own
mother is one of the most remark
able paintings of modern times. it
is one of the very few instances
where an artist has been immortal
lied by his own mother on canvas.
The madonna-the young mother
with her child-is, and always has
been, one of the greatest sources of
inspiration for the artist, but the
mother of mature years has eluded
most of them.
Art galleries reveal the fact that
while wives, sweethearts. children
and fathers have frequently served
S models, the mother has rarely
done so.
The explanation is simple 1t IS
much easier to paint youth, love,
innocence or strength than il is 10

The beauty of a mature woman
lies not merely in her features, but
in the character her face registers,
an this quality is what eyades the
artist when he tries. to capture It
with oil or crayon.

He painted not only a portrait of
his own mother but one of the uni
versal ideal of motherhood as well,
one that We all feel.
We are proud of our. modern
mothers, with their trim fingers
and their smart costumes, who are

grandmother we knew as children

acknowledged her years with her

and her retiring ways. She did

This is the type Of mother Whist
Ter painted, and the memory of this
type need never die.
Because he handled his subject
so reverently and sincerely, we all
recognize his artistry. \
People who know nothing of the
technique of art love this picture
for its sentiment and pathos.

essay to be the spokesman for the
progressive element in national
politics
1t is the belief Of the Springfield
Republican (Ind.), that the election
of Beveridge next November makes
him a presidential possibility for
the first time in his career. Blocs in
the senate will not attract him; ne
will follow the straight and mar
row path of regularity, and tn ere
will be two presidential elections
during the senatorial term-that is
to say two chances for him to be
struck by the presidential light
ming"
The success of Beverage in the
opinion of the Washington Star,
tlnd.), means two things: First,
the return of an accomplished man
TO public life; second, the end of
Republican factionalism." The
Star expects Beveridge to be elect
ed assuming that Mr.. New, "a
thorough party man." will support
him. 1t holds that the suggestion
that the result is an administrator
defeat lis for campaign purposes"
as the presidential policy through
out the campaign was one "of hands
off" The Washington Post, Und.
Rep, holds a similar view, point
ing out that both candidates were
ship and declaring that the only
way an Indiana Republican could
indicate desire to repudiate the
administration in the contest was
TO stay away from the primary"
Further than that according to the
Indianapolis Star, lind. Rep),
Senator Beveridge is as loyal d
Republican and will be as loyal u
supporter of the administration as
Senator New has been" This com-
ment is considered exceedingly i'm
portant by Republican politicians
because the Star was one of Bev-
eridge's strongest supporters. 1t |

by implication, was made upon |

There was more than personali- |
ties at stake, in the opinion OF the !
Evansville, Ind, Journal, (Rep). :
which believes that fundamentally
the explanation of Mr. Beverages
victory lies in the feeling that con- !
gress has been a dawdler. To say
that Mr. Beveridge's victory is in |
any eloquent or decisive sense a re-
Duke or reputation of Warren G. |
Harding is to speak an untruth." |
Another reason for the result, the |
South Bend, Ind, Tribune, (Ind.
Rep, believes, was more a. lack |
Of proper organization than the de-
sire of the people of Indiana that
Senator New should no longer rep

congress. The people of Indiana

knowing him could not appreciate

Kid" lifted him clear up to the
heights of stardom. Now comes an
other baby star who bids fair to reach
the high places in the not far dis
tant future. Her name is Fay Nc

Ray Carroll company that filmed
When Love Comes" for the Film
Booking Offices of America, under the
auspices of which it will be shown
Thursday at the Washington theatre.
Fay is three years old and of eX-

ready an actress of high skill. In

scenes that tax her talents to the ut
most, but she comes through them all
with colors flying.
Il want to buy mama an automo-
bile like Baby Peggy did says Fay
to anybody who asks about her pro-
fessional ambitions.
But it is probable that Fay's earn
ings will not be used to carry out
this purpose, since they are being
placed in a trust fund to defray the
expenses of her education and the re-
quirements of a university training,
which have been planned for her by
her mother as soon as her age will
permit.

up in the social whirl has done some
thing similar
Your Parisienne, however, is not
bothered by such inhibitions. If she
decides she looks better without stock
ings, off they go; and if others wish
to follow, it is all right. The origin
of Partisan styles is by no means con-
fined to the social elite. They may
start with a stenographer or the wife
of a shopkeeper.
In only one part of American life
does one find the Partisan flair for
taking a chance for sending out a
new fashion to stand or fall before
the American public Even the films,
however, are but pioneers in the field
of originality in dress, and undoubted-
