This exhibition. for which over 500

Pennsylvania museum, Philadelphia,

The Metropolitan Museum of Art
has recently received a special do

Probably the best evidence of de-

is In the increased artistic value Of
hand-wrought and manufactured ar

NAMES FOR GIRLS
And What They Mean

TT Is almost imperative that a girl
i named Olive should have a peace

incongruous than a, girl of this name
who was slangy. chewed gum and
specialized in outdoor sports? Peace
Is naturally the sentiment for Olive.
and the historical olive branch first
made famous by the mythical Athena
or Minerva, is the most fitting en-
blem possible for a girl Of this name.
This name Is very unusual in that
it is almost impossible to abbreviate
it into a nickname. and there seems
to be only two forms Of the name
which are generally used in all coun-
tries. These two are Olive and Olivia.
Ollie might be called an abbreviation
Of Olive. but the sound Is SO close to
the original and the full Olive is so
much the prettier of the two that
Ollie is rarely used.
There have been several famous
Olives and O1ivias, most OF. them. odd

characters in plays or books or In

the Arts Club. e01s street. a
collection OF paintings. chiefly
water colors. by William H.
Holmes. director of the National Gal
lery of Art and president of the So

Washington Water Color Club.
1t is not every artist whose works

see this collection of Mr.. Holmes
paintings without being profoundly
Impressed by the exceptional quality
of his talent and the high plane Of
lists few are his peer. He has an
amazing technique. Not only does he
fully command his medium, but he
bends it to his will, employing it in
not one but several manners as may
suit his fancy or is best adapted in his
judgment to the Interpretation Of the
subject in hand.
There is a marked kinship between
Mr.. Holmes water colors and those
of the traditional English school. His
compositions often times have an ele-
ment Of the classic. His pictorial
sense is highly developed. and yet oc-
casionAlly he satisfies not only him.

with infinite skill a detached frag-
