Perhaps he scorned them because they were traditional and had been used before; perhaps he wanted to show his power to create a snaky sensation without actually painting snakes.
 The brows of "The Angel of Re- belion" swirl into a massive scowl which is austere and earnest rather than surly or repulsive. Men Going to Church" are represented by curi- ous strutting bird. Man Following His Principles" is a mystical picture wherein a man seems to be dragged down by a heavy beam which hangs from his neck. Lilies sprout from the beam, but he cannot see them.

Weird Interpretations of Subjects
 Painted by SZukalski

Chicago. H., June 22.--Grotesoue- ness characterizes the drawings and sculpture of Stanislaw Szukalski, the Polish blacksmith's son who on May 31, married Miss Louise Walker, the Chicago society girl who was to have been Miss Mary Landon Bakers only attendant at a wedding which was postponed last spring. The bride is the daughter of a prominent Chicago physician, Dr. Samuel J. Walker and her marriage to MT. Szukalski took place quietly at her fathers apart ment on Lake Shore Drive.
 MT. Szukalski depicts conscience, for example. as a monster of writh- ing tentacles and myriad eyes. His Angel of Rebellion" is more attrac- tive; the angels features are not un- like those M a portrait he has made of himself, although the latter shows a meditative youth rather. than a spirit of revolt.
 Work Is Extreme In Style
 MT. Szukalski's technique, particu- the Japanese; his imaginative inten- sity seems medieval: Rodins nf1u- ence might be suspected in the dis torted anatomy of his sculpture; Aubrey Beardsley is suggested by the grotesque and sometimes satirical nature of his drawings. Tn the oc- casional lack of obvious relation be- tween form and title, and in the ap- parent spirit of revolt, his work has in common with the ex- treme modern schools.
 Weird and Grotesque.
 The conscience in his picture, Man and His Conscience" is at once like an octopus, a gnarled, branching tree, nightmare and a worm. It is like worm, however, only in form: it does not crawl, but is rampant in mid-air. Two of it's tentacles are crooked like human fingers, with glaring eyes bestudding their tips and and point accusingly at Man" Eyes are scattered plentiful ly over its entire visible body.
