Human DEVELOPMENT.

Humanity, in its acquisition of
knowledge, its hopes, its aspirations,
its ideals, is in state of steady de-
velopment. In art, it is the personal
expression of the artist, his individ-
uaiity-ShOwn not only in mere tricks
Of style, but in his state Of mind, his
attitude toward the world about him
which counts most in the end. And
that is why art in any form is not
Il matter only of mere copying of facts.
The line to be drawn is not always
easy to define, perhaps. But one may
best regard some extreme examples.
The demand for subject and realism
found strong expression in the vogue
enjoyed by the chrOmos years ago.
