Exhibit of Paintings

"Impressionism" is no longer symptom in modern art but fact"
 There is an "impressionism" litera- ture the inevitable corollary to be inferred from the existence of an "lmpressionism" cult, and one has but to visit the handsome exhibit of paintings from the Milch galleries. New York city. by American artists, presente by the Alabama Art league in the Little Art Gallery to gain this idea at even a casual glance.
 Vivid colors; heavy brush, often; light and shadows intensified; and the whole boldly done, is the impression that the observer receives from glimpse of the paintings on the walls of the Little Art Gallery.
 Here. nuances and shades of brown and golds and yellows; there vivid blues and more vivid blues; wonder. greens as brilliant as crimsons, and further, crimsons as daring as greens S,--marvelously combined-marvelou -Iy transferred to canvas, making an open sesame for color and more color and still more color.
 Far distant is the claim that I make to being an "art critic" I know absolutely nothing about art. I don't even know how to express my inn pressions in "art terms" I am pitt fully like the poet has said:
 If you are an artist
 And lady says to you,
 As though it were sensible re- mark:
 q don't know anything of art,
 But know just what l like;"
 You may answer:
 50 do monkeys In the park"
 And like the monkeys In the park ] merely know what like and like those beautiful bold strokes which carry gorgeous blues in their trail; like those orchid tints that are so marvelously done; 1 like Madonna" things, and l like Whistler" of whom Max Bcerbohm has said: Whistler regarded Whistler as his greatest work of art" but above and beyond all this, I like the artists back of the canvas with his brush and palette in hand sending forth to the world the art children of his brain to be criticized, talked about, com mented upon.
 The picture which everybody has been talking about at the art exhibit making fuss over"-is Summer

MORE TRUTH

E, JAMES J. MONTAGUE

CAN THIS BE ROMANCE? Tn youth we used to read romance Of love and blushes, tears and
 laughter, He read her answer in her glance And both were happy ever after" We took the authors word for that, He said their love would never
 falter; But as for us-we left them at The altar. Today tale does not begin Until true love has met a/deadlock, The lovers being tangled in The bankrupt, short-term bonds of
 wedlock. They both regret the foolish step That led them t' this complication; The final chapter brings their sep Aration. We often wonder if these twain We bade goodby beside the altar Are those we later meet again Both tugging at the hated haSter. If so, the author who declared Their love eternal and undying, And that they'd stay forever paired Was lying. If this is, or is not, the case, Alarming is the trend of fiction; And on it we're constrained to place

u. S. SUPREME COURT is.
SUES WRIT IN TELE
PHONE CASE.


and Telegraph Company, in
which the commission is seeking
to compel a material reduction in
rates, has taken a new position.
Monday the supreme court of
the United States granted the
preliminary writ applied for by
Huey P. Long. as courtsel for
himself and associates. Francis
Williams and Shelby Taylor. or
dering that Judge Rlfus E. Fos-
ter, of the United States district
court for the eastern district of
Louisiana, and the Cumberland
Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany show cause why a writ of
mandamus should not issue
against them to cease interfer-
ing with the proposed reduction
in telephone rates in Louisiana.
On October 3. 1922, a petition
of the Louisiana Public Service
Commission was filed in the SUI
preme court of the United States,
alleging that Judge Rufus E.
Foster had exceeded his power
and authority by continuing in
effect a restraining order he is
sued May l3. 1922. bat that a /
majority OF three judges had
held that the telephone company
was not entitled to a writ ct in
junction. The petition alleged
that on May 13, 1922, the Public
Service Commission ordered a
reduction in telephone rates to
the level existing prior to Feb |
ruary. 1921. and that, as result
OF that order, the telephone COM
pany had gone into the federal
court at New Orleans. asking for
an injunction to restrain the
commission; that Judge Foster
issued a temporary restraining
order against the commission,
which could continue only until
the three judges assembled and
passed upon whether or not an
Injunction should issue.
The further allegations are
made that the three judges met
and by a vote Of two to one, held
chat no injunction could issue,
and that the restraining order
,ould not longer remain effec-
i've. but that Judge Foster had
his power and jurisdic-
Ion by an appeal order in which
,e reinstated the restraining or
Ter until the case was disposed
# in the supreme court of the
United States.
The application requested that
Judge Foster be prohibited from
ontinuing the restraining order :

ase was pending on appeal and .

nit, the supreme court has al g
