General Public, as Sculptor
Demanded.

The beautiful bronze figure Of q
nude female erected by admirers
of the late Joseph j.. Darlington,
prominent attorney in Judiciary
Square, which has aroused no end
of discussion in art and other
circles, will have to face the other
way according. to p. G. Jennewein,
the sculptor. who on his visit here
few days ago. was shocked to
find that the nymph, with her
little fawn, was showing her beau
tifuI back to the main thorough
fare and what was formerly Darl-
ington's office on lawyers row on
Fifth street.
Jennewein at once got in touch
with the Fine Arts Commission
which selected the statue, as well
as the site, and requested that the
figure be turned completely around
with her face toward the street,
and walk leading up from the in
tersection of Indiana avenue and
Fifth street northwest. Her back
will be turned halfway towards
the courthouse in her new position.
The dedicatory inscription on the
marble pedestal directly underneath
the figures face will now be under
her back. Workmen were engaged
today with derrick and other para
phernalia turning the, lady around,
so the general public may look her
in the face.

While half the country finds its

against high-priced fruits, grains,

The West. at the mercy of

of raising grain, apples, prunes,
wool, of cutting timber and
manufacturing cement with the
