motif Of all American ar
: chitecture. according to the
u views OF Charles Sheeler, an
American nodernist who is an artist
employing the medium of pencil, oils,
water color and camera. He has under
taken to prove this point with Illus
tration in all of these channels of ar
t!stic expression and his subjects in
dude eighteenth-c century New Eng
land barns and modern Manhattan
skyscrapers.
A second definite aim OF this artist Is
to prove to the art world that there is
much that is pleasing to contemplate In
the strictly unitarian things of every
day life. The very tools Of living. tele-
phones. radiators, stairways, light on
glass of water, books on a window sill,
possess beauty that Is worth recording
N art, according to Mr.. Sheeler.
These two basic ideas are expressed
in the series Of highly artistic photo
graphs by Mr. Sheeler which are now on
exhibition at the Penguin Club and
which have been the subject Of dis
cussion and favorable comment among
Washington artists and connoisseurs.
There are about twenty-five of Mr..
Shelters photographs in this collection
and one water color. The subjects
have wide range, including old
barns. cosy hooks by sunny windows,
corners under the stairs, rustic land
scapes. metropolitan skyscrapers. a
couple OF old masks and homely
groups of pottery and flowers.

ates. Here it is desired that they
shall feel free to come from every
section Of the country to exchange
views and to make plans for the bet
terment Of education and Of all en-
terprises allied to it and growing out
Of It,
1t is to be a clearing house for
the college graduates of the country,
the greater number of whom are
actively interested in the great move
ments Of the day.
At present Mrs. Frances Fenton
Bernard, acting as educational sec
rotary, is living at the clubhouse
and making a study OF educational
conditions for the national organiza-
ton.
OF interest both to the resident
" m en- bers and to members
throughout the country Is the fact
that noted women who come to
Washington on public missions or
private business are more and more
stopping at the clubhouse, finding It
convenient center for getting in
touch with other women and fire.
Quently giving talks on the special
subjects in which they are interested.
Recently there have been Signora
Agresti of Rome, Mrs. Oliver Strachey
Of London and others well known at
home and abroad, who have extended
their influence from the clubhouse
to various other organizations.
A new feature of the Association of
University Women is it's participa-
ton In the International Federation
Of University Women, which dates
only from 1920, but which includes
associations from seventeen coun-
tries, including the United States,
England, Canada, France. Spain and
Holland, the original members, and
those which have since joined-India,
Norway. Sweden, Australia, Austria.
Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Denmark,
Finland, Italy and New Zealand. The
last meeting, which was held in
Paris. was attended by representa-
tives from all parts OF the world.
The question OF clubhouses in the
various capitals received much at
tention, and the one in Paris, where
the meetings were held, was SO de-
lightful that plans for establishing
homes In other cities are going for
ward as rapidly as possible. The

"ASTER was not responsible for
- the extraordinary influx Of new
hats. March winds and tides
- must have blown them in or
floats them in.
AS early as February it was ap-
parent that no woman would be con-
tent to wear what she possessed. She
would be compelled by curiosity and
eagerness to follow the new fashions
which are perplexing. to say 1t
mildly.
France is more closely watched
for hats than frocks, so when 1t be-
came apparent that French milliners
were determined 20 emphasize We
torian headgear women began to ask
themselves If their foreheads could
stand the sweeping, coqGetry OF poke
bonnets. on. =.
Maybe the milliners beat the dress
makers In the race toward a Victo-
rian revival, for they inaugurated the
hat with the scoop brim last summer.
Then 1t was n tentative experiment
Later they determined to establish II
as a dominant fashion.
Dressmakers took their cue from
the success Of these semi-poke bon
nets when they revived the hustle.
the upward tilt to the back of the
skirt, the multiplicity Of ruffies. Golf
teurs quickly advanced fat sleek
hairdressing and placed the knot at
the nape of the neck.
Such fashions crept forward in so
steady manner that the public is
partly thrilled. partly shocked at their
extraordinary popularity this spring.
Most women had not watched signs
and symbols: now whea they are
aware that bustles, crinolines. fat
,ollars, smooth coiffures and poke
bonnets are in fashion. they gasp and
say: I'VE can't wear them" But they
can. and they Will.
lIach generation modifes an old
fashion. The woman in the present
never looks like the woman in the
past even when she copies her
clothes. We think most things are
ugly which preceded our day, yet
when we adopt them for ourselves we
consider them most attractive
X K x
NUCH is the changing attitude OF
~ mind a healthy change at that.
II has happened this year. Every
woman IS caught IN the mesh of 1t.
Most of US go around saying to each
other: I'VE never thought I'd look
like the family album"
As Victorian fashions do not en-
tlreiy rule the season. there is dan
ger that women Will get their cos
tumery fearfully and wonderfully
mixed II they attempt to wear a
Victorian poke bonnet with straight
Egyptian frock embroidered with
pyramids and elephants. the effect
will be far from good. A historical
censor may be needed TO instruct a
woman how to assemble the various
parts OF costume.
OF course, she is not restricted to
poke bonnets in her headgear. That's
the good news of this season. Hats
are curiously varied. She can find
wide brims. small turbans. tiny caps
helmets, English garden sunshades
extravagant. capricious evening hats
in lace, crepe and jewels, and Indian
turbans richly ornamented in mosaic

TIE KINGS LIONS

Keeper 10 let h.u loose IN the garden
tonight as the Earl always walks there
early in the morning"
In the morning the windows IF the
castle were filled with curious people
who wanted to see the end of it. The
lion was rowing about when the Ear!
walked into the garden as usual to
take the air, with morning gown, a
night cap on and his girdIe and sword
Tie lion went up to him roaring and
shaking his shaggy crest; but Henry
received him undaunted and firmly
said to him in a strong angry tone:
Stand YOU dos" The lion crouched
at his feet Henry took him by the
neck and put him in the cage leaving
his night cap on the lions back, and
so walked away unconcerned AS he
was passing the windows he noticed
the curious onlOokers. He bowed to
them and said: Now let the proud
- of you all who boast so much of
y Jur noble birth and courage go fetch
my night cap, and keep. it for his
pains
They felt the force of his reproof
and shrank back from the window
ashamed of themselves.

the authorities stirred up in Berlin

But it goes without saying that
the situation in the Ruhr keeps the
country badly unsettled and it
wouldn't be surprising if something
unpleasant really were to happen any
time
This is true of France, too, where
hiG political opponents are raking
Premier Poincare mercilessly, in the
Chamber of Deputies and out of it.
There seems to be some ground for
criticism when it's considered that
France and Belgium, between them,
are getting only an estimated 5000
tons of coal and coke from the Ruhr
a day, as compared with 10000 they
were getting before they seized the
mines, inorder to get more, And
the franc has slumped from TAP
American cents to SOC in the same
time.

do.
