Modern Art Struck
BY High Cost of Living

Paris. Oct. IA. p. by MaiD-The
high cost of living seems to have hit
modern art hard blow. The search
ers for some new school of painting
have had to so economize in can
vas and paint the autumn salon Is
reduced to about half Its usual pro-
portions.
What there is or it is sufficiently
striking, however. The full length
portrait of a woman in the role of
Oedipues with indigo blue blood run
ming out of her eyes, is the chief
monstrosity. 1t is accompanied by
the usual debauche of flesh-athletic
and obese.
There are some ambitious exhibits
that are highly estimated by their au-
thors. Two of the pieces are ticketed
$4,000 francs each and it is declared
that they have been sold at that fig
ure.
Several critics say that the show
gives evidence that modernism in art
is going stale and that perhaps since
canvas and paint come so high eX-
travagancies will become less pre-"
dominant in the autumn show.

Children of. North Land
Receive instruction

Seattle, Oct. "a - (AP)-Native
children near Victoria land, north of
Canada, have never seen COW, a
chicken or a horse. Miss Alice Sup
plee, a Seattle school teacher, who
was marooned in the ice there for
many months, had to translate COW
into caribou, and chicken into ptar-
migan in teaching the children how
to read. She found them bright and
eager.
Miss Supplee accompanied Captain
Christian Klingenberg last year on
his trading schooner. when he sailed
for Victoria land. There she was to
give the captains daughters and a
number of native children a rudimen-
tary education. The vessel froze
into the ice about two miles off shore.
so Miss Supplee conducted school in
the tiny cabin.
Miss Supplies blue eyes. her hair
and skin caused the natives to mar

In that land and the inhabitants
came for miles to see her.
