whose disappearance started coun-
try-wide police search and brought
her distracted parents from Amer

1t Is feared the girl may have
killed herself In a fit of depression
from overwork ia preparation for
series Of concerts.
Helen Reichert. who is twenty
six years old. had been studying
music first at Stuttgart. then here
at Leipzig. She was pupil at the
Lake Forest Music School before
coming to Germany, two and a
half years ago. to complete her mu-
steal education,
"Helen wrote us last early in
February her father told Inter

was extremely gloomy in tone. She
seemed overworked. Then we re-

with whom she had been living

Miss Reichert studied in Stuttgart
under Professor Max Pauer, then
in Leipzig under Lambrine. Her
teachers considered her one of the
most promising pupils they ever
taught.
Miss Reichert had just reached
the point where she was to give
series of concerts, and had
plunged into preparation for them
with feverish energy. The work
taxed her strength. She also had
difficulty In finding proper quarters
in which to practice. The girl dis
appeared about midnight February

passport and even her jewelry in

"The police and the consul have

ART IRON WORK
Of old BEING
REVIVED
Gothic and Spanish Examples
of Middle Ages In Favor
Again

In the last few years there has
been considerable clever work in
iRon-work. mostly in standard
lamps, fireplace fitments and con-
!. sole tables.
In the Gothic period. however.
there was q great deal Of wrought
iron. forged iron, so-called. Usually
the artisan gave his attention TO
torcheres, wall brackets, candelabra,
fire screens. lanterns and gates, but
there are many good examples OF
early Tuscan and Fifteenth cen.
fury homework and Florentine iron
work which was applied to prac-
teal furniture, even to four.poster
beds.
Spain was also rich in her iron
work. As early as the sixth CEN
fury, Spain operated her iron mines
and IL is not surprising that the
peninsula is rich in decorative iron
work. especially that which was
forged during the middle ages.
Appeal 10 People.
There seems to- have been some
thing about the intractable metal
which appealed to the temperament
OF the people, and artists Of the
highest rank worked In 1t.
And today sales OF old Spanish
hardware. nails. locks, keys and
landings attract high prices.
Naturally much of this work
found its way into the cathedrais.
The art Of iron workmanship was
fostered in Spain, Germany, Eng
land and Italy. and not only the
ironwork but the woodwork was
influenced by the skill Of the iron
workman, and the upholgtering was
garnished by heavy nails and band
ings Of the most ornate character.
Indeed, the sole decorative mo-
tif on the heavy wooden house
doors n CASTLE and Arragon and
on the doors OF the churches and
public buildings were nails with
Cval-shaped, square and diamond
shaped heads.
Art I'm Cathedrals.
Spain has been for many years
the happy hunting ground Tor low
ers Of art, but only In recent years
have the decorators thought In
terms Of Spanish feeling. The art
Of Spain like the art of most
Catholic countries was largely &C.
elesiastical art.
The cathedra1s which called for
the eII0rI8 OF the great IuuEdl
painters and the great workers In
mosaics. naturally drew to their
fold the iron workers and for that
reason perhaps much of the work
became ecclesiastical in style, the
Gothic being the generally accept.
ed form Of ornament in the Cath
Ole churches.
Regarding the furniture Of Spain.

smith.
1t was gilded work. silvered work
or painted; or it was iron work
bronze or copper. In Italy. the
work took on a more decorative
form and Italian, German and Eng
l:sh iron work was less religious
and more strictly decorative.

800 Kinds of Oak Trees.

From the Pittsburgh Chronicle Telegraph.
There are 300 kinds of oak trees
having vastly different characteristics,
but they have one common feature,
and that is they all produce acorns.
The white oak is so called because it
has a rather white bark, while the
black oak bark is quite dark, black
to all intents and purposes during the
wood age" Live oak was always pre-
ferred for shipbuilding and for heavy
duty, but just why 1t was named Tive"
is a matter of doubt.
At one time the island of Nan
tucket was covered with live oaks. but
the land was denuded of this timber
years ago during the whaling activi
ties, when several shipbuilding yards
flourished on the island and u great
fleet of whalers was built there.
