and a label Is the obvious way to do
it."

This question Of authenticity and
label is carried far and extends to the
field Of industrial art today. A spe-
cialist on furniture, writing on the
subject of early furniture makers Of
Pennsylvania, in a recent magazine
declares himself capable Of dis
Nnguishing the maker by the style of
his work: thus. he AYERS. it is possi-
BILE to say with authority: "This
chair was the work Of SO and SO; so
also was this table, this sofa" In
like manner an engraver Of so years
ago was noted for his ability to dis
tinguish and fix authoritauvely even
q fragment of an engraving by any
Of his conferes, because Of a differ
ence in style. How significant in
deed, though sometimes misleading, Is
this matter Of individuality.

Memories of Bitter Fight
Aroused by the Lodge Book

Publication of Senator Lodges
posthumous book, THE Senate and
the League of Nations" revived
memories of the bitter struggle in
which the Massachusetts Senator and
Woodrow Wilson were the chief
figures. To the great satisfaction of
champions of the league, the book ap-
peared almost simultaneously with the
Locarno treaties by which the nations
of Europe pledged themselves against
war, and was followed by announce
ment of the leagues success in sup
pressing a Balkan conflict.
To the Wichita Beacon independent
Republican, it seems that LODGE 8
own book will clear up the situation
and go far toward vindicating the
course of men who were conscientious
in their opposition" to the Versailles
treaty and the league. But the New
York Times independent Democratic),
pointing out that "the great ironist,
Fate" contrived to bring out the book
on the morrow Of the Locarno treaties,
remarks: 'At any other time during
the past five years his indictment of
the league, though manifestly par
tisan and highly uncritical, would
have had a certain force for all and
would have carried conviction to
many"
1t was "the existence of the League
of Nations, and that alone" asserts
the Omaha World Herald dndepend-
ent) (which made good the conclu-
sions and agreements Of the Locarno
conference, stabilizing the peace of
Western Europe" and the Omaha
paper adds that it was 1.-The existence
of the League of Nations that made 1t
possible for the world to lock upon
the criminal folly of Greece and Bull
garia with disgust and resentment
rather than with great alarm"

Lodge passionately antagoniZed every
movement that was in agreement with
his own previous declarations. He
literally spat in the face of his own
avowed principles. And upon him will
rest through the ages the largest
share of the culpability for the failure
of the United States to make one
single contribution toward the peace
which the world now enjoys or toward

an effort to prove that Mr.. Lodges
course in 1890 was marked by deep
sincerity or real craftsmanship Is a
failure; as demonstration Of the fact
that Mr.. Lodge was an adroit and able
politician-and nothing more-it is
quite successful"
"'Mr. Wilson was not great
man." quotes the Knoxville Sentinel
independent Democratic). "Mr. Lodge

sugar?-J. r. B.

After all. the only way absolutely to
authenticate work Of art is to have
its pedigree.
Referring to this re-attribution, Mr..
Wehle Of the Metropolitan Museum
staff, in an article in the bulletin
of the museum says: 1.-THE history
of museums and collecting Is en-
livened by multitude of classic tales
of blindness and blundering, and spe-
cialists in any branch of the history
of painting would be the last to be
surprised on learning of such a. case
in our museum. Each of these stu
dents could call to mind, not without
a pitying smile, perhaps, a pet case
or two or three in his own particular
field, in which he would disagree
with the museums labelling" And
the practice of labelling pictures at
all something may indeed be said by
the esthete pure and simple. Even
granting that all labels speak the
truth, he might say that pictures do
better to speak for themselves.
Form and color should be allowed to
act directly on the emotions, whereas
the label serves to induce a distract
ing Intellectual activity. AHE And
the appreciation Of a good painting
is a complex process. Color and form
in a picture act upon our rods and
cones and nerve centers in mysterious
ways which science has thus far been
unable to explain satisfactorily. and
