Sargent Group on View.
AS an accompaniment to the bien-
nial, although having no connection
with it, are two special exhibits in
stalled in the atrium from which the
salons open. One is a group of I6
water colors by the late John Singer
Sargent. 1t was a notable achieve

great demand and increased value Of
the works of this recently deceased
master. The other is collection of

this sort of work in America. The
presence of both of these group ex-
hibits, which will open and close sim

G.. Powell Minnigerode. director of
the gallery announces that four pic

been purchased as additions to the per-

These are: 1.-THE Storm" by Jonas

Without in the least venturing into
the realm of the critical here. there
being full and adequate criticism in
another portion of today's Star, IL can
be safely said that those critics, both
local and out-of-town, who have had
a chance to inspect this collection
agree that the average of excellence
therein is notably high. 1t will be re-
marked, perhaps, that there seem to
be no particularly outstanding pic
lures. but this very statement bears
out the contention of general merit.
All this is especially gratifying to the
officials of the Corcoran Gallery when
it Is considered that among American
painters who have died within the
past s or 10 years, number of them
quite recently, are such men as John
Singer Sargent, Thomas Eakins,
Frank Duveneck. Joseph De Camp,

drink after the communion in memory
of the blood which flowed from the
side of the crucified Christ. The
cross was then carried to the sep
ulcher to remain until Easter morn
ing. when 1t was trtumphantly taken
TO the high altarsof the church
y Sepulcher Of Flowers.
The sepulcher, though in use only
for three days Of the year, was "a
most beautiful and costly structure
surrounded by a wealth. of adorn-
meht, consisting faof floral offerings
and 13 candles, representing Christ
and His apostles. 49,
The offering of eggs to illustrate
the elements of future life, as an
emblem of the resurrection, has
formed q part OF the Easter celebra-
ton for centuries. This custom, now
observed chiefly by children, former
ly was universal among all Christians
both old and young. In various parts
Of England, Ireland, Germany and
France 1t is still the practice of the
peasants to roll, throw and finally eat
the egg with the belief that its Vir-
tuous qualities will contribute to their
spiritual strength.
The relation between Easter and
the rabbit sprang from the latter S
connection with the moon. AS the
date of Easter depends upon the
moon, it Is in a sense lunar holiday.
From very ancient times the rabbit
has been a symbol for the moon for
many reasons AS the moon shines at
night SO the rabbit. being q nocturnal
animal. comes out at night TO feed.
Hence the dbbit born with open eyes
was tabled never to close them, and
as the moon. when full. was the open
eyed watcher of the skies at night
there arose the myth that the white
rabbit steals into the home at Easter
and hides beautifully colnred eggs fot
the children.
Lily Also Old Symbol.
The use of lilies at Easter is one of
great antiquity as we'll as one OF great
beauty. The lily, the emblem of pur-
ity and grace. is known as the Nir-
gins flower, and has been associated
with the resurrection since the fifth
century.
Another very old as well as uni,
versally observed custom is the be
lief that every one should be dressed
in a new suit for Easter. There was
a superstition prevalent in old Eng
lish times that some part Of ones
dress must be brand new" at Easter
SO that good fortune would follow
throughout the year.
"At Easter let your clothes be new,
Or else be sure you will 1t rue"
