ARTIST VISITS
HERE in SEARCH
OF FINE SCENES

willard ]. Page, well known in
the southwest as a painter of ami
mails and landscapes, is in Douglas,
accompanied by Mrs. Page. He will
be here for several weeks painting
local scenes.
Mr. and Mrs. Page were formerly
with the Redpath Lyceum and Chau-
tauqua bureau Mr.. Page as car
toonist and lecturer, and Mrs. Page
in piano and vocal work.
The artist studied at the Kansas
state university, where he won a
scholarship then later at the Chi
cago Academy of Fine Arts. His
specially is western scenery and ami
mails and he has spent the greater
part of the past five years in Ari-
zona.
He conceived the idea of making
artistic, high class pictures of local
scenes and selling them at popular
prices, but with no tendency to
showiness. He does not paint in
public for any advertising concern.
Perhaps the best known of Pages
numerous canvasses is Superstition
Mountain east of Phoenix. This old
mystery mountain has been treated
in keeping with its weird appearance
by the artist.
Mr. and Mrs. Page travel in com
pletely fitted auto house, always in
search of new subjects to treat on
the canvass. They consider the seem
cry of southern Arizona the most
beautiful and unique of the entire
west.
Page is known locally, having
painted the picture Of Gaylad AZ, the
purebred bull owned by b. A. Pack
ard. At present this painting hangs
in the conference room of the First
National bank.

Artificial Sunlight
For English Windows

English women are now displaying
their individuality in window curtains.
The old uniform Venetian blind and
lace curtains caught up with cord
are replaced by pretty arrangements
of cretonnes, easements, laces, silk
nets and tapestries. The artificial
sunlight effect is being given in many
houses by the use of yellow or gold
artificial silk net which covers the
whole window and imparts a bright
glow even where there is no sun.
Gay colored cretonnes or tapestries
hung across the window at night
avoid the use of blinds and make
a warm glow of color when lights
are on inside.

made Sunday morning by the Rev.

Howard University, Washington, who
preached at the opening service of
the Nazarene Colored Congregation
al Church. Grand Avenue and Lef-

"Those who suffer-" he said, care
often closest to the Kingdom of God.
1t is suffering that makes us feel ;
makes us think while other men
sleep. 1t is suffering that gives us
vistas that the complacent, happy
man may never have an inkling Of.
"The Negro people are at that
point in history. We sing; but don't
think we are happy altogether; the
same thing that makes us sing makes
our heart break. You hear our song
you cannot feel the pain we carry in
our hearts,"
The congregation recently pur-
chased its present edifice from the
Unitarian Church of Our Father.
