ADORNS' EYES HEAD
WITH HAIR RIBBON
Painters Exhibit of Garden
of Eden Criticized by
Women'S Club.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, April 11.-A painting Of
Adam and Eve in the Garden Of Eden
and nothing else except hair ribbon
has created quite an argument at the
Illinois Women's Athletic Club.
The painting is by Miss Valentine
Vogel of st. Louis and hangs in Spe.
cial exhibit The title is "Apres," which
some one said means after"
The purely technical criticism of Mrs
Minna Schmidt concerned the hair rib
bon atop Ewes head. Mrs. Schmidt ex-
pressed serious doubt that there were
hair ribbons in those days.
The picture shows the first man and
the first woman in red silhouette against
a green sky. Eve is facing the camera.
Adam is peeping toward the horizon.
It is the idea of Mrs. Charles Peter
son. chairman of the clubs art salon,
that the picture represents the awaken
ing of womanhood, or something Of that
sort. 1t is the opinion of Mrs. Bessie
Bragg Pierce, president, that a hair
ribbon is inadequate attire. She feels
that as long as Eve was buying ribbon
she might as well have bought some
more.
The club has been unable to decide
whether to Danish the work from the
salon, much as Adam and Eve were
banished from the Garden. In the
meantime the artist, Miss Vogel who
is "a years old, says that if her picture
Is ruled out, then half the pictures in
the art institute ought to be ruled out,
too.

All week he pursues his regular calling,
