OF IT woodblock prints in color by Gustave
Baunann Of Santa Fe. N. Mex, quite out Of the
ordinary and very charming. There is none
today who uses this medium more skillfulIy or
understandingly than MIR. Baumann, none who
achieves through it more artistic and delight
fully original expression.
With but one or two exceptions this entire
group of prints of Southwestern subjects,
places in the vicinity of Santa Fe and Taos
well known to the artist. Baumann in the max
ing OF these and other prints follows a. method
all his own, one very different from that en-
ployed by the great color print makers Of
japan, who were the pioneers IN this field and
the makers of tradition. He does not use black
outlines. In his prints color meets color, and
as a rule with inexpressible loveliness. He Is
an excellent craftsman but first of all, color
ist, and the colors in his prints fairly sing As
for example, Autumn Glory"-aspen trees with
foliage yellow as gold seen against the red
purple of a mountain in late afternoon light
peculiar to this region. Especially well does
he do trees, blossoming fruit trees-pink and
white with dark trunks and branches for
accent silhouetted against silvery backgrounds
symphonies of tone and very styistic. In
like manner he occasionally transcribes flowers
There is an exceptionally fine tulip print in this
series. one rendered with such simplicity and
distinction that it could not fail to delight
the OFientalist.

shown by her outstretched hands. The face
combines the tenderness of pity the sadness
Of one familiar with suffering and the poise Of
nonscious power. It is beautiful and at the
slime time full of dignity-sexless, eternal The
mature, deep-chested figure is draped, not in
the accurate costume of any one of the nursing
orders of today, but in long, rcStful perpen-
dicular lines which suggest the costume rather
than depict 1t, and accord with the severe lines
Of the niche and stele before which the figure
win stand. This stele will be fianked by the
two ends of exedra and bench extending
outward in fat curve the front face bearing,
ON the right side. the inscription, Thou shalt
not be afraid for the terror by night nor for
the arrow that f1ieth by day and on the left
side. Nor for the pestilence that walketh IN
darkness fer the destruction that wasteth

a small pylon decorated with q scroll and
wreath carved in low relief. The back of the
steie will show, Iikewize in relief the red cross,
beneath which will be the words, Blessed are

 From Hollywood
BY DAN THOMAS NEA Service Writer

Hollywood. Interesting facts about the movies and movie mak- CTS:
 One of the most important fac- tors in the making of pictures is the lighting. The proper lighting of a scene is as vital in creating the desired effect as the action of the players.
 Through strange coincidence, every time Frank Morgan steps before a motion picture camera, he finds he's the husband of Nancy carroll. The most recent occa- sion was in ''The Kiss Before the Mirror"
 . Henry Carat, French actor who recently arrived in Hollywood, maintains a small zoo at his home in Paris. His collection includes horses, dogs, gold fish. parrots, a monkey and Siamese cat.
 Philip Stong, author of "State Fair" once was freight train rakeman.
 Spencer Tracy has a huge col- lection of pipes in all shapes and sizes-but seldom smokes any of them.
 A good days work for a film company consists of turning out between three and four minutes of screen entertainment. And some- times several days are spent in shooting a scene which will run less than a minute.
 Three square meals a day, all of them of the truck driver variety. are a part of Lillian Harvey's rou- tine. And still she tips the scales at only 94 pounds. |,
 A new record has been hung up in this city where the contract is everything. Jack Conway has been directing pictures on the M-G-M lot for 10 years and never has had 8 contract. .... -
 Leo Diegel, noted golf pro, stopped on the Paramount lot to show Maurice Chevalier a certain trick shot. Two minutes later a stream of executives. directors and writers came pouring out of offices to get a few pointers. If they only could take that much interest in pictures.

Fun Makers
 on State Bill
Wheeler and WOOlsey in
 "SO This Is Africa"

Warner Brothers State theater follows the sensational record breaking run of "42nd Street" with another smashing entertain ment Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Two great feature pictures headed by Wheeler and Woolsey. in the funniest comedy of their careers, "So This Is Africai" As far as story goes, "So This Is Africa!' is imaginative, to say sthe least. What happens to Wheeler and Woolsey as they leave Amer ica and dissolve into the interior of the dark belt would be difficult to match in actual life. Which Is well, for if Wheeler and Woolsey had the burden of an utterly real istic plot to carry along, the wild humor of "So This Is Africa!" would be completely lost.
 Particularly pleasing are the sideswipes of satire that Columbia has delivered in this comedy against the succession of thrilling and adventurous wild animal pie lures that have flooded our screens.
 Raquel Torres looks more charming than ever she did in
 AlOHd or w 0lle oHduOWS Ol tue South Seas" Henry Armetta, Ed die Clayton and Spencer Charters stand out for fine performances. The rest of the cast, Tarzans, Ann azons, lions, and chorus of beau- tiful girls make appropriate dec- oration.
 The companion feature is 'The Crime of the Century, new-style mystery drama. Jean Hersholt, Stuart Erwin, Wynhe Gibson and Francee Dee play the leading roles in the film with Gordon Westcott and David Landau at the head of the supporting cast.
 The picture offers startling in- novation. The murder which mo. tivates the action is confessed be- fore it is committed. Hersholt, as a prominent alenist, walks into a police station, tellssof murder he has planned, the manner he will carry it through without in- criminating himself. Then he begs to be locked up, so that he cannot go through with it.
 Police accompany him to his home, but there, under their very eyes, not only the murder he has planned, but second, more grue- some one, takes place. A second innovation is offered here. A 60- second intermission, during which the various clues are reviewed, Is presented to the audience, so that it may attempt to pick the mur- derer itself.
