Art Institute
Offers Lecture
Wilbur D. Peat Will Deliver
Illustrated Talk on English
SatiriSt.

civilian Hogarth - Engiand'S
SatiriSt," will be the title of gal
lery talk to be given by Wilbur D.
at 4 tomorrow.
The lecture is open to the public
and will be illustrated with paint
ings and engravings by William Ho-
garth, now on view in the museum.
The greatest of England's pic
torial satirists was born in 1897, the
son of school teacher. He showed
an early fondness for drawing, and
as he himself wrote: MY exercises
when at school were more remarka-
BILE for the ornaments which
adorned them than for the work
itself"
His greatest ambition was to en-
grave pictures of activities or scenes
around him, and at the age of 20
he was ready to start his profession
as a professional engraver. He soon
showed a preference for satirical or
humorous situations in London, TAX
ing special delight in poking fun at
charlatans and shams of all sorts.
Hogarth began painting pictures
in Oil at an early date and found it
profitable to make engraved plates
of them and sell the prints. Thus
many of his paintings are repro
duced in engravings made either by
himself or by important engravers
of his day.
The exhibition at the John Her
ron Art Institute includes three oil
paintings and 90 engravings. The
latter collection, the gift of William
George Sullivan, includes such IA
nous sets as Marriage ala Mode"
THE Rake's Progress" "a Harlot's
Progress Industry and Idleness"
and Illustrations for Buffers 'Hud-
ibraS'"
No artist has shown more skill in
Selling upon the ridiculous or the
fantastic, the tragic or the terrible;
and no exhibition could give one
better idea of London during the
Eighteenth Century than these en-
cravings and paintings by William
Hogarth.

Leonide Massine, maitre de ball
let, creator of more thar half of
the twenty-five ballets IN the Monte
Carlo repertoire. and one of the
principal dancers Of the company,
is already known to this country.
AS a prodigy in his teens he
danced the title role in The Legend
of Joseph" with the Diaghilev Bal
let here in 1916.
He was also in New York to stage
"Sacre de Printemps" for DR.. Leo
pold StokoWSki and the Philadelphia
Symphony at the Metropolitan
Opera several seasons ago. MaSsine
is in his early thirties.
Started in LOwly Role
MaSsine began his dancing career
as a waiter carrying a large ham
m, n Y,Ioffar- acrocc a GROUNDED ctooa
This was in the Maly Theater in
Moscow, where the boy, just gradu-
ated from the Moscow Imperial
School, had a job as an extra in
Don Quixote."
Diaghilev was in the audience,
and after the performance he
sought young Leonide and told him
that any one who could carry tray
so adeptly should be fine dancer.
MaSSine, who came of a family of
engineers, had defied his father and
studied drama, music and dancing.
Under Diaghilev's tutelage he be-
came not only an outstanding dane
er but a creator of ballets of the
first rank
He made his debut in a small part
in Stravinsky's 'Petrouchka," and
then rose to Joseph" In interludeS
between dance seasons he studied
painting and sculpture in Italy and
the dance in Spain.
COIIabOrated With Reinhardt
His first opportunity as a choreo-
grapher came with Rimsky- Korsa-s
koff's Midnight Sum; then Eric
Satie's Parade" Prokofeff'S Pas

In collaboration with the German
theatrical genius, Max Reinhardt,

The movies to be voted on at this
time were released by all film COM
panies from Nov. 1, 1888, to Oct. 81,
1884.
This is the thirteenth annual poll
of critics and 1 have voted in all
of them.
My selection of the ten best for
the past year is as follows:
"Barretts of Wimpole Street." be-
cause it followed closely the play
and permitted some actors to do
magnificent character acting, eSpe-
cially Charles Laughton.
Great Expectations" because it
captured the true spirit of Charles
Dickens and gave Stuart Walker his
great opportunity to prove that he
is a genius as a movie director.
House of Rothschild," because of
George Arliss and the way the story
was developed.
Little Man, What Now" was a
masterpiece of intimate suffering on
the part of human beings. Perfectly
acted.
Our Daily Bread although it
has not had first run presentation
here. is a masterpiece, showing man
fighting depression through soil and
nature. A triumph for the director.
Treasure Island" because it
caught the spirit of romance and
adventure in youth.
What Every Woman Knows" be-
cause it was as wonderful on the
stage as on the screen.
Affairs of Cellini" was one of the
gayeSt rompS on the screen 1 ever
have seen.
Gay Divorce" because it blended
romance, melody and dance as well
as smart satire in the right measure.
Little Women" classic in liter
allure as well as in movie form.
GIVING promise to be one of the
Utmost interesting events of the
season is the Intimate Musicale for
w ch several hundred invitations
have been issued for tomorrow night.
The Intimate Musicale will be pre-
sented by Mrs. Jane Burroughs of
