contributions are a number Of beautiful archi-

Union Station, the facade Of the New York
Public Library, finely interpreted, q figure

nighttime picture of fireworks seen across the
White Lot. H. j. Wing shows some very fine
snow pictures. There landscapes and
city pictures, portraits and figure COM

out the element of beauty-not excepting
three very strange themes chosen and inter-
preted by NJ M WaShburn. evidently Of q
mechanical turn of mind-one of which is of
two "Spigots," another Of Hay Rake" and a
third of "Cable Drums" What could be more
alluring to the dyed-in-the-wool modernist-
painter than such unlovely things as these?
And what would he make Of them but things
most unlovely? But here, in these photographs,
they take the aspect of magic tools, won to
mans uses by titanic achievement.
Among others represented in this admirable
exhibition, which gives the cheering assurance
that the love Of sheer beauty still thrives, are

photopictoralsts. perhaps better known out

been regular contributors to the leading photo
graphic shows held in the large cities, such
as Pittsburgh, Buffalo and Cleveland. Some
Of their fellow members are professional pho

this art as vocation. The collection of prints
set forth in the National Museum Is small but
varied. and every print therein Is q work of
art which Is more than can be said of some
OF the painters exhibitions.
