The exhibition represents not
only some of the most outstand-
ing American printmakers, but
also those from England, France,
Germany, Mexico, Italy and
Sweden.
Modern American printmakers
are represented in the exhibition
with lit etchings, "a woodblock
prints and 80 Autographs.
Foreign Artists
The other group of prints, rep
resenting the work of foreign
artists, includes % British prints,
% French, 80 German, nine Mexi-
can, four Italian and three Swe-
dish prints.
In addition to the large num-
Der of Joseph Pennell etchings,
which are on exhibition more or
less permanently at the Library,
there are several new prints by
that famous etcher.
The exhibition of American work
also includes the etchingS Of Stow
Wengenroth, with its dark back
grounds and overcast skies.
Louis Legrand is perhaps the
most outstanding of the French
etcherS represented in the exhibi-
ton. His work shows the French
modern trend in realism.
The same trend is evident in
the work Of Kathe Kollwitz. Ger
man artist, whose work includes
a series entitled THE WeaVers'
Strike
EtchingS
The British, like the American,
etching Is more distinct and clear
than the work from the other
countries. It is interesting to
note the great amount Of dark
shading in the German and
French productions.
The work Of Luigi Kasimir, Of
the German school, is also in
teresting because of the fact that
he comes to the United States
for his scenes.
He has selected such scenes as
the United States Capitol and
800 Fifth Avenue" for two of
his very lovely aquatintS and
etchingS.

After considerable correspond

the Southern legislators, is that OF
Senator Charles McNary Of Ore
gon.
His chief secretary Mrs. Helen
Kiefer, has been with him since
1918.
Quiet, efficient. with red-brown
hair and brown eyes, this compe-

Washington whether Congress is
in session or not. She is the Sena-
ator's Washington representative
when he is away. Three other
women secretaries work under her
supervision. Her knowledge OF
Oregon and its resources is amaz.

being officious. Her face lights up
when she describes the beauties
of her beloved State. People really
live out there, she says. And she
will take you into the Senator's Of

man, daughter Of Ruth Bryan
Owen. United States Minister to
Denmark and author Of Leaves
from q Greenland Diary" has
just made q literary debut Of her
own.
LAS the Wind Blows" bearing
the imprint of the Davidson Press,
Is the title of Mrs. Lehman'S first
book, which contains three short
stories, all Of which are widely
different in mood and setting.
Although she first began writ
ing fiction as a child, Mrs. Leh-
man has never had any Of her
stories published until this year.
Her decision to wait was a wise
one, however, for her initial book
reveals her as a writer of mature
talents.
Granddaughter of William Jen-
nings Bryan and wife Of Robert
Lehman. of the well-known bank
ing house of Lehman Brothers,
this new entrant into the ranks
of the professional story-tellers is
still in her early thirties. Modest
and retiring in private life. she
has been working quietly in her
own chosen field while her mother
has been gaining new honors for
the family as this country'S first
woman minister.
LAS the Wind Blows" Motif"
and 1.-THE Last Leaf" are the three
stories which compose the con-
tents of Mrs. Lehman's first pub
lished book, and all three reveal
the author as writer Of brilliant
and unusual promise.
To a family which already
boasts of three striking and well
known personalities Kittie Owen
Lehman promises TO bring still
further distinction.

gOn is so far off. What do they
ask for? Money as a rule. Money
for crops; money to paint the

coming they are disgruntled.
But you mustn't think I am
criticizing. I'm not. Our con-
stituents are splendid. Many
of those who lost everything
during the depression have re-
habilitated themselves.

from a group of people who
want to found a colony. They
need a little money to get
started. We turned it over to

ministrator, and he is going

"And one group of 20 people
have rehabilitated themselves.
They found an old house near
the sea-Oregon has many

and pooled their resources.
They went in for grabbing,
