trays a joyous world. Miss Munroe has exhibited often in the past at the Corcoran Gallery in Washing ton.
 The painting by Nils Hogner of his wife is beautiful decorative portrait, pitched in a high fresh key. It has the vigor of spring. It is a finely planned composition full of movement, quite apart from It's sen- sitive quality as a portrait--the def initely expressed delineation of Miss Ethel Jones painted some years ago is very attractive in its simple pat tern.
 Sheldon Pennoyer is represented by a portrait of his English nephew, Kim Pennoyer, son of his brother, Richard and Lady Winifred Pcnnoy- CT. The wide scope of his successful work is suggested by this fine and characteristic portrait-and also by his other canvas, a striking autumn landscape of sun shining through storm clouds.
 The decoration on glass by Austin Purves made for Dr. Hemingway Merriman at Overlea Farms is des- cribed by himself in a printed state- ment beside the picture--It is sculp- tural in quality, and perhaps Greek too. Very lovely 1t is, and has the unique spirit of the painters pur- pose, fascinatingly portrayed. MT. Purves shows also delightful DOT trait of a little girl, which completes the exhibition-which will give a great deal of pleasure, and we are glad to know that more are planned.
