the moment he makes the test curls
until he removes the net from your
freshly set and finished couture.
II you had a wave early in the
spring and feel that you're due fol
another soon. take q look at your
hair and see If 1t is in the best pos
sible condition. Obviously. hair that
Is burned dry by the sun. faded and
streaked by salt water and wind
Is less likely to come through a
permanent looking like silky nat
ural curls than hair that Is soft
and shining with health to start
with.
Hair Toned Up
II dandruff or some other annoy
ing scalp condition exists, get busy
with treatments to clear 1t up be-
fore you get your wave. Because
permanently waved hair Is easier
to arrange and keep looking neat,
girls tend to neglect the funda-
mentals of hair care, so any abnor-
NAL condition that existed before
may become acute. Attend to 1t
now and you'll have no cause to
worry later on.
Oily hair is an exception. Invest
in an aStringent tonic, get in few
vigorous sessions with your hair
brush, then make the appointment.
The process of waving will remove
much of the excess oil, give the
hair more spring and life and make
it easier to.inanage. Oily hair usu-
ally shows the permanent wave at
its best. This Is no excuse for neg
lect. however. Consolidate your
gains by using tonic once or twice
a week ard brushing the hair at
least Ave minutes daily to insure
the lively circulation that is essen
tial to q healthy scalp and nice
looking hair. Do not allow oil to
accumulate on the scalp.
Coming back to the permanent
itself, look for a familiar brand
name. This generally guarantees
good materials. fresh lotions and
pads and all-around quality mer-
chandise. Good waves can be given
by any Of the better known meth
DDS, II the operator knows his OF
her business. Insist always on two
or three test curls even though the
same operator has given you
wave before. Hair reflects physi-
illogical changes. SO this is eSpeci-
ally important IL you have been
nervous or Ill.
Shampoo Before Wave
Allow your hair to be thinnec
and shaped in anticipation of the
finished couture. OF course, it's bet
ter for the hairdresSer to remove
too little, rather than too mucf
so you may insist on caution here
Some hair will need to be removed

It's better to let the operator

before 1t Is blocked off and wounc
for the wave. Most operators in

through it. The design Is maze
by stopping out. which may be by
paper cut in pattern and pasted on
to the silk, or by stopping out the
design with certain opaque, greasy
liquids and using a glue solution
to cover the mesh left between or
behind the design. OF materials,
there are numerous varieties, one
must choose for ones self. The
chief advantage seems to be the
possibility of printing large editions
which may, of course, be reckoned
blessing or curse according TO the
merit of the production.
The Is silk screen prints by mem
bers of the Creative Printmakers'
Group now on view are in strong
colors and bold in treatment-also
very similar. They are landscapes,
marines, flowers, snow scenes and
people, neither very subtle nor feel
ingly rendered, but with what is
commonly called a punch. Better
perhaps than some of the Currier
and Ives prints which, because OF
rarity, bring high prices today, they
seem to offer little in esthetic en-
ioyment to those who artistically
have got beyond words Of one sylla-
BILE. But, after all, these Creative
Printmakers are to an extent ex-
perimenters. Later on, when their
medium is more fully commanded.
they will, perhaps, become more
fluent Ia expression.

In addition to the great paint
ingS, which. on the opening of the
National Gallery of Art next month,

there will be on view as part of
the national collection Al Renais-
sance sculptures of extremely rare
quality. Twenty-three of these will
come from the Mellon collection;
18 from the collection given by Mr..
KreSS.
Anticipating this acquisition, the
Washington Society of the Fine

Earle Runners Works Sho1Cn
At Whyte Gallery.
Earle Runner, a young sculptor
from Wheeling. w. Va, is showing
a large group of wood carvings
which reveal considerable magma
ton and much variety, at the
Whyte Gallery until the end of the
month. The exhibition includes
three types of work, sculptures
which the artist himself calls
"satirical grotesqueries," decorative
plaques, both wood and glass, and
utilitarisn objects.
The second and third groups of
work are delightful with a few
EXCEPTIONS, gay and youthful and
surprisingly colorful Most of us
think of wood as something in tones
of brown. Although We really know
better. it is nevertheless surprising
TO see all the natural colorS Mr..
Runner has gotten out of his woods.
He has done still life, a vase Of
flowers, an aquarium. two faces and
a storm, carving the symbols in
different colored woods and attach
ing them to fiat piece of some
contrasting or harmonizing color,
generally dark The Storm" is
particularly enchanting, with two
rain-swollen gray clouds emitting
streaks of golden lightning These
plaques would be effective deco

plane cloth and similar materials.
Mr.. Runners large collection of
utilitarian objects is also to be
commended His nicely finished
cigarette boxes paper knives,
buckles. pins and so forth, make
good use of animal, bird, fish and
insect motifs. There are little snails,
for instance. made of zebra wood,
a striped gray and black.
But the artist doubtless considers
his sculptures as his most impor-
tant work. In the biographical and
critical notes in the catalogue to his
exhibition, he says, My objective
=" is to amuse people and per-
chance to put a finger on objec-
tionable. ludicrouS, sordid human

telling captures of foibles or char
acteristics. but one searches in vain
for esthetic aspects, aside from
the finish and color of the woods,
which are often beautiful in them
selves. but not in the shapes Mr..
Runner has given them. His
Statesman" for example, is large,
realistic open mouth, in an abstract
shape roughly like a two-legged
stool. 1t recalls some of Picasso's
curious shapes during his so-called
Bone.

Notable Loan Exhibition
Collection Sho1Un in Phillips
Memorial Gallery.

Memorial Gallery.
The Phillips Memorial Gallery
will open with private view this
afternoon a notable loan exhibit
ton illustrating The Function of
Color in Painting" Not only will
this exhibition include many of the
distinguished paintings belonging to
the gallery's permanent collection,
but also important canvases by
master painters lent by out-of-town
owners and never heretofore ex-
hibited in Washington.
The purpose of the exhibition,
planned, assembled and defined by
Mr.. Phillips and Mr.. Watkins, is
primarily educational, and follows
in natural sequence the exhibition
Of last year, conceived, assembled
and annotated by the latter, which
stressed and eluciated the emotional
quality of the dominant line in
painting. Mr.. Phillips has been for
years a profound student of art
whose approach to Interpretation
has been by way of the varied ex-
pressions of personality through
equivalents of color and design. Mr..
Watkins, on the other hand, being
q teacher as well as painter, has
concerned himself much with tech
niques, especially as means to
obtaining freedom of expression and
clarification of knowledge. 1t
should be understood, however, that
in this exhibition no attempt has

painting which is least understood
by the public, yet it is color which
most closely relates the arts OF
painting and music. Comparatively
few persons realize that color is not
static, that it varies with light and
contact to other ColorS brought into
juXtapoSition. 1t is by no means,
an eXaggeration to speak of SYM
phony in Color 1t is the magic
touch Of contrasting color, rightly
placed. which often lifts a painting
to high plane of artistry. 1t was
with color. well compounded, that
the impreSSionistS recreated on cam
vas the illusions of light and air. 1t
is on the basis of color composition
that many of the post impression
lists would rest their case as artists
of mastery invention.
There will be much to learn
from this exhibition in the Phillips
Memorial Gallery. and the way
opened by it to thoughtful discus
sion.
Among some of the important
paintings lent by museums end
private collectors are such we'll
known works as Journey of the
Wise Men by Sassetta; Madonna
and Child" by School of CIccio;
Saints Cosmas and Damian." by
Fra Angelica; Portrait of Maria

Christ in Supper at Emmaus," by
