SATURDAY, JUNE 14TH, was
the opening of the new Federal
Exhibition, Ruth Reeves Tex
tiles"-Walls of the Key West Art
Center Gallery are gay with color.
This collection of printed fabricks
is composed entirely of work by
Ruth Reeves. She constantly ex-
periments with esthetic forms, tex
tiles and technical media.
Miss Reeves artistry has taken
cirative form in her fabrics with
original abstract symbols and pic
torial devices reminiscent of
every day life or adapting ancient
folk patterns.
Carnegie Institute sent Miss
Reeves to Guatemala to study the
primitive motives and native In
dian weavings. Many of her de-
signs are inspired by these. Among
other productions, have been made
hand printed textiles, the "Ame-
rican Home" and Hudson River"
series. She is a pupil of Kenneth
Hayes Miller in New York and F.
Le'gar in Paris. Examples of her
work are in the Cleveland Museum
of Art and Radio City Music hall.
Miss Reeves has recently been
awarded a second Guggenheim

to continue the study of ancient
and modren textile designs in
South America. The twelve beau
tiful fabrics displayed are rich in
color and design. Soft rosy browns
and vivid reds and green's are
pleasing to the eye. No discordant

OBSERVANCE OF LENT

When the custom of observing the an
nual period of fasting known as Lent began
is not known with certainty, but it orig
irated early in the life of the church, prob
ably in the latter part of the second century
after Christ.
In the past the time of observance and
the number of days included in the Lenten
season have varied widely, and these mat
tiers were long the subject of serious con-
troversy among ecclesiastical authorl-
ties
At first, it appears from the writings
of early fathers of the church, only one or
two days of fasting were prescribed. BY
the fourth century, periods of three, six and
even seven weeks were observed in various
countries, with varying customs with re-
spect to the continuity of the fast.
AS at present established, Lent is
fast of forty days. not including Sundays.
beginning with Ash Wednesday and ending
the Saturday before Easter. This year Ash
Wednesday fell on February 26, and Easter
falls on April Is.
During Lent it is considered desirable
by the churches observing it that their
members abstain from food each tastlng
dav until evening; also that the season be
marked by frequent attendance at worship
and increased diligence in works OF
charity.
Various degrees of strictness have
nrevailed from time to time, and exceptions
have generally been made according 10 the
physical needs of certain individuals IN
dulcence in worldly amusements is CON
sidered unsuitable to the Lenten season
which is observed throughout Chrlstendom'
particularly by the Roman Catholic, An
olican and Lutheran churches.

WOODEN BRIDGES GOING

News that several more of the wooden
bridges in Overseas Highway are about to
be eliminated is of the greatest interest to
Key Westers.
Most local people have felt confident
that concentration of army and navy per-
sonnet here would force completion of the
road eventually, but it is pleasing to hear
that some of the bridges are to be made
safe in the near future.
Both from the standpoint of safety and
because of the delay entailed in getting
over the old parts of the road and the
wooden bridges, completion of the highway
is a vital necessity to this community. The
ride over the highway is one of the most
beautiful and interesting in the nation, but
many people visiting here for the first tine
are disappointed when they find that parts
CT it bear little resemblance to the postcard
pictures
Key Westers naturally have been re-
sentful over the way in which they were
ignored by the state road commission under
former Governor Cone. They hoped for ar
improvement in conditions when Governor
Holland injected some new blood into the
commission, and now it seems that Key
West is going to get more attention from
the state government.
Elimination of all the wooden bridges
should come fairly soon. Two or three will
be taken out of the highway system under
the program for which bids are to be taken
this month, and the others probably will
follow.
There should be no letup in the eff
forts of Key West leaders and representa-
tives to get the road routed over the old
railway viaducts however.
If Only one wooden bridge were left in
the system, it would take only small fire
on that bridge to put the entire Overseas
Highway out of commission and effectively
isolate Key West from the mainland.
