When Doctor Caswen called Els
worth would talk about the graceful
lines of the andirons. He would
dwell on the rich variety Of color
in a bowl of fruit. He proudly dis
played the variegated smears Of
paint on his heavy silk dressing
gown. He would not allow his valet
to send it to the cleaners. He
wanted to show the doctor how hard
he'd been working.
The treatment was working per-
fectly. No more trips downtown to
become involved in purchases of en-
terprises Of doubtful solvency.
The doctor thought it safe to allow
Ellsworth to visit the Metropolitan,
the Museum of Modern Art and 9TH
er exhibits with Swain. An entirely
new world opened up its charming
mysteries. The old man displayed
an Unsuitable curiosity about the gal
leries and the painters who exhibit
ed in them. How were the galleries
run? Who selected the canvasses
for the exhibitions? An idea was
forming in his brain.
When the late spring sun began to
cloak the fields and gardens with
color Ellsworth executed an awful
smudge which he called 'Trees
Dressed in White" Then he made
a startling announcement. He was
going to exhibit it in the Summer
show at the Lathrop Gallery!
For the summer show at Lathrop
Gallery was the biggest art exhibit
Of the year = in quality if not in

1--WE can't interfere with him now
and take a chance of spelling all
the good work that we've accom-
plished."
To the utter astonishment Of all
three - and especially Swain -
''Trees Dressed in White" was ac-
cepted for the Lathrop show. Not
only was Mister Ellsworth crazy,
thought Kppel. but the Lathrop
Gallery was crazy, too. -
Fortunately, the painting was
hung in an inconspicuous place
where it could not excite any no.
ticeable comment. Young Swain
sneaked into the gallery one after
noon and blushed to the top of his
ears when he saw Trees Dressed
in White" loud, raucous splash
on a wall otherwise drenched In
beauty and harmony. AS two gig
Cling students stopped before the
strange anomaly Swain fled in ter
ror. He could not bear to hear what
they had to say.
Two days before the close Of the
exhibition a special messenger
brought long official-looking en-
velope to Mister Ellsworth while
Swain, Koppel and the doctor
were in the room. "Read it to me-"
requested the old man. ''My eyes
are tired from painting"
The doctor read:
1t gives the Lathrop Gallery
pleasure to announce that the
First Landscape Prize of $1,000
has been awarded to Coils P.
Ellsworth for his painting
''Trees Dressed in White"
Swain and Koppel uttered a series

French Underground Leader
Says New Unity Guides People
Gen. de BenouviIIe
p Gives Lecture Here
On Tour of u. S. i

A new unity, born of the resist
ance, is guiding the French people
in rebuilding their country, accord
ing to Gen. Guillain de Benouville,
a French underground leader.
The 32-year-old general who lee
tured on his book lie Sacrifice du
Matin," to the Alliance Francaise
yesterday in Anderson House, 2118
Massachusetts, avenue NV, is in the
United States on a lecture tour.
"The most important thing now
about the resistance is that it has
made a unity inside the country.
Expected Torture.
1--WE of the underground were
there because we chose to be. There
was no military life. The under
ground troops knew that If they
were made prisoners they could ex-
pect torture and death. I know of
no family that was not in some way
connected with the movement.
It is because Of this unity, he
said, that France has been able to
restore her industry-not yet to the
point where the people can buy
anything they need, since the coun-
try is still suffering from the finan-
cial and manpower ravages of the
Germans.
But" he went on, I'VE have al
ready brought our coal production
to 20 per cent more than In 1898.
Our automobile industry is now 10
per cent of what it was in 1885,"
Must Help Germany.
Gen. de Benouville said Europe
must be rebuilt by a concerted ef-
fort. Germany must be helped ITO
come back to peace" he added, but
I'VE can't give them back their in
dustry. If they have it, they will
employ it for war"
Gen. de Benouville was wounded
in the fighting for the liberation of
Southern France. He still has a
stiff leg, but he credits America with
his having it at all. The Americans
