Few other artists have ever depicted the spirit of Alaska as well as has Mrs. Had- man in her colorful canvases. Perhaps the most interesting that of “Neptune’s ' Horses, artist’s interpretation of wild waves beating upon jagged rocks, The| imaginary “horses” are so skilfully blended into the background that upon first glance the observer is unaware of the phenomenon. It is a scene that calls one back time after time for further study. “Tiderip at Daylight” is the pic- turization of one of the most dan- gerous capes in Alaska, a point where many a seaworthy vessel has been sent to the bottom. Mrs. Hadman has, with great dexterity, conveyed a sinister appearance to this very real scene. The “Fisherman’s Dream,” an amusing depiction of an old salt's idea of Utopia, is one of Mrs. Hadman's best works. The smug| look on the Sailor’s face, as beau- tiful mermaids entwine their lovely arms about him, cannot fail to bring a chuckle from the onlooke: while the clear detail and mastery of color will delight the art-lover’s senses. is an Many of the paintings are glimpses of the Artist's life, such as “Fog at Murder Cove,” “Young Fisherman,” and “The Red Deck.” Others are portraits of Alaskan| characters whom Mrs. Hadman has| met during her years as a fisher- man’s wife. | “The Danish King” is a remark- ably life-like picturization of an| old Square Rigger with many years of real living and adventure be- hind him. Brawny muscles and | steel gray eyes are vividly por- trayed by Mrs. Hadman, who also! adds some amusing narrative to| her explanation of the painting. i Framing of the canvases was| done by the artist herself. Novel| as well as beautiful, they are made | of Oregon cedar with various fin-| ishes, suitable to the pictures they | contain. The exhibition is open to the} public in the afternoons and Mrs.| Hadman cordially invites anyone! interested to visit the show, where | she will be on hand to discuss the paintings and answer any, ques- tions.

WAR IN EUROPE T0BEPROLONGED SAYS OWI DAVIS WASHINGTON, Oct. 7 — Failure of Allied airborne troops at Arn- hem, in the opinion of OWI Di- rector Elmer Davis, makes “more remote’ the chances of victory in Europe this year. Davis said “the Arnhem affair” made out of date the OWI report that predicted Germany to go down “before or not long after the end of 1944." He referred to the 11- day struggle to hold the bridge- head across the Rhine at Arnhem, Holland, against superior forces. ‘The report was not intended for publication but “leaked” after 8,000 copies were prepared and some 4,000 distributed to persons in the adver- tising business. Davis forecast that 5,000,000 workers will change jobs after V- Day in Europe. The German col- lapse will bring “widespread, and in some quarters, serious” dislo- cations of civilian life, said.
