A midsummer exhibition of excep- tional attractiveness and interest opens Monday at the Corcoran Gal- lery of Art, comprising about half a hundred pastel paintings by Glenn C&per Henshaw of New York, whose work has not heretofore been shown in Washington. Mr. Henshaw, a na- tive of Indiana, went to Munich in 11902 for study and, after a year spent | in thatgeity, devpted himself to study and work in Paris, returning to the Unfted States when the war broke out, in 1914. Though he has produced some notable work in oils, he has lately specialized in pastels, and the | examples of this work, which will be shown at the Corcoran Gallery, for two weeks, beginning, tomorrow, will be in that medium. These include a | number of scenes in and around New | York, which are notable for their fidelity and highly artistic- feeling. Several portraits are Included in-the collection. vorce Plea With Counter Suit.
