It was not a reception in the gen- erally accepted sense of the word. There was no receiying line. The 3 therefore, immediately 1 underwent no delay in their opportunity to embark on tours of the various exhibition halls. Every picture in the permanent col- lection of the gallery, closed since No- vember 22 in anticipation of event, has been removed, with the sin- gle invariable exception of the full- length portrait of the late W. W. Cor- coran. The staircase and hallways were profusely decorated with palms, cedar and bay trees, while the walls of the varlous galleries were eff tively set off with festoons of laurel roping. A large stringed orchestra played throughout the evening. Many Artists Attend. Included in the list of visitors was a large number of distinguished art- ists and art critics from Phila- delphta, New York and Boston, while several metropolitan dalltes, such as the New York Times,» New York World and New York Evening Post, sent their speclal representa- tives to cover the exhibition. Presi- dents and directors of a number of out-of-town art Institutions were also present, whilé three of the four Wil- llam A. Clark prize winners were in attendance. These were George W ley Bellows of New York, first award; Charles Webster Hawthorne of Prov- incetown, Mass., second award, and John Noble, Paris, fourth award. Mau- rice B. Prendergast of New York, who won the third prize, was prevented from coming by a serfous iliness. An effective and spacious installa- tion of the 383 separate paintings which make up the exhibition, the re- sult of the labors of the professional jufy on award, which also served as a hanging committee, alded the guests in thelr enjoymient of the wide variety of pictures displayed. The paintings given the four Willlam A. Clark prizes, which carry the highest cash awards of their kind in America and ;which &s far as known, are the most substantial of their kind given anywhere. in the world, are marked with placards, as are also a number of other works ineligible for prizes because their authors have previously won Clark prizes or served as mem- bers of the jury, Number of Local Painters. There are 383 pictures In this ex- hibition as against 292 In the eighth, held at the Corcoran gallery two years ago. They.represent the work of 286 artists, of whom seventeen are residents of Washington, and no fewer than sixty-eight are women. The percentage of local painters is unusually high as compared with ex- hibitions of the same class held else- where.

List of Prize Winners. The four prize winners, with their entries, are as follows: First—Willlam A. Clark prize, $2,000, accompanied by the Corcoran gold medal, to George W.

As with past biennlal exhibits, an entire week will be set aside in January for a public referendum as to the merits of the paintings on dis- play. During that week each visi- tor to tne gallery will be given a ballot which he or she is requested to deposit after a careful scrutiny of the exhibition. Every picture therein is eligible for this competi- tion, which carries with it a specfal generous prize given by the Corcoran gallery. It has heen interesting to note In past_public referenda here how nearly the taste of the Wash- ington public coincides with the high opinion of art. critics and artists. This does not mean that the public agrees with the first prize awards, although sometimes one of the prize winners has been given the public verdict. The art-loving public here, however, has in nearly every case hit upon pictures of real artistic merit for its first, second and third choices.

Since the inception of the National Cathedral here, prominent men of the !nation have given the movement to complete it a helping hand, with the result that this week the National Cathedral Foundation is engaged in a determined effort to raise $10,000,000 Inecessary to complete the structure. i Even as George Washington," in | planning the Capital city, saw the necessity of “a great house of prayer for all people,” statesmen in general, no matter of what enurcn affiliation, have been sympatheticaiiy inclined toward the National Cathedral project. The membershinp of the cathedral chapter and committees has been through the years of their existence {® roster of notable names. The ad- miral of the Navy, George Dewey, was a cathedral trustee, and speak- ing once of the plan he sald: "My father helped to bulld the little church at our home in Vermont. Everything that is good in me I got from him, and if I can help in any way to bulld the Cathedral of Wash- ington, I am following in his foot- steps. Prestdents See Value. | Understanding and_appreciation of | what the National Cathedral means | to the country have been evinced by | the veral Presiflents who have been in offiice since the movement for it began. President McKinley, who spoke at the dedication of the peace cross that signalized the close of the war with Spain {n 1898, said: “I appreciate the very great privilege given me to participate with the ancient church here represented, its bishops and its laymen, In this new sowing for the Master and for men. Every under- is a positive gain to citizenship, to country and to clvilization.” President Roosevelt said, on the occasion of the foundation stone lay ing, September 29, 1907: “I believe 8o implicitly in the good that will be done by and through this cathedral because I know that the people of this church, the people of kindred jchurches, to one of which I belong, | are growing more and more to real- ize that they must show by their lives | how well they appreciate the truth | of the text that they shall be judged by their fruits.” WIIl Add to City's Beauty. Woodrow Wilson, in a letter 1o the Rt. Rev. James Freeman, D. D., wrote: “I am glad to second you in any way possible in accomplishing the completion of the cathedral here. Its completion will not only add greatly to the stately beauty of our National Capital, but will provide a center from which I bellev under your guldance, the most s ul and beneficlal work can be done for the uplift of the community and stimula- tion of the nation. 1 hope with all my heart that your efforts in this matter will be crowned with the most complete success.” President Coolidge, on the occasion of the open-air service at the amphi- theater of the National Cathedral, following the consecration of Bishop Freeman, wrote: “Your work is to be commended because it represents the foundation of all progre. all gov- ernment and all civillzation. That foundation is religion. Whateve inspires and strengthens the religio belief and religious activity of the people, whatever ministers to their spiritual life, 18 of supreme impor- tance. Without it all other efforts will fail. With it _there lies the only hope of success. The strength of our country is the strength of its relig- fods convictions.” Work Gains Impetus. A marked impetus has been given to the work since the consecration of Rt. Rev. James E. Freeman as the third Bishop of Washington. He Is tfamiliar with every feature of the cathedral work, because, shortly after coming to Washington as rector of Epiphany Church, the late Bishop Harding _made Dr. Freeman a canon of the Washington cathedral and a member of ite chapter.

The national chairman of the cam- paign to raise the $10,000,000 found to complete the cathedral within five years is Senator George Wharton Pepper, while the chairman of Wash- ington ‘s John Hays Hammond. Asslsting very materfally in the erection of the cathedral are the na- tional cathedral committees in a num- ber of American dloceses and the members of the National Cathedral Assoclation, which {s an organization of men, women and children all over the United States who once a year are making a contribution of $1 to $1,000 for the building of the cathe- dral. The membership is made up of followers of many religlous denomi- Jons. It is not confined to mem- s of the Episcopal Church.

First Meeting in 1501, The first meeting for the organiza- tion of the National Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul was held in 1891 at the residence in Washington of Charles C. Glover. In 1893 Congress granted a charter to the Protestant Episcopal Cathedral Foundation “for the promotion of re- ligion, education and charity.” Two years later the present diocese of Washington was created. Rt. Rev. Henry Yates Satterlee was consecrated the first Bishop of Washington In 1896, and a site of forty acres at Massachusetts and Wisconsin avenues was sclected for the location of the future cathedral The Peace Cross was raised in 1898 The National Cathedral School for irls, the gift of Mrs. Phoeb: Ran- dolph’ Hearst, widow of Senator George Hearst of Callfornia, was dedicated in_ 1900, the National athedral Choir for Boys, known as St. Alban’s School, the gift of Mrs. Harriet Lane Johnston, niece of President Buchanan, was opened nine years later.
