Cooking Is the 8th Art A in France —Yet the great number of meals that big Americar Ho- tels are able to turn out-was a revelation to the visiting hotei men from France. It is the enormous refrigerators — the storage facilities—that enable the American Hotels to keep such vast supplies always on hand. i In France the ice blocks weighing only a few pounds.

A carving of the head of Christ, sculptured on the concave pod of a Florida bean by a prisoner awaliting execution {n Central America a quar- ter of a century ago, and pronounced as the smallest carving in the world to have genuine artistic merit, re- ceived a great deal of publicity in the New York press last spring. At that time it was announced that its custodians, two prominent soclety women, were planning to install it in a permanent shrine, a plan indorsed by several prominent metropolitan clergymen, It was stated then, and generally believed, that this work of art had no duplicate and no equal. It fs in- teresting to learn, therefore. that in the collection of a former Washing- tonlan, the late Willlam E. Curtis, for many years special correspondent of the Chicago Record-Herald, The Eve- ning Star and other papers, two simi- lar “carvings have been discovered, both made from the same sort o bean, with the shell of the bean form. ing a minute frame.

F. A. Parsons, Authority on Dec- oration, Makes After-Dinner Talk. Frank Alvah Parsons of New York, the eminent authority on decoration, was the guest of honor last evening of the Arts Club, 2017 I street, at the regular club dinner, which was at- tended by a full complement of mem- bers and guests. After dinner Mr. Parsons addressed a capacity audience in the club par- lors on the subject of modernism in art. He stressed the need of recog- nition of the fundamentals in art as against the following of fashions. In clothes, in architecture, In decora- tions as well as In painting and sculpture, he said, the tendency - of the times'Is to depart from the essen- tial principles to pursue fads that quickly pass. But a_constant de- velopment is recognizable of a spirit of truth In art expression. and throughout this country peopie are coming to realize the need of stand- ards that are immune to the fluctua- tions of fashion. Mr. Parsons' witty characterizations of the “modern- ists” who go to extremes were re- ceived with emphatic applause. ~ Christ, very similar to the “Christus de Profundis” already praised so highly by artists and art critics. The other represents a saint with a child and is, of the two, perhaps the more remarkable. The Curtis collection, made during several decades of world- wide travel, during which its owner enjoyed specla! facilities for obtain- ing rare -books, manuscripts and works of art, is to be sold soon In Washington. ‘The head first noted was sald to have been made bv 2 man in prison in Guatemala. The history of the two Curtis carvings is not so explicit, al- though it is known that Mr. Curtis brought them here more than thirty years ago from the same republic.
