That an artist can possess great talent and be successful without sporting shoulder-length curls, wear- ing mismated shoes and appearing | oblivious to all earthly surroundings, | is proved conclusively in the case of Robert Reid, decorative impressionist, who stopped off at the New Willard for a few days to visit friends and inspect the exhibition at the Corco- ran Gallery of Art. Mr. Reid was on his way from New York to resume his duties as head of the Broadmore Art Academy at Colo- rado Springs. and few more distin- guished-looking men have passed through the lobby of the hotel for many a long moon. Tall, crect of stature and wearing a closely trim- med Van Dyke beard. the famous vatnter attracted attention whenever he appeared in public during his Reid, whose two well known “The Japanese Screen® and | Open Fire." are among the per- manent exhibits at the Corcoran Gal- lery, was most enthusiastic over the progress being made by the Broad more olony, founded and reatly ! alded by Spencer I'enrose, brother of ihe late Senator Boise Penrose, who erected the wonderful Broadmore Hotel at Colorado Springs. 1 The artist's rise to fame has b steady ever since he won recognition for his mural decorations at the Chi- | cago world fair, in 1893. His work on the Literal Arts building at the exposition brought him before the public. i Mr. Reld’s art is known throughout | the world, he having assisted in the embellishment_of the Congressional Library, the United States pavillon | at the Paris exposition in 1500, the appellate court, New York; the Bos-| ton state hou well " as many | hotels and private dwellings in larger citles of the country. pictures are to be found in the Fine Arts Palace, San_Francisco; the Na- tional Museum, New York, and the Corcoran and National galleries here. Mr. Reid studied at the Art School of Boston Museum of Fine Arts, the Art Students’ League, New York, and at La Academie Julian, Paris, under Boulanger and Lefebyre. * %k %k X Last week Willlam Cyril Peter Rees of "Appy "Amstead, London, England, known throughout the British theat- rical worldas Peter-the-Page, the most popuiar messenger boy of the London Hippodrome, b'cw iInto our town, called on President Coolidge, deliv- @ed a message from the lord mayor | of London, rested a bit and biew right out again. | The little fellow nearly cried as he told the writer in the New Willard | Hotel how *“‘andsomely” he'd been | reated since arriving in America, nd said that words could not express s appreciation of the kindness.
