Series of Sgécial_ Exhibitions in the “Little fldallery;'-‘—;ffifce Groups Attracting Attention at the Arts Club—Annual Sessions of American Federation of ‘Arts. : BY LEILA MECHLIN. HE Phillips Memorial Gallery has been featuring a series of special exhibitions this sea- son set forth in the “Little Gallery,” Ilately added. The collection now on #iew therein is cen- tered about a.mumber of works by Arthur B. Tavies, chief among which is his unfqtie and elusive “Tissue Par- nassiaz* which was hung once be- fors, but which is shown again to ‘slter advantage. It is a painting ‘done in tempera or gouache on a very fine canvas or linen. It is in 1 most delicate shades of gray and suggesting the coloring of « love's wing, and in style and spirit it is a little Teminiscent and suggestive of the paintings of the great artists of centuries ago in China. It represants A height on which grow trees and is the scene of joyous festivity in an idyllic state. The nude figures which accupy the foreground are beautifully drawn, and they were introduced, ons feels, mot from any human interest, but rather as rhythmic notes in a harmanious composition. The whoie is veiled, as it were, in mist. There are also shown two early vorks in oil by Davies and three new ater colors made on his recent trav- els in France and Italy. One of thess was done at Venice and shows whut is probably the Island of Murano in the distance across gray water, a number of black gondolas lending accent in the foreground—a sketch done very much in the Whistler spirit and with similar sensitiveness of feel- ing and perception A distinct novelty in this collection is a cool and delicious fantas tempera, by Walter Beck, the Bottom of the Sea.” Here in the transparent depths are fish, seaweed and flowers, while trooping across the upper portion of the picture nare white-robed personages with bare fee: As the artist cuts off his composition below the line of their knees the identity of these mysterious persona ties will never be known. o server is free to do his own imagininz.

To those who have visualized Senn tor Lodge as cold and rather ruthless inspired by political motives rathe: than patriotic, Mr. Groves’ book will come as a surprise. To those wic may have grown to consider Senator Lodge as the arch conservative, it will be interesting to know that he entered Congress some 37 years sgo with ‘“‘very definite and progressive views.” To those who have heard only of the Buccesses attained by ator Lodge, the discussion of his e: defeats—defeats that would have driven a less courageous and persist ent man out of politics—should prove interesting. Senator Lodge's relations with two great Americans of sthe last quarter century — Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson—are handled with no little understanding by the author an. understanding arrived at throu long conversations with Senat Lodge. Of the former, Senator Lodg was the great friend and admirer a friendship and an admiration that were mutual. Of the latter, Senator Lodge became, largely through, force of circumstances, an enemy. In his attitude on the. League of Nations which brought Senator. Lodge into deadly conflict with President Wilson “the impelling" motive,” ' says Mr Groves, “was love of country. He was arrayed against an abetract sen timent, an appealing - idealism, 1o which '@, not inconsiderable element in America responded with enthusi asm. He sought only to save his country from international commit meénts which he believed dangerous and to preserve the constitutional freedom of the United States.” “Henry Cabot Lodge—the States man®’ is easy to read, It has much literary value Quite apart from and in addition to the interesting subject matter presented. Mr. Groves has arranged with singular success the various phases of the story he seek to present—the story of Henry Cabo Lodge. He has written interesting! avoiding prosy pitfalls, into which, un fortunately, so many biographers have fallen. He has painted a clear, def! | nite picture, emphasizing the pride of service as & Senator. “The proudest words he ever ut | tered,” says Mr. Grove: ere thos | that ‘stirred the emotions ‘of a great gathering of his own people'in Bosto | %I am a Senator of the United States."’ G.G.
