J., and most of the paintings shown were produced on a Summer holiday at Monhegan, Me. Mr. Wilson’s chief exhibit, however, is a painting of the National Academy of Sclences, seen in the light of a Summer moon, its beautiful facade and entrance reflected In the first of the serles of still pools at the foot of the broad steps—a charming theme well rendered. With this exception, 26 exhibits are little pictures, larger. perhaps, than the ordingry thumb-box, but not as large as the usual canvas. “The Village. Foggy Night,” s a nocturne; ““The Clearing a wood interior: “The Shroud.” a pic ture of fog descending on a rocky Maine headland—pictorial themes all, perhaps a little tightly rendered, with an inclination to photographic detail, but still very good. Mr. Van Duyne shows 58 little pic- tures, among them A Spring Freshet —Potomac River,” and a very attrac. tive nocturne, “The Harvest Moon.” His style follows closely that of his teacher-colleague, but there s a dis tinguishing difference. This is an interesting and com- mendable display and will continue for another week. * ok ok % AT the Metropolitan Museum, New York, a memortal exhibition of George Bellows' paintings and litho- graphs is at present on view. This comprises 63 paintings and 59 litho. graphs, besides 24 drawin, all of which are listed, described and illus. trated in the catalogue of the exhibi- tion, which contains, besides, a sympa thetic ‘and kighly appreciative intro. duction written by Frank Crownin shield, son of the well known mural painter, who was onetime director of the American Academy and who is himself editor Fair. of Vanity The paintings are all displayed one large gallery and make an extraordinarily impressive showing. Whatever else may be said of George Bellows, certainly his work ias not lacking in originalty or strength. Mr. Crowninshield compares it with the paintings of Homer and the poetry of Whitman, and ventures the opinion that the works of these three will be seen to constitute “the most inspiring, the most native and the flavored performances in American ar: X the Grand Central Galleries, New York, this month a group of small works in_ sculpture by Emile Antoine Bourdelle, one of the most distinguished of living French ‘sculp. tors, is on view Bourdelle is a modernist, draws his inspiration from pre-his toric works and the cruder presenta tions of those of genius among primi tive peoples. He has, however, & long list of achievement, and by his own nation he is held in highest esteem. Tt Is interesting to know that Bour- delle designed the Duncar’s first American program, and that this was Amenjea’s introduction to his work.

HIS is the opening day of a big annual week-long convention. A novel feature of this assem- blage is that it bears none of the familiar insignia of the usual convention—no packed trains rushing toward one another upon & common point; no bustling station; no crowded streets; none of the enliv- ening business-and-soclal blend that for the time being turns overy conven- tlon town into scenes of gayety and fraternal good will. In this case the meeting is that of mind alone—that of many minds coming together upon the children of the country at a single vital point. Books for’ young folks—this is the | core of the matter that has brought | thousands of men and women to- | gether in a single huge combination of interest and action. And here is the week of their annual drive upon their special scheme of education. Schools and libraries, clubs and shops and newspapers, and the children themselves, all over the country stand as the enthusiastic and capable medium of this good enterprise. % ok A MATTER of small beginnings, no doubt, this general organizing for action on the subject of reading for voung folks. As if two—two women, maybe —were talking somewhat pride- fully of the education for all which this country presses upon its chil- dren. Then the wiser of the two may have suggested that only a small part of the responsibility in the mat- ing children not he dangerous a s initial point others equally to read; that it must age. there vital For beyond this e clearly and obligatory all reading is to create a passion for {it. That this goal lies in the very |ab—ab moment of the whole busi- ness. For u reading love, deep and ingrained, not only opens ihe way to ugainst the loss of friends and health, against ghe fatal sapping loneliness of a mind driven in upon an empty | storehouse. And in a mounting en | thustasm over a truly exciting theme one of the two may plausibly have said: “If one deeply and passionately {loves reading—why, nothing can real- Iy happen to him.” A large state- {ment, but more than half true, isn't |it? Such love is the supreme goal of | reading. they agree, an agreement means of ja flaming | them say achieving it. interest can do it, one of 1 Interest set a-going at |t rt ‘and sedulously nourished throughout.
