The sunset-like of dol phin, Mr. Haweis may le ex- plained on the theory that in its last few minutes of life the fish runs through the whole gamut of emotions of which it is capable. although 1 explanation may demand more m tal activity than usually is credited 10 a fish. At the lower zonmes of ocean life Mr. Haweis explained. where su light does not penetrate and ever: thing is in intense darkness, the | light-carrying quality becomes stead of an illusion and the phorescent fishes shed so brilliant 2 light that they actually light up the | blackness. This, he believed, may be | an evolution from the appavent light- carrying of the surface fishes who | appear as if they were inclosed in envelopes of light. The fish, he said, is one of the greatest works of art of nature. Haweis will attempt to take mov- ing pictures of undersea life, follow- ing the lead of Dr. “aul Bartsch of | the Smithsonian Institution. and after- | ward tint them in the appropriate | colors which he has noted down from observation. The most rolorful of the Hawaiian fishes bear such names as humuhumus, kalaloas, ivivis, lavhaus, ulaulas and ohu hey seliom are wepresented in collections. | Painting from nature, Mr. Lewis waid, has evolved from the representa- tion merely of still life and color to | tre added representation .f motion | and might be termed tce wroluction of stationary moving v some sacrifice of for vroduced where a slight change of posture Is seen every time the ob- | server looks at a picture. | Motion Caught by Brush, This theory he will try to carry out | in his undersea paintings, givi tt impression of the schools of fish ally in_ motion. in his African pictures, which were placed on exhibition at the Adm'ri tration Building of the National Zos Jogical Park last week, Mr. Hawei £howed the working out of this theor of art in the countenances of the native negroes. Not only the emo- tions which crossed the face of the | sitter but the slight movements of the body were caught by the brush. { “The old-fashioned human figure on | canvas simply showed the, subject sitting or standing still,” Mr! Haweis explained. “But nobody does sit or stand still unless they make a effort to do so and then they Jook natural.
