Continued From Fourteenth Page Notes of Art and Artists — — other of James Topping, and & charming lit- tle plate of a “Duich Settler’s Farm.” The exhibition as a whole is retrospective, comprising groups of Miss Levy's prints from the time of her first showing to today. The group of four of African sculpture was done in 1929; some of the portraits and Kentucky sub- jects are most recent. She has exhibited in Paris and London, as well as in the leading cities of this country. A T Gordon Dunthorne’s is now to be seen an interesting exhibition of early litho- graphs, representing some of the leading lithog- saphers of the early part of the eighteenth eentury, when lithography as an art was ex- tremely young. This exhibition is particularly significant at this time on account of the ex- hibition of lithographs by Joseph Pennell at the Iribrary of Congress and also the general révival of interest in the art witnessed by the Tithographs of Albert W. Barker shown at the Dunthorne Gallery earlier in the season, the Itthographs by Herbert Dunton now at the Sears-Roebuck Gallery, and those by Wayman Adams of Negro life in the South. Next Wednesday afternoon, January 20, at 4:30 o'clock, Mr. Dunthorne will give a lecture ‘in the gallery on “Lithographs,” illustrated by Lexamples in the exhibition. This lecture will be free to the public. HE outstanding event during the coming week in local art circles will be the dinner given in honor of Frederick P. Keppel by the Washington Society of the Fine Arts in appre- ciation of what Mr Keppel has done for the advancement of art in this country, advocat- ing, in his capacity as president of the Car- negie Corporation, generous grants in this par- ticular fleld. The representatives of the lead- ing art institutions and organizations with re- fated aims will be in attendance at the dinner. Prederick P. Keppel, it will be remembered, Axaes of an art-loving family, his father, Fred- ierl'ck Keppel, having established, years ago, the #well known firm of Keppel & Co., print dealers fn New York, which his brother, David Keppel, continues. It has been truly said that to a eat extent knowledge and love of art has g:en built, in this and other countries, around ghe dealers’ establisments of this type. At the time of the Great War Mr. Keppel was a dean g: Columbia University. H: was called here to cshington to become Assistant Secretary of War, and later, after the conclusion of peace, x; elected president of the Carnegie Corpora- @1, which office, with all its splendid oppor- suaities for usefulness and great responsi- ties, he still holds. For some years now he been not only a member of the bcard of directors of the American Federation of Arts, but its first vice president. At the coming dinner Mr. Keppel will be the only speaker, His subject will be “Art and the Layman.” IN recent years it has become quite the cus- \ tom for artists to make their own Christmas cards, with the result that those within he friendly circle are especially fortunate. In the exhibition held by the Society of Miniature Painters several etchings were shown by well known etchers which had come into existence in this way. At the most recent Christmas sea- son a number of our local artists enriched their friends in like manner. Benson Moore’s Christ- mas card was a charming etching of a lioness, an enviable possession; Ruel P. Tolman’s was an etching entitled “Our Side Yard,” a lovely little bit of landscape beautifully rendered. Bertha Noyes sent with her Christmas greet- ings & miniature reproduction of the drawing of a child's head by which she was so well rep- resented in the Washington Water Color Club’s annual exhibition, and Hattie Burdette sent a reproduction of her delightful little painting of a bit of Washington showing the dome of St. Matthew’s Church over the housetops. Florence Berryman's card was drawn by her gifted father, Clifford XK. Berryman—Scrooge and Tiny Tim holding a Christmas day conversa- tion; while Charles Moore honored his friends with a half-tone reproduction of one of the two groups designed by James Earle Fraser for the entrance to Rock Creek Parkway, beginning at the Lincoln Memorial, with the statement that “with the completion of the Arlington Bridge and its related structures what was a dream just 30 years ago will become a reality—the largest and finest conception ever executed by men, indeed, and a presage also of larger and finer things to come in the development of the National Capital”—something to treasure and to recall. HE exhibitions at the Arts Club change to- day. The gallery will be taken over for an exhibition of oil paintings by Frank Niepold, a member of the Arts Club and of the Land- scape Club; whereas in the reception rooms will be shown oils and black and white draw- ings by Herbert Hicks, a member of the Wash- ington Water Color Club and of the Land- scape Club. AINTINGS by Edna Webb Miles of this city have lately been shown in the studio of the District of Columbia League of American Pen Winter Is Most Trying to Dairymen INTERTIME, despite its aid in preserva- tion of milk, is the most trying time the dairymen encounter in the Northern States, where sub-zero weather is common. The difficulties encountered are many. First and foremost is the question of freezing. Fre- quently milk which leaves the farm in a fluid state will be frozen in from the sides of the 40-guart cans as much as three or four inches. Before this milk can be dumped into the weigh can to give the farmer credit for his weight it is necessary to melt the milk out with a steam hose, which adds to the weight the farmer gets. There is always a certain amount of the frozen milk which stays in the weigh can, and the scales are constantly ad- justed to take care of this. The use of the live steam in a room with open doors through which the cold air enters freely results in a fog so thick that a worker is unable to see more than two feet or so from himself. Milk frozen in this manner does not yield a fair sample for the determining of butter fat, and as payment is based upon butter fat con- tent as well as by weight, the problem becomes difficult. Occasionally farmers are unable, because of snow, to bring their milk in for two or three days, and as most States bar out milk over 24 hours old at the milk station delivery time, the farmers frequently resort to trickery to sell their milk. Because it is sweet, they are able to add part of the old milk to their fresh milk and withhold a smaller portion of the fresh to be worked in the following day. By this means after several days the entire de- layed milk is worked in. Learns Safety Lesson IWell ENNSYLVANIA, with its tremendous coal inining activittes has learned the lesson of safety so well that of the 24 States produc- ing coal (or 25, with Pennsylvania listed twice under the anthracite and hard coal cate- gories), the Keystone State ranks sixth in safety among the bituminous mines and twelfth among the hard coal mines. Texas and Mich- igan reported no fatalities, while Oklahoma, with 17 per million man hours worked, had the worst record by far for deaths. Alabama, which ranked eighth in low fa- talities, was first in low non-fatal accidents. Women, Stoneleigh Court. They consisted of portraits, figure studies, landscapes and still life, and testified both to the artist’s zeal and industry. Mrs. Miles exhibited in this same improvised gallery a year or two &go, but her late showing consisted exclusively of recent work. HE Society of Washington Artists’ forty-first annual exhibition, which opened in the Corcoran Gallefy on January 1 to continue through the 31st, should no: be overlooked because of having been reviewed. This is the kind of exhibition that should be seen more than once to be fully appreciated, and it is of sufficient interest to reward repeated visits. Included in the catalogu颙®#hd showing are a number of excellent pieces of sculpture, as well as & much wider representation in paintings. @ IDENT HOOVER'S portrait was recently painted in the White House by Wayman Adams, formerly of Muncie, Ind,, now of New York. Mr. Adams, having an enviable reputa= tionlas an American portrait painter, was com= nnss}oned by the National Academy of Design through its president, Cass Gilbert, to paint for the academy & portrait of the President. The commission was approved by the Fine Arts Commission of Washington and Mr. Adams was graciously given sittings. Mr. Adams, it will be remembered, painted a very successful portrait of the late Joseph Pennell and of many other well known persons. He also has wide reputation as a lithographer, his lithographs of Southern scenes being espe=- cially popular at this time. For the last 15 years he has been a constant prize winner. His works are shown in the leading exhibitions. { T the Corcoran Gallery of Art, in the cases in the upper atrium, there is now to be seen a special exhibition of water colors and drawings by Mahonri M. Young. This exhibi« tion will continue through January 31, HE forty-first annual exhibition of works by members of the National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors opened on Jan= uary 1 in the galleries of the American Fine Arts Society, 215 West Fifty-seventh street, New York, to continue through January 20, Among the Washington artists represented in this exhibition are Susan B. Chase, Marguerite C. Munn, Alice L. L. Ferguson, Clara R. Saune ders and Eva Springer. A unique feature of this exhibition is an im= portant group sent over by the Women's Inter= national Art Club of London.
