b e S T e FANOUS SCULPTOR GIVES TALK HERE| Edward Potter Appears Belore High-Y Club Idward Potter, sculptor of national repute, addressed the members of the High-Y club at thelr weekly meeting, at the Y M, C. A, last evening, MHis subject was “Artists I Have Met," Before starting his talk, he gave a demonstration of sculpture by begin- ning the model of a horse, However, he did no modeling, as the time w ould not permit. He simply “palced” the clay on the armature, this being the first work of a sculptor in modeling R statue, He explained the use of thé tools and gave directions for starting a model, such as building the frame- work and kind of clay to be used, He sald the form of clay called plastaline is the best for this work. After finishing the preliminary work on the model he told of his ex- periences as a student and also of several well known artists and sculp- tors. Mr. Potter was a student at Am- herst college for ahbout a year and then went to the Boston Art museum. In those days one could not mature in art at a college. Among his teach- ers was a Mr. Crownshield, a great student and teacher of art. He taught the students to draw in chalk and ink, which was little done in those days. At the time of the Franco-Prussian war artists were very highly regard- ed, a fact which Mr. Potter {llustrated by a story of a famous French artist who took his family and his paintings and fled to Paris when there seemed to be danger of the arrival, at his country home, of the Germans. 'He hid his medals under the door-step. Gets Medals Back, The artist went back to the villa in a few days, but the-Germans were al- ready there; they were dividing his medals when he arrived. He told them who he was and, at the request of the leader of the detachment, the medals were returned to him with an apology and the explanation that the Germans were making war on France, not on the artists. This gives us a different idea of the Germans from those conceived during the late war. He said that people seem to have the idea that sculptors lead an easy working a few hours a day and ng a good time . the rest of it, This is not so. As an example he told of the work which St. Gaudens put with every BOY’S SUIT BOYS’ SUT All new models, all colors, sizes 8 to 17.

They should keep at it." A very interesting story was one which he told of his own experience, He had worked for six monghs on the figure of a horse, One day a lady came in, 8he regarded the model carefully and then sald, “Wonderful! Truly wonderful! But what does it all amount to Funny Opinions., At another time, a lady discovered a halr on this model of a horse, This was not strange, as Mr, Potter had been working from a llving horse, But the lady tock a different view of ft, “Oh, T know how you make Yyour models of horses,” she said, “You kill a horse and then cover him over."” Mr. Potter thought she was fooling, but she actually thought that he had covered a dead horse with the clay. He told many other interesting in- cidents of famous sculptors, which added a great deal to his demonstra- tion of the modelling of the horse. He spoke of granite sculpture, of the first bronze statues, and he gave the members of the club much interest- ing information upon the subject.

W, Planters' March 24.—The association of Papua, con- tending that lack of sympathy on the part of the federal government is killing Papua's industries, ¢ished a pamphlet to set out the true position of affalrs in Papua with a view of obtaining more sympathetie treatment for the ploneers of PPapua and its industries,” Compulsory trading with Australia, “brought about through lack of shipping facilities, loads our indus- tries with very high costs on import- ed goods,” the pamphlet said. ‘“Re- fore the war our rice, cotton goods and many other articles were brought to us directly from the world mar- kets at a landed cost not more—per- haps less—than the same goods could he landed in Australla, Now we have to pay the landed cost in Australia, plus freight and carriage from Aus- tralia to Papua, and Australian agents' and speculators’ profits, This in- sures a valuable trade for Australia, but s a burden on Papua's indus- tries."” BIG EXHIBIT OF RUGS Display Will Be has pub- Palestine Oricntal Shown at Hebrew School Hall on Sunday, March 26. The Marbadia, Inc, will place on exhibition in this city on Sunday, March 26, a number of Palestine Ori- ental rugs, the product of a Iales- tinian workman. These rugs, made in Palestine, carry distinctive Pales- tinian designs which have attracted wide attention in America.

The object of the exhibition is to place before the people of this city actual products of the new indus- trial life in Palestine. In many cities where the exhibitions have been held numerous orders have come in rugs, and in three instances churches have purchased rugs mainly because of their wonderful quality and design.
