A notable omission from the foregoing list is that of art exhibi- tions.

Here is a boun some one lo wake up and get busy.

Why are not the Academicians in council with the promoters of the new building enterprise, making dates for next year’s spring and fall exhibitions? Such an arrangement might solve the art problem in practically the same way that Paris solves it—by giving a popular show on a grand scale, in a place associated with public gatherings, on a self-supporting basis. And then, how beautiful it would be to see pugilism, which al- ready contributes officially to the revenues of the State, extend a belping fist to a struggling sister art! + IMPORTING GENUINE ANTIQUES.

Shakespeare’s birthplace, TLeon-| ardo da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa,” nll the tombs and obelisks of ancient Egypt, now threatens to carry of | @ guaranteed mediaeval English | castle. The fact that a national subscription to “save this historic landmark” has been tried ineffec- tually, lends color to the story. One or two suspects have said “You ean search me.” But the remark that “Any one who has sense enough to make a million dollars would have too much sense to do such a thing as that,” is not necessarily reassuring. The proper place to get antiques is where they grow. Even then there is danger of counterfeits, in the case of small-sized works of art. It has been urged, moreover, in vindication of the horse sense of col- Jectors who buy statues by the ton and paintings by the square foot, | that had the “Mona Lisa” panel been as big as a barn door it never would have been stolen. From the early American custom of appropriating old-world names and fashions we have progressed to bu ing titles and collect- ing art. Bringing over Tattershall Castle, brick by brick, and set- ting it up on Long Island as good as new—or rather, perhaps, as good as old—is quite naturally the next step.
