And, aa they are unusually attractive every day In the year, to say that they excel means that collections of line arts and artcrafta are superbly displayed in the most artistic arrangement that could be desired. Just home from Chicago, where I spent the greater part of two weeks in the five galleries that were devoted to the Hoosier Salon at Marshall Fields, making visits in between times and after the salon to the big annual show by artists of Chicago and its vicinity at the art Institute. latest. "The Luck of tho Bodkins" (Little, Brown).

More fun! More reputations lost and found! More doldrums smashed to smithereens! And all because a parcel of passengers aboard the liner Atlantic, bound for New York, tried with tho best intentions In the world to untangle a few misunderstandings among them, only to find they had tied everything into a hard knot. What a scramble each makes of the others' affairs, and all In the Fplrtt of helpfulness! It is all such a stale of "wheels within wheels" as the story keeps pointing out that perhaps wo cannot do better than to quote what Is on Ihe flap of tho book Jncket: "A Summer Haln," by Floyd D. Hopper of Indianapolis, won the Edward Hector memorial prize of 200 given by Mrs. KtU ward Hector of Chicago, at the twelfth annual Hoosier Salon, for the best Indiana landscape in oil by a native Indiana, man who Is a resident of the state. The painting, sympathetically handled bit of realism, with beauty of color and design, Is a Rood example of the group of artistic paintings that represented the Herron-t rained students at the salon.

It might be classified as an "American Scene" subject. CHILD'S VERSES TO THE MOON. Dear, pretty moon, tonight you make A warm a rosy light. Ploass, may I climb your velvet stairs And sit by you all night? You'd toast my knees and freckly nose; No comfort would I lack; For now and then I'd turn around To have you toast my back. Motnetimos you slide away up high To be a tiny moon.

You look like but you're not, I guess My little lost balloon. And when you're Just a thin half-slice Above the maple trees, You'd make the loveliest of swings To hang on by my knees! Indianapolis. ROSANA PHELPS. COMPLAINT. So long my eyes have looked upon A world of lea and enow, And watched the tardy laggard dawn Come grudgingly and slow, That I have almost grown to be As slothful as the sun; I sigh and shiver wearily, Whlla tasks remain udone.

My heart was made with an urging beat, And I must climb the high hills To see their gold on the eastern slope Whore dawning fast spills.

The heart that haven would Join with mine of Heaven," "Women Saints" and galleries more beautiful at the manent collections, aso a few noteworthy additions, mean that several hours might be spent to good advantage in the art museum's galleries. It is not often that one has an opportunity to see a representative group of paintngs, drawngs and etchngs by the world renowned modernist, Picasso. Such a group has been lent by the Waldenstein galleries of New York and is on view in the east octagonal gallery.

Emil Jacques, head of the art department at Notre Dame University, who won the Peter C. Rellly first prize in the twelfth Hoosier Salon, just closed, is represented with a diversified exhibition that consists of thirty-one oil paintings, some of which are works of distinction, displayed in the large east gallery. On the north wall of this gallery hangs a fine French tapestry, a loan from Mrs. George Philip Meier. A woodland scene, the tapestry Is of such dimensions that it covers a large part of the wall.

Two small bronzes, on high pedestals at either side, are harmonous notes. Water Colors and Silver. A representative group of water colors by members of the California Water Color Society will be found In sculpture court, displayed on both sides of four big rectangular screens and also hung on the south wall. Effectively arranged in six large exhibition cases along the south side of sculpture court are fifty-three pieces of early American silver that have been sent to the Herron Institute as a long-time loan from the Mabel Brady Garvin collection in the fine arts gallery of Yale University. The gray of the silver shows effectively against a light gray-blue textile that drapes the shelves of the glass cases.

The fifth international exhibition of lithography and wood engraving, displayed to advantage in the small space afforded by the print room on the first floor, should be visited today, the closing Sunday for the print show. The collection is part of the big exhibit that was assembled by the Chicago Art Institute and displayed there earlier In the season. It includes representative examples of prints from Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Czechoslovakia, France, Germany, Great Britain, Holland, Hungary, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Poland and Switzerland, to- Then taking a quick look when pictures were being hung for the other annual show by the conservative wing, the Chicago Painters' and Sculptors' organization, at the Chicago galleries, also viewing two lively, modern exhibits at the Arts Club in the Wrigley building, ona of which was comprised of oil paintings, prints and drawings by Caroline Durieux. now in Mexico, whose work was said to have created a sensation In New York. Happy to Be Back Home.

On a bitterly cold evening I made a long trip by bus to see a one-man show by Sadie Lowes at the Drake Hotel. (I went there chiefly because Mrs. Lowes was formerly of Indianapolis and was encouraged to go on with her art study when well along in middle age, because her first picture was accepted by an early Hoosier Salon Jury), an exhibit that included her latest work of distinction in design and color, also her early paintings of still life that seemed to give but little promise of Mrs. Lowes's recent fine achievements and her rapid advancement under able teachers well, aa I started to say, a few paragraphs back, I have been pretty well fed up on artists' pictures in big galleries. And so it was with the satisfaction of getting back home to our own little Herron museum, that I looked into every gallery upstairs and on the first floor, where not only pictures and sculpture may be seen, but all the varied examples of art crafts, arranged for display with consummate skill.

There is a general effect of distinction that comes through this artistic arrangement of art objects a sort of sympathetic feeling for beauty, that is too subtle to be put into words that places the Herron art museum just a little ahead of any art gallery that I have ever visited. Interesting Display at Herron. Tbe late January and early February exhibitions fill the Herron museum to overflowing with varied circuited displays, while rearrangement of some of the groups from per NEW BOOKS RECEIVED.

A Lively Coast Scene. "Bathers on Pacific" is a lively coast scene, with three figures In gay bathing suits. "Flirtation on the Bench" plays up the nursemaid theme, lent in a different setting from the usual one.

"Summer Reflection, showing a calm sea, patnted In high key, with a nude bather in one of the two row-boats, has beauty of delicate color tones. "High Water," "Other Crest" and "Other Rock" are among the best of his coast marines painted on the Pacific. Among titles of other paintings are: "Sirens," "Under the Fruit Trees," "Hewing Out the Grotto." "Aeolian Harp," "Hug Point (Oregon coast)," "Mussel Pickers," "Old Boat House" with beauty of color arrangement "Mystery Cave" and "God's Country." Mr. Jacques was born in Belgium. Paintings Uniformly Mounted.

The California water colorists show good-sized paintings, uniformly mounted with wide white mats, and unframed. Among the outstanding pictures are: "Toast to Mencken," an artistic bit of design in form and color.

Precisely why, you do not know, but from the start your sympathies are definitely enlisted on tho slda of Monty. And so you pity him deeply when from morning to night he does nothing but comb pcoplo out of his hair who want him to be an actor; when the motion picture magnate finally turns against him and looks at him "as if he might have been a beetle In hla salad;" you even feel for him when his gallant effort to spenk French tickles his nose! And even If his love affair had been brought about by so trifling a matter as his squsshlng a wasp for Gertrude with a teaspoon, on a picnic, his affections were none the less genuine. Indeed he becomes little short of heroic when Mr.

This may well explain why, when Monty Bodkin, breaking tho quiet of a Riviera Hotel writing- room, asked Ivor to spell "sciatica, he decided that Monty was a customs' spy. Ivor's conscience was not clear. He had just been told by his sister-in-law that his wife Grayre expected him to smuggle a necklace into America, Liner Sails For U. S.

Not on the pussenger list but essential to this list, of protagonists. Is Albert Pensemaivh. 'to a Wodehouse fun this tella more than enough. To all others, 'Oh, come ye disconsolate.

Plot Is Involved. P. G. Wodehouse could not have summed it up better himself. For the plot is so Involved that one wonders at just what point the humorist started and fcideed, having put it In such a nnarl, how he finally extricated himself to write out tins delicious piece of foolery for our supreme amusement! Surely It is done in quite masterly fashion.

Tho charm of the Wodehouse books is their restraint. The humor is kept well In hand, so that all the hilarity is on the part of the reader. The story's ehar-seters are in deadlv earnest. There Is no horse piny. But there Is a continual knocking down and pinning back of a multitude of ears from start to finish.

Always Mr. Wodehouse atnpa far this side of ribaldry and Indecency. His stories are cloister-clean. Genius for Finding Trouble. There Is so much theater crowded Into these 300 psges that the reader is constantly confronted with Its box office possibilities.

Words fail us when we try to describe Monty Bodkin. Suffice It to say that he has a genius for Retting into trouble, just as Albert Peasemarch had for putting people there. Indeed, Monty often mused 'on "the grave soclnl problem which such men as Albert Peasemarch presented. You could not murder them. "You could not even have them shut up In asylums.

Yet, left to run around loose, what a gangrene In the body politic they were." He seemed to picture the world a vast cauldron of soup, with good men like himself forever standing on the. brink and forever being shoved Into it by the Albert Peaaemarrhes. Surely Monty's was one long tailspin, sided and abetted by this Peasemarch steward and a silly little stuffed Mickey Mouse, which Monty had quite blamelessly presented to his fiancee, on the first day out.

Representative William L. Nelson of Missouri wound up to a climax as he outlined the farm problem to the House. He depicted Ihe future of wornout farms, and drew a scene in which a farmer was turning over his land to his son. The son, said Melson, replied, "Thanks for the farm.

I regard it as one of the best print exhibits ever displayed here. It is regretted that space cannot be given to 'a detailed review. Designers of prints sometimes suggest more color in their black and white pictures than is put upon canvas by painters. Many of them work imaginatively. And many who were influenced by the modern school Interpret life vividly and, frequently, with humor.

The international print exhibition will be followed by an exhibit of drawings by European old masters, whose insurance value Is more than ten thousand dollars. Emil Jacques does his best painting in large figure compositions that are suited to mural decoration. One of these, the largest canvas In the exhibition of oil pointings of different sizes its dimentions being 50x 40 inches Is entitled "Magdalen." The repentant woman Is kneeling, her body bowed toward the floor so that her long red hair falls forward and completely covers her face. The scarlet scarf that partly drapes her body and falls on the floor in irregular folds, gives rich color to the composition. The setting is a cathedral interior, not shadowy, but filled with light, the darker masses painted In pale green that, contrasts with the drapery on the half nude figure.

Beautiful Jacques Subject. A second large figure subject, "Disciple of Terpsichore," is even richer in color. The brunette dancer, seated on a high stool draped with yellow-brown velvet, wears a bright yellow slip, banded with scarlet. The face Is turned to the right so that the jet black hair is an effective note in the composition. A wall frieze, back of the head, is of Greek origin and Its groups of figures are balancing notes in form and color contrast to the brilliantly painted yellow and brown textiles that fall as crumpled drapery at the feet of the dancer.

This Is the most beautiful example from Mr. Jacques's brush, aside from the three religious paintings, "Queen the record James W. Wadsworth- of New York.
