As it was with that picture so it is with hundreds of other pictures of men and events that come to us in our daily newspapers and periodicals We glance at them casually and throw them aside little realizing that the story of many a photograph is tar more interesting than the photograph itself. Behind it may lay weeks of toil and privation, hair breadth escapes, or deeds of real heroism by the man who took the picture. But by the man who took the picture these are regarded. as commonplaces. They are all in the day's work.

He discussed the added difficulties which embarrass the painter from which the literary artist is free. "While good literature may plume itself in having its 'winged words speed directly to their goal, elements have entered into the picture unbidden but sometimes welcome, and others on which the artist has counted have strangely failed to register. It Is safe to say that rarely has a picture absolutely expressed the first thought of its author." The speaker makes a plea for study in the schools of the great principles of art which may be applied to all the arts in common, as to literature, music, painting, sculpture and architecture. These principles are not even taught in the art-schools, which are really places for the study of the technical problems of art and do not touclr its higher significance. Mr.

Poore closed by naming a number of the popular misconceptions of art, reconstructing the old dictum, that, beauty is into "beauty is touching uppn idealism and realism and scouting the fallacy that In painting there is "only one way." qips' iuai oetua JTuuius. wiin xvuDuer ooie ai.ijo Ladies' ppinTn Jass Lace Oxfords, with rubber $1.50 hisses- TECh Lace 0xfords. $1.50 ('Your book, 'The American ought to be In every home and ought to be read by every student of American life and history.
