John Golden's Little Theater, an or
ganization fostering only the best
in dramatic presentation. The I.'ni

of $350 for use of the manuscript,

the policy, according to Ramsay, of

his own Invention, the "fountain

i Nearly every fraternity and sor

I been visited, according to Mr.
i Pape, and approximately five hun
I dred portraits havo been made,
j The surprising tiling about this ar
tist is that he completes a picture
in from ten to fifteen minutes.
Hence, bis claim to being the
' "greatest living artist." He con
cedes thai Rembrandt was a pretty
good painter but It took the old
1 ertlst fourteen months lo paint a
picture that he could do in eight

Believes Pictures Priceless
"Why. in two weeks you will not '
