Modern Art and Old,
Masters In Exhibit at
The Hotel Fontenelle
!
By I.ETA MOORE MEYER.
A first view of the exhibition at
the Hotel Fontenelle of pictures
from the Vose galleries of Boston,
brought hy the Society of Fine
Arts, is like the swinging of a pen
' dulum. There is "The . Lone Cy
press" of Monterey Cal., by Elliott
Daingerfield, brilliant in color, for
the artist is probably our most bril
liant colorist, all reality; and then
the imaginary "Rosalind and Cecil
ia" of Albert P.. Ryder, who is al
ways an intimate friend and who
thouchf nf rnmnrtsitimi. ieeVmtr Hand
passion and of color only as a har
monious accompaniment. There is
"Late Afternoon," an ultra-charac-'teristic
Fritz Thaulow with the
swirling water he always does, plus
lovely feeling and harmony which
he has not always attained, seem
ing to express turbulence of nature
and. of soul beneath a calm exterior.
Then there are "Le Soleil Couch
ant," and "Etang," by Jules Dupre,
all calm and serene and homey.
We find Sir Douglas Wilkie's
portrait of King William IV, reeking
with the atmosphere of courts and
pageants, intrigue and passing plea
sure and magnificence, --and then
"Sun and Shadow," by F. W. Ben
son, showing quiet home life, a pic
ture, of the artist's two daughters,
and 'again "Boy-JVith Pigs," by
George Morland, with - its simple
barnyard life. A most interesting
contrast are W. D. "Hamilton's por
traits of little R. C. Vose, jr.,
late in subject, fashion and treat
ment, and the little fellow's ances
tors, "Daniel Rea." by Joseph
Badger and "Mrs. Daniel Rea and
Daughter.'by J. Singleton Copley,
both painted more than 100 years
ago.
As 'the pendulum swings back to
renter we realize by what widely
divergent methods, real artcan be
attained. Many of the ge'ms of the
collection have not been mentioned
as further study of them is neces
sary for their discussion. '
Divorce
Courts
' Evelena P. Riles filed 'in district
court a cr6ss-petition to the divorce
petition of her husband, Roger E.
Riles. She charges that he associ
ates with other women and compels
her to economize so that he can get
money to spend on the other women.
' Zella Diltz was awarded a divorce
from Bradley Diltz on the ground
of nonsupport and restored to her
maiden name, Hickerson, by Judge
Wakeley in divor.ee court.
William Fifield, on allegations of
extreme cruelty, was granted a di
vorce from Marie Fifield by Judge
Wakeley in divorce court.
Millie Donnell, charging"her hus
band, Charles, with extreme cruelty,
was granted a divorce by-Judge Es
telle in divorce court and restored
to her maiden name, Branson.

Boys Under 18 Can No Longer

general working knowledge of farm
ing. Most of them are from this
state. One is from New Zealand.
