Death Warrant to
, Modern
- Art
London, Dec. 11. Modern artists
have signed the death sentence of
modern art. A gloomy expert
prophesies that within a century
there will be next o nothing left
of it. Its masterpieces" are rotting
and cracking and turning black. The
glory ot lurner is passing, vvmsi
ler.'s future is dakening, along with
hid oietures. Millet is suffering the
same fate. So is Theodore Rous
seau. There are others, G. F. Watts
and Ingres among xthem. but these
names suffice to show what a griev
ous loss the world of art must face.
The people who declare "Wat mod
ern art is aecaaent are nearer uic
truth than they guess. The outlook
for it is dark and there is no future
for the futurists.
It, is all a matter of materials.
The modern artist does not study
the ctiemistry ol color but relies on
the commercial chemist to keep his
palttte supplied. The secrets f the
old masters are lost tolnm. Ana
so the great painters of the Ren
aissance will survive wnue most oi
our 20th century art loses any repu
tation it jnay gain, the men ot
today . are j reversing the age old
maxim- tnat art is long ana time
fleetig.
The expert who predicts that un
less a big change takes place in the
composition . of artists' colors noth
ing will be left of modern art in
100 years tune is a Frenchman. He
points out that in the Louvre Theo
dore Rousseau's works are -turning
black and that Millet's are also de
caying. . He mentions the famous
"Angelufe," painted in 18S9. which is
starting to. crack, and lhe Hay-
binder" (1856), which is losing tone.
Color Mixing Art Is Dead.
A tour of the British national gal
lery confirms this statement Some
of the works of Sir Joshua Rey
nolds are cracking and a"portrait by
Sir William Allen of Sir Walter
Scott, painted in 1832, is black and
shrivelle-d.
"The art of mixing colors, said
a gallery official, "is practically dead.

Miss Katherine Reynolds' daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. E. M. Reynolds,
who is a student at the University of
Nebraska, is planning to spend the
holiday season in Omaha with her
parents. Miss Reynolds is a mem
ber of-the Achoth sorority at the uni
versity. X. v
Today artists are largely dependent
on the color man."
The old masters took extraordi
nary pains to get permanent results.
Da Vinci, besides preparing his own
colors always worked in his studio
with his windows shut to keep out
the dust and crawled iu anc' out by
a specially designed dustproof door.
Many ot the old masters refused
to use oils, preferring the white, 1
eggs and paste. It was the Flemish
school, led by Jan van Ey:k, who
changed ove from the tempera
method to the modern use of oils.
"What have artists themselves to
say about if?' was a question asked
-George J. Coates, already famous as
a portrait painter, vho has made a
study of this 'question of materials.
He regretfully agreed with , the
French critic. ,
"It is undoubtedly a fact, he said,
"that many modern paintings will
not live, not because thev. are not
fine art, but because their colors will
go black or the. paint will crack, Tr
both. This is due, to the use of
shopmade pigments and ignorance
of the mechanical side of art. I he
Louvre is by no ( means the only
French gallery affected. The same
may be said of the modern works in
the Luxeinb&urg.
"To turn , to the British National
gallery, it is a deep regret to me that
the glory of Turner is going. This
was realized when the authorities
unearthed from the cellars some of
the master's original ketches and
studies. Compared with the work
already on exhibition they were
much fresher "and- plainly' proved
that the glowing and wonderful col
ors of the bigger works were losing
their pristine beauty. Again I know
of a case of a picture sold to the
Sydney gallery in Australia by an
English artist some 25 years ago.
That picture had to be sent back to
the artist some 20 years after to be
renovated. ,
v Pre-Raphaelites Will .Survive.
"On the .other hand, the pre-Ra-phaelites,
.who were pre-eminently
craftsmenas well as great artists,
used colors which have not deterior
ated. Their pictures are as fresh to
day as when they were painted. Hol
man v Hunt, Madox Brown and
Burne-JonesN have not lost their
glory. They understoodthe chemis
try of color and .were very careful
about the pigments they used.
"Sir Joshua Reynolds tried in vain
to 1 discover the secrets of the old
masters. He spoiled quite a number
of .valuable old Italian works by
scraninc off the varions lavers of
paint to find how they had been put
on, but the fact that many of his
own works have decayed proves that
he failed. To -others may be left the
interesting task of trying to guess
the financial loss involved in the de
cay of modern masterpieces. It is
enough tp mention it here as one of
the minor evils of the situation. The
loss will run into millions of dollars.
It will fall on shoulders well able to
bear it. ; But the loss to posterity of
the art of today will be far greater.
The interpretation of life and the
aims and aspirations of any period
find their highest expression in con
temporary art. If that art disap
pears we become "to the future an
age without a voice." New York

Use Cottage Cheese.
CottaRe cheese Is richer in pro
tein than most meats and- is very
much cheaper. Every pound con
tains more than three ounces of pro
tein, the source of nitrogen for body
building. ,v
It is a valuable source of energy
although the , proportion is not so
high as iu foods with more fat It
follows that its value in this respect
can be greatly increased by serving
it with cream, as is eo commonly
