There is at Mac- beth's the annual show of "Intimate Paintings." The object of these exhibitions is set forth in a foreword being to paint with transparent glazes and scumbles over a light ground. It la difficult to give with such a technique the feeling of direct contact with nature. Mr. Ilctherington has succeeded. His landscapes record things which he has seen, which he has felt.

Ho may see landscape through the veil of the art of thirty years ago. We all see nature through a veil save here and there a pioneer, like Menzel or Claude Monet. The essential is to see through the veil and not merely to record what another has seen. His work is uneven canvasses bV Carlsen which I have ever seen. In the background is nn old painted carved panel representing the "Descent from the Cross." Against this background so rich and suggestive is a group of still-life.

The whole is in pale, delicate colors, with a note of stronger red running through the picture as a thread of silver whs used In the old tapestries. He has another stlll-llfe, "Roman Howl," which is characteristic of his art. All the other paintings are landscnpes, those by Carlsen being the more decorative, those by Rcdfield the more realistic. There is in the back gallery a mi-nerb easel painting by Puvis ile by Mr. Macbeth.

He writes: "The large size of pictures usually to be found in exhibitions was the fact behind the idea of our first showing, three years ago, of those "Intimate Paintings" which are capable of the familiar acquaintance of home surroundings.

epoch collected. We are becoming more democratic In feeling. Gradually we are beginning to loathe all the miserable mess with which the rich have surrounded themselves for which the Eighteenth Century is in large measure responsible. The rich ever since have been gathering things together, things which were worthless as art and which made those who did not own them embarrassed in their presence. The Eighteenth Century, especially in France, was an artificial Those of us who live in the smaller New England towns are beginning to realize that there was an industrial art of the peasant class in rough New England which fundamentally is greater than that of France of the same epoch.

I refer to tho period of pine furniture. Could the Greeks of the highest period of their artistic accomplishment come back to earth I am sure that they would feel, as I do, that the bulk of the furniture of Colonial America is greater as art than such work as the desk of Louis XV executed by Biesener which is now in the Louvre. It was necessary that the King should impress the people with his magnificence. If the peasant should feel at home in the King's presence there would be danger of the peasant's questioning the divinb origin of kings. French art of the Eighteenth Century is merely the pomp and circumstance necessitated by the political situation.

Today the political situation has changed. It is now the policy of rulers to mix freely with the people. It should also be the policy of our rich men to do everything possible to diminish the gulf which at present separates classes. One of the most necessary things to do is that the rich UPKADKU (M II'S DANCE. The reception and danro of the Crusader Club, which Is made up 'of members of St.

Ten years ago I should have snld that his chances of ultimate success were poor. Yet he has succeeded where others of great talent have riillen by the wayside. He baa succeeded because of his sincerity and because he has been true to his own ideals. Each year many have gone backward. Yates has stemlily gone on.

But these dis tinctions make for class feeling. It has been a wonderful week for me Monday I went to the exhibition at the.De Zayas Gallery.

There never scapes whtcn have qualities wnicn will last. Two other artists whose work 1 have known for years are showing landscapes in the Madison Gallery, Albert Groll and Hobart Nichols. Neither has progressed as rapidly as Yates but both have advanced, and this Is the essential thing. I do not care whether my work is good or bad. Am I Improving? Am I growing In spirit and In truth? Such questions are the essentials.

The other paintings in the gallery are well chosen. It Is a good, conservative exhibition, so those desiring "thrills" should go elsewhere.

Who was ll who said there were no Bohemians in Brooklyn? mat concrete is the rule and not the exception there will be a community of interest between the rich and the poor In regard to the adornment of their homes. Silk and plush will oease to be considered as proper coverings for a wall and paintings will be valued as giving the personal touch to a wall which, unadorned, might be inexpressive of the owner's individuality. Concrete walls, a painting or two, with narrow strips of wood tacked round the edges, such surroundings as this will be within the reach of the many. The over-adorned luxurious palaces of our multi-millionaires will be felt as ugly as they really are. This is the vision which has been haunting me for years, of simpler homes in which a few choice works of art will take tho place of all the Junk which litters the dwelling of today.
