Paintings and Drawings
By Prominent Artists
Are Exhibited
Aluminum has been utilized as a
painting medium by Charles S.
Chapman, New York artist and il
lustrator, who has painted a study
of Mt. Hood and another of the
Oregon Woods upon thin sheets of
4 this metal for Wm. G. Purcell, Port
land architect, and his wife, Edna
Purcell. These studies are unique
among a group by this artist, which
appear in a collection loaned to the
school of architecture and allied arts
for exhibitions, by Mr. Purcell.
Aii unusual Christmas card by
this same artist conveys the author’s
greetings, “Pour Carloads of Christ
mas Cheer,” to Mrs. Purcell, upon
a freight waybill. Attached with
the waybill to a large sheet of paper
is an illustration by Chapman of an
engine drawing four freight cars
through a magnificent and vividly
colored mountain gorge.
Chapman’s illustrations have ap
peared in the Country Gentleman,
Ladies’ Home Journal, Woman’s
Home Companion, hnd other maga
zines ,and his paiuty(gfs have been
placed in the Metropolitan Museum
of Fine Arts, New York.
Impressionistic studies of the
northern lakes by Harry W. Rubins,
interior decorator of Minneapolis,
Minnesota, also appear in this ex
hibition, which opened yesterday at
the little arts gallery. “Moose Pas
ture” is a small study in oil, show
ing silver-white birches against a
background of soft purple and gray
brush and sky. Rubins paints as a
pastime, and his pictures are mainly
suggestive of the subjects which he
portrays.
In direct contrast to the Work of
Rubins, is that of Frederick D. Cal
houn, also of Minneapolis, Calhoun
uses the Minnesota lakes and woods
as inspiration for his pictures, as
does Rubins, but his paintings are
very clear cut and at times seem
even ^lightly stiff; His soft blend
ings of color are beautiful, however.
“Palisades” is a study of blue lake
against cliffs turned orange by the
reflected light of the sun. As in
all of his studies which appear in
this exhibit, the units of the picture
are sharply and exactly brought out,
with a soft richness of color that is
rather startling.
. “Old Chicago,” by Albert Floury,
* which portrays the lake front, and
“Off Land’s End,” by George N.
Esy, the oil study of a sailing ves
sel in which the color brown pro
dominates, complete the exhibit
loaned by Mr. Purcell.
A group of architectural drawings
by Bernard Maybeck, San Francisco
architect, arc also on exhibition at
this time. Studies for tho Phoebe
Hoarst memorial building at Berke
ley, California, comprise tho main
subject matter for the collection of
his work. The drawings range from
chalk and pastel studies done in
the modern manner, which give the
preliminary atmospheric effect, to
minute and finished renderings in
color.
Mr. Maybcck was architect for
tho San Francisco exposition in
1915, and some of his drawings for
tho fine arts palace of the exposi
tion are included in this group.
The present exhibit will remaip in
the gallery for the remainder of
the week, it was announced by John
A. Walquist, member of tho exhibi
tion committee.

Oregon.” The leature was illus
trated with colored slides.
Jt great variety of flowers and
plants growing’ in Oregon were
shown, many of the pictures- having
been taken by Professor Sweetser
on his state-wide trip*. The grow
ing extinction of many of the flow
ers was emphasized by the speaker,
who urged the club to do all it
could to discourage people from
pulling up the plants h(r their roots.

Kelly, Willos To Hang
In Capitol City Friday
(By United Press)
SALEM, Ore., April 17.—An un
easy feeling that this may be the
last week of life, today continues
to instill horror into Ellsworth Kel
ley and James Willos, condemned
convicts. *
Four reprieves and appeals to
higher courts have snatched the pair
from legal'death several times. The
last time was last Friday, when
Governor I. L. Patterson grafted a
reprieve lasting until midnight
Thursday, just a few hours before
their special execution. The su
preme court, as though to refute
claims they favored commuting the
sentences to life imprisonment, met
late yesterday upon request of the
governor, and today had sent him a
statement refusing to make any rec
ommendation.
Governor Patterson refuses to
comment on the case.
Unless further respite is granted
by the governor, Willos and Kelley
will hang early next Friday.
Committee Appointed

Famous Artist
To Sing May 18
Eugene on Farewell Tour
Of Schumann-Heink
Madame Ernestine Scliumann
IToink, contralto, will appear in con
cert at the McArthur Court, May
18. As the fourth artist on the
A. S. U. O. schedule for the current
year, Madame Schunran - Ileink’s
farewell program will be the grand
finale of a concert series which in
cluded Friedman, the Polish pianist,
Enesco, the versatile Rumanian vio
linist, and the exquisito ensemble
of the English singers.
Madame Schumann-Heink’s fare
well tour of the United States, the
culmination of fifty-one years on
the world’s greatest opera and con
cert platforms, began in the Middle
West in October and has included
the leading cities of the United
States. She will cross the continent
shortly after her appearance in Eu
gene for a farewell appearance at
the Metropolitan of New York. It
was there that*the great contralto
made her first American successes
and there she will sin;# the Wag
nerian roles for which she is re
nowned.
This amazing woman, who at six
ty-six, is still in vigorous health
and travels the 25,000 miles of her
farewell tour without even a per
sonal maid or secretary, has become
the idol of Americans not only be
cause of her genius, but also beca use
of her human sympathy. Madame
Sehumann-Heink has none of the
proverbial “artistic temperature.”
In fact she tersely remarks:
I haya no sympathy with these
temperamental artists. Just because
they have a cultivated gift, why
should that mako them any better
than the rest of the world? There
is no excuse for such nonseSse and
it is usually a pose. To my way

of thinking temperament is simply
an indication of bad breeding.”
It is her contempt for superficiali
ty.and admiration for the underlying
emotions of life that has given
Madame Sehumann-Heink the in
tense dramatic power which lesser
artists admire.
Madame Schumaun-Heink's Eu
gene program which will be an
neuhced ip detail later, will include
old favorite songs and opera arias.
She will be assisted by Florence
Hardeman, former violinist with
Sousa’s band, who has been re-en

for five consecutive seasons.

concert must present their studont

Why Americans excel
iThe genius of America is restless. It is always striving
to master new problems; and when new problems are
solved, it advances to others. It is never satisfied.
For that reason we are constantly moving forward into
new fields of discovery—insatiable, always demanding
something newer, something better, something different.
Nothing demonstrates this more remarkably than the
advertisements you read. They cover the entire range
of human requirements—from the absolute necessities
of life to the most refined luxuries. Yet they are con
stantly changing. This continual change means fresh
material, fresh ideas, a stimulus to new endeavor.
The moment j^ou cease to find interest in the adver
tisements of thfe offerings of industry, of commerce, of
art—-that moment you will begin to retrogress, and the
world will slip away from you.
Reading advertisements is looking
forward
