English Painting Topic of Meeting A study of English pointing enjoy ed by members of the Delphian .so ciety last night at the Socajawea Inn with Miss Beatrice Yourige as leader. Three portrait artists, Hogarth, Reyn olds and Gainsborough, and two great painters of landscape. Constable and Turner! were considered. . Hogarth Is sometimes called the "father of English painting," haying revolted against the craze, for "old masters" and the so-called "grand manner" of 'painting. Reynolds ad mired It and held It up for emula- "on, Hogarth was the pugnapipus Englishman; Reynolds, the dignified genw.eman. Gainsborough developed a style of his own and has been called the most English of English artists. John Constable was the first ar tist to go into the open to paint In stead of making sketches ln tho fields and painting the pictures in his studio. A realist, he was popular in his day. Turner, now acclaimed the greatest landscape painter the world has seen; was a dreamer. His method of painting was revolutionary and ho was the laughing stock of critics of his time. Many of Turner's paintings are in this country now. Tho subject for the next mooting to be held in two wepks, will be Rus sian painting, and Mrs. E. E. Hurley will be tho supervisor. Mrs. B.

Chapter 35 AN AUTOMOBILE CRASH U A RE you going to say you didn't ' see me?" David laughed. ' "I didn't honestly. I was think (ng " i-.Kitty found sho wasn't ombar- rtiascd at meeting him. that Quite naturally she sllppod her hand through his arm in her old manner iof greeting, that she wns glad, glad to see him! , "Tea?" he asked. . And presently they wore sitting at their tablo behind tlio chlnti hung window. And sho was asklri: him about the new Btory. ' His stay in the country had agreed With liim, or perhaps his work le was ruddy, heavier, alriimehsely cheerful. 1 Ho told her that tho host thing i that over had happened to him was "Jungle's" downfall. Sho told him nothing of her own troubled state pt mind. Somoljnw with' him, she forgot it He'd come in only for the day. HO was taking the six o'clock bus back. "David, you'ro really happy?" Kitty asked impulsively. Ho nodded, smiling. "In a' fool's way, perhaps If this story isn't any good, I'm through. But I'm getting a kick out of it." Sho walked hack to. the Tudor Anns, musing on David's work and eagerness ln it, which had been Bo lacking In his labor with the "Jungle." This story would go. That was it, ono bnilt on one's (allures. Sho would build so, too. She wall-ed fast, onioylng tho cold air, tho gray dusk, tho gloanl of lighted windows. The lato Ihy tramc rushed by her, big cars, small cars, freighted with home-going hu manity. And suddenly among them sho saw Gar's roadster. Jiargo was rldinir beside Gar. snuggled deei) In her fur cont, h'er shbiildor close to Gar's. Sho was laughing, her face lifted to Gar's. Kitty, halted In tho shadow of a tree, felt a wavo of physical sick ness pass over her. Sho did not arguo with herself: "It's all right, He might have mot her somewhere. Of course If ho did he'd run her home." Sho shrank from Gar's coming in. Rho wouldn't ask him Hut she did: "You passed me on Elm Avenue, Oar. You woro With Marge." Sho could have said it so carelessly, laughod at It, Hut sho said It In tho new sharp tone sho found horsolf using, now, so often. Gar's answer was careless enough. "Marge and I were having tea with Mother. Marge wanted to say good-by." Tho old nameless feat smote Kitty. Fight she'd fight, hut with what? Sho know that Gar was trying to tell her somothlng. "Kit, I know you're going to make a fuss but I can't help It. I can't get off to go to Brldgewator." "Gar!" He did not look at her. Ho had walked to the window and he stood there, his hack to tho room. "Things have coma up." ho weni on, vaguely, his tone unconvincing. "You'll have to explain to Phil. I've, telegraphed him. Of course you'll go Just the same." men, including one guest, Mrs. Alta Turnure, of Red Cloud Nebr., spent the afternoon sewing on quilt blocks, Mrs. Hlbbits served refreshments late In the afternoon, assisted by her daughter.

Seven tables wer arranged for pi nochle and the prizes were awarded to Mrs. L. J. Ebert and- James Cole man, high; and Mrs. R. E. McAnulty and Renwick Clark, consolation.

W. Riley. Wild flowers, placed about tho rooms, furnished an attractive setting for tho event. Plans for a regular routine of busi ness and Initiation, which will be held during the evening, wore com peted. The remainder of the after noon was spent informally ln sewing and conversation. . Mrs. Riley was assisted ln serving refreshments by Mrs. Frank Cleavlng er. On May 10 Mrs. Frank deavlngcr FREWl Abbott Kitty put her hands out, blindly, to catch on something fos support; "You don't want ..o leave Marge, hctoro sho goes." Sho did not know that she said It aloud. Her throat felt toti thick for speech. But she must have, ti.i the words, the angry fond of them, hung In the air be tween thorn. "Put it that way If you want to." He swung around. His face was dark, tortured, and there wb an ' odd unhappy pleading ln his eyes as . If he wero mutoly asking of Kitty something tliut ho could not put Into speech. But Kitty would not see It. Kitty wont to Brldgewator alone, hut tound horsolf unexpectedly re turning to Wlnton. A train-boy called the morning papers through tho pullman car of tho cross-stnto Express. Kitty, hud dled ln a corner of a seat, asked sharply for a IVfnlon J'ime. She paid for It, thon let It lie across her knee for a momont, her oyos averted from It, a shudder passing through her Gar's accident would bo In the paper, those dotalls missing from the telephone communication that was bringing 1191- back to Wlnton. Perhaps sho'd open it to ronJ that Gar was dead. AH through the night, lying stiff, aching, on her berth, sho had pic tured the accident, Gar' mangled, calling for her In his last conscious ness. They hadn't told hor over the tolephono, because they'd thought of tho Bhock peoplo broke news that wny, with half-truths. She took up tho payor with trembling lingers. Tho print blur red; it was a moment before she could soe oven tho hond-llno. Her glance traveled swiftly ovor tho first page. Not there sho turned tho shoot. And thon she shrank back with a little cry., Marge's face looked nt her. "Miss' Margery Crosby, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. .Ooxtor Crosby, who with Mrs. Crosby leaves for New York to day to sail next week for an extended stay In Kurope, escaped Injuries In tho automobile crash which may cost tho llvos of Onrllold Frew, son of Mr. and Mrs. Dalton Frow, and Paul Somorset well-known actor who has been di recting tho productions of the Play ers at the Uttle Theater on Sutton Street." Kitty did not look for more do talls. Sho crushed tho paper In tier hands and let it fall to tho floor. She stared out of tho window, her undorllp caught in her teeth. Gar wasn't dead not yet. Sho'd get to him in time! "Oh, Gar, Gar! Oh, hurry, hurry I" "Oh, God, lot mo sco him. Let mo talk to him!" She said It aloud. Sho saw tho man In lho seat across' tho alslo look at her curiously, with a little concern. "Why Is the train going so slowly?" she caked him. childishly. "We're coming Into Wlnton," ho told her. "Can I holp you?" She shook her head. Sho found her hat and Jammed U on her head, Jerked on her gloves. She ran down the alslo of the car, pushing fellow- travelers aside. "Your bags, lady" tho porter called to her. Sho'd forgotten them. Sho was turning her head, frowning. Impatient of the smnllost delay when a voice called her name. David took her arm. Her eyes widened with horror. He'd met her to toll her (Copyright. Jane Abbott) t. . la Gar de.id? David tells Kitty hit naws at once, tomorrow. ! will entertain, assisted by Mrs, Olara Moss.
