Vivid Description
of Romantic Ruins
Given By Speaker
Women of Medford enjoyed a rare
treat when they gathered at the
club room on Thursday to hear Mrs.
Jessie B. Honeyman, who gave a lec
ture on Angkor, the Magnificent and
Taj Mahal. Mrs. Honeyman, a mas
ter of the art of painting wood
pictures, held the Intense interest
of the audience while she described
these rulna In Combodla in their
mystery and splendor.
The leading thought In Oriental
art Is the expression of beauty said
Mrs. Honeyman. and nowhere In the
world Is there a truer example of
harmony and coordination of beauty
expressed In architecture. In 1907
the French government took posses
sion of this ancient city and has
been ruling the Jungle and restor
ing the buildings. Archaeologists
have been unable to come to any
definite conclusion as to lt origin
and history. Students have found
reference to this city in Chinese
records, hence a connection evidently
can be linked with that civilization.
There are miles and miles of the
most perfect and magnificent carv
tnfm denictlna the life of the peo
ple. Their religion was a mixture
of cults, one succeeding the other
ttiv nrntmnin nnri Buddhist Im
ages existing side by side In the
temples scattered over comooaia.
with Hinduism evidently being the
prevailing one at the time of the
disappearance of the race.
Taj Mahal, a marble tomb built
by Jehan-Arjamand, the ruler ol
Combodla. as a memorial for his de
parted wife Muntaz-l-Mahal. The
simple beauty of this tomb is be
yond description and Is equalled by
none In the known world.
xr TTsnvmnn stated that there
were many interesting books for
those who wish to Know more

fluence of Indian art being among
the best.
