pictures, “Christ and the Rich: Young Man,” "Head of Christ," and ! "Christ in the Temple" w'liich were autographed for her by Henrich Hoffman when she visited his stu-! dios In Dresden a number of years ago.

He. was ‘ a*man of great refinement, quiet tastes, and deep religious feeling. He sincerely gave the best he h. d to the world without thought of; fame or reward, yet litle as lie car- ! ed for honors, he lived to see the day when his religious pictures ranked the highest among all the worlds' paintings of the same theme That his conception of the Christ! is t'he most beloved of all is proved by Hie fact that his pictures have been engraved and photographed more extensively than those of any other painter of his order.

Smyth, of the, i Westchester couti t y children's I 'court. The law is uncertain. In-, | terference with parental control' lover a child, even though it is al .question of life and death, is a delijeate problem of jurisprudence. Tlte only step the judge could' j take when the strange case came 'before him was to order Helen in-| to the custody of the county wel l I fare organization, with instructions I that she was to be cared for al the; Grasslands hospital. But even this [order had to be suspended for the jappointment of an attorney to rep- ; resent the parents. The appellate i division will decide the case. Physicians fust noticed the imalignant growth a tumor- when ) she was brought to the hospital to : visit her father, a charity patient. I The disease was obvious and the loperation on her eye imperatively ’ indicated. Every effort to persuade tile parents. foreign horn and steeped in centuries of superstition, failed.

Ala., author of the five day week bill, referred to Secretary Perkins scheduled committee appearance and added: "From my knowledge of her i suggestions, they arc emminently satisfactory to make the bill more . workable and to aid in administration without destroying the : philosophy of the measure.” 0 NOTICE TO PUBLIC Because of my many other duties requiring constant attention. 1 have lodiiy tendered my resignation as treasurer of the Emergency Relief i Association, effective as soon as [the committee is called and my report approved.
