...which comprises more than half of the total show, a superabundance of foreign names makes one look up now and then for the reassuring sign stating that these are Americans. Best Known in this company is Rockwell Kent whose four drawings are in his usual striking style. One, a lithograph entitled "Pinnacle" combines softness with great power, and is the best of the four, although "The End", a woodcut, has a great deal of force. Louis Lozowick contributes more drawings than any one other artist, and his work is very capable. His lithographs are of such scenes as building construction...
...Summer Term of '93 a bolt from the blue flashed down on Oxford. . . . Dons and undergraduates stood around, rather pale, discussing nothing but it. Whence came it, this meteorite? From Paris. ...

Most variations of the ballad agree that Frankie (a harlot) and Johnnie (a pander) were lovers- "And Oh, my God how they did love." Pledging eternal faithfulness, Frankie proceeds to support Johnnie, attiring him in "hundred-dollar" suits. Then it appears that Johnnie is philandering with a lady called Nellie...
...Borah; Clémenceau, Chesterton and Clemens; Stresemann and Stimson; Poincare and Pershing; Masaryk, Mussolini, MacDonald and Mellon ?they were all of them to be seen last week in the library of Manhattan's fastidious Pynson Printers, most of them in chalk, Mark Twain and Abraham Lincoln in lithograph. Had it not been withdrawn for reproduction on the cover of this issue of TIME, the crayon likeness of Charles Evans Hughes would also have appeared...
