Young People's Societies SIMCOE STREET YOUNG PEOPLE The meeting of Simcoe Street Young People's League was in charge of the Citizenship Com- mittee last evening, who secured as the speaker, Mr. George Hart, of this city. Mr. Hart was intro- cuced to his audience of young people by Rev. E. Harston. Muni- cipal politics was the theme of Mr. Hart's address, "Everyone should be interested in the gov- ernment." said Mr. Hart, 'for the government is interested in everybody. In his talk he traced the people's share in the govern- ment from its beginning in the t:me of King John down to tne present day. He closed his inter- esting, address with the follow- Ing quotation: 'A high standard of government can only be ob- tained by a high standard of citi- zeps." Mr, Cyril Weyrich sang a tenor solo belore the meeting was brought to a close, ' ST. GEORGE'S AY.P.A, The members of St. George's A. Y.P.A. were hosts last evening when they entertained the members of the Young People's Associations of Christ Church, Holy Trinity Church and All Saints' Church, Whitby. Over one hundred and fit- ty young people were gathered to- gether for this event. St. George's club colors of blue and white were in evidence in the attractive decor- ations, Each Association contribut- ed to an interesting programme, which followed a brief devotional service. Hayden MacDonald, pres- ident of the Young Men's Club of St. George's spoke to the assembled young people about Intercession Service which is to be held on De- cember 'the second.

She had twelve of them, all of the same age, and most mothers think one at a time is quite enough to look after. She had all the care of them, too, for Unc' Billy Pos- sum had had to move out when the children came and had lived, and still was living, by himself in another part of the Green For- set. This suited him, and if the truth be know it had suited Mrs. Possum while the babies were small, for Unc' Billy would have been merely in the way. He would have been of no use at all, Weddings NESBITT--WATSON Quietly on Saturday afternoon at the parsonage, Brooklin, Stel- la Watson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Willlam Watson was united in marriage to Mr. Douglas How- ard Nesbitt, son of Mr, and Mrs. A.

Trying to keep track of all of them and at the same time find enough for them to eat was enough to drive anyone distract- ed. Mrs. Possum was thin and worried-looking and cross. Do you wonder? Unc' Billy, on the osher hand, was fat, There was plenty to eat and he had no wor- ries or cares, no one but himself to think of. Une' Billy had not seen his family for some time. He didn't even think about them. He thought of no one but himself, which is likely to be the way with people who live alone, Then one night as he was shuffling along toward the swamp just above the Smiling. Pool to look for a Frog or two he heard a strange noise and stopped, for it was coming toward him, The noise was made up of tiny squeaks and growls with now and then a louder one. In a moment there appeared in a patch of moonlight a queer sight. At first Upc' Billy was startled. What could such a looking animal be? Then he saw a familiar face, the face of OI' Mrs. Posstim, If her face was familiar her form wasn't. Such a sight as she was! She seemed to have sprouted small heads and tails all over her, She was taking her family dut to dinner. Yes, sir, tHat is what she was doing. Two or three were in her big pocket and the rest were clinging to her wher- ever they could get hold of her fur, some on her back and others clinging*to her sides. No wonder Unc' Billy hadn't recognized her at first, He was tempted to steal away, but Mrs. Possum saw him and came straight toward bim. Unc' Billy grinned. It was a feeble kind of a grin, for somehow Ol Mrs, Possum didn't look as if she were in the best of humor, "How do yo' do, mah deah?" said he. Mrs. Possum shook herselr and shook hard, Little Possums fell oft on all sides where they im- mediately began to run about and poke inquisitive little noses into everything they found. Those in her big pocket scrambled out. "How do Ah do? Ah'm worn to a frazzle," replied Mrs. Pos- sum in a fretful volce. "Yes, sub, Ah cert'nly am worn to a frazzle. Here yo' go off by ye'self and leave me to bring up a fam- ily of this size and then yo' ome around and ask me how Ah do!" "But yo' sent me away yo' own 1 self," protested Unc' Billy in an injured tone. "But Ah didn't tell yo' not to come back," retorted Mrs, Pos- sum. "Yo might have come once in a while to see how Ah was getting along. Look at those twelve chillun, who don' know their own father, and whose fath- er don' know them. Just yo' look at them." Unc' Billy: was looking. They were a fine looking lot of young- sters and inside of Unc' Billy a feeling of pride was beginning to stir, "Ah never saw a finer family," said he. OI' Mrs. Possum sniffed. "No thanks to you'," said she, cross- ly. "Suppose yo' take them for a while and let me get a little.rest." Unc' Bily hastily backed a few steps. "Ah don' know anything about chillun," he protested has- tily. "Yo' 'know Ah don', mah deah. Ah--Ah-- Ah would lose some of them, Ah know Ah would, They don' know me an' they wouldn't stay with me." OI' Mrs, Possum grinned. "Ah wouldn't trust them to yo'," said she, whereat Unc' Billy sighed with relief. "But the least yo' can do is to stay around and help me find enough fo' them to eat," she added, Unc' Billy could find no excuse for not doing this much. (Copyright, 1931, by T. W.

Brelessic L Bake CLASS OF MODERN AND OF ACADEMIC American Water Colors Make Canadian Pictures Look Gentle (By Jehanne Bictry i , Art Critic of The Canadian Press) Toronto. -- With contemporary writers entirely given to biographies and everyone thirsty for the liter- ary portraits of all-important men and women of yesterday and to-day the November exhibition of Cos- mopolitan Artists Portraits at the Toronto Art Gallery is a most fit- ting feature. Yet to those visitors to whom the idea of portraiture Is linked with that of likeness to the sitter, this group of self-portraits by famous contemporary artists is shocking beyond redemption. In fact the "serious-minded art lover", who is coming to this show with his own art opinion wed "rehearsed," is going to find it well nigh impossible to reconcile all that he has heard on the standards of portraiture with the contents of this exhibition, The worst of it is that when leay- ing the portrait-room to seek a re- fuge in the gallery where hang the American water colours, this untor- tunate visitor will feel that he has fallen from Charybdis to Scylla. There the comparison with last month's exhibition of Canadian wa- ter colors will seem odious, and the faithful dcvotee of the orthodox careful, minute drawing and con- scientious use of color will throw up 'his arms in despair. Painters such as George Biddle, Gay Penec Du Bois, James Chapin, Glern Cole- man, Andrew Dasbourg, to mention only a few out of the collection--all names to be conjured with -- will seem sacrilegious when considered by the standard of the Canadian water colors exhibited last month at the Grange. The looseness of the their leisurely compositional arrangement that speak the langu- age of great talent and authority are interpreted by the considerate pupils of our local masters of pres ciseness as the signs of incompet- ence and carelessness. In the mean- while these very men, the Cole- mans, the Dasburgs and their con- freres go on reaping prizes irom international juries who pass on the ork of the most noted artists of Europe and America. 'As for the names represented in the collection of geli-portraits, they are of major' importance in the movement of contemporary art. This exhibition was arranged by I'he College Art Association and is to tour the museums in the United States, after having been viewed in Toronto. With all its unpleasant faces to look at, this group offers a remarkable panorama Of the vari- ous moods prevalent in the art of to-day, in the United and in Eur- ope, No lesser men than Diego Rivera, the Mexican, James Ensor, the Bel- gian, George Grosz, the German, Picasso, the Franco-Spaniard, Eu- gene Zak, the Russian, Walter Pach the denouncing satirist of the False Artist, Alexander Brook, the Amer- ican, are among the men who haye portrayed themselves and whose portraits are shown here, In fact, enter and meet a brother Canadian, who after having become yamous in the United States, now feels very much at home at the Tor- onto Gallery visiting with his coun- try people whose esteem has gown with his fame. Here is Boardman Robinson, the mura; painter, born in Somerset, Nova Scotia, As we go about the room, being unable to chat with everyone, let us at least introduce you to Mr, Kremegne of Paris, France, who seems to have gone to school with our own Varley of Vancouver, formerly of Toronto, unless Mr, Varley went to school with him. The colors with which Mr. Kremegne has painted his own head are very much like those used by the British Columbia painter in his recent portraits, The two yellow-faced men in the one frame are a double self-version of Vincent Canade, the Italian Am- erican who paints landscapes with the same strong sense of delineation and the same intensity that he paints his own traits, The gentle- man in high hat who is so incon- gruous behind glass is the late Mon- sier Cottet. You may remember his sentimental processions of people in mourning, his Brittany series in the Luxembourg museum, in Paris, He has described himself in the same gloomy atmosphere which pervades his description of widows and or- plans, "A convict, or a sailor?", some- one asked before the self-portrait of Max Beckman, the Ly Herr Beckman has answered this question in another self-portrait, this time a lithograph which is shown with other prints in another room, and he has written his answer as a background, or shall we say a halo? to his own head: "Circus Beckman." This artist is a philos- opher, at times a cynic, and ne looks at himself as he looks at life, with" a fair sense of humor, also with an underlying sadness and bit- terness of thought. "Who is the mah under the broad rimmed hat?""--Yun Gee, the 22- year-old Chinese painter who has the wisdom of the wise prophets of China in his heart and in his mind. color, {| Back in 1926, this young Chinese, a mere boy, left San Francisco for Paris as a steerage passenger on one of the cargo boats that go to Europe via the Panama canal lis luggage consisted of a trunk- full of pictures inside of tly® cover of which his cosmopolitan' friends had written messages of love and wishes for his success, From this trip he has returned a wise man.

Quite rightly you claim that Can- adians have very little in common with all these artists and their view of art. To be even more convinced of this the visitor to the Toronto Art Gallery, this month only needs to step into the room where the small pictures by members of the Ontario Society of Artists are being shown. How nice these little pic- tures are, how candid, well done, restful, intimate and simple, cosmopolitanism here, no sophisti- cation in these O. S. A, Christmas pictures. The exceedingly well done till- life by Charles Comfort, which is the most extreme example of painting in the show, indeed looks most gentle and "suave after a visit to thé other rooms, "The Red Chair", by Arthur Lismer might be traced to the master an Gogh from the standpoint of the subject matter but how content, thoroughly com- placent it is in color, design and at- sphere! "Ducks Feeding", by Mary Wrinch; "Changing Pastures", by Herbert Palmer; "Oak Trees, Au- tumn", by Fred Haines; houses and mor- houses by A. J. Casson; lakes and more lakes with stiff islands by Frank Carmichael, epitomize the Canadian point of view and its scope of inspiration in this "Small Pictures" show, as it does in most of our art exhibitions. This month a greater emphasis is being brought on this gentleness and candor be- cause, for once, our Canadian work finds itself 'in truly cosmopolitan company.

Freighters Bring Horses to Enrich Quebec Strain Montreal.--Continenta; mares and a stalin' to enrich the strain of Canadian horses arrived in good condition recently aboard the Can- adian Pacific freighters Deaverbrae and Beaverdale. One long mare made the trip across the Atlantic on the Beaver- dale and 12 Percherons including the stallion and 10 Belgians were.on the Beayerbrae. A pathetic scene was enacted at London docks when the mare was taken aboard the Beaverdale, as realistic as features any separation among the members of the human family, To keep her company the mare was accompanied from Yarm to ship's side by her foal and her surprise and disappoint- ment at the subsequent leave taking was poignant in teh extreme. The mother necighed a long drawn out farewelj and a shrill neigh came from the foal, to appreciate exactly what was happening On arrival the mother was contentedly cating her ration of hay unconscious of the destiny awaiting her in a new land. Specially Selected The Beaverbrae received the Bel- gan horses at Antwerp and the 'ercherons at Havre. They have been selected by Dean H. Barton, of Macdonald College on behalf of the Quebec Department of Agricul- ture and they will be despatched to special districts in the province for breeding purposes. Their average age is from two to three years. The Beaverdale should have reached Montreal some days ago, taken on a cargo for the European ports and was scheduled to leave yesterday according to original plans. But several things have de= layed the vessel. In the first place, she was late getting away from the St. Lawrence on her last eastern trip owing to the low depth of wa= ter. This necesitated her receiving part of her cargo at Quebec instead of all at"Montreal. Piles All Gone Without Salves or Cutting 1!
