N. S. Art League to Hear Popular Talks b:v Dudley C. Watson Dudley Crafts Watson, who will be this year's lecturer in the cour~e arranged by the North Shore Art league, is a man widely recognized for rtis rare ability to make art popular. This Art institute extension lecturer has brought to many audiences a finer un derstanding and appreciation of all the arts. He draws his subject matter from his experience as an artist, critic and traveler. As a leader of European tours he has visited every country on the continent except Russia and . gained a limitless store of anecdotes· He has a dynamic personality which infuses his lectures with enthusiasm, humor and vividness. The result in many cases has been to inspire those who have heard him to application of art to every-day life as well as to the actual creation of beauty. Mr. Watson studied first at the Art institute and then worked in the studios of Sorolta at Madrid and of Sir Alfred East in England. For some years he was a teacher of water-color nainting- at the Art institute, ani since then has been educational director of the Rockford Art guild and of the Springfield Art association and direc ~ tor of the Milwaukee Art institute. His work as a painter is represented in the Milwaukee Art institute, the Public Library collection at Burlington, Ia.; and in man:v private collections throughout the middl~ west. The lectures he will give in the course of the North Shore Art league will start Monday, Oct. 15. They c.re to be given at the Community House in Wi'lnetka. His subjerts· will be : Oct. 15-Art and Life of Scandinavia; Oct. 22-Greece and Its Supremacy; Nov. 5-Art and Life of North Africa; Nov. 19-The Enjoyment of Modern Architecture ; Dec. 3-The Art and Life of the Slavic Republics; Dec. 17 -The Art and Life of Spam.

Patten, a Republican who has seldom taken a conspicuous position in interparty battles, came out Sunday with a long statement assailing Gov. Alfred E. Smith's proposals on the liquor problem. He said in part : "Instead of a clear, courageous plan to meet and correct the evils in the present situation, Gov. Smith offers a plan which his own party followers in Congress have already declared that they will not follow, which can never be operative, and ·which at best would double opportunities for graft and crime by permitting any state to enter into the business of manufacturing and retailing alcoholic liquors. It would further debauch government by putting the retail liquor traffic under control of the state politicians!' He declared that Smith's pro posal for state's rights over liquor legislation would require an amendment to the eighteenth amendment, which would require action by both houses of congress and ratification by threefourths of the states. He asserted this would be impossible, and that, even if it were possible, 't he results would be worse than the present situation. Mrs. C. B.
