EXHIBITION OF PAINTINGS BY COLUMBIA ARTIST I Very lovely is the exhibition of J painting and sketches by Carolina . Guignard, Columbia artist, at Green leaf Villa in Camden, which will be open from yesterday to March 5. Making them particularly interest ing to South Carolinians is the fact that most of them are representative of this state. It would be difficult to select the most appealing from thir group of 25 landscapes. All are sc oxquiwite and. reflect the beauty of coloring and romance of Carolina especially those of Pawley's Island If one could make a choice it would bo probably "Spring," "Early Morn ing," "The Deserted Cabin," or "Still Hopes," her home. Miss Guignard studied with Rob ert Henri and Kenneth Miller for 8 years and spent two years in Flor ence, Italy, as a pupil of William M. Chase. She has exhibited at the Acad emy of Design in New York, in itself a great distinction. Her work has been showh by the Southern States Art League and from one of these exhibits one of her landscapes was photographed for publicity for the league. In 1925 at the exhibition of South Carolina artists, she was a warded first prize by Birge Harri son, ? Sunday's State.

WOMEN MANAGE KITCHEN IN LARGE NEW YORK HOTEL ONE of New York's large hptels has Introduced an idea that seems so obvious and is proving so successful that the natural question is being heard, "Why hasn't aomeone thought of that before?" It's a woman chef presiding over the kitchens and menus, with a staff of women cooks and assistants, at the Ho tel Lexington, one of the hotets under Ralph Hit* direction. Not satisfied with the modern idea carried out in the construction and furnishings, Manage? Charles E. Rochester had some modern Ideas in management he wanted to' try or/t, and this one is attracting attention. Woman's place in the kitchen has never been disputed. She knows food ?nd its preparation so well that the height of' praiie and comparison has tlway* been, "As good as mother used to make/* or "Just like home-made." lllaa Charlotte Field, * well known Experiment with Woman Chef and Cooks Proves Successful at Lex ington ? (Inset) Manager Charlea , E. Rochester, Who Had a Modern Idea. diet expert, is the only woman chef in any large New York hotel. All of her assistants at the Lexington are also women cooks. More than the ability to get the best quality out of food, the women seem to grasp the idea of kitchen economy, says Mr. Rochester, and they show rare effi ciency in planning the service of meals. For instance, although' she may serve a thousand guests a day, the chcf pre pares perhaps a half-dozen small roasts every ten minutes, so that each order when served has been fre'hl" prepared and ffrdves it bv its flavor.
