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.
Because ho thought his. name was
"a drawback socially and sounded un
American," Hubertus Ralph Theo
dore Roosevelt Kretzschmar of New
York had. his name changed to Ralph
Theodore Roosevelt. , ,

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."

, 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. Only one
