Recent Exhibition
By Ella Rush Murray
(By Edna Reed Wbaley)
In viewing the exhibition of watercolors
by Mr?. Wm, B. Murray, at
the Kir&wood Hotel, one did not feol
that amy allow**** had to he made
for the fadt that it was Mrs. Mur-'
ray's first public showing of paintings.
Educated both in this country and
abroad this artist, just making hot
debut in the art world, attacks the
problems of landscape with fearless-0
nes$ and naivete refreshing after, the
monotonous and stereotyped exhibitions
of .the same pattern of approach
and technique*
tn these paintings ,one is enchanted
with the point of view. It?is different
from that of anylbody else, and
that constitutes so much of the intimate
charm of these scenes taken
from all over the world?a .personal
expression.. The color is put in 'boldly
here and delicately there, yet is
not strident, nor is it weak. Mrs.
.Murray fits her technique0 to the
subject matter and gets the results
at which she aims.
The muonlfcain scenes are perhaps
among the loveliest of her subjects.
There is a tenderness, a sense of fine
modelling in the distant peaks of
the coast ef Japan that is most attractive;
all with exquisite vibrant
color?yet her cliffs are done in brilliant
hues of striking contrast.
The picture of the church and stairway
at Sotchy, on the Russian coast
of the Black Sea, was fine in tone
and pleasing composition, and her
Russian churches with their manycolored
domes, were as decorative a*
a Bakst.
Nor. were all the scenes from for1
eign countries. Mrs. Murray works
constantly end consistently, and
wherever she is, she puts down her
environment In color. Perhaps no
visiting artist has rendered Magnolia
Gardens go imaginatively as Mrs.
Murray. The lines of moss and wistaria
form weird. shadows,/"and cyp:
ress and wistaria weave In and out
in varied and unusual background^,
all reflected in the dark waters of
the lagoon. Mrs. Murray has painted
a.number of studies around Camden
and Charleston. ^
Altogether the collection of watercolora
Was unusual and , awil worth
seeing. Unlike some exhibitions the
pictures linger in one's memory, as
if one had seen the places themselves.
It also is a relief to welcome an artist
from, a northern clime Who adapts
her eye to the color values of the
South. Especially is this ever-fresh
view-point necessary in South Carolina,
which State runs the gamut of
scenerv frr?m *** ? ?1
One often rebels at seeing Southern
haze translated into the cleat, cold
air of the Massachusetts fishing
coast, or the tropical sun of an Arizona
desert. "Carolinians love to be
themselves and do not want to be
painted any other way. The artist
who goes in for Southern landscapes
must get the feeling for Southern
atmosphere, and this is what Mrs.
Murray is doing.

Storm Furies
Whole of the Globe
(By Monday's Associated Press )
The elements in all thehr fury beat
across sea and land yesterday. Earthquakes
and storms brought death to
165 and injuries to several hundred
others. Of these, L50 were reported
quake victims.
J^aith shocks Rproad death and destruction
in the Balkan states. In the
United States violent rain ahd .snowstorms
worked their toll of life a\id
property over nearly the entire area
of the Atlantic seaboard and far into
the West.
Snow blew into the South over the
week end, in Georgia, Kentucky,
North Carolina and eastern Tennessee.
The storm was not accompanied
by sufficient cold to' keep the
snow, however. The flakes melted
ailmost as soon as they reached the
ground, averting the threat of ice on
the Gulf coast.
In the Mid-AVeet, United States, a
mad March storm left huge hanks of
snow and bitter weather was held responsible
for IB' deaths in that area.
President Hoover ran into a snow
storm on his visit to his son in Asheville,
N. C. .. .V.y- |
Preceded by snow and hail son\e
seaboard states were swept by a nearly
freezing rain whipped into fury by
a 40-mile gale. Automobile traffic
was at a minimupv Many accidents
were caused by thfe blinding rain. In
New York and New, Jersey at lea,st
two deaths resulted.
I A' Brooklyn, th^ wind blew with
sufficient force to pick up an 80year-old
woman, Mfs. Bridget Carrone,
and toss her to the pavement.
Roaring oveT New England, a wild
northeast wind whipped the ocean
into a fury and surf pounded menacingly
at the storm walls of the North
Shore summer residential section.
Cellars and streets were flooded, but
no material damage was reported.
Across the seas snow and icy gales
gripped old England. London looked
for more snow and cold on the morLow-lying
Paris suburbs gazed apprehensively
at the River Seine as the
water rose a foot above the 16-foot
alarm mark on - Austerlitz bridge.
Small villages were marooned" and

along the Seine and Mfcrne. France
experienced the coldest weather of
the year, and snow was predicted for
tomorrow.
Heavy snow already had caused the
Meuse, Loire, Allier and Rhone to
overflow and the streets in Chalonssur-Marne
were inundated. The Meuse
was disquieting near St. Mihiel and

more than a dozen machine gun
wounds had. failed to kill hum. The
sniper's bullet lodged near hik heart,

removal. But it worked the other
way,

Farm Forestry Pays
Says County Forester
F^rm forestry, like the raising of
corn and other craps, concerns the
farmer chiefly as a matter of dollars
and cents, and may be defined
as the handling of forest trees and
woodlands in such a manner as to
increase the income of the farm and
its permanent value.
Agriculture in the south has progressed
to the stage where farm owners
are interested in conserving and
utilizing all of the resources of the
farm instead of allowing some of
them to be wastefully handled.
Young trees should be recognized us
the foundation for the future timber
crop, and are therefore worth intelligent
care and attention. Now
**" J *
that the original-growth pine and the
largest and mk>st valuable of the
hardwoods are nearly all gone from
the farm, old-field (Loblolly) pine
and second growth timber compose
the major part of tKP woodlands and
are the subject of chief interest to
the farmer and timber owner. Trees
of rapid growth are, or should be,
favored, and as a rule the slow growing
species should be eliminated.
Valuable and useful trees on the
farm are a sort of savings bank account,
which if properly managed,
may be drawn upon each year without
reducing the principal. Since
timber and wood are required for the
successful operation of a farm, and
since most farms have' more or less
rocky, steep, wet or poor soil that
is best adapted to tree growth, the
handling of woodland is legitimately
a part of farm work.
In addition to the value of the
home forest as a. source of direct
income to the farmer each year, there
is another way in which it has a very
distinct worth. Woodland and trees i
on the farm undoubtedly enhance the
value of the property to a much
greater extent than the actual selling
value of the standing timber. Belts
of woodland protect the growing
crops, as well as livestock and man
from cold and parching winds. Woodlots
should be maintained on every
farm not only as a source of income,
but also i)Ocause they make living
ou the farm itself and in the community
more comfortable and attractive.
The forest lands held by farmers
in the southern states has been reported
as about 100,000,000 acres,
which is less than one-third (2&)'/r)
of all of the farm lands of this section.
Of ^he above acreage South
Carolina Jas approximately 14,000,000.
This area is capable of producing
an annual income of several
millions of dollars in raw material
?nw imioirca jnwum ir given H(lej
quate protection from fire aikf if
proper forest practices are psed. The
farmer may be interested to know
that farm woodlands represent more
than one-half of the entire forest
land of the Southern states, inclusive
of the great holdings of the
lumber companies, and yielded in the
year 1019 about $217,000,000 worth
of timber products. Of this amount
over half is sold in the form of logs,
other cut products and as standing
timber. The remainder is uood/cn
the farm. iSave the farm woodlot
and the woodlot will save the farm.

In response to tributes paid to his
war record he Quoted Nelson after
the battle of the Nile, saying:
i " 'It was my privilege to command
a band of brothers.'"
He declared that the honors bestowed
upon him were due in fact
to the response he had received' from
-the?soldiers under hio comlmnad.
The time has not yet arrived, he
said, when tihe country can abandon .
the profession of arms. He congratulated
South Carolina on the power
of i'ts manhood and on its interest in
the militia. There is no higher work
to which one can aspire, he declared,
than training for service to one's
country.?
I to The company by Judge Smith, who
! declared that the career of the man
made a formal introduction unnecessary.
He recalled the words of Brigr~
Gen. Andrew Moseg in an address at
Camp Jackson in September, 1017, in
which the speaker said: * 4>
" 'Keep your eye on Summerall. He
will be the discovery of this war.' His
record has fukfilkd that prophecy,"
Judge Smith said.
He called attention to the post the
