Shared Washington’s Birthday ’X'HE fame of two American art- -*■ ists rests largely upon their as sociation with George Washington and their portraits of him. They were Charles Willson Peale and his son, Rembrandt Peale, and coinci dence also plays a part in their rela tionship with the Father of His Country. For Rembrandt Peale was born on Washington’s birthday— February 22, 1778—and his father died on Washington’s birthday—Feb ruary 22, 1827. Being the son of an artist, it was only natural perhaps that Rembrandt Peale should become a painter. So it is not surprising to learn that he be gan to draw at the age of eight and by the time he was 13 he had painted a portrait of himself. Charles Willson Peale had made the first known portrait of Washing ton (painted in 1772 and depicting him as an officer in the Virginia mi litia) and had served as a captain of volunteers under him at the Battle of Tfenton. When Washington be came President, he was constantly importuned to sit for his portrait. Some of these requests he denied, but he could not refuse his old friend, when in 1795 Charles Willson Peale asked him to pose for his tal ented young son, Rembrandt. In fact, he granted the boy three sit tings in his father’s studio in Phila delphia and the portrait reproduced below was the result. This portrait of Washington was the only one which Rembrandt Peale made from life, but another of his pictures of the First American, not drawn from life, is even more fa mous. Known as the ‘‘Equestrian Portrait” it is entitled ‘‘Washington Before Yorktown” and it was not made until 1823. But when Chief Justice John Marshall, who had served under Washington ' in the Revolution, saw it, he exclaimed ‘Tt is more like Washington himself than any portrait I have ever seen.” In 1796 Charles Willson Peale de cided to give up portrait painting and recommended his talented son. Portrait of Washington, made by Rembrandt Peale when he was only 27 years old. MERCHANTS •Your Advertising Dollar buys something more than space and circulation in the columns of this news paper.

LET US TELL YOU MORE ABOUT IT Rembrandt, to the public as his suc cessor. But the son was not imme diately successful and went to Charleston, S. C., where he had his studio for several years. In 1801 he went to England to continue his studies under his father’s* instruc tor, the famous Benjamin West, but after a short time there his health failed and he returned to his home in Philadelphia. He intended to abandon art for agriculture but, after painting a few portraits, he was surprised to find himself hailed as a worthy successor to his famous father. In 1804 he advertised himself as ‘‘Rembrandt, portrait painter in large and small, head of Mulberry court, leading from Sixth, three doors above Market street” and ex plained that he desired to be known by his first name alone, “the ad junct Peale serving only to show of whom descended.” Three years later he visited Paris to paint the most distinguished men of the day and was successful in this enterprise. After a second trip to Paris in 1809, he came back to America the follow ing year and from that time, until his death in 1860, his fame as a por traitist, a painter of historic scenes and a lithographer (one of the first to practice the art in America) was undiminished. * • • Although Washington sat for his portrait by the 17-year-old Rem brandt Peale in 1795, it was not un til 1823 that the artist finally finished it. He spent those 28 years in work ing on it to make it suit his ideal of a true likeness of the great man. He took it with him when he went abroad and exhibited it in Italy and England where it attracted a great deal of attention. After his return to America, the portrait was bought by the United States senate and it now hangs in the vice president’s room in the senate wing of the Capitol. Pastel "Wools, Silks Outstanding In Spring Materials for M’Lady Ty CHERIE NICHOLAS A SEASON of perfectly fascinat- ing colorful wools and woolknits is with us, so prepare to yield to temptation to the limit of your clothes budget. The little pastel wool dresses called “classics” be cause of the sculptural simplicity of their styling, are ideal for immedi ate wear. Don one of these neat, sweetly tailored frocks, so refresh ingly springlike in color, and you will find yourself buoyantly taking an entirely new outlook on life. In regard to costume suits, the big news is that of woolens keyed to the dominate note in prints, the two going fifty-fifty in an ensemble tech nique. This flair for combining print silk with wool in related color is one of those fashion gestures that bids fair to develop into a far-flung vogue as the season progresses. Capes have dashed into the lime light of fashion dramatically and importantly. Yes, indeed, capes are just about to “steal the show” this spring, the smartest being full length. Some are of soft wools in beige or cinnamon or navy, if you please. The light-colored wools have blended fur collars, while the navy versions take on a military aspect after the manner of officers’ capes. At any rate, fashion is making a dramatic play on capes, both in pas tel wool weaves and navy. Another highlight in fashion’s realm is that of woolknits in pastels and rich dark colors. Many of the wool knits cal scarcely be told from woven wools, and they are styled to perfection in jacket dresses, sweaters, coats and ensembles. Note the casual little frock above to the left in the picture. A frock of this type is almost a necessity for a young gad-about who takes week-end trips and who is “dated” for infor mal daytime affairs. Fashioned of light blue jersey, it has a basque top with scalloped edges, and the jersey is gored in soft flattering lines for skirt fullness. Important background for jewels is the beautiful evening sweater shown to the right above. It is in strawberry pink wool chenille yam. The ribbed drape at the hips with front zipper closing and the long sleeves make it particularly new and smart. The pretty dress below to the left in the group is a cream beige wool. Its gathered neckline, front peplum effect and jewel buttons are out standing style points. Plaid and striped woolens prom ise to be better than ever this sea son. Their coloring will be, for the most part, pastel. An interesting color note about the smartest of plaids is that so many feature the new yellows and golden hues. The clever tweed spectator suit which you see on the seated figure claims distinction in that it goes in for voguish yellow and gold, patterned with cream beige. The make-up of the costume-entire includes, in addi tion to the beautifully cut jacket a yellow woolknit sweater and a matching felt hat. /T9«• -«*«**NToTircrinTTninn.) Cravat Silk With m’lady’s present flair for ac cessories to match her hat milliners are turning more and more to beau tiful silk weaves as likable media for their creations. For the postil lion hat and matching jacket en semble pictured, Lilly Dache, noted for high artistry in hat design, uses men’s bright cravat silk diagonally in a most effective manner. Dinner Dress For an unusual dinner dress, have one made of heavy white silk crepe with long, full skirt and long sleeves gathered into the wrist. Over this wear a tight little velvet or velve teen sleeveless bodice laced peasant fashion with gold or silver cord. It is a dress that can go anywhere and will stand out in a crowd for its youthful distinction. Red Shoes Red shoes are important footwear news. They are showing them in leading stores to wear with smart looking navy suits. Lots of Color in Sight On Spring Style Horizon Look to your colors! You can align yourself with the pastel enthu siasts or you can go colorfully South American. There is a convincing argument in favor of either. Speaking of the lighter colors, of course you will want at least one r if not several, of the perfectly charming and most flattering pastel wool frocks. Chapters could be written about these fascinating frocks. A favorite decorative touch for these pastels is the trapunlo quilted effect. When it comes to the startling South American color technique, not even the rainbow or the whole color spectrum is exceeded in the bright hues of red, yellow, purple and blue that are amazingly combined in daring contrast. There is also a decided showing of vivid russet, brown, tangerine and similar shades in the new color schemes for spring. Lots of purple is used with cerise. Emphasis is noted on beige this spring, and chamois is a smart new color for coats. Gibson Girl Sailor Hat Becomes Fashion ‘First’ Well look what’s just arrived! None other than the jaunty Gibson Girl sailor hat come to life. Milliners tell you they are “the latest” and that for the fashion “first” you will be seeking for midseason and spring. Wear it atop your pompa dour a la Gibson girl, and don’t for get the perky little veil that must go with it. Ever so chic tied under the chin. Chinese Influence New spring coats and jackets often reflect Chinese influence. Very smart are hip-length coolie jackets, either quilted all over or made of colorful cloth in the new and fa vored beiges. IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL S UNDAY | chool Lesson . 1 ■ By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST, D. D. Dean of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for February 23 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. . JESUS CALLS TO PRAYER LESSON TEXT—Luke 18:1-14. GOLDEN TEXT—Lord, teach us to pray. —Luke 11:1. Imitations may be so clever as to cause us to marvel, but to the one who knows the real thing, they are “just imitations.” Particularly is that true in the realm of the spiritu al. Make-believe faith in God fools only the hypocrite and those who know as little as he does of real Christianity. Prayer is undoubtedly the great est privilege of the Christian, put ting him and his life in touch with the omnipotence of God. But it must be real prayer, not just some formal exercise which masquerades. under the name of prayer. We combine the two parables of our lesson to contrast prevailing prayer and pow erless prayer. I. Prevailing Prayer. The prayer which really lays hold upon God and brings results must be the expression of a life of prayer. It is no occasional effort brought about by a great need or a deep sorrow. We must pray 1. Without Ceasing (v. 1). Jesus had just been talking of the trying days which were to come (Luke 17:26-30). To stand fast for Christ in a day when almost all the influ ences are against such faith, a man needs real prayer or he will surely faint. To pray constantly is not neces sarily to be saying the words of prayer, but is the outreach of the life toward God, the setting of our minds on things above. That we can and may do at all times and in all places. 2. With Assurance (w. 2-9). If an unjust judge will respond just to escape the constant plea of a widow, we may rest assured that God, who is just and looks upon His people in loving-kindness, will not fail to respond to their plea. He says, “Call unto me, and I will an swer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not”. (Jer.. 33:3). 3. In Humility (w. 13, 14). We come to God, not to demand, but to humbly plead the blood of Jesus Christ. That was what the publican did. When he said, “Lord, be mer ciful,” he used the word “propitiat ed,” which refers to the mercy seat on which the blood was sprinkled as a propitiation for sin (see Exod. 25:17, 18, 21; Heb. 9:5; Lev. 16:5). Such a plea brought salvation to the repentant sinner. II. Powerless Prayer. We use the word prayer here in the broad sense, for strictly speak ing there is no such thing as prayer without power. Men call it prayer, but it accomplishes nothing because it is offered 1. In Self-sufficiency (w. 0, 11). Those who trust “in themselves” will naturally do what the Pharisee did; he “prayed with himself.” “He had an intellectual conviction, but that does not make a contact with God. Hell is full of intellectual con viction. God? Oh, yes. But he was so occupied with himself he could not get away from himself” (Mor gan). 2. With Boastful Pride (w. 9, 11, 12). Despising others, the Pharisee boasted of his own fine character and good works. “God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble” (James 4:6). It is prop er that a man should live uprightly, but if it only makes him self-right eous it becomes a barrier between him and God (Luke 18:14). 3. For the Sake of Publicity (v. 11, cf. v. 13). While the publican hung his head and stood afar off to offer his prayer, the Pharisee ap parently took a prominent place and spoke with a loud voice. Jesus de scribed that kind of prayers in Mat thew 6:5 as just putting on a pub licity “stunt.” When men had seen them pray, the transaction was fin ished. They had not been in touch with God at all. The result of the two prayers is so well described by Dr. J. Camp bell Morgan that we quote his words: “Two men at prayer. One, elo quently, in phrases circling round his own personality with which he was pre-eminently pleased. The oth er, hating his sin, and grasping out after the infinite and tender com passion of God to operate for him. . . . The man who justified him self remained unjustified. The man who sought the compassion of God went back to his house justified.” There Is Another Life I cannot believe, and cannot be brought to believe, that the purpose of our creation is fulfilled by our short existence here.
