Wednesday with Meridian College, but
\0rd from them Sunday afternoon stat-
ed the other |wo games had been can-
celled and the Denton team could have
Monday and Tuesday to play.
The Decatur Baptists will play return
gabies here on April 26th and 271 h.
Ttjey vvere scheduled for games earlier
in the season and for the Normal Col-

With the balcony fairly crowded and
the downstairs section fully half till-
ed. between six and seven hundred peo-
ple heard the lecture on American
sculpture by Lorado Taft Satuniqy
night at the college. .Mr. Taft, consid-
ered the greatest of the living Ameri-
can sculptjors, is a lecturer of somewhat
unusual personality, and his criticisms
of fine points <1 the sculptural master-
pieces shown on the screen were So
keenly sensitive in their, humor as to
be instantly appreciated, and com-
prehended to a greater extent than if
the personal element had been left out.
An unmistakable example of this ef-
fective element is not amiss ri^ht
here, and will explain better than
words the benefit that was so easily
got from the lecture. Iff speaking of a
splendid statue of Washington Yfr.
Taft gave first one view of the statuSb,
from the Side front, showing the dis-
tinguished general on his prancing
horse. He added something about the
“only fault’’ in the conception of the
pose, not’ generally discernible in the
casual look, but showing up with ad-
most apa|ling clearness in “some of the
execrable views that had been taken.”
He laughed amusedly, and told of his
own feelings when, waking one morn-
ing in his room not far from the statue,
he looked out and’observed this fault,
with much amazement that it could be
the same statute he had admired so the
day before. The second view On the
screen showed the statue from the an-
gle he had described, the body of the
horse so set upon his bent back knees
aS to 190k almost read’* to topple back-
ward from the fragile appearing legs(
The picture caused a ripple of laugh-
ter, and the presentation of the fault
mad*- jf instantly understood.
It was a matter of real disappoint-
ment that Mr. Taft showed no pictures
■f his own work, although the atidi-
eqce remained -seated at the close, and
under cover of the applause voiced the
general wish. Mr. Taft returned to bow
to the applauders, but. failed, very
probably through intent, to~*get the
“drift” of the compliment.
In his lecture Mr. Taft began with
American sculpture in its infancy—a
very healthy and promising infancy,
as the specimens pf the art of William
Rush, who worked with wood figures.
Horatio Greenough, Thomas Crawford,
who conceived and executed the mag-
nificent statue of Washington just east
of the capitol building, Henry Kirke,
who modeled the equestrian statue of
Washington in Union, Square, New
York, Hiram Powfete, Clark Mills, John
Rogers, Augustus Saint-Gaudens, and
now, of whom ho spoke as the “great-
'■st American sculptor”—th otfgh that
honor has been unmistakably confer-
red upon Mr. Taft himself—Daniel
Chester French, his close friend.
The screen pictures included prob-
ably a hundred photographs of the
Viork of American sculptors, some ex-
quisite in their modeling, others of
more magnificent proportions, and all,
with the attendant histories and re-
marks, affording a fair beginning for
a sculptural education.
During his lecture Mr. Taft showed
some of the architectural sculpture of
Karl Bitter, his friend and another.not-
ed American sculptor, of whose work
he spoke
probably
had been

the death
urday in New York, .according to a dis-
patch received by the Record and
