Easily the outstanding feature
of the third excursion on the sum-

visit to the Detroit Institute of
Arts. A number of originals of the
old masters, such as Rubens, Franz
Hals, and Van Dyke are found in
the Arts Institute. The collections
are all arranged according to peri-
ods and countries; the decorations
and even furniture of the rooms
conforming to these.
European art will be first viewed
by the party, then the Asiatic
rooms, in which an unusually com-
plete collection of Chinese and
Japanese work may be found. The
prehistoric art rooms at the back
of the building immediately adjoin
a beautiful garden and court.
The American section should
prove of unusual interest. A com-
plete colonial kitchen and a mid-
eighteenth century dining room are
found here, representing two pha ses
in the development of American in-
terior decoration.

GALSWORTHY PLAY:
THEMES TO MAKN
A Review by William J. Gorman1
A large audience last night was
treated to what one would almost
believe a rarety-light, amiable{
theatrical diversion from the hand
of Galsworthy-here a gracious 1
hand. True there are themes -
law, justice, Christian ethics, hu-
man cruelty, etc.-tossed about, but
the audience is only invited to fon-
dle them gently and they in no,
way interfere with the leisurely en-
joyment of the engaging humours
of each situation. True, the end is
tragic - the gentleman conviq,
thoroughly depressed by the vaga-
ries of communal ethics, nobly
plays the game in refusing to let
the good parson lie for him-; but
even this is not disturbingly serious.
but pleasantly platitudinous. Gals-
worthy is essentially telling a dra-
matic narrative and in addition by
subtle choice of situations he has
made an appeal (not deep or touch-
ing but altogether amiable) to the
intellects in the theater audience
who, by hook or crook, want their
attitudes toward something or
other verified or damned.
So far, director and cast have
"done right by" Galsworthy. The
