ROLLINS FINE ARTSSHOWING RECENT WORKAT MORSE GALLERY

Rollins College Fine Arts Exhi-bition at Morse Gallery of Art,Winter Park. (Opening Wednes-day, Feb. 9, 1949—to run throughthe month.)

In Providence, Rhode Islandthere is now hanging an art exhi-bition entitled, "Twenty-nine'isms in art since 1800." In theMorse Gallery of Art here in Win-ter Park there is an exhibition ofthe recent work of the faculty andstudents of the Rollins departmentof Fine Arts, What first impressesthe visitor is the fact that whilethe students have been exposedto all twenty-nine of the isms, aswell as to the great art periods ofthe past, they have chosen in theirown expressive work to be, likeGauthier, of those "for whom thevisible world exists." All displaynot only technical ability but asensitive, poetic vision. Even thosewho see most realistically do so ina rather romantic fashion. Whileno two model or paint alike thereis a pleasant feeling of unity aboutthe show as a whole.

Space does not permit of listingthe exhibitors here, and whereeach has quality it would beodious to make comparisons. Thework which in itself seems to sumup the impression of unpretent-ious dignity and simple sinceritypervading the whole exhibition isthe sculptured woman and child

by Professor Ortmayer in thecenter of the gallery.

This exhibition will appeal toall here interested in art and inthe activities of Rollins College.

DR. R. A. BUDDINGTON ON"SCIENCE AND RELIGION"IN COMMUNITY SERIES

Dr. Robert A. Budington willgive the lecture on Monday eve-ning, February 14, in the Com-munity Lecture Series. His sub-ject will be "On the Co-develop-ment of Science and Religion."

Since his retirement he haslived in Winter Park; is a memberof the University Club; and de-votes much of his time to con-tinuing research along his specialline.

With the world concerned withscientific experimentation in manyfields, and concerned likewisewith the moral implications ofsome of those researches, the lec-ture will prove timely and en-lightening. The public is cordiallyinvited to attend.

There will be no lecture on theevening of February 21 becauseof the Rollins academic convoca-tion.

MARTHA SHARP(Continued from Page 1)

Mrs. Waitstill H. Sharp has anextraordinary record of service inEuropean relief work, during andsince the World War.

She and her husband were sentinto Czechoslovakia in February,1939, by the Unitarian ServiceCommittee, to aid the 250,000refugees driven out of Sudeten-land by the Munich' Agreement.They were the only Americanworkers there and were given theadministration, of other fundsalso, among them the largeNicholas Murray Butler Fund,

They remained there aboutseven months establishing mater-nity hospitals, homes for dis-placed children, feeding andclothing projects, and set up animmigration office through whichover 3,500 families were enabledto emigrate.

They remained until Naziespionage and activities madefurther work impossible and werethe last relief workers to leave.

The following year, 1940, Mr.and Mrs. Sharp were sent by theUnitarian Service Committee tosouthern France where they in-augurated milk and other projectsfor the relief of the starvingrefugees and their children.

They were instrumental infinding and sending to this coun-try many intellectuals whosenames are well known here andin Europe and whose lives underthe Nazis were in danger.

Later she was made Director ofthe Unitarian Service Committeework in Spain and Portugal, withheadquarters in Lisbon, and hasbeen decorated by the govern-ment of Portugal for her accom-plishments there.

Here she performed an unpre-cedented work among the SpanishRepublican and other refugeeswho had fled from Spam, many ofwhom were confined in jails aspolitical prisoners.

Through her efforts with thegovernment representatives fromLatin-American countries, shewas able to obtain visas, pass-ports and other papers for hun-dreds of these people, and they

were sent to welcoming Mexicoand South American countries tostart life over again.

During her work in Europe andher visits to concentration camps,she became deeply concernedabout the plight of the Jewishchildren, children without a coun-try, homeless, most of themorphans who had seen theirparents and relatives go into thegas chambers of the Nazis.

As a result of the needs ofthese unfortunate children, she,with the cooperation of Christianand Jewish religious leaders inAmerica, organized "Children toPalestine, Inc." and is one of itsDirectors.

Mrs. Sharp has given her timeand energies for several years tothe work of this organization,speaking to thousands of personsin hundreds of cities all over thecountry from the Atlantic to thePacific Coasts.

Twice she has visited Palestinein recent years and traveled fromDan to Beersheba, in order tobring back eye-witness reports ofthe progress there in the educa-tion and rehabilitation of theseyoung people in their new landof Israel.

Her most recent visit was lastsummer during the month ofAugust, and she will tell heraudience on Wednesday, Feb.23rd, of her experiences, her ob-servations and adventures duringthat visit.

The proceeds of this lecture willbe used for the work of theUnitarian Service Committee car-ried on in Europe for the dis^placed and orphaned children ofall nationalities, of which thereare still over 100,000; a work inwhich Mrs. Sharp is still deeplyinterested.

wrote to the society to which theywere given. Very soon I receiveda letter stating that the bookswere still in existence, and wasgiven a description of them. Thetwo most important are A His-tory of the Ancient Mexican Em-pire, written about 1550, and AChronological and MythologicalHistory of the Ancient Mexicans,written in Nahuatl, the Azteclanguage. Neither manuscript isknown to exist in Mexico at thepresent time.

"Besides these books, othersused by the early Catholic mis-sionaries and printed in Mexicobetween 1571 and 1624 in theNahuatl and Otomi languageswere located. Arrangements arebeing made to secure microfilmsof these rare books, and if theyare found to contribute to theknowledge of Aztec life and his-tory, both will be translated intomodern Spanish and into English.
