when the public is generally invited.
It is said that Michelangelo and
Raphael and the dthdr artists of
that time generally painted only the
•saints or archbishops. Gradually
artists discovered that the common
life of the people contained subjects
quite as interesting and picturesque
as the lives of the more favored.
In literature Dickens made quite
an innovation when he turned his
pen toward the obscure and lowly.
We all want to be rich, of course,
and famous, but rich men are not
as interesting as they used to be.
The most noted monuments to the

he can only look out upon the abodes
of the poor, or build better houses
for the poor that he may regard them
from his windows.
Men of wealth are gradually turn
ing their attention toward replacing
the slums by better habitations.
Altogether it looks as if art, if
it is to have a firm foundation, must
must rest upon the basis of the des
pised demos.
It is the fashion of the intellec
tuals to deride the public and to
think that only a few chosen can ap
preciate or be benefited by the
works of art.
The newest invasion into the
ranks of art, if it can be called an
art, is the mition picture. This is
the most capillary 7 of all arts. It
gives to the least and lowest and
provides him entertainment which
heretofore was for those only who
could pay from a dollar up for a
seat at the theatres.
For this reason it appears that the N
moving picture industry 7 , resting as
it does upon the appreciation of the
whole public, is firmly settled and
is in line with democracy’.
