INDEPENDENT ARTISTS SHOW 8000 PICTURES (By Associated Press) PARIS, March 7.—The high'cost of living has not discouraged young artists says Paul Signac, president of the Society of Independent Artis ts, whose thirty-fourth annual ex position opened recently. Here are represented 1610 artis ts who exhibit nearly 6,000 works in the huge galleries of the Grand Palais. Of them all, only one was unable to pay the fee of .fifty francs for hanging hie pleture. No prises are offered to exhibitors nor is there any jury to pass on pictures, AH comers may hang their qreatlons. The spirit o ffairness goes to the extent of arranging the pic tures without respect to light. They are hung in the alphabetical order of iheir makers hamcs. .Nor is nat ionality considered I. Fully one third of ihe exhibitors are foreigners. While President Signac affirmed that the exhibition showed the trend of art back to normal colors and old art forms, this Statement wa$ hardly borne hut by the paintings shown. There were cubic houses, cubit pets, along with many .other cubic trees, cubic people and pubic ear things that visitors could not inden tify. The striking point of the exhi'o-' ition to the casual art critic appear ed to be its liberty of expression, involving all the art forms known and applied for the past ten centur ies. Many of the paintings were done in dark colors, and looked for ah the world like old masters.. ---- GENERAL ASSEMBLY STANDS ADJOUDNED RALEIGH, Mar. 6.—North Caro lina general assembly adjourned sin ■ die.

(By Associated Press)' MOSCOW. Mar. 6.—High rentals exacted.by the government, and high taxes imposed upon business brought abput the closing of shops all OW Russia during the month of January Private merchants who last summer wore smiles of contentment and jolt that the era of free trado meant high profits and a return to the con ditidns o the days before the war, are now lagubribouslv wondering how to make ends meet.

Man*. «—The harm less bromide that kings and queens an human, just like anybody else, was worked overtime in the days that followed the advent of Prin cess Mary’* new son.

Lord Lascelles stuck around the house al! day, pacing from room to room. On that afternoon majesties paid a visit and then motored back to Buckingham Palace. After din' ner they came again. At 10:30 o’ clock Lord Lascelles inquired how everything was going, and Dr. Sim son told him “everything is quite normal”. For the next hour and fif teen minutes the king betrayed con siderable apprehension. Then came the news that the baby was born, and that it was a boy. “Iam a grand-father,” the King remarked “But I am a father,” said Lord Lascelles, and congratulations were exchanged. Then the Queen declared, “I do not care if I am a grand-mother or not, but it is a beautiful baby.” And the next day baby talk was, the language of the kingdom.
