Excerpt from Walks and TalksThe true test of really great things is their simplicity. They are so easily understood by everybody. In that wonderful art gallery at the World's Fair, it was the simple pictures that drew the crowds, the ones that all understood, and crowded upon each other to look at.

The event was the first of the kind in this particu lar branch of the Weaver family, and, as is always the case, there was such rejoicing as does not come with the recurrence of like epi sodes.
