The person who is the point of cen tral interest in the pictured setting of Italian art and furnishings is not some body's minister plenipotentiary and en voy extraordinary to the court of King Victor Emmanuel, but George McManus entirely at home. • The creditor of “Bringing Up Father," “Tho Newlyweds,” “Let George Do It, ’ and other works of the imagination and industry, lives in Central I’ark, south, and does most of his contriving at a window high above the the streets, to be away from Us noise and motion and wide enough to appear to let the park in. As he says to himself; “The landlord doesn't own the park, but he makes me pay for it, and it's worth it.’’ When McManus first began telling the world in pictures how many laughs per hour It had in it, he used to draw them anywhere, mostly in a I’ark Row news paper office, and in a general air of commotion and urgency. He says now that's bad for art—that to ask a man to keep his thoughts fresh in a place crowded with editors, art managers, ar gument, cigarette smoke and horse plaj and amateur oratory is like asking a man with ten children o make his will at a football game. NEEDS QI lET PLACE ALL BY HIMSELF. You've got to be in a quiet place by yourself, he maintains, if you want to do yourself any sort of reasonable jus tice as a serious artist. Because what the nonprofessional mind accepts and de scribes as comic art is serious art in the fullest meaning and extension of that term, the most exacting and exhausting and uncompromising difficult art known to the whole business of being an artist. The dogma to the effect that he who laughs last laughs best holds all the way through the making of humorous pictures for the dear public, tat the laughter die down for the space of a gesture in one of the pictured characters or be wanting in the roll of an eye or the twist of a • lip, and instead of mer riment there's melancholy, and nobody but the artist is to blame And above all the last laugh at the last point in the last minute of the last picture in a series has got to be thj best laugh and ring absolutely true to life. If it isn't i the whole affair flivvers, j And McManus, perched at his window, I comprehends this, and there are days I when he takes the work of half a day j off his drawing board, tears it carefully | into smLli pieces and goes out to a | theater or perhaps only for a walk in i the park and devotes himself to forget DANDERINE Stops Hair Coming Out; Thickens, Beautifies. i I 35 cents buys a bottle of “Danderine” at' any drug store.

Just how he arrives at the com positions which do please him all the way through he doesn't know exactly. He says there's a right and wrong way to do it, but there isn't any formula. HE DOESN’T KNOW HOW HE DOES IT. “Sometimes,” he explains In trying to explain at all, “a grand idea hits you.
