THE ART OF TODAY As the parnter speaks to us through lrne and color so the sculptor rexeals hrs message through beauty of form He who has not learned to love sculpturrng and to read thrs message mrsses a whole world of beauty and truth In the hrstory of thrs great art as we trace rt from rts frrst crude begrn nrngs we frnd the expressron of the noblest thoughts and asprratrons of thc people among whom rt has flourrshed The art of sculpturrng rs far more ancrent than xsrrtten hrstory and we havc no rccords of rts begrnnrngs Perhaps the same rnstrnct whrch leads chrldren to shape sand or clav rnto forms whrch rmrtate natural obJects led prrmrtrve man to fashron hrs frr st rude wor ks of sculpture But rt rs not untrl some rdea some deeper sprrrt enters rnto rt that sculpture becomes a frne art In Egypt when we frnd remarns of art even 4 000 years old rt was the belref rn the rmmortalrty of the soul that chreflv rnsprred the sculptor Durabrlrts was the chref qualrtx sought and attarned by the Fgyptrans The art of the Babylonrans rs almost as old as that of the Egyptrans They were especrally fond of representrng great muscular strength The As ssrrans and Chaldeans contrnued these tradrtrons and also showed great skrll rn the sculpturrng of anrmals The Greeks learned much from these older peoples but therr earlv works of art were crude to an amazrng degree Gradually however they developed a perfectron rn sculpturrng whrch had never been seen before and rn some respects has never been equaled srnce Durrng the Mrddle Ages the beautrful Chrrstran churches were made strll more beautrful by a multr tude of carvrngs and statues N0 great rndrvrdual works were produced such as the Greeks and Romans gave to the world The Romans also helped the world rn the art of sculpturrng Thus sculpturrng has passed down through the ages to us each one grvrng rn turn The world has many great pleces of art today but the brggest preces of sculpturrng rn the world s hr ton wrll be the Stone Mountarn memorral to the confederacv Thrs rs berng done by Borglum and hrs assrstants who are xerv capable and competent Thrs memorral to the confcderacy has dwarfed Fgxpts mrghtrest pharaohs rnto rnsrgnrfrcance Greater br far than the stupendous monuments rn Asra and rn Yucatan Larger and more rmposrng than the glorres that belonged to Greece and the grandeurs that represented Rome Such wrll be the Stone Mountarn memorral xshrch rs 18 mrles east of Atlanta Georgra Stone Mountarn 1000 feet hrgh rs thc largest srngle prece of granrte rn the world so hard and unxreldmg that mrllrons of rears erosron hare P rgc Tuentx rx scarcely made a dent rn rt Thrs grgantrc mass whrch has been a ner er ceasrng source of studx and speculatron for men drops on rts northern face rn a sheer naked precrprce Across the face of thrs on an rnclrned plane from northeast to southwest wrll be carxed the memorral at least 1500 frgures of whrch the greatest wrll be that of General Robert E Lee nearly 200 feet hrgh From a drstance of a mrle these frgures wrll appear lrfe srze The confederate army rnfantrx artrllery and cavalrx revrewed bv leaders of the lost cause Lee Jefferson Davrs and other noted captarns wrll compose the memorral VS hen completed the memorral wrll be nearly 1800 fcet long and rt wrll take srx to ten wears to chrsel out the frgurcs The Qtone Mountarn project was concervcd rn 1916 when the Daughters of the Confederacv asked Mr Borglum to carve the head of Lee on the clrff M Borglum went down looked lt over and then sard rt vsould be rmpossrble The head would be urte lost amrd thrs expanse of granrte no matter ow large rt was he sard What vou ought to have up there he added rs a whole ar mv All rrght came the prompt reply ' put an army The celebrated sculptor and Lester P Barlow one of hrs chref ardes went to work and therr work was well under way when the U S got rnto the war and the proposrtron was lard by for a trme It was resumed at the conclusron of hostrlrtres and wrll move steadrlv forward to completron Presrdent Hardrng gave the memorral an enthusr Wtridrndorsement as the erghth wonder of the or It IS estrmated that the entrre
