Show J BEAVER PRESS NEW YORK HISTORY OUR COMIC SECTION FROM EARLY DAYS Museum Groups Vividly Recall the Past Among the tattered letters, odd d maps and prints, portraits and other fragmentary memorabilia which line the walls of the new Museum of the City of New York there runs the series of model groups In which Dwight Franklin and Ned J. Burns have recaptured the long past of the greatest city of the world. They are delicate little panoramas, conbeautifully structed and finely modeled and breathing a sudden life and vitality into the dead relics about them as they repeat the veritable scenes amid which those old letters passed or those quaint dresses were worn. Teter Stuyvesanfs sword looks simply like something In a museum until near It one sees the governor himself, fully as vivid as life (if as large), only about storming over Colonel Cartwright's demand for surrender while the Seventeenth century sunshine lies placidly upon the ramparts of NJeuw Amsterdam fort outside the Events in the Lives of Little Mm time-darkene- one-tent- h and t loaned i ln& to pa, !eft strict, near door.

In the model those times are as alive as last night's supper club. So are the pleasant blue waters and wooded slopes of the East river (so much pleasanter than today) as they are seen through the windows of the Beekman mansion, while General Howe, interrupted with wineglass in hand and a mot upon his lips, tosses the Irritated glance of authority over his shoulder to see vhat the guards have brought in. It's an Infernal young rebel suspected of name of Nathan Hale. One almost hears the voices and one suddenly understands a lot about the American Revolution. Alive, too, are the wateifront crowds under the long jlbbooms on South street, or the Indians, three centuries earlier, in their encampment at Inwood. These models are an essential and fascinating part of the new exhibit, something which distinguishes it from those of other museums. They give an Incomparably better idea of the times they portray than do, for example, the models of old London in the great London museum; and they suggest how wonderful will be the record which this museum will contain when time has enriched its collections and broadened their scope to cover the countless fields of New York's life and activities down to the present time. As yet, of course, there are many lacunae. The contemporary scene is hardly touched. ft if II WMctrn Newspaper Cnloa KSf IHE FEATHERHEADS t THESE BLAMED 3 a VISIT'S M ;1 ME A PAIN l SlF V.
