WAR MEMORIAL TABLET IN
THE ROYAL SAVOY CHAPEL
BY GILBERT BAYES

Schools, whose sole aim appeared to be
to produce teachers who again taught
teachers and so on, never producing an
artist who could teach, but making the
" teacher" the end in view. The
Principal, Mr. Frederick Walenn, gave
an account of the year's work. Amongst
the prize winners were Miss M. Lane
Foster, Miss Nelson Dawson, Miss Russell,
Miss D. Jerrold, and Mr. Onabolu (from
Lagos). The competitions were judged by
Mr. George Clausen, R.A., Mr. Hatherell,
Mr. Goetze, and Mr. L. Richmond. a

The memorial illustrated above as having
been designed by Mr. Gilbert Bayes was
unveiled by the Earl of Athlone a few
weeks ago in the Royal Chapel of the
Savoy, the names it bears being those of
men associated with the Chapel who fell
in the war. It is executed in a warm tinted
alabaster set in bronze. The centre figure
of St. George is in bronze and enamel with
a little inlay in the mail at the throat. In
the lunette above against a mosaic back-

ground is a very simply treated line of
marching men in bronze flanked to right
and left by the lamps of sacrifice and
freedom. The two circles at either side of
the lower inscription are in bronze also
with enamel background, and in one the
Lamb—the Chapel symbol—is figured, and
in the other the English Lion. On a shield
below St. George a small Dreadnought
stands for the Navy. The whole memorial
is about 6 ft. in length. 00a

Two bronzes by Mr. Bayes—Sigurd and
Artemis (both illustrated in one of our
issues of 1917)—have been purchased by
the Corporation of Liverpool for that
City's permanent collection. 0 0

The first show of the Society of Graphic
Art, which was the subject of an article in
our last issue, was a far greater success than
one expected, and it would not be going too
far to say that no more important display
of its kind has been held in London for
many years, if ever. No doubt the chief
factor in its success as an exhibition was
