Our Cover THE PAINTING By permission of the Metropolitan Mu -eum of Art, New York City, we ha ve reproduced on the cover of our magazine this month a detail from a Cassone Panel by a follower of Pesellino. The panel from which the detail on the cover was taken, is shown above. This panel depicts the story of the Argonauts after they arrived in Colchis. You will note, it is painted in the continuous style, with many scenes taking place in the same picture. At the lower left, Jason, at the head of his band of heroe and demigods, , presents himself to King Aeetes, from whom he hopes to obtain the Golden Fleece. The extreme right shows a part of the palace and Jason kneeling to the king; at the foot of the stair he is mounting his horse, and farther to the left eros i ng the draw­bridge. In the middle, we see the Gro e of Are with to\-vered wall, the Golden Fleece hangjng from its central tree. Beneath it, Jason is busy kiUing the knights spruno- from. drag n's teeth. At the left are Diana and her hounds, a piece of Medea's sorcer. and the Argonauts on the shore. The detail, shown on our cover is a part of panel near the stairs at the extreme right . • TliE ARTIST Pes llino, 11, -is the ni A namte of Fran esco de Pes llo, a great Italia-n painter of the Florentin.

XXV NUMBER 6 READ the papers every day, and oft encounter tales which show there's hope for every jay who in life's battle fails. I've just heen reading of a gent who joined the has-been ranks, at fifty year without a cent, or credit at the banks. But undismayed he buckled down, refusing to be beat, and captured fortune and renown ; he's now on Easy Street. Men say that fellows down . . . and out ne 'er leave the rocky track, but facts will show, beyond a doubt, that has-beens do come back. I know, for I who write this rhyme, when forty-odd years old, wa down and out, without a dime, my whiskers full of mold. By black disaster I was trounced until it jarred my spine; I was a failure so pronounced I didn't need a sign. And after I had soaked my coat, I said (at forty-three), "I'll see if I can catch the goat that has escaped from me." I labored hard; I strained my dome, to do my daily grind, until in triumph I came home, my billy-goat behind. And any man who still has health may with the winners stack, and have a chance at fame and wealth-for has-beens do come "back. Walt Mason .
