The Times of Wednesday reproduces a photograph of a proposed

national War memorial for Italy. The design, which has been accepted by a " national Committee," is of a " Via Cracis "—and is to be erected on Monte San Michele, overlooking the site of the battlefield of the Carso. It will constitute a sort of " Sacro Monte." The central group of the design, by M. Eugenio Baroni (a Genoese), looks, from the Times illus- tration, pleasantly grandiose, but unpleasantly naturalistic.
