PAGE 6 March 21, 1956. LET’S TELL OUR FRIENDS Under the above heading, William Penn will bring to its readers in each forthcoming issue, a brief sketch drawn from Hungarian history, of personalities, events and contributions to the arts and sciences which over the centuries have advanced civili­zation, increased learning and en­riched the culture of the world. We will not recount historical events from Hungary’s annals of 1000 years, nor how those happen­ings have served to bring about pro­gress of the Hungarian nation, all of which are our priceless heritage; but rather, noteworthy factual a­­chievements which deserve the grati­tude of other nations as well as world-wide recognition. Those in­dividuals which we will present to you have become international figures through the widespread in­fluence of their accomplishments. The purpose of this series of articles is to acquaint or renew our acquaintance with well-known and prominent Hungarian identities, as well as our historical and cultural backgroud, to which we can point with pride and discuss when the oc­casion arises. We all, even those who are Ame­ricans by birth and can not speak or understand our forefathers’ lan­guage, are genuinely interested in learning the history and past of that country to which we claim a bond, even if only through parents and grandparents. Just dancing the Hun­garian csárdás or appreciating good Hungarian cooking and baking is not enough. Our desires would search deeply for reasons that have made the country of our fathers respected and honored. This is because the deeds of her sons for centuries have edified, led and enriched humanity in all fields of endeavor. Those of our readers who are not of Hungarian extraction will find it interesting to learn of people and events which have had international significance and at the same time claim Hungarian origin. However, this column will not attempt to group people or events in any specific categories or chronological sequences; rather, we will present a variety of subjects in order to awaken the di­versified interests of all our readers. So it is with much pleasure and an­ticipation that we introduce to you, “LET’S TELL OUR FRIENDS...”, hqping that you will find in it something interesting, new and edifying. LET’S TELL OUR FRIENDS... that one of the world-famous paint­ers is Hungarian Michael Munkácsy (MUNKÁCSY MIHÁLY), who ap­peared on the horizon in the last century. He chose subjects of his native land which include “Village Rooster”, “Last Day of a Condemned Man”, “Women Picking Lint”, and similar scenes. It was in Paris that he began to portray on, canvas re­ligious themes with which he at­tained world recognition. His painting of “Christ before Pilate”, which depicts that scene with intense dramatic clarity, is a proud possession of Wanamaker’s in Phila­delphia. During the Lenten season through Holy Week, public showing of the work enables anyone to see and appreciate this remarkable master­piece. We can tell our friends also to visit the New York Public Library, where his “Milton Dictating ’Para­dise Lost’ ” is hung in the main gal­lery; where hundreds pass daily and pause, admiring this classical pro­duction of our Hungarian painter.-------------------------------------------------------------------­­William Penn STATEMENT FOR THE MONTH OF DECEMBER, 1955 I.
