that of the Keramic Art League which
gives it's formal opening this evening
in the parlors of the Starr Piano Com
panys rooms
The main feature of the rooms used
for the various exhibits is in the
beauty and simplicity of their ar
rangement. All the local artists will
be represented, also many of the
best china painters in Indiana, includ-
ing Mrs. Palmer, former president Of
the Keramic Association of Indianap-
oils, Mrs Laura II. Day, Mrs. Mary
Carver, Mrs. o. c. Wilcox, and Mrs.
Orndorff. all of whom are from In
dianapolis. One of the exhibits of
Keramic art which bids fair to be
among the finest, will be that of Mrs.
Whitridge, of which the greater part
will be that of work done by her dur
ing the past year
Mrs. Laura II. Day will send her
exhibit of decorated glass which was
awarded one of the medals at the st.

Is one of, il not the best, Richmond
has ever been fortunate enough to Sc
cure There will also be display Of
Figure Painting, the work of Indian
apolis artists, from the Chicago stu
do of Mr. Swartz. Another exhibitor
of much note Is Miss Evelyn Beachey,
instructor in Keramic art in he Chi
cago Art Institute. There is quite
an extensive display of gilt and vari-
colored china, in tea services, urns,
vases and pitchers. all of which are
objects well worth mentioning. In
the parlors is an interesting collection
of oils and water colors. Among the
local artists, Eyden has three oils and
water color; Nordyke, four oils and
water color; Miss Newman two oils
and a water color; two oils by Gregg
and three oils by Mrs. Elmer Egge-
meyer. Mr.. Bundy has four oils and
water coIor.
While in all of Bundy's canvasses is
fully justified his repute as an artist
true to nature, n his twilight is,
perhaps the most striking expression
of his power. Girardin has four oils,
two of which were exhibited in the
ClnClnndIl AFL SluD eAIlDll.
There will be shown in addition to
those mentioned four pictures by Mr..
and Mrs. Cole, noted for their beauty
of tone, especially Mr.. Coles Study of
Boats" and his Forest Scene" full
of repose and tranquility in which
twilight have been rendered by a
master hand. Mr.. and Mrs. Cole were
both students of Whistler.
Mrs. Cole was formerly Miss Dou-
gan, a daughter of DR.. Dougan of
Denver, and a niece of Mr.. John b.
Dougan of this city

mentioned. Mr.. Ellwood Morris has
