provided the men took a real interest
in the club and came around a good
deal at unexpected times. But this in
terest would undoubtedly add to the

develop that the Sketch Club would be
the most important of our art organi-
cations. There Is possibility. But
the matter must be very carefully con-
sidered, and in my opinion the direc-
tors have a momentous task before
them.
What kind of pictures will the peo-
pie of San Francisco demand in the

me this question, and | have only one
answer, The people will want the
same kind of pictures they have. al
ways wanted. No CONFUSION OF nature

The people who iost'their art treasures

they would even pay more for them
than they did in the first place. Pic
lures are not bought as other things
are bought They reflect the character
OF the purchaser almost as much as
they do the character of the artist.

everything in the fire, Mr.. Nelson was
not discouraged. He met with a few
other reverses Immediately afterward,
but also recovered from them He
spent few weeks in Los Angeles and
obtained number of sketches that are

color. Then the summer school work
came along.
While in Berkeley Mr.. Nelson has

IT Is likely that there will be some
changes, radical changes, in the clubs
work, Miss Anne M Bremen, president
OF the club, states that several plans
are under consideration, all of them
having as, an, end the broadening of
the Sketch Clubs influence.
one, of these plans is to make the
club a. mixed club fof both mon and
women. Such an important change
could not fail to affect the clubs flu
ture to the utmost. 1t would either
put the club on very high plane or 1T
would ruin 1t. In case OF this Kind
there is no going back. With men In
the club much of the old social life
would disappear and "the girls would
never feel that they were In the same
