The art exhibition given by Miss
Aurora Dixon at the Hall Saturday
afternoon and evening, the latter
time, in connection with the ice cream
sale, was highly enjoyed and appreei-
ated by u large number of visitors.
The three large paintings IN oil at.
tracted especial attention, Each of
thctwo pairs Of horses was 80 lifelike
that they seemed nlmos, able TO step
out from the canvas. Every line, |
every sinew and muscle was alert, in.
stinct with life, the facial expression
being matched by that Of the whole
body. The larger pair seemed to be
the favorites. The scene of the COWS
in the pasture, unfortunately, could
not be adequately lighted by the facili.
ties provided in the Hall, and did not,
therefore, receive the eommendatory
attention it deserved. In addition to
these large pictures there were about
10 smaller ones in water eolors and IN
oil, views of nature, wood and water
scenes predominatlng. Several views
from around this village were recog
nized with interest. The scene in the
upper Mississippi, with the verdant
shore and large white rock mlrrored
in the water, was perhaps the general
favorite. Several of the scenes in oil
were of the impresslonist type, done
with the pallet knife, highly colored
and notable for their striking contrast,
and intense effect. The pictures were
very tastefply arranged and draped.
Miss Dixon also sang three solos, with
out accompaniment, showing an unus-
ually fine voice, well trained and
under remarkable control. The second
number was an exceedingly difficult
one, but was executed with rare talent.
Miss Dixon deserves great deal Of
credit and she has our sincere graft
tude and appreciation for her faithful
md untiring efforts so freely given.
