review OF the display at the gallery in
the new high school building. 1t will
be followed by an exhibit of Rich

exhibit possibly opening a day or two
before Thanksgiving and extending
for three or possibly four weeks. AS
much preparation is being made for
the coming and purely local exhibit as
there was for the exhibit just closed.
The officials and members of the
art association are more than pleased
with the exhibit Just closed. The at
tendance was large. possibly not SO
great as in years previous. but those
who were guests of the association
seemed to have more definite pur-
pose in view in their visits. The diff.
ferent pictures were all by leading
artists and they were studied care
fully. Interest which the school chill
dren displayed in the exhibit was very
gratifying to the association. Another
thing which pleased the association
members greatly were the comments
which were made on the gallery by
noted visitors. including 'Menry Turner

financial questions. Owing to unfor.
seen reasons several OF the board
members were unable to attend and
the selection of a picture and the
making Of q financial statement was
