THE NATIVITY"
ON EXHIBITION
Constant Picture is
Being Shown at the
Ontario Store.

Another evidence of the fact that
r. b. Griffith realizes the big depart
ment store is a public institution is
evidenced by his bringing the world
famous painting, THE Nativity" by
the immortal Constant to Grand Forks
for the enjoyment and edification of
the general public. 1t would be inn
possible for many residents Of this city
to- even see so important and valuable
a canvas even If not brought to their
very doors.
In a specially arranged gallery on
the third floor Of this store, the pic
ture is correctly placed and lighted
and with nothing surrounding to de-
tract 1t looks not like a picture at all
but as though you were looking into
the door of the humble stable where
the Holy Mother sits on the straw in
the middle foreground holding the
child Jesus in her arms.
The door way is open. two shep-
herds dressed in the garb of oriental
sheep herders have entered, a third is
just outside the entrance. Joseph
kneels before the Holy Babe and
seems to motion to the shepherds to
not awaken him. The animals housed
in the stable are feeding in the gloomy
corners and sleepy eyed lambs and
sheep are lying and standing in the
soft light seeming to emanate from
the Christ Child. 1t is night and OUT
side you a feel your way into the
very darkened atmosphere as you
study the scene which shows some of
the turrcts and housetops of Bcthle-
hem.
There is no light apparent in the
interior except hat which radiates
from the child.
1t is a wonderful motif. with the
handling of a master. When Jean
Joseph BENJAMIN Constant died in
1902 France awakened to the fac hat
she had lost her greatest cOlOrist and
critic when she laid him to rest
among her dead emperors and great
est men. On exhibition without
charge for Il limited time on the third
floor of the Ontario store.

Conditions have made it certain
that a larger amount of money will
be needed this year.. if the work OF
the Associated Charities is to be ade,
quately carried on.
What Was Accomplished.
The Associated Charities did much
for the poor and needy of the city
during the past year. The visiting
nurse called on hundreds of the sick
school children have been examined
and prescribed for; young girls wer,
protected, delinquent children were
taken in charge, under the order O!
the juvenile court, and helped, sensi.
tive people in need of help were
sought out n provided for; hun
dreds of applications for worker!
We're filled, strangers We're provided
with employment and given help tina
kept them from want or from Jail.
The association accomplished much
more during the year, and. witt
greater things ahead, the officers fee
they are justified in greater supper
cn the part of the townspeople. The!
have had to keep the offices oper
during the entire summer. and this
together with several other items
has caused an added expense and thu
made the work of the association
more efficient. but it has also made
it imperative that more money BE-
secured for the next years work..
