AN EVENING WITH
PICTURES OF FAMOUS
AMERICAN ARTISTS

Quite large and, more or less, APP
preciative audience assembled at Rink
Hall Wednesday evening to see the
sixty pictures by American artists.
The pictures were thrown on the
screen in their exact colors and being
so greatly enlarged all of the imper
fections were brought out. The
slides are taken from the original
paintings of the best American art
lists, but those who have been fortu
nate enough to see a very few OF the
originals would not have recognized
them on the slides. Few of us know
the names of the modern artists who
are living and painting at the present
time, but we are mighty glad to knew
that they can paint just as fine pic
lures as any European artist. The
American names are so easy to for
get because they are just everyday
names. Among the pictures shown
were a number of very fine portraits,
many MISUNDERSTANDING scenes of
town and country in various portions
of the United States-several pictures
of the ocean, considered among the
very finest marines in the world and a
few religious subjects. The most de-
lightful or them all were the pictures
of children, or Mother and Children"
Shadow Pictures" "The Boys Best
Time "Carnation-Lily Rose" PLAY
mates" and Alice" The slides show
ed a great difference in the manner
artists put their paints on the canvas.
In some the paint seemed to play
tricks and be applied with short strokes
of the brush. In others it was thin
and fiat Some looked blurred at first
glance but became clear as you kept
on looking. Some showed much de
tail and many were what are called
"Impres sionistic" "Impressionism is
sort of pictorial stenography dis
dainful of details which rapid and syn
thetic vision cannot seize" If you
make ring of your thumb and fore
finger to serve for a frame and hold
it about foot from your eyes, then
squirt your eyes until they are al
most closed and look across our
valley toward the mountains or across
the street at the houses you will get an
impression of the sky and the color of
the mountains and the general color
of the ground-the highest and bright
est lights are the trees and houses.
the deepest shadows, etc, but not the
detais-such is the manner of the i'm
pressionist pictures When scanned
closely they look queer and mixed up
and indistinct, but a longer gaze with
half-closed eyes brings out the i'm
preston that the artist wished to con
vey. These slides are loaned to Wo-
mems Clubs throughout the country by
the Art Committee of the General
Federation of Women's Clubs They
were used in Yerington by the Play
ground Committee to increase the
efficiency of the playground and o
give the children more fun Mr.. Lit
tell very kindly allowed them to be run
in conjunction with his films and the
Woman's Club is very appreciative of
his generosity. This is the third art
exhibit that has been loaned to the
Woman's Club of Yerington Those
of you who do not attend these loan
exhibits will regret your lost oppor-
tunities, as they are superior.

Good Hints About Fencing.

When building fences note the
shape of the fields. because it has
much to do with the amount of fencing
and material required to inclose or re-
construct it. Thus: A square ten
acre field is 40 rods each way, and will
therefore need hat mile of fencing,
A ten-acre field four times as long
as wide.is 80x20 rods, and will conse-
quently require 200 rods of fence, or
40 rods more than before; so that a
square field needs less fencing than an
oblong one of the same size, This is
a point not often thought of by good
many.

The Case of L. L. Cantelou.

The case of l.. L. Cantelou, Claren-

plant for several manths. | bought a
