is known mostly as figure painter
"That, F" says Mrs. Webster, "is what

And as this busy and vitally inter
ested woman, and her able artist assist
ant, Mrs. J.. NJ. Getchell, carried on
their work of welcome and instruction,
implanting an idea here, calling at
tention TO a beauty there, the room
attractive and credtable as it is,
dwindled, and one caught the vision
of these women, a building by itself
where the are works of greater Ore
gon may be suitably housed; an art
department which is a power in Oregon,
which has ministered abundantly to
the material as well as the aesthetic
needs of the people; an art loving peo-
pie in Oregon VINO have transplanted
the beauty of their trees, their rivers
theirs mountains into terms that en-
rich their business ana dignity their
lives; and (dare one whisper it) an art
center at the state fair which may en-
body the art aspirations of the people
and with them one accents the peo-
ple-of the great northwest.
Among the pictures that have at
tracted much attention is the Passing
Day by Clyde Leon Keller, of Portland.
This picture is paineed in the broad
manner and has much charm. The rift
in the clouds illumines the whole land
scape and gives it strength. Another
landscape of Mr.. Keller's, trees on
river bank, is very suggestive. In com.
position it is excellent. Mr.. Fulton of
Eugene has shown a rock effect with
the sea beyond; which is of decided
merit. r. Munroe Gilbert of Salem,
has ON exhibition one of his recent New
port studies that he has touched up.
1t has attracted much attention, EN-
phatically so on the distant light eff
fects. Mrs V. Webb of Seaside has
marine Of delightful coloring.
Miss Jean Stuart of Portland had
three water color sketches that were
very well done, and received much fav.
orable notice. The camp was charm.
ing thing, and branch of plums deli
cate in coloring.
Mr. Thomas professional photogra-
pher of Newport, had display of
photographs, marines, that was much
admired; as was also the Photo Art
Association display of Salem.
Something that received much com.
mendation was a display of cartoons,
by Master Phillips, fifteen year old
boy of Portland These cartoons are
unusually good, and directly in line
with work that the art department de-

that put into practical and visible form
the main outlines. There were many,
many individuals who contributed to
the success of this year s state fair, but
standing prominent among these is Mrs.
Edyth Tozier Weatherrod, the only wo-
man member Of the official state fair
board. Some have spoken, and Others
perhaps have wondered at the evident
touch of woman s hand, here. there
and everywhere, about the grounds, the
buildings, tine exhibits, aye and the
events themselves at the fair, this year.
