Old Insurance Account
Funds Are Collected

The supreme court has sustained
the findings of the referee in the cases
brought against Gage and Stanton
counties to recover what has been
known as "old insurance account
funds" These were test cases and
the decisions will affect number of
Nebraska counties.
The decision of the supreme court
in the "old insurance account funds"
cases is very gratifying to w. B.
Howard, former state auditor as they
were instituted during his term of Of
fee. When Mr. Howard became state
auditor four years ago there was
something like 100000 outstanding
on these accounts, no effort formerly
having been made to collect and cover
the money into the state treasury
The move upon the part of Mr.. How
ard was unpopular in the counties
owing the money, but notwithstand-
ing, he pressed the suits, with the re-
suit announced by the supreme court
Mr.. Howard is in receipt of letter
from w. H. Smith, present state audi
tor, who very highly commcnds the
policy pursued in bringing the suits
and in pressing them through the
courts. He adds that as the success
sor of Mr.. Howard, he has followed
the plans outlined by his predecessor
and that he will continue along the
lines so inauguratcd.

Ice Harvest Hereabouts
Is Practically C0mpIet,

The local ice harvest has been prac-
tically completed and it is asserted
that the crop is OF about the best
quality ever garnered hereabouts. For
a month the weather, while not in
tensely cold, has been steady, con-
stantly freezing the ice thicker.
The Omaha ice houses are all filled
to the roofs and all that remains to
complete the harvest is closing UP
some odds and ends. The packers
are about through cutting and so are
the railroads, they having all put up
about the normal quantity.
While the ice prices for next sum-
mer have not been announced, it is
said at the selling Offices that un-
doubtedly they will be about the same
as last, at the rate of 40 cents per 100
pounds for small deliveries at resi-
dences.

ART Is AYOCATION
OF MANY OMAHANS
Splendid Exhibit of Omaha Art
Gid Reveals Still Another
Phase of Progress.
TALK MUNY ART GALLERY
BY A. R. GROH.


Let US be patrons OF art today. Let
us contemplate the productions of
Omaha painters. Come with me to
the Omaha Art Gild's fifth annual ex-
hibition in the gallery Of Milton OAR
ling's store, 2030 Farnam street.
Doane Powell, Bee cartoonist and
president of the gid, asked me to 60
last Monday. He asked me Tuesday.
He asked me Wednesday. So ! went.
And I'm glad | went. For the pictures
are really good. -.
OF course, | don't know anything
about art. But | know | enjoyed look
ing at the pictures. When | came
back told Powell which ones liked
best.
But there's one there that's a

That's the best picture in the ex-
hibit," said Powell. Pronounced so
by artists. Wonderful coloring
Splendid technique~
changed the subject.
Forty-three paintings are shown in
the gallery, by twenty-one artists, all
Omahans. Think of that! Art is -four
ishing here in the midst of agriculture
and commerce.
A remarkable feature, as Mr.. Powell
points out, is that twenty of these
artists have other occupations and
pursue art in their leisure hours. Some
are business men, newspaper men.
decorators, teachers, students.

cause it is small. When one starts in

the Louvre.
In the Omaha Art Gid exhibit you
can take plenty of time to enjoy each
painting that you like. You may not
like the ones which the artists say
are the best. But what of that!
Right here lies much comfort for
him who is pursuing the long way of
art. If a man makes a pudding or
builds all automobile or fashions a
pair of shoes, the worth of his handi-
work is quickly put to the proof by
eating the pudding, riding in the auto
mobile or wearing the shoes.
But art lies in the uncharted regions
of beauty without such definite
standards by which to judge it. Rot

apicture. "Marvelousp cries another,
looking at the same picture.
Half the world may scorn an artists
work. And he can still comfort him
self. They have no eye for real
beauty" he can say. "Posterity shall
acclaim me. Rembrandt, Michae..
Angelo and da Vinci were also scorn-
ed in their day." o..
The art gid believes that Omaha
should have municipal art gallery.
Nearly score of the paintings in
the exhibit are western landscapes.
Tl.--e are some very fine portraits
that look just as good to me as some
have seen by Sargent and Velasquez.
Five hundred years hence they may be
acclaimed as old masters. Who
knows! And the millionaires of that
day may be buying them at 81, 100000
each. H.
