suits. She shows a miniature of an
unusually large size of Joel Chandler

life some years ago, and three amaz-
ingly interesting st edies full of char
acter and personality of elderly noun

well as a study of a young woman in
blue ;3nd white.
OF unique interest in this collection

Strong work has been contributed
by Gertrude r. Bourne of Boston, who

character. but each broadly handled
and impressive.
Miss Bertha Perrie is represented by
two studies of Gloucester fishing
boats. both made at Gloucester dur
ing the past summer. They are rather
gray in tone. but show interesting
treatment of the reflections in the wa
ter and are so well drawn. so true and
sincere that they will be found to
have lasting attraction.

24th Annual Presentation,
Mostly by Local Artists,
at Corcoran Gallery.

The Washington Water Color Club
opens it's twenty-fourth annual exhi-
bition in the Corcoran Gallery of Art
and colorful showing. There are
about one hundred paintings. thirty or
more prints and twenty miniatures,
the majority by local artists
The New York and Philadelphia
clubs are holding their annual exhibi-
tions at about this same time, and the
expresSmen's strike in New York has
prevented the shipment of pictures
from that great art center. so if this
display is somewhat less notable than
usual it is not strange.
The fact is, however. that surpris-
ing number of subjects have come
OF the strong former exhibitors are
missed. there are a number of clever
new ones whose works lend diversity
