Francis Brown, director of the pub

at the John Heron Art institute, in
Indianapolis, won first prize for a
beautiful watercolor landscape ex-
bited at the art show of the state
fair in Indianapolis.
Thousands Of persons are attend
ing the art show in the large GAL
lery that has been arranged at the
fairgrounds for the display Of painting
and sculpture by Indiana artists
The character of the exhibit is higher
this year than ever before. Mrs M
F. Johnston, of this city, as judge of
paintings and sculpture selected the
work for display, and awarded the
prizes. Instead Of arranging a jury
Of selection and awards as has been
the previous custom, one person was
selected for each section Of work, and
judges that section.
An excerpt from the Indianapolis
Star says: at is regretted that nc
work is shown by a number Of our
we'll known older artists-no Steele
no Bundy, ne'er a picture by Otto
Stark, nor by J. Otis Adams. And
neither is there a single canvas by
that young landscape artist of the pro.

And they seemed such unaffected and
simple young things, all of them.
Happy just to be alive and allowed to
play about in their own way under the
open skies.
After we had walked long way
we came to an inn with wide YER

Here we had our dinner and sat and
talked until the moon came up stealth
