the efforts of little known artists, and the
public will be invited to compare and Judge
them fairly, without knowing who the
painters are.

the promoters, however, to manufacture
pitfalls for the critics. There will be no
spool pictures or limitations Of acknowIs
edged masters. Their object is the 1auda~
BILE one Of allowing the spectator to view
| the picture without having his judgment
| biased by regulations.
The exhibitions will contain represen.
| tat1ve specimens of practically all the
schools Of contemporary British art, which
for the purpose of the exhibition, has been
divided into three groups-the academic,
the intermediate and the modern. Charles
! Sims, r. A.; Professor Tonks and Roger

| they will choose what they consider to be
| the best works available in each group,

A year ago he left for the family estate
in Galicia, but his presence was not desired
