A great factor in the education of
the American public in art, is the
American Federation of Art. This is
an association of the leading artists
and sculptors of the United States. The
general headquarters is at Washing
ton, D. c., and there are branch head
quarters in several other parts of the
United States. This federation con-
stantly keeps several collections of
painting and sculpture travelling about
the country, also art lectures illustrated
with lantern slides. Any of these may
be secured by clubs and art societies,
especially If the latter are afflicted
with the Federation of Women's clubs.
Recently the members of the To-
peka Art Guild and their friends were
given an opportunity of attending the
American Federation of Arts lantern
slide lecture on American sculpture,
which was brought to Topeka thru the
efforts of the Woman's club.
The lecture was given at Boswell
Hall, Washburn college, thru the kind
ness of the art director of that institu-
ton. There was a large attendance
lcf prominent people of the city. all of
whom expressed themselves as being
much pleased with the entertainment.
The Woman's club intends shortly to
secure a slide lecture on American
painting and one on civic art.
Because of inability to secure a
IOOEl lot eAHiDltlOn purposes
in the center of the city, the Topeka
Art Guild has given up the project
of holding an exhibition of the works
of Kansas artists this month. Instead.
the committee in charge has decided
to combine the exhibit of Kansas
artists with the next travelling exhibit
ton that the guild may bring to To-
pekd.
A travelling collection of pencil
sketches, charcoal drawings, oil paint
ings, designs, and art craft work, the
work of members of the Delta Phi
Delta sorority, of the United States.
was exhibited at Boswell Hall, Wash
burn college,, Friday and Saturday
of this week. Along with the Delta
Phi Delta exhibit was shown a group
of Japanese sflhouettes, water colorS
and prints from the Thayer collection
of objects of art at the Kansas State
to the general public as was also the
delightful talk given at $3.50 Friday
afternoon by Mrs. H. B. Thayer, of
Kansas City, Mo-, on the japanese
silhouettes, water colors, etc. Mrs.
Thayer is the donor of the Thayer col
lection to K. u.
Mrs. L. D. Whittemore of the Wash
burn college fine arts department. is
arranging a series of five lectures for
children, on art and art history. The
lectures will be one half hour in length
and will be given Thursday afternoons.
The lecture course is being arranged
at the request of some of the faculty
of Washburn who desired such i'm
struction for their children but is open
to any Topeka child.

the Rev. Parker Moon, who for full
half century has devoted his life and
talents to Sunday school and organi-

"Uncle Parker" as he is more famil-

ged Quaker stock, and there is not a
better known or more highly respect

In referring to his remarkable res
toration to health by Tanlac, he said
"About five years ago suffered
a general breakdown. Ny principal
trouble was nervous indigestion. My
appetite was very poor and my food
seldom agreed with me, and had to
live on a very restricted diet. I suf.

badly constipated most of the time

Mr.. Jones, who, by the way, detest-

to sit in front of the fire and watch
other people do it, wanted the baby
named plain "Bill.'
Mrs. Jones had different views.
Il shall name the baby William Oil
yer Robert Kenneth" she asserted.
"But why all those names?" asked
her husband.
Because" replied Mrs. Jones, tart
ly, "if you look at the initials you Will
find that they spell Work. so perhaps.
when baby grows up, he will take to
it better than his father"
