ing that had II been a north bound
train instead Of one coming south, a
wreck would undoubtedly have occurred
as the switch after having been partly
thrown was blocked by an angle bar
that would have wrecked the train run
ming at the rate OF speed usually made
by north bound trains at this point
In breaking the lock and throwing
the switch the culprit disarranged the
block that was observed by the engineer
OF the south bound train who applied
brakes and came through the block
under n flag. The agent stated that
had the engineer hit the obstruction
Il would probably have resulted In no
harm as the switch would have been

Pronto, the challenge was accepted,

UPJOHN ART EXHIBIT DRAWS
A LARGE CROWD IN GLASGOW

The beautiful collection of painting
and drawings sent here by the Cen
trail Division of the American Red
Cross was exhibited at the Public
Library for five days. Much interest
was shown by the public, five hundred
people viewing them. Several hun
dred school children called at the H.
brary and were told the story of how
the paintings of the foreign children
were drawn during the war under the
most trying conditions. Miss Anna
Milo Upjohn, the artist, has shown
only the happy side of life in these
pictures.
The object in sending this exhibit
throughout the country is to show the
types of children who are the bene-
ficiaries Of the loving, unselfish work
of the school children as Junior Red
Cross workers in America. The COL
lection is valued at $4,000.
Comments from Milwaukee Tele-
gram concerning the Upjohn exhibit.)
The exhibit Of colored crayon and
charcoal sketches by Anna Milo Up
john has attracted hundreds of Mil
waukee children, who are daily coming
in to see the portraits of children of
foreign lands which are being shown
at the Layton Art Gallery. This COL
lection is exhibited through co-opera-
tion of three associations, the Layton
gallery giving space in the sculpture
gallery, the Milwaukee Art Institute
and Junior Red Cross cooperating.
This inaugurates the first installation
under Art Institute auspices primarily
for children, and is the forerunner Of
many such exhibits.
No child should miss seeing the ex-
hibit, as it will visualize for children
the service children may render to
children in the war torn countries and
bring about a most lovely and sympa-
thetic relation. AS befits a message
to childhood, the artist of the draw
ings, Anna Milo Upjohn, unlike Stein
len and Forian, who interpreted the
tragic side, has not dwelt on the ap-
peal of suffering or pain, but rather
on more joyous aspects of the life of
these foreign children, depending on
interest and understanding to estab-
lish the contact. Thus no boy or girl
will have their feelings narrowed in
this exhibit.
Children in their quaint old world
costuming, quaint glimpses of their
life, colorful flashes of six European
countries, wandering minstrels, chant
ing to the music of the goosla, boys
with kids or goats slung across their
shoulders, adorable babies, all are fea-
tured in these sketches which are truly
artistic illustrations and have a merit
aside from the cause they serve.
