Lincoln Art Exhibit
Here January 1925

The Lincoln Art Exhibit, including
hundred fifty world masterpieces
in art, will be on display at the Oak
ley high school, January 1926. in
elusive. These pictures have been
leaned by the Lincoln Fine Art shops
fer the purpose of the school buying
pictures for its own use. The dis
play costs nothing, but what money
is taken in applies to the purchase
of pictures from this company.
There will be on display copies
front he best pictures in the world
Of art These are the works of the
leading artists of the world and the
high school is fortunate in being
able to get copies in such easy man
ner.
For people to appreciate works of
art, they must come in contact with
the pictures. No one loves the best
music unless they have heard the
creations Of a master. Neither can
the best paintings be enjoyed and
understood unless it iss possible for
these works to be seen.
The result upon the community
should be real benefit, and if a
masterpiece by our efforts can be
displayed in each room of the high
school, more lasting benefit will be
accomplished upon the boys and
