Phoenix and the other Arizona cities did everything

by any one person. and there are o few out-of-

An Interesting feature OF this exhibition is O
group of miniatures BY Mrs. Nina Nash Cron,
wife Of Lieut.. Col. Anton G. Cron. who studied
under Elsie Dodge Pattee and Mabel WEIGH
both accomplished miniaturists
Mrs. Cron p.oves herself. however, an apt
pupil, for her work Is both subtle and strong
technically good and artistically charming. Her
portrait of her husband is excellent; also one,
presumably. of her young daughter. And Of

Mrs. Cron has exhibited with the American
Society Of Miniature Painters in New York the
Pennsylvania Society Of Miniature Painters
Philadelphia, and the Brooklyn Society of
Miniature Painters; also in Chicago, Memphis
and other cities.
IN the reception room and dining room ON
the first floor, of the Arts Club, a collection
OF water colors by Mary Doolittle Dawson was
placed on view October %, to continue to Mo-
vember !.
Mrs. Dawson has lived the greater part Of
her LIE in and near Washington and therefore
E1ghtfully takes her place In local art circles.
She began the study of art at the Art Students
League In this city as q pupil of the late E. c.
MeSSer and Delaney Gill; After her marriage
1or some time her art was practically set as de
only an occasional painting produced During
tine war she entei ed the Government service "a
statistical craftsman, q capacity in which she
continued to serve until q little more than q
year ago, when she resigned from this field and
resumed the study of art under Miss Clara r
saunders. She has also studied with Cameron
Burnside
Included in the present exhibition are p
paintings the majority of which are of flower
and still life subjects, the remainder landscanes
ano portrait sketches. Mrs. Dawson has de-
ngnttul sense of color, and it is probably for
TINS reason that in the rendering of flowers
ana still life subjects she has achieved greatest
success. Especially attractive among the for

It is sadly true that in this section, as well
as in others, some of the conservatives are seen
not at their best so that their works appear
weak and thus lend strength to the opposition.
In the British section sporting subjects by A. J.
Munnngs meticulously painted, and landscapes
by Sir David Cameron the great etcher, to-
gather with realistic figure studies by Laura
Knight, make interesting contrast with the
works of such men as Augustus John, bod
Proctor and Alan Beeton. In the French sec
ton there is huge canvas, THE Funeral OF
Marshal Foch," by Andre Mare, which would
seem to have belonged to the salons OF the
1905, and so be far removed from the works
shown with it by such men as Derain, Bon
nard, Matisse, prague, Van Dongen, even
Menard Simon, LIE Sidaner and Henri-Martin.
In the Austrian, Belgian Italian and Spanish
sections there Is evidence of an inclination on
the part of certain well known artists to return
to the ways of Holbein and Durer, to portray
realistically, but through convention Such,
for instance, the portraits of Victor Ham
mer and Louis Buisseret, and the figures Of
Antonio Donghi-Austrian, Belgian and Italian,
respectively.
The German section is far less extreme than
In the past and much more interesting-very
nationalistic. The Spanish section contains .
