Is $4,000 too much to ask for

day than Russell. No man ever will.
This is our last chance. We pro-
duced Russell. 1t was Montana that
inspired him; it was Montana that
he painted. Our apathy has lost us
most of his work. Are we ava e
enough to save this last and finest
COLLECTION!
Remember, it is an investment in
terms of dollars as well as in terms
of history and art And it ought to
be an investment in terms of pride.
We ought to cherish our state enough
to maintain it's heritage; we ought
to be proud enough of our rich back
ground to keep the works of that
backgrounds greatest interpreter in
the state.
By the same token, if apathy and
lethargy and selfish disinterest lose
this collection, we ought to be deep
ly ashamed.
We cannot live in a community and
give nothing to it, or it will wither
up. Montana has done it's full share
of whitening already.

A Plea To Montanans
Has Montana Enough Pride To Keep What Hers?
State Historical Society Asks
(By the Historical Society of Montanal

The month of May, 1862, has beer
proclaimed "Charles M. Russo
month" by the governor.
This is not mply another
name" month. The purpose of the
proclamation is to save the last col
lection of RusselPs paintings for
Montana
The Mint collection, formerly in
Great Falls, is now being sold in New
York. Other Russells, probably in ex-
cess of two or three million dollars
worth, have been drained out of Mon
tana by New York, Oklahoma, and
Texas.
This is not only drain in the
sense of artistic and historical wealth,
but drain in hard and fast terms
of dollars. 1t represents a real as well
as an abstract loss for the state of
Montana.
One collection now remains to us.
j. Frank Dobie, of Ell Paso, Texas,
perhaps the country's leading Rus
sell authority, said recently that it
was the finest, in terms of quality,
in the country.
This is the Malcolm S. Mackay col
lection presently in the Northern Ho-
tel in Billings. Various values have
been placed on this collection, but a
conservative estimate would place it's
value at about 100000.
The collection is now for sale
only to the State of Montana for
$4,000. We have raised all but
$4,000. We have a little less than
year to raise the remainder of the
money.
If we fail, our chance to get the
last, and the best, of the Russells
will be gone, and we won't get an
other chance.
The rest of the nation seems to
have recognized Russell's greatness.
