WORK OF INDIANA ARTISTS ON VIEW Thirty-Three Paintings of the Frank C. Ball Collection Now Open to Public at Aerron Art Institute N as a Holiday Treat. Thirty-three paintings by Indiana artists selected from the permanent collection and the Frank C. Ball collection, together with individual loans, have been arranged in Gallery YII at the John Herron Art Institute. Each canvas is an example of the most finished work of the seventeen artists represented. Landscapes, portraits, figure studies and still life are included and all are fine pieces of crafts-

manship. It is such an exhibition as this that accounts for the position of importance held by Indiana in the world of art. Included Is "The Art Jury” by Wayman Adams, acquired by the Art Association just a year ago through popular subscription. It is especially interesting in these surroundings since Jt hangs among the paintings of the four men whom it portrays. There is also “Dorothy” by William M. Chase, a charming study of one of the artist’s little daughters. This was purchased in 1903 and has long been a favorite with gallery visitors. Others of importance are “Close of a Summer Day,” by William Forsyth; “In the Catskills,” by Clifton Wheeler; “Indian Summer,” by John E. Bundy; “The Bloom of the Grape,” by Theodore C. Steele; “Late Autumn,” by J. Ottis Adams; “The Restless Sea,” by Susan M. Ketcham; “Leland—Morning,” by Otto Stark; “Pierrot,” by Lucy M. Taggart, and “The Spanish Shawl,” by Ruth Pratt Bobbs. Several of the artists are no longer residents of the State and their work is seldom exhibited here. Os these William Edouard Scott in her “Rainy Day, L’taples,” and Katherine H. Wagenhals in her “The Visitor,” achieve admirable effects through widely different types of quite unusual technique. In the average exhibition there are few animal paintings. Particularly in America it is the exceptional artist who specializes in the delineations of animal life. But the Old

Lyme group whose work is now displayed in Gallery XI count several painters among their number who portray animals with understanding and fidelity. Henry Rankin Poore's canvass, “The Old White Horse of the Dunes,” is a study in grays with a dejected old white horse as t the center of interest. The horse* and the sand and the mist-laden air are treated in melting pearly tones that produce an effective composition. Carleton Wiggins has contributed another sort of thing. His "Connecticut Bull” is frankly a portrait. The large and aggressive white and black bull challenges all comers in an open field and from the glance of his rolling eye it is to be hoped that the artist had a safe avenue of escape since no protecting fence is indicated between the animal and the observer. "A Spring Idyl,” also by Wiggins, is a study of sheep and lambs in a fresh green pasture, and “Crossing the Stream,” by Edward Volkert, shows a group of cattle crossing the shallow bed of a creek. Skillful handling of the moving herd, and crisp clean color makes this a delightful piece of work. A lean and eager pointer is "Kirk’s His Highness,” painted by Percival Rosseau. The autumn is the season of the hunting dog’s greatest activity and usefulness. Then he emerges from a slothful summer and, trained down to thin fleetness, ranges the brown stubble fields in company with the hunter. Rosseau’s pointer will be appreciated by any man who likes a pedigreed dog. A knowledge of art and its canons is not necessary to the enjoyment of such a living presentment as this of canine aristocracy. NEW EVENTS DUE AT APPOI.LO A dversified program has been arranged for the Circle next week when Colleen Moore will be starred in “Her Wild Oat,” where Louise Powell’s Kiddie’s Christmas Revue and the second feature, “Robinson Crusoe.” besides a host of other delightful novelties will be offered. “Robinson Crusoe” is the authentic story of the greatest hero of the world’s youthful imagination, and brings itself visually to children and grownups who have read it. Tobago, credited with being the island on which Alexander Selkirk, whose adventures on a desert island serve as the basis for the story, is actually used as the locale of the picture. This picture completes the most comprehensive kiddies’ program ever
