MRS. JOHNSTON GETS ANOTHER PERIOD AS CLUB ART DIRECTOR Richmond Woman Honored Second Time by General Federation for Work With Art Exhibits.

Unusual advancement In American art Is being made by American club women who in the last ten years, have undergone a remarkable change, in their daily lives, their club lives and in type, according to Mrs. M. F. Johnston, who has just returned from Chicago where she spent two strenuous weeks as chairman of the art department of the Federation of Woman's clubs at the biennial convention. Mrs. Johnston who was appointed to the national office in 19i, when the biennial was held in California, was reappointed or another two year term. Her term will expire i 1916 when the biennial will be held at Atlantic City or New York. Mrs. Johnston's time was spent first in organizing the work of the ten women of her department. She also had the exhibit which she has been sending out to various cities of the country, consisting of paintings of the New York women artists. In setting up the exhibit she was assisted by Miss Myra Chamness of this city, curator, at the high school school art gallery. To Bring Exhibit. Mrs. Johnston announced today that she "ill endeavor to bring to Richmond the beautiful display of Dudley Crafts Watson. Mr. Watson was one of the judges of the Indiana exhibit held here in November and impressed Richmond persons with a short speech he made in the high school art gallery. At Mrs. Johnston's art day. Mr. Watson presented his music picture symphony, "The Moor." The pictures were taken in Spain and hand colored by Mr. Watson. While he explains the pictures, Mrs. Alfred Emerson, an accomplished musician hidden behind screens, plays soft Spanish music. Mrs. Johnston believes there are enough people in Richmond who would appreciate the muitic and art display to warrant bringing it to the city later in t;v ypar. Mrs. Johnr-ton's hour before the convention raiP5, follow ing the passage of the suffrage resolution. There was an audience of about 5,000 persons. Larado Taft, Chicago sculptor, and Charles Francis Brown, first assistant to the chief of the art department of the Manama-Pacific exposition were .speakers on Mrs. Johnston's program, while the Richmond woman herself gave the report of the art work which has been going on under her direction in the federated clubs of the country. Serves Art Luncheon. In a room surrounded by casts of portals, windows and towers of French cathedrals, in Blackstone hall of the art institute, the surrounding artistically in keeping wlih the occasion, the art luncheon under Mrs. Johnston was held. The tables were copiously decorated with pink and white peonies sent by Mr?. William A. Peterson of Chicago, formerly Miss Mary Hill, an Earlham student. Mrs. Robert L. Sackett, a former Richmond woman, cow living in Lafayette and Mrs. ii. P.. Burnett, of Indianapolis, state art chairman, were two Indiana speakers at the luncheon. The work of the Overbeck sisters of Cambridge City received a full share of appreciation. Mrs. Johnston stated that she was given newspaper credit for designing the vases which were the work of the Overbeck sisters, but that this was a mistake, made by federation correspondent s. On Thursday, Mrs. Johnston told before the convention in the Auditorium theatre the story of the designing of the Overbeck cups. One of them, the bigg, which is hand worked, was then presented by Mrs. Waters, editor of the Frderatiou publication at - ew York city, to the chairman of the Alabama Federation of clubs for having turned in the most subscriptions to the magazine. Presents Tall Vase. Mrs. Johnston then presented for the Indiana delegation, the tall wheel turned vase to Mrs. Percey Pennybacker, the president of the federation. Immediately following her speech of presentation, the Indiana delegation fifty, seated in a tier of boxes arose and sang the song, "Indiana." The exhibit of paintings under Mrs. Johnston was in the Matzcne gallery of the fine arts building of the Chicago Art Institute. This is the exhibit which Mrs. Johnston has sent out to many Indiana and Ohio cities. report of the work of the convention probably will be made to the state and city federations later by Mrs. Johnston. The inspiration gained through the convention, can not bo given to the women by reports, however, Mrs. Johnston declared. She was the only Richmond club woman present at the convention.

PENZANCE, Eng., June 24. With a volunteer crew of thirty-five seamen on board the Belgian liner Gothland, which went upon the rocks near Scllly Island yesterday, lies In a perilous position today and is in danger of being battered to pieces by the heavy sea, unless . she is refloated soon. The steamship Lyonesse, which took off the eighty-six passengers and ninety-five members of the crew, landed these persona today. The captain of the Oothland remained on his ship. He askod for volunteers to stay with him, and most of the seamen steppud for

ward, but only thirty-five were selected to remain. Survivors of the wrecked ship said that she had struck the rock off Bishop lighthouse during a thick fog. which completely obscured everything. The point where the ship struck is just off one of the busiest steamer lanes in the country, and the S. O. S. calls which were flashed out were immediately answered. This re-assured the passengers, and there wai no panic aboard. Within a few minutes several ships had responded to the help calls.

Palladium Want Ads Pay

Richmond. Ind., June 24. 1914. Editor Palladium: Richmond, Indiana. Dear Sir: The attention of the undersigned is called to an article as appearing in your paper under date of June 19th, 1914, in which I am quoted in reference to the matter of the retention of Mr. Cobb, as County Agent. Permit me to state in the first instance that I am in favor of the retention of Mr. Cobb in order that my position may be fully understood; but to state that I was or ever have been at Richmond "looking for grounds to carry on the impeachment investigation" is absolutely unfounded, and I have not been at any time and am not now a party to any such proceedings, and have no information of any such organization among the farmers of New Garden Township, and never beard of the same further than the statement and question of your representative, Mr. Smith, who said "why don't you farmers of New Garden Township organize and employ attorneys and bring impeachment charges," or words to that effect. Further, your statement that the residence formerly of Mr. Williams in New Garden Township "Is a big point against him and if the residents of the community did not know him so well, they might not be so radically against him" as stated made upon any statement of mine is wholly without foundation and is a malicious reflection

upon Mr. Williams, and In no wise states my opinion of him. which is exactly the reverse, and is exactly the reverse of his reputation in our Township. The mere fact that he and I differ In the method to pursue in the

matter of the county agency is no ' ground for such quotations being i made. The people of our township I houA l,ns n n Mr Williams fnr vanr

and are pleased with bis record and success, and they are not to my knowledge "against him" in the manner suggested. There are farmers there who favor the retention of Mr. Cobb and there are others who do not but we try at least to reach our conclusions upon mature consideration and not assisted by villiflcation or abuse. Trusting to the receipt of this communication in the same spirit in which it is given, and the correction

' by proper insertion of the original

statement. I remain, respectfully. O. B. Hlnsoaw.
