prize of $125 for a small nude "Iola" at the opening of the 24th annual exhibition of Indiana artists Sunday afternoon. The Jury of awards wa3 composed of William Forsyth, of John Herron Art institute, Indianapolis; John Wels, of the Cincinnati Art academy; and John E. Bundy, of this city. Members of the Art association expressed pleasure at acquiring this picture for the permanent collection, as Mr. Coats spent many years In Richmond and received his Inspiration here. William Forsyth, tn speaking of the award, said that it was the best thing Coats had ever done and that it probably would be some time before he did anything so good again. Rich Background The figure Is shown against a soft, rich background of deep blue and

green which shades down into a soft

golden color. A scarf of lavendar at one side adds another touch of color. Mr. Coats does figures and landscapes . equally well. He studied at the John Herron Art institute and the Cincinnati Art academy, where he is now an Instructor. Last summer he did some exceptionally splendid landscapes in oils at Provincetown, Mass., several of which are on exhibition at the gallery. Honorable Mention. First honorable mention was given to Clifton Wheeler, of Indianapolis, for his portrait of William Forsyth. The canvas is the same as was shown here at the recent portrait exhibit Mrs. Maude Kaufman Eggemeyer of this city was awarded third honorable mention for a lovely bit of landscape showing a river of unusual blues, entitled "The Bend in the River." The judges seriously considered awarding the prize to H. H. Wessel's "A Street in Greenport" but finally decided in favor of Mr. Coats' picture. During the opening afternoon 235 people visited the gallery. Several prominent artists from out of town, besides those residing here were present at the opening. Earl W. Bott, one of the 22 members of the Indiana Artists club to visit here last fall, came over from Indianapolis for the opening. He is exhibiting for the first time here. Forsyth Talks.

WILLIAMS SECRETARY OF STATE COMMITTEE

C. O. Williams, superintendent of schools In Wayne county, was appointed secretary of a committee to meet with a special constitutional convention of teachers of Indiana State Teachers' asociation some time in March, at a meeting of teachers in Indianapolis, Saturday. During the past meetings of the Teacher's Federation in Indiana, it has become apparent that there are too many teachers present at the convention to make it as personal as planned. This large body of teachers is unwieldly and defeats the purpose of the state meetings. In order to make changes it is necessary to change the constitution of the association. It is for this purpose that the meeting was held Saturday, and persons appointed on committees. H. L. Smith, of Indiana university, was rejected permanent chairman of Ihe convention. Mr. .Smith also was chosen chairman to consider changes; it is this committee to which Mr. Williams was selected secretary. Two persons were selected to represent each congressional district. Although it is not known just what the changes in the state convention constitution will be, it is believed that those in charge are considering dividing the convention of teachers into two parts; those of graded schools and those of high schools.
