Altru sa Girls Good Gamblers
0 A
Altrusa girls are good gamblers! •
This statement has nothing to do
w itta poker or crap shooting, but read
on.
They are risking their all on one
chance. Having made about $860 by
such difficult and laborious methods
as food sales, rummage sales, raffles
and benefit bridge parties, they aro
spending $1,200 to bring the Marion
ette players to Omaha February 12
for two performances at the Brandelu
theater. And, owing to the popular
ity of the marionettes, they eapect
to make money by spending money.
‘‘These clever little marionettes
have been such a huge succcesa
everywhere," said Miss Kthel Sachra,
president of the club, "that we anti
cipate filled houses both afternoon
and evening when they appear In
Omaha. The children will especially
enjoy ‘Uncle Wlggley’s circus’ In the
afternoon, and we believe their par-’
ents will be just as delighted with
‘Robin Hood’ in the e\enlng."
The Omaha Drama league, accord
ing to Mrs. Arthur Gulou. president,
wilt bulletin this theatrical attrac
tion as one worthy of patronage.
Proceeds from the marionette per
formances will help entertain women
from all over the country who will
l>e guests in Omaha at the national
I
convention of Altrusa in April. Alisa
Sachra, the president, is successfully
carrying the local club through what
is probably the most important and
exacting year of its experience.

Art Museum Talk
^ By MAURICE BIA)CK.
The National Academy of Design
will celebrate the 100th anniversary
of its founding with an exhibition of
the most important works of all of its
members since its organization In
1825. The exhibition will first be
held in the Corcoran Gallery of Art
in Washington in November and De
cember and later in New York.
Sir Joseph Duveen, perhaps the
most eminent dealer in paintings by
old masters, was guest of honor at
the Detroit Institute of Arts recently
on the occasion of the opening of a
remarkable exhibition of the [taint
ings of Dutch masters. It was gath
ered together from some of the most
notable collections in America. Im
portant works by the such Dutch
artists as Rembrandt, Hals, Vermeer,
t'uyp, Hobbema, De Houck and Van
Dych are shown. It is an event of
world-wide importance.
After viewing the growing /jollectlon*
of the Detroit institute and the splendid
now building now under construction,
Sir Joseph presented the institute with
n painting of the Madonna bv the
Sienese artist Sano di Pietro. (Fifteenth
century).
Detroit has struggled long to crystali^e
its art Interests. Housed for year® in a
building wholly inadequate for its needs,
it has in the last few years made unbe
lievable advance.
Projecting a glance into Omaha's fu
ture. one can only hope that this great
turning of the ways will come soon for
us. The city is tip# for it and will
i irry on onre the impetus is given. The
strainings and efforts of the force® that
havo been quietly at work here for msny
>ear® will then com# to their fruition.

A' i sited Omaha several year® ago with
