OPPORTUHTY TO VIEW
FAMOUS MASTERPIECES
The rare opportunity ot ueolngBome
wonderful canvases is open to uni
versity students from today till the
twenty-second of Februury. Carol
Ueckwith's reproductions of. famous
masterpieces are now on exhibition In
the Art Gallery In the Library.
Velasquez, Reubens, Nattier, and
many other famous names are In
cluded In the exhibit. The canvases
are very large, and the copies very
trustworthy.
This exhibition is of special value
to college students, as It gives them
a know ledge of the old school of paint
ing. It is fortunate that a painter like
Deckwith, who is one of our greatest
artists, should reproduce the old nias
tt3. Most of the exhibitions now
available to colltge students and oth
ers have been of the modern period.
Ail students will feel well repaid for
spending some extra time viewing
these marvellous pictures.
The exhibition will be sent to the
normal schools of the state, under the
auspices of the School of Fine Arts.
Next Sunday the Art Gallery will
be open to visitors till 10 p. in. Music
by the Steckelberg orchestra will be
given at 3 and perhaps at 4:30. The
photographs of theorlglnal paintings
are also In the exhibit.
W. A. ROOKIE RETURNS
TO THE UNIVERSITY
(Continued from rage One)
assignment of the government. He
will not only remain here during Pro
fessor Bengston's absence, but per
haps next year as well.
Mr. Rockie was very prominent in
university circles five or six years ago,
and will be remembered for his partici
pation in school activities. After his
graduation here he entered the em
ployment of the bureau of soils, with
headquarters at Washington, D. C,
and remained in this work until the
latter part of 1917. This work took
Jnim Into Texas, Georgia, Louisiana
and other southern states in the win
ter season only, but he has worked
in nearly every state in the Union,
during the summer months, his work
taking him largely into the middle
And western states of Wyoming, Ida
ho, Utah and Oregon, where he
.worked in the mountain regions.
With Geological Survey
"Since the beginning of 1918 Mr.
Rockie has been in the service of the
United States Geological Survey, and
has, during his whole post-university
career, specialized in field work.
His work in the mountainous west
rn states was largely the opening up
of small mountain valleys for home
steading purposes, within a generally
limited forested region. These val
leys, being better suited to agricul
tural uses than to the minor indus
tries, were opened to settlement and
Mr. Rockie had much to do with ac
complishing this end.
This extensive work with the gov
ernment equips him admirably for his
luture work at the university, because
of his practical experience. Mr.
Rockie's work for the remainder of
the year will be on the whole class
work, but next year it is possible that
he will have charge of the work in
the field survey department.
