The art loan exhibit which Is being ar
ranged by the Omaha Society of Fine Arts
to held In the lecture room of the public
library March M-2,1 will be one of the most
Important events of the year. The opening
nlRht. moreover, will be Interesting; so
cially. The society is sendlnR out 5W Invi
tations for the opening evening, which will
be In the nature of a reception, the presi
dent. Mrs. Lowrle Chllds, and the other
officers of the society acting as a reception
committee.
This will be tho Kecond annual art ex
hibit which the society ha.i given, but the
first art loan, and will therefore Rive the
first idea of the large number of notable
palntltiKs which are owned by Omaha peo
ple. The committee In charge has found
that not only do Omahans possess paint
ings by famous artists, but they possess
paintings which are representative of the
artist's best work. Oil and water color
paintings and miniatures are to bo Included
In the collection.
One room will be reserved for exhibition
of the works of Omaha artists. Mrs. ',. T.
Lindsay Is in chaiwe of this exhibit and
has secured u most Interesting representa
tion of local work.
The formation of a dramatic club prom
ises to be of much future Interest and
value to the society. This organisation,
which held Its initial meeting at the home
of Mrs. T. L. Kimball last week, proposes
two Interesting Ideas; it will produce un
usual plays for the entertainment of its
members and it thereby will increase the
Interest of Its members in all good plays.
The plan as outlined Is to hae a Hub com
pany composed of active or acting mem
bers and a large honorary membership,
which will form the audience at all first
perf ormarii cb. Itt;r vi ft muuees niHy be
given for a public object, but the premier
la always to be a Hub affair. This m.tUra
the organisation, primarily, one which is
to minister to Its members' interest In
drama.
As et the club Includes only the charter
members, tho clever amateurs who formed
"The Importance of Being Earnest" com
pany. Mr. Henry Dooi lev Is the president of the
new organization. The name of the club la
to be chosen at a meeting this week anu
Invitations sent out to those elected to hon
orary membership. The active membership
will he increased us candidates prove their
ability to ' net a part."
Omaha people are not easil.v daunte.l
by the failure of their plans. The peoplo
w ho planned to vl.-(j the oi lent as mem
bers of the special trade excursion tart
arranged and p'.annid by the Chicago Com
mercial club are not overwhelmed by the
fait that the official trip is cancelled be
cause the steamship chartered for the voj -age
Is disabled. The Omaha people propo.-e
atill to have their pleasure trips.
Mr. and Mrs. Uou'd Diets and their
guet. Mis. Mary OlUe Watson of Lincoln,

cisco, tailing from there March 2t on ths
