Are niorth shore, artists reflecting impressions of the miasterpieces of A Century of Progress exhibit of thé Chicago Art institute and going con- servative? Just whiat effect the W\orid's Fair show will have, upon contemporary painting' it is interest- iflg to conijecture. It is also interest- ing to claim, after seeitig the North Shore Art. league exhibit which opeined at. Comnmunity louse Sundayï, that a :World's Fair. influence is alilareit. Su'ch a claim, however, cannot be truthfully advanced, for a known, percentage of. the picturés in the Art, league show: were painted before Julie of this 'year, with the, possibility that an unknowni percent- age, to eedn before the opeIn- ing. of A Century of Progress. Restraied Influence Nevertheless, Fair or nîo Fair, a strong favoring of' the farniliar, the r estrained, the, intelligible,- rather than itheic spectacular, is ,to be seen i the inust recent>Art league collection. Only, Kerfoot's "Street Scelle and M\fary l Poinarth's "A-bstractioni" over- step the c:rcumscribed limits of ves-' terday anid,,take advantage' of thc new; license. Losing noôthing by this failure to keep esep %vith the latest mnode, Fran- ces *Bcow-tai has produced and dis-* plays ini this exhibit a water color of "The D)es Plaines River," so vigorous that it. received honorable mention both ini the A. WV. C. C. and the N. Y. W. C. C. Quite as noticeable for its composure, as Frances Bowmnan-'s for its stimiulating qualitiés, is Allen Phil- brick's " River Iiii Maine'" or "Ebb Tide." Flacid greens and blues have been hlalidled ,vith such tralnsparericy that the usuai weaknless associated wvith these colors falîs away into tva- ttr, sky> antd trees wvhichi canniot pos- sibly be iiiade of just- oils, pigmients and canvas.
