Show The 1927 Art Exhibit With so many of America's foremost artists contributing their finest productions, produc-tions, the 1927 National art exhibit is without a doubt the most representative of its kind in the entire nation. An exhibit of this quality is a distinct credit to any institution, and students and patrons of the Springville high school have just cause to be proud of it. But their pride in their achievement is not all that is essential to keep it in tact. It must have moral and financial support. In this connection the various women's clubs and other organizations of the city are to be commended for the splendid support given. Only a few days ago the Ladies' Alpha Beta club sent a contribution of $40 to the art committee, the second donation made by this organization during the year. The first aid given by this organization toward the 1927 show was for $50. Such assistance as this is, indeed, praiseworthy. This project, the greatest cultural movement in the intermountain region, should attract a greater number of people from outside of the city. To do this Springville citizens should take it upon themselves to invite their friends to visit the exhibit, which is open to the public each day of the week and all day on Sunday. In addition to this we believe that a large banner calling attention to the exhibit ex-hibit hung across Main street would be the means of diverting much tourist traffic traf-fic and many citizens of the state to the art gallery. Of all who visit the gallery some one of means interested in such a worthy project will some day lend a helping hand to the movement. Until that time comes let us as citizens do all we can to bear the burden, and teach our home town folks how to appreciate art that air may live more abundantly through such learning. |
