SCHOOL CHILDREN SAW PICTURES
Yesterday and the day before were children's days at the art exhibit. Many of the down town people sent their youngsters up to see the pictures on exhibition in the Museum. In the two days over five hundred little ones enjoyed looking at the masterpieces of some of the great artists of today.
Could some of the artists who were represented at the exhibit hear the remarks made by some of the visiting children they might not feel flattered in the least.
One little colored fellow about as tall as a sack of flour, and as thick too, stood in wrap admiration before a picture with a massive gilt frame. When asked which one he liked best he said, "Dis one here 'cause it's got the purtiest rim around it."
Two wee small boys were earnestly discussing the cause for some of the pictures being rough and others being smooth. Finally one of them came to the conclusion that the canvas used was of an inferior quality.
"Oh, that aint the reason," said the other one assuredly, "it's 'cause so many people have put their fingers on some of them and rubbed spots off."
One little fellow was asked why some of the children don't enjoy pictures and he replied, "Oh, because they don't understand them. I paint myself so I like them."
Needless to say a crowd of children stood before the picture with the little boy who is on the log in the river. The little girls showed much interest in the unrepentant girl who is pouting.
"Let's go see the stuffed animals, kids they're lots more fun than these old pictures," this was the signal and a crowd of boys were off for the basement of the Museum.
