The attention of members of the Association is invited once more to the 

 dinner which will be held at Hugot's on the evening of March 25. The price 

 has been fixed at $2.00 in order to induce a large attendance, and it is hoped 

 that members will try to dispose of some tickets among persons who are 

 interested in the Association although not actually enrolled therein. The 

 list of guests includes a number of eminent men, and the addresses are sure 

 to be worthy of the occasion. As it ii imperative that the number of diners 

 should be known in advance, in order that proper provisions should be made, 

 the committee in charge earnestly requests all who wish to attend to make 

 reservations not later than March 18. 



A loan exhibit of more than usual interest will be on view for the first 

 time on the evening of the Association meeting, March 15, and thereafter 

 will be open to the public during the regular museum hours. It consists of 

 a collection of pastels and water colors by American artists, many of local 

 prominence. The pictures will be displayed in the main hall and in the art 

 room. Arrangements for the exhibit have been made by Mrs. Robert W. 

 Gardner, of the art loan committee, under the general direction of the honor- 

 ary curator, Dr. Adams. A list of the exhibitors follows: 



Mrs. E. M. Scott, Vice President of the Water Color Club, Miss Helen 

 Phelps, Vice President of the Woman's Art Club, Miss Charlotte Coman,
