PULLAR & NIVEN HUNDREDS VISIT INSTITUTE MUSEUM Choice Collections Win Applause of Men, Women and Children hundred adults and chil- dren visited the Museum of Natural History and Art at the New Britain Institute yesterday the occasion being the opening of ““Museum Week.” Surprise was expressed by many who have been frequent visitors at theé museum at the number of new ex- hibits secured by the curator, E. Burlingham Schurr. Others who dropped 'in fdr the first time were amazed to learn that New Britain possessed such a mine of nature's wonders as well as a choice collection of objects of art, Including oil paint- ings by famous artists. It is safe to say that few musepms in the coun- try can boast of a better collection of objects than those under Mr. Schurr's care, a fact that bears testimony to his deep interest in the work and his proficlency as a curator. Pictorial Photographs, The exhibition of pictorial photo- graphy which will be at the Museum during the month of November begin- ning Monday the 5th, is of such a nature as to prove of exceptional in- terest not only to those who delight in taking pictures, but to all lovers of art. In.fact many of the pictures are of a character as to prove very in- structive and entertaining to children. The Insitute Museum is very for- tunate in securing this exhibition, New Britain being the only city in Connecticut to have the display. The schedule for the pictorial pho- tographic exhibition is announced as follow Bastern group: Newark Association Newark N. J. month of October; Museum of Nagural History and Art of New Britain In- stitute, New Britain, Conn., month of November; Worcester Art Museum, ‘Worcester, Mass., December; Syracuse Museum of Fine Arts, Syracuse, N. Y., January; Guild of Allied Arts, Buffalo, N. Y. TFebruary; Grand Rapids Art Association, Marec! Uni- versity of Oklahoma, April; New Orleans Art Association, May. ‘Western group: Minneapolis Insti- tute of Arts September; Milwaukee Art Institute, October; The Art In. stitute of Chicago November; City Art Museum, St. Louis, December; Toledo Museum of Art,, January; Detroit Museum of Art, February; Cleveland Art Museum, h; Cincinnati Museum of Art, April. It can be judged from the fore- going list of museums where the ex- hibitions are to be held, that the col- lection of photographs are real works of art or they could not gain admis- sion to such institutions. This fact ilone should warrant a large dally at- tendance to the exhibition at the In- stitute Museum. The photographs, which number over one hundred, are all neatly framed, and will be hung In' the Tal- cott Art room, where the powerful artificial light will show the pictures to the best advantage. The collection will be on exhibition heginning next Monday, and is free to the public. Several Museum during M on the war, is described in the letter recelved from Lamb by his parents. He tells of a priest going into battle with a Bible in one hand and a sup- ply of hand grenades within reach, comforting the dying around him and heaving the grenades at the enemy. The men worship him and belleve he bears a charmed life. Lamb’s letter follows: “Vanault-les-Dames, Oct. 6, 1917. “My Dear Father and All: “I have certainly got a lot to tell this time but it would be quite impos- sible to write all about /it. We had charge of three posts at Verdun on the right bank of the Meuse that you must have been reading so much about. Over fifty per cent. of the Di- vision we were assigned to were lost and all are back here en repos now. All three of our posts were around the ‘Cote de Poive’, the hottest hill (Pepper Hill) in the Verdun battles, and in the rear of Hill 304. We were gassed every night, and shelled con- tinuously. We just missed a section citation but were given four Croix de Guerres for the unit which were voted for the three officers and another who was wounded in the leg with a piece of shell. It is marvellous that this was our only casualty. It will surely be something to tell you about when I get back. The American officers have been here. Five signed up. Nine Americans have arrived already from Allentown, Pa., but this does not re- lease anybody as we have many va- cancies already. Soon the rest will arrive however, to release the whole section. Not before we go back again in three days to the Champagne front where T hope we will get a section ci- tation. I have some pictures taken which I am praying will come out good, of the things you read about at home. One of a gas attack and an- other of three shells bursting a few rods away in front of our worst post. The gas is awful stuff especially at night when you can't see a thing especially with your mask on. It makes your eyes and nose run for hours and your voice hoarse. We carried over three thousand wounded. Our rest cantonment was in Glorieux, a suburb of Verdun, as it is sure death to live in Verdun proper. “I would like to have the facllities for sending home enough stuff to fill the den with but of course this is im- possible. Our cars are all shot up and we are fixing them u pto start back to the Champagne front. I only hope we are there long enough to get a citatlon before we are released. “T received your letter of September 18th out there and am wondering now what vou will think about my second trip to the Bar-le-Duc hospital. I kept both my ears well plugged at the front of course. I wrote you the day before I left the hospital but that last night we were bombed awfully by Boche planes it being very moonlight. They swooped right down and fired their machine guns in the windows and we are fixing them up to start their searchlights agalnst the bril- liance of the emoon. Four were killed and ten wounded. I rode on a loco- motive with American engineers as far as Landrecourt and got a ride on an auto the rest of the way to my sec- tion. The train doesn’t run any fur- ther as the track is swept by fire. Our roads were a great deal in sight of the Boche and especially when their balloons were up it was most dan- gerous in the day time. The land was like a honeyvcomb with bomb holes and covered with unexploded shells, bombs, etc. Two Frenchmen were walking to the post in front of the car at night, one stepped on a grenade and it killed him and blew both legs off the other. “There were a couple of priests at the posts. One in particular—he had every citation possible. A wonderful man whom the soldiers worship. He zoes with every attack with a Bible in one hand and a dozen grenades in the other. He gives the last rites to the Poilus faming around him and beats off the Boche at the same time. Although always in the front line he has never even been touched and the Poilus regard him as supernatural. He , however, that he has lost his re- ligion and thinks it only natural. He has a new religion now—simply to help the men which he certainly is doing. T don’t think our Champagne section is going to be as active as Ver- dun but hope it will be for this short remaining time. Although one gives a sigh of relief when he gets back safely from a trip to the post, it is nevertheless somewhat cinating and draws you back again. You all never seemed so dear to me before I was In the middle of a gas cloud and bombs and shells dropping around like apples. I feel a greater respect for the Pollus now than ever before. It is wonderful what they go through and still are. No packages yet but T'm still hoping that they'll be let through. “Your loving son and Brother 1 b 1 i 1 first o'clock in the sodality club rooms. 3 mour li automobiles New Photograph of Premier Pain leve of France who has retained hi: affairs iniplace of Alexandre Ribot.
