It does, not mean that the money will be borrowed now. It can be borrowed next spring. No improvements under this appropri tion can be made until next year. Aldermen Patrick F. Sweeney said that in his opinion this is & poor time to make cement conwacts for material to be used next spring. It will be cheaper pefore spring, he said.

WORLD-FAMED ARTISTS VISIT NORWICH DURING FEIDAY Although few knew of it Friday, Nor- wich entertained some of the most dis- tinguished artists in the country. This was brought about through the splendid achievement of William F. Habekotte of the Norwich Art Association in getting the Lyme and Mystic artists to consent to loan their pictures for @ joint exhidit in Norwich—one of the most important events fn the art annals of the city. A number of the famous men came here Friday, visited Converse Art Gal- lery at Slater Museum, and were en- thusiastic over the ideal setting for thelr canvases, declaring the pictures hung exactly to their iiking. This, of course, was one af the finest compli- ments Mr. Habekotte could be paid. After much correspondence and many personal interviews, Mr. Habekotte in his enthusiasm has secured among other cenowned artists who will show pic- tures and sketches, from Lyme, Greg- ory Smith, recent winner of the coveted Eaton Prize; Willam S. Robinson, famed from coast to coast; Ernest Al- bert, a_ member of the National Acad- emy; Will Howe Foote, Henry R. Poore, Thomas Watson Ball, Guy Wig- , 'Carleton Wiggins and others. From Mystic will come canvases by such deaders in the art world as Elliot Buneking, Ernest Banew, Jules Joseph; portraits by Sherman Potts and about & dozen of his splendid miniatures; there will be sketches by Victor §in- neil and pictures by Henry Bill Selden and others. A feature will be the impressioniat exhibit by Peppino Mangravite. In ad- dition to all this, Miss Katherine For- st is to ocontribute @ notable display of art textiles. g Many of the artists have sigmified their intention of being in Norwich dur- Ing Monday afternoon, that they may inspect the collection in its final hang- Ing.
