It is announced that the paint- ing by Paul Dougherty, entitled “Mid- summer,” has been purchased by Mr. Charles T. Kountze. The small bronze called the “Blizzard,” which is the work of Solon Borglum, will become the property of Mrs. Moshier G. Col- petzer. The seated figure of Lincoln, which is a replica of the original now in the east, will also become the pride of some Omaha art lover. It has been sold to one of two persons, the situa- tion being that if one does not buy, the other will. Francem In Omaha on Decmber 10 Frances Naslf will be heard at the Metropolitan club house on December 10.

I de- cided to enter the professional field because in no other way would I hold myself to the highest standard of ac- complishment.
