THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 1929 Interesting Pen Impres- sions of the Coming Attractions on ... THE LOCAL SCREEN Who's Who & What's What in the Amuse: Amer That America is fast taking the lead in art treasures was evidenced when Columbia Pic- tures decided to dross a set used in 'The Lone Wolfe's Daugh- ter" with bona fide works of art, For centur- ies connoisseurs have looked tow- ard the Eastern hemisphere as the mecca off rare porcelains, jewelry, tapestries, furniture, ar- mour, paintings, scultpure and the like. During the past decade there has been a constant influx of rare specimens into the United States. Today there is scarcely a city without its museums, private col- Jections and antique shops showing articles of prehistoric America, Ancient Egypt, Chaldea, Greece, Rome, Medieval Spain, ¥rance, England and all Oriental nations.

He personally super- vised the collecting of specimens to be shown in the set representing the Duval Art Galleries in New York. From private homes, museums, antique stores, jewelry .merchants, large department stores and other places, rare articles were borrow- ed to grace the set in the Columbia studio. The results of the search were surprising. It revealed the fact that America is becoming a center of culture as well as a place of business and finance. In the midst of an age of jabb and tinsel the populace is turning to the finer and more lasting things of life and surdounding itself with treas- ures for which Europe and Asia have been envied.
