Who does not sorrow at thoughts of the awful price they have paid in the cause of liberty and justice? The ardorour fighters of France include many of the most talented men of a talented nation. Great artists are bearing the vicious at- tacks of an unspeakable foe. And as they fight, their families suffer an equal burden. At Chicago's Art Institute, now. are being shown a wonderful collection of paintings made by these artists while on duty in the trenches. Thousands view them daily and mar- vel at their vitality and historical significance.

Every penny realized from this sale goes to the suffering families of artists who are fighting for you and for me. See these remarkable pictures now.
