She conducted Cincinnati's campaign for a city manager charter in 1924 and did similar work in Rochester, N. Y., and in Minneapolis. Prior to joining the staff of the national federation she was connected with the faculty of the School of Citizenship and Public Af- fairs of Syracuse university. Miss Kneubuhl will be one of four speakers at the banquet session of the convention. This will be held Satur- day evening, May 12, at the North Shore hotel and will be the closing event of the two days' convention.

Rudolph Ingerle's painting "Land- scape" was accepted as was Allen Philbrick's "Beech. Woods." The paintings are to be on view from May to June 1, at the Galleries, 220 North Michigan avenue. The Chicago Galleries association is a co-operative organization of lay- men and artists, organized to exhibit and sell the works of art of its artist members. This year the association is planning to put into practice a new plan--the Home Circulating Gallery. Each member of this Circulating Gal- lery is entitled to take one of the pic- tures 'home to keep for a period of thirty days, after which the picture is returned, and another one taken out. The privilege of having twelve fine pictures in the home during the year is made possible at a modest cost.
