Enthusiasm ran high on Tuesday and Wednesday at Community House and it is reported that a goodly amount, running into the thousands, was raised by the enter- prising men and women who have worked all summer for the success of the shops. One part of the bazaar, however, the Art exhibit and sale is to be carried over until next week. The pictures will be on exhibition for several days but particular attention is.called to the fact that today or tomorrow afternoon (Sunday) between 2:30 and 7 these works may be seen and purchased. An incomplete listing of the artists and their work includes five paintings by Frank Peyraud with two autumn scenes and one of spring; one splendid mountain scene by Rudolph Ingerle, done in the mountains of North Caro- lina; a large group of fine water colors, some of Winnetka and some of Cali- fornia done by Hugo Von Hofsten; several flower pieces, done by Mrs. Marguerite Calkins Taylor of Wilmette, Mrs. Gordon Wilson of Wilmette, Mrs. John Vennema of Winnetka and Mrs. Elizabeth Boldenweck of Winnetka: two portraits done by Cora Gould Davies ; some animal studies by George Nash of Evanston; etchings of Franz Hals and Allen Philbrick, also a land- scape bv the latter local artist; and two landscapes done by Pauline Graf Davis of Glencoe.
