The pupils were asked to give a small sum of money each month to the League. The Wonderful paintings and statuary which adorn the halls of Hughes bear Witness to the work accomplished by the League. The entrance to Hughes is one of the finest in the country. On either side are Barnhorn's War memorial lunettes of Rookwood. In the center of the main hall stands the Winged Victory of Samothrace. The original, which is in the Louvre in Paris, is noted for the soft feathery appearance of the wings, a most difficult thing to accom- plish in sculpture. We certainly enjoy this thing of beautyf' The other statues, Augustus Caesar, Pallas Athene, and the Discobolus are equally beautiful and, with the World-renowned Frieze of the Parthenon, add to the artistic aspect of the corridor. Hughes is now endeavoring to secure the original paintings of the most important Cincinnati artists. At present, there are paintings by many C in- cinnati Women, Bessie Hoover Wessel, Dixie Selden, Emma Mendenhall, Lillian Whitteker, Frances Farrand Dodge and Elizabeth Heil Alke. The men are also well represented by the works of Hauser, Sharp, Wareham, Herman, Weber, Wessel, Meakin, Volkert, Jennings, Adams, Endres, Alke, Weissler, Weiss, our own Mr. Teal and Duveneck. The lastest treasure acquired is the picture, The Girl in the Broad Brimmed Hat, by Duveneck. This painting was made while the artist was in Munich, and is very Well known. In obtaining this picture, Hughes realized a dream of many years, for the great Duyeneck was a friend of Hughes and it seemed fitting and proper that one of his pictures should hang upon our Walls. With the support of the students, the Art League is bound to bring addi- tional treasures to the halls of Hughes in future years. LOUISE THOMAN, '24. Ninety-seven
