It Is understood that h.'tls will be the last exhibit of the season to be brought to Evanston under this commendable plan of the Guild and Art commission. These exhibits may rtot have been supported by white phlox, yellow and white daisies many but have had the sincere gratitude ~f:~~st the folds of a shawl of beautltul and appreciation of a large ·number of beauty lovers.
