Mr. Alston told of the year's work beginning with the establishment of the art school by the association last September. He referred to the remark ably successful term, and thanked the Instructore. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Os good, for their efficiency and earnest co-operation. Following the establishment of the school the Art Association held Its sec ond nnnuol exhibition, which consisted of the works of over one hundred prom inent American painters brought to Atlanta from the Fast by Mr. James B. Townsend, of New York._ In the spring the association was particularly active. Funds were raised with which to pur chase a kiln for the pottery work which Is being done at the art school. Dur ing Lent a series of charming talks was given by Mrs. Osgood on art, lead ing from the beginning of the early Grecian period to American contempo rary art. With the close of Lent preparations began for the presentation of the comic opera, which was given at the Grand In early May,- and which was a financial success.

Mrs. Ralph Van Landlngham, showed tho excellent management of the financial affairs of the asosclallon. The year was begun with .19 In the Ireasury, a fact which did not daunt the association lr^ the establishment Af Its art school, or prevent the holding of the annual exhibition.

Mr. Robert Alston and Mlsa Selene Armstrong, were succeeded by Mr. Clif ford Anderson and Miss Mary Klngs- bery. Mr. Alston’s faithful and fine Admin istration has made the successful future of. the association an assured fact, and no one Is better'fitted than Mr. Ander son to carry on the work.

The Art Association Is to be con gratulated upon the election of Miss Klngsbery as secretary.

Moore, corner Cohe and Walton streets, the Ladles’ Aux iliary to the Presbyterian Hospital will hold their bazaar.

TO THE PUBLIC m OPEN LETTER FOURTEEN of the thlrty-on* per. sons killed In the wrsck of the Mystic Shrlners' special train at Honda, Cal., on Saturday, May 11. were Insured against accidents In the Aetna Life In. surance Company, of Hartford, Conn. This Involve* a loss of tUO.COO, which Is the largest loss ever Incurred by a company under accident pollclee In any one disaster. The total amount which the Aetna LlfS had at risk on the lives of pas sengers on this train was at least $184,- 000, but of those insured with the Com pany other than the fourteen killed only one Is reported severely Injured. The amounts payable for deaths In this wreck are all DOUBLE THE AMOUNTS INSURED, and In FOUR cases they are TRIPLE THE AMOUNTS INSURED through the fact that the BENEFICIARIE8 were killed In the same disaster. This emphasises most strongly the enlarged scope of occliicni Insurance protection as fur nished by the Aetna Life. The fact that nearly ONE-HALF OF ALL WHO WERE KILLED carried their accident Insurance In tbe AETNA LIFE la striking evidence of the con fidence reposed In the Company by the Insuring public, and that confidence Is wisely so placed. It is only a LARGE COMPANY LIKE THE AETNA LIFE that can withstand such a calamity as this. If all of the persons, killed and Injured In this wreck had been Insured In the Aetna Life, the resultant claims would be paid Immediately on receipt of proof of death and without In the slightest degree Impairing the strength of the Company. The Aetna Life fur nishes absolute protection to those In sured In It. The above Is another evidence of the prompt attention shown by the Aetna Life, which Is so efficiently represented In Atlanta by Mr. Charles C. Thorn, 401 Equitable building. Reader, b* prudent. Insure now with him. ••• IN HONOR OF MI8S PLUMMER • AND MI83 8TEARNE8.
