"The Necessity of Integrity in Art"

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Mr. F. Edwin Elwell, one of America's foremost sculptors, delivered a very interesting and instructive lecture in Robinson Hall last evening on "The Necessity of Integrity in Art."

In his lecture, Mr. Elwell said that just as the presence of integrity in man makes for permanent value of character, so, too, integrity in art tends to preserve it. "The necessity for integrity in art is two-fold,--it establishes a model for individual character and leaves an unblemished record of the achievements of a people who have lived to some purpose."

In conclusion the lecturer remarked that the fight against the contract artists was gradually being won after a struggle lasting twenty years, and that finally the advocates of integrity in art were being heard.
