Considerable interest has been shown among a number of prominent Portland women In sending examples of primitive art to the Lyceum (women's) Club, of Berlin, where an International exhibition of popular art Is to be held tn January.

Mrs. Harriet K. McArthur. Mrs. I. N. Fleiachner and Mrs. J. B. Mont gomery. Besides Indian curios there will be a few examples of hand-weaving " and i quilts.
