its new museum and the many
things for which it stands. She
has spent two summers in High
lauds, was a member of the orig
inal advisory committee for organ
izing the museum, and the plans
for "the building were sent to New
England for her approval. So after
all, Miss Bragg is not a stranger
to Highlands or to the musucm.
Her home for the summer will be
the Foreman residence in Linden

Clark Foreman.
The museum is to be devoted
to local art, and particularly to
building up the exhibition of the
