The Group of Seven exhibition in 1920 first gave the Group its name and was the first occasion at which the seven artists exhibited before the public as a group dedicated to presenting a specific vision' of the landscape of Canada. The original exhibition met with little reaction from the Canadian public and the group's work was only finally accorded its due several years later, when critics at the British Empire Exhibition in ' London, England, in 1924, generously praised its work. The Group of Seven, 1920 exhibition includes 104 works from 18 lenders by all the members of the Group: Frank Reviewed by G. J.

But how weelld We react if suddenly we were thrust into situation where we were eurrnunded by black people who , are angered by centuries of discrimination? Would we really live up to our high ideals or would we cringe and behave just as despicably as those who are responsible for the persecution Of the Negroes in the USA? I wonder. I didn't like what I saw in myself that evening I was exposed to some of the ugly facts -of life. I was appalled by my behaviour and powerless to change it. So this week I take my hat What kind of a Pereoe ani really? That's the. elueatiort asking Myself these days. A Week or so ago I was in the position for about one hour of being shoulder to shoulder with some very unfortunate people. Not only were these souls lacking in mentality and normal appearance, they were:obviously living in a• situation which could be termed less than adequate by today's standards. Ai I sat there with them? I felt my skin begin to•crawl just .a little at the sight of my companions. I was sickened, not so much by their presence as by my own high-hatted attitude. I have always ,considered myself a very tolerant person, someone who doesn't put on any airs or have any grand delusions about self. But sitting there in the quiet of that room, began to see myself for what I really am—it bigot and a snob. And try as I would to shake these thoughts that somehow' I was just a little better than these wretched people, I just couldn't relax and feel at home or at ease with them. That night when I arrived home I was ashamed of myself. I had been face to face with an opportunity to express my Christian faith by a simple act of brotherly love and I had failed Miserably. My prayers that night and every night since have included a petition for God to grant to me the ability to have compassion on others whatever their lot in life. I also threw in a few lines about how grateful I am to be as physically and mentally whole as the majority of the human race. I began to understand racial discrimination and how it spreads. People like me sit beside their walnut television sets in an all-white, neighborhood that is free from litter and clutter, lined _with shade trees and spread with green grass carpets.
