The Czechoslovak Review/Volume 4/Los Angeles takes notice of Czechoslovaks
LOS ANGELES TAKES NOTICE OF CZECHOSLOVAKS.
Mrs. Clara V. Winlow, author of several books dealing with the Czechoslovaks, has been placed in charge of Foreign Extension Work of the Public Library of Los Angeles. The object of her work is to bring about a broad and friendly understanding and sympathy between the American and foreign groups in the city. Her program includes talks at foreign societies in foreign languages, and addresses in English on the art, literature and music of foreign countries; exhibits showing something of the wonderful folk art inheritance that foreigners bring to this country will be a feature of her work.
Her first accomplishment in this line is the exhibit of sixty etchings of a Czech artist of New York, J. C. Vondrouš, loaned by Dr. Henry J. John who is temporarily in California. While these etchings were on exhibit, Dr. John gave a talk to a large audience in the library auditorium on the problems confronting the foreign born on coming to this country. A collection of Czech and Slovak books will be added to the Los Angeles library’s collections of foreign literature.
