£ a Q P d 0 P ART llp] aim of the Art course in High School is practical hut mainly to devel()])e an appreciation of Art and to develope good ideas in design and colors, ' fhere ar e so many beautiful things about us that we do not see and ai)preciate. When we have developed this sense of apj)reeiation life is so mueh more to us and we get so much more out of it. At the beginning of school we had two classes. Thej ' consisted mostly of Freshmen and Sophomores. They worked hard and on October 15 gave a Japanese Hazaar. The halls were decorated with Japanese cherry branches, ])arasols and pictuirs. The girls of the class were dressed in Japanese kimonas, fans and slippers. They sold pictures and candle shades. Japan Tea and wafers were served. With the jirofits they bought pictures to decorate the halls. They arc co|)ics from famous ai ' tists and certainly add to the beauty of the building. Later on they took uj) pose work and designing from nature and life. Now they are doing some cartooning. Some of the plays and the Bazaar were advertised by means of posters. At Christmas and Hallowe’en j)osters were made. The class developed cro.ss-stitch designs from drawings they did from animals. The recognized value of practical drawing is that it leads children to the study of ob.iects with which they come in contact from day to day and show them that drawing is not an isolated study but one that can be put to practical iise. Drawing opens the eye to a new range of vision and trains the power of analysis, enabling one to resolve things into their primal elements, and to ob- serve from different points of view. It is given the most valuable space in daily newspapers and in leading magazines, whether employed to interest, to instruct, or to amuse. It produces the pleasing effects in wall paper and in decorated china, and in the plainest rugs and the most gorgeous tapestries. It sketches the outlines of the daintiest lace, whether intended for a baby’s cap or the most elaborate costume. It speaks to the children from the black-board of every school room and translates vagueness into obvious truth. It is employed to design a lady’s brooch or to plan a battle ship, to show the graceful lines of a simple bungalow or the harmonious proportions of an imposing mansion. It details the specifications of every contract, whether to build a picket fence or to construct a steel bridge ; whether to lay a water main or to dig the Panama canal. Jli.ss Bracken has taken a great deal of interest and worked hard for the students in trying to produce the results obtained. iMILDKED TABBERT Q 27 (T =-=4
