THE SEARCHLIGHT 3 VISIT TO THE ART G J.TT Y By Lorno Johnston Sach year tho Manitoba Society of Artists presents an exhibition of paintings, prints and drawings by its members and by outside contribu¬ ting artists whoso works have passed a selection coimittee appointed by tho society ' s executive. Since this is tho senior society of Manitoba, its ' ' show ' usually contains the best work of the better artists. This year four classes wore given the opportunity of seeing the pictures displayed, 8A, 8B, 9A, 9B. My favorite landscape painting.in the Art Uali ary is End of the Day painted by C.F. Ashmore. It is a water color ainting of the end of a day after a hard day’s work on the farm. The :mer is unhitching four tired horses from a plough in a field, and nor. by a little colt is nibbling grass. Among the ninety-seven pictures on display, t re were sovoral portraits, A member of the Manitoba Society of Art s ' ts, Jean Eyden, pro¬ duced a splendid water color portrait of a smiling Id man, Mr. Kendal. You ' ve probably seen Mr. Kendal selling newspapers n the corner of Portage and Main in front of Child ' s Restaurant. H. is an old short man with a curly white beard. The artist, in his portrait, reveals the Santa Claus features of Mr. Kendal. I was very pleased to find a pointing by Margaret Milne, our art instructor while Mr. Wolfb was in England last year, it was called ’’Floor of the Forest , 1 It was’a pen and crayon drawing shewing mushrocaus, ' different kinds of plants and the shrubs growing on tho floor of the forest, THE JOY OF BEING AN EDITOR Adapted by Fred Roy Getting out the Searchlight is no picnic.

Well, wo didll ’ FATHER: ' And what did you learn at school today? TONY: ’7, learned to say ’Yes, sir ' and’No, sir’ and ' Yes, ma’am’ and ’No, ma’am.’ FATHER (greatly pleased): You did? TONY: Yep. ’
