End of the Season of ISSS-The Holiday
Recess.
The Sacramento School of Design, con-
Quoted under the auspices of the California
Museum Association in the city's E. B.
Crockett Art Gallery, closed its fall term
and the season of 1883 Saturday afternoon.
thus completing its third year. Ii has been
customary for Instructor Jackson TO hold
an exhibition Of such work of the pupils
as he deems best TO thus distinguish at the
close OF each fall term. But as the Ladies'
Museum Association, having now 1873
members, is actively engaged in arranging
a general loan exhibition in aid of the GEN
eral work of the California Museum Asso-
citation, which is TO be held in February
next, Mr.. Jackson has determined not TO
make the School of Design exhibit until
then, and to add ii to the aid exhibition.
He proposes also to ask the Directory 10
change the opening and closing of the
school year so that its commencement ex-
ercises will not come on in the holiday,sea-
son. The work of the pupils of 1888 has
been very gratlfylng-so much progress has
been made that the school is very anxious
for the exhibition, confident of ability
to stand criticism, and that the exhibits
Will prove better than any yet made either
on commencement occasions or at the State
FAR. The instructor expresses his entire
willingness TO exhibit the pupils work side
by side with that of pupils who have stud
led the same length of time in the San
Francisco School of Design. The most
progress of the year has been made in stud
les from nature-general outdoor study.
But free hand drawing from cards, painting

crayon and oil have been prosecuted in ali
their stages during the year. With the
reopening of the school January I'd new
departure will be made, which testifies to
the progress made, and will stimulate pu-
pills 10 renewed exertion, and begin to give
them some returns from work for their
sketch fund, or their personal gain.
The school will announce lis read
mess, in composition, to furnish
designs as desired for commercial
purposes Thus it will, on request, furnish
number of designs interpreting a subject,
or expressing the desire of the patron, for
letter or bili-heads, labels, trade marks, il
Illuminated sheets, title pages, and book
covers, menu or other cards, diplomas, GER
tihcates, or any other use into which de-
signing enters. The patron can choose
from the dozen or more designs that will
be offered, and for the successful one paw
moderate fee. He will thus at once help
the school by encouraging the pupils and
help himself by having his design carried
out 10 suit his taste. Experiments already
made in this direction have been so far
successful as to warrant enlargement with
the opening of the school in January The
life study room walls ara now quite filled
with the work of the pupils for 1888, but
as it is 10 be exhibited regularly in Feb
