An Interesting Exhibit of the Prang
System in Allegheny.
INSTITUTES FOR THE TEACHERS.
Col. Parker. Dr.. James MacAlister and
Hon. Henry Houck to Speak.
COOKING AND DRESS CUTTING IDEAS

Drawing in the Allegheny schools is
reaching quite standard. The new sys-
tenn, the Prang, was introduced over year
ago, and the public, and the teachers as well,
have had no occasion heretofore to Judge of
the system in it's completeness. Next
week, however, there will be an exhibit of
drawing, which will afford them an oppor-
tpnity of studying and appreciating the
system. From 8 to every evening this
week, also on Saturday morning, the draw
ing exhibit will be open for inspection at
the Allegheny High School. 1t was orig
inally prepared for the Bedford State
Teachers Association held last July.
The course includes "made" work, such
as pocketbooks, music rolls and all varieties
of boxes, ETC. Ex-Governor Beaver when
he saw the exhibit at Bedford was pleased
with the "made" work, and said that the
trouble with most systems is that this part
of the work looks as if the children simply
made it, but in the case of the Allie
gheny exhibit it looked as if the
pupils thought of what they were
quest the collection of drawings was
sent to the National Summer School at
Glenn Falls, New York 1t shows the grad
ual development of the system which in
cludes the work of eight years, first the con-
struction work, then the representative
work, and lastly the decorative. Miss Seeg
miller, the Drawing Superintendent of the
Allegheny Schools, has had an offer to go to
Brooklyn to be an assistant supervisor of
drawing there.
CARDS FOR THE INSTITUTES.
The institute season for the Pittsburg
teachers will open next Friday evening, and
Superintendent Luckey has secured for the
opening three gentlemen who occupy very
eminent places in the educational world.
They are Colonel F. H. Parker, of the Cook
County Normal School, of "Quincy method
fame, DR.. James MacAllister, who resigned
the superintendency Of the Philadelphia
schools to take charge of the Drexel Insti-
tute at Philadelphia, at salary of $40, 1000,
and Hon. Henry Houck, Deputy Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction, of Harris
burg.
These gentlemen are all great advocates
of industrial education and their lectures
will likely be on this subject. They will
visit the Sloyd School, and will probably
give expression on Pittsburg's step toward
industrial training. There will be two
sessions, one next Friday evening at 7:45 in
the First Presbyterian Church on Wood
street, to which the public will be invited,
and on Saturday morning at $50 in the
same building.
The teachers will receive complimentary
tickets as usual for the evening lecture.

NEWS FOR LOVERS OF THE ART DIVINE

The Board of Directors of the Art Society
met last Thursday and blocked out an &C
tive plan Of campaign for the first half of
the season. 1t was determined to hold the
opening reception-the 16Sth-on next Fri
day evening, when Mr. Homer Moore will
give an informal lecture or talk on the sub
ject of Musical Expression in Singing. Mr..
Moore will illustrate his remarks by sing
ing half dozen representative selections,
-anfong them an aria from Mercadante's
'Zaire." Gounod's song, 'There Is a Green
Hill Far Away" the Evening Star" ro-
mama from 'Tannhaeuser," TetrGnund's
accusation of Elsa from sJohengrin" and
Sig'na'ad'S Love Song from "Die Walkuere.
1t is proposed to give four other recep-
tions before the holidays. One of these
Will be rendered to Mr.. Martin B. Leisser,
the well-known Pittsburg artist, who has
just returned from long residence
in Munich. A third evening will be de-
voted, the directors expect, to an
art lecture from prominent local divine;
though that cannot yet be announced with
certainty. Another reception will be taken
up with a miscellaneous musical pro-
gramme, giving an opportunity to hear
some of the artists that have lately located
here. The fifth reception of the season, in
tlon devoted to the best work Of our local
painters.
1t is pleasant to note that the prospects of
this old and respected organization were
never brighter, either as regards the pleasure
and profit of its own members or its useful
ness in other and more public-spirited di-
rections. The Art Society is very much
alive.
