Of Primitive Women" at Art Club.

Mrs. Emma Shaw Colcleugh of this city
was the charming speaker before the
members Of the Providence Art club and
guests at their regular Ladies After
noon" yesterday.
Mrs. Colcleugh's subject was Arts and
Crafts OF Primitive Women" and she
brought TO It such fund of information
and a wealth Of anecdote and story gath
cred in her travels I'm unbeaten paths In
all parts of the world as TO delight her
hearers and 20 render tho lecture one Of
the best ever given at the Art club.
Moreover the lecture was admirably IL
mstrated by various articles, the handi-
craft OF the peoples or whom she spoke.
BY way OF Introduction she said that
her treatment Of the subject must he
somewhat superficial for lack OF time.
The first topic considered was the great
debt ~ewed by the civilized penple OF the
world TO the so-called primitive people
or savsges. An interesting omparisbn
was shown or all the industries OF the
earlier Inhabitants OF the different parts
Of the globe going back 60 the earliest
efforts of primitive women 10 provide for
themselves. Little by little was shown
the growing interest, generation followed
generation. until today woman has won
industry OF the world. and yet Il Is 10 the
aboriginal women we must pay our tri-
butte 20 what We are today.
Continuing. Mrs. Colcleugh took up bas-
kerry. the industry which is not only
connected with the textile arts. but with
pottery as we'll. She then explained
that the weaving from the Matte work
OF prehistoric days 20 the finished pro-
ducts OF today was due 10 the aboriginal
woman.
Continuing. Mrs. Colcleugh described at
length the well known bark cloth OF the
Polynes!ans and the quill weaving com
mon TO the Mackenzie river. together
with the Narvalo. chile.t and Maori art
products.
The history OF fea ther. needle and bead
work was next taken up and the possi-
blllties OF utilizing the latter for ccclosl-
estical embroidery described.
Pottery was traced from its origin as
cited by chronological experts through va
rious gradations. 20 the artistic results
achieved by modern workers.
In closing her talk regret was expressed
that many OF the industries must. from

Throughout the west railroad con-

Idaho the indications OF any ex-

are not yet apparent. 1t is more
than probable, however, that with
the immense irrigation propositions
which are under way along Snake
