Favors Industrial Art School.

At the session yesterday afternoon the
expansion of the National Gallery of Art
as an adjunct of the Smithsonian Insttu-
ton and the establishment of a school
Of Industrial art in Washington were ad-
vocated by Charles d. Walcott. secretary
Of the Smithsonian Institution. His views
are published elsewhere in The Star.
Advertising designs were severely ar
raigned for lack of artistic merit by
Frank Alvah Parsons. director of the
New York School of Fine and Applied
Arts. A national school of industrial
arts. to be established in the capital, was
advocated also by Leslie w. Miller, prin-
cipal of the Pennsylvania Museum School
of Industrial Art.
The existing Arts and Crafts School of
Washington as the fitting foundation for
national school of industrial arts was
suggested by II. B. +. Macfarland, for
mer District Commissioner. Plans for
this school are to be put into the hands
of a committee, which will be named by
President Hutchinson.
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas Nelson Page
were the hosts Of the delegates last night.
Their home at 1859 r street was the
scene of a brilliant reception.

struck by C. F.. Graves. treasurer Of the
club. who outlined the objects of the or
ganization. He made an earnest appeal
for the members of the club to assist in
the movement for higher standard of

be attained he said. by the press wedding
out all offensive advertisements and ac-
cepting none that is not truthful
Mr.. Graves said the efforts of the cluh
would be futile unless the press lent its
cooperation in banishing harmful adj
vertisements.

cause of the reckless operation Of auto
mobiles on the county's thoroughfares.
The states attorney and Sheriff Welt
held a conference yesterday. and it is I'M
derstood that the sheriff was instructed to
redouble his efforts toward enforcing the
automobile laws and to arrest all per-
sons who run their machines in excess
of the legal speed limit, all who fail to
have license tags displayed on the fronts
