 The mediums will be pencil crayon and water color. Some drawings in charcoal will be executed also. The theory of color is carefully studie1. Drawings in this medium are always source of great pleasure to the ar. students. The study and matching of interesting cOlOrs and the development of fine color schemes for designs from a part of this work: the aim being to teach good appreciation of fine col or combinations Water colors are the most practical medium for tEis work: the results obtained, artistically con- sidered, are more satisfactory than those of crayon and other mediums.
 During the winter months pictorial drawing is studied, that is. drawings of familiar objects. groups of still-iifc and famous landscapes Special at tention is given all the type solids as they form basis for object drawing. Pencil and colored crayons furnish a desirable medium for the expression of the texture of objects, back grounds and foregrounds. Tn the spring the subjects of design is taken up. Some thing practical is created. a vase form. the decoration for a basket, or a book cover In connection with this illus trative line of art the lives and pie lures of noted artists are studied &s a direct result of this work the student soon learns to appreciate the beauti- ful things in art, and to form liking for one of the artists whose work ap- peals to him the mast strongly.
