ART SCHOOL HERE

For the purpose of lecturing to the
teachers of the local schools on the
principles of art and of arranging for
q summer art school here If the in
terest manifested is sufficient to JUS
tify such a course, Miss L. A. Mint

Pendleton today and will remain for
two weeks. This afternoon at 4 o.
clock she is meeting the grammar
school teachers and will deliver an
Principles of Drawing and How to
Draw from Nature"
Miss Mint is not an artist herself
and makes no pretentions of being
one. However, she does claim to have
a thorough kowledge OF its principles
and to be able to teach anyone to
draw. She has been associated with
the \. L. A. S. L. for 20 years and
comes with the highest recommenda-
tions to the city.
Miss Mint proposes to establish the
Oregon branch of her league here in
Pendleton. This done she would
conduct a two weeks summer school
in art each year. The course would
be given absolutely without cost and
the ouly condition Miss Mint makes
! is that she be assured 100 pupils. Her
course consists of eight lessons and
is supplemented by correspondence
/ work.
Supt. Landers of the public schools
/ has been acquainted with Miss Min
/ for ten years and, when he was SUI
| perintendent at The Dalles, she gave
/ her course in that city with highl!
| gratifying results, he states.
Miss Mint declares she will make
no attempt to arouse interest in he
proposition. 81 make the offer t
open a free schol and it rests will
the citizens of Pendleton as to wheth
er they wish to take advantage of it,
she said this morning.

cision reached by the school board,

igs to assist the little folks across
without danger. When inclemen
weather comes. the school board viii
