COMPARES ITALIAN ART

Everywhere in Europe one finds

mere art schools. love of art, and art
in action? The speaker compared the
state Of affairs in the small towns Of
places by their art, TO Americas much
wider territory and population most
lacking in that direction.
Have we not themes enough?" asked
Bishop O'Conncll. "All Northern Italy
paints human life and all the range of
human life here suggests a subject n
for any canvas.
Nothing stimulates art so much as
noble local history, and surely no
country in the world is so rich in this
as Virginia. There is no need to seek
a subject at Marathon or Thcrmonpylae.
when everywhere at hand lie fields full
Of glory, awaiting only the brush to
paint them. 1t is art that Sloriaes.
Before Agamcmnon there were many
noble men in Greece, but all vanished
into oblivion because there was no
artist to immortalize them. 1t is genius

A student of school shall be eli
gible to be contestant of the district
in which the school is situated regard
less of the residence of the student.
The superintendents of schools Of
the respective cities, exempted villages
and counties may determine the man
ner in which the contestants in the
State Contest is chosen, but the follow
ing recommendations are made:
(a) That the contests be largely on
written lists.
(b) That two elimination contests
be held previous to the final contest.
l. The first elimination contest to be
held simultaneously in all schools of
the district, eliminating all of those
below a certain per cent.
2. The second elimination contest to
be an assembled contest at some CEN
trail point Of all students of the local
district, or city building who passed
the first preliminary contest, elimin-
alton again to be of all those below a
certain per cent.
8. The final contest to be an as
sembled contest of the ones who pass
ed the second elimination contest.
In planning the local contests have
in mind that in the State Contest there
will oe lists marked diacritically and
lists Of words spelled Correctly and
incorrectly" as we'll as words to spell
from oral pronunciation.
In diacritical or phonetic marking
the system used in Webster's diction-
aries will be assumed. The markings
will be adequate to settle beyond ques-
tion the pronunciation of the word and
will include it's accent.
The winner of each county, exempt
ed village and city contest mrst be GER
j., titled to the Superintendent of Public
Instruction by May 20, 1916 on form
to be furnished by him.
1t is believed that many firms and
individuals will take an interest in the.
local contest and furnish prizes to the
local winner. a
The success Of local contests, and to
certain extent Of the State Contest,
will depend upon the organizing en-
ergy Of the superintendents and the
interest taken by the teachers. Every
effort should be made to make the con-
tests fair and representative. It is
hoped no city or county will be willing
to be left out, and that an enthusiastic
interest in spelling and pronunciation
will prevade the schools of our state.

The second cash prize will be twenty

The third cash prize will be fifteen
dollars.
The fourth cash prize will be ten
dollars.
Besides these general prizes there
will be special prize to each of the
following:
To the best speller from city or ex
empted village district.
To the best speller from a county
school district.
To the best speller from high
school.
To the best speller from an elemen-
tary school.
These prizes will be specifically
stated at the time the program for the
contest is distributed. No individual
shall receive more than one prize in
the State Contest.
The winning of prizes will not be
determined by an oral contest, but en-
tirely by written contest, which will
consist of three parts:
(a) One hundred words to be pro-
nounced to the contestants, and to be
written by them. (These are to be
spelled without diacritical markings. }
(b) One hundred words printed phon
etically with phonetic spelling and
diacritical marks), to be presented to
the contestants and by them to be re-
written correctly spelled without the
marks)
(c) One hundred words, part of
which are spelled correctly and part of
which are incorrect, to be presented
in printed form to the contestants and
by them to be rewritten with the cor
rect spelling.
Each word of each list will count
one-third of one percent, the missing
OF any one Of the three hundred will
occasion the same loss (one-third of
one per cent.)
If there is tie it will be decided by
an additional written spelling contest.
The words used in the contest will
be those in the special list printed for
the purpose, copies of which will be
sent to all superintendets for distri-
button.
