eXtinguish fire which started from rats
nests in the partition in the attic The
fire had gotten under good Roadway. but
it was under control soon. Several of
the timbers in the room were badly

the attic. The damage probably will

| In connection with their study of An
drea Del Sarto, the junior English classes
went to the Episcopal church yesterday
morning to see the fine reproduction by
1 Domihi of Del Sarto's famous painting,
| The Holy Family BY very interesting
! explanation of the artistic values of the
picture Miss Pauline Fisher brought to
the pupils attention many things that
the average person would not see in this
beautiful painting, such as the splendid
| treatment of light and shadows, the yari-
Gus ways in which the figures of mother
and child are made the center of interest,
and the effective setting off of light and
dark colors by his treatment of the sky
back ground. Especially interesting to
the class was the fact that in this Ma
donna they saw portrayed the beauty of
Lucrezia, the wife of Andrea Del Sarto,
about whom they had read much in
Browning's poem. In this picture, too,
they found illustrated the very merits
and defects of Del Sarto's art which
Browning explains in his study of the
artist.
